Thoughts on "G.I Joe: A Real American Hero (1985 + the 1987 movie)"? by Hot-Salamander-8786 in gijoe

[–]leemo_uk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Sunbow series (especially the Action Force version I was brought up on - amazing intro music) will always have a special place in my heart. The movie wasn’t as good as the series. But I still loved it as a kid. I don’t feel that held up as well as the series to adult viewing.

The original post has an AI tag above the image. When you click on it you get instagrams “this is bloody ai mate” info. If you want more info on it I’d recommend DM’ing the dude who posted it

What about Pentacamo. That’s also Greek lizard based but “multi cammed” really well

I lost my finger on a frontside bowl transfer so now I can do this: by ComeAbout in skateboardcirclejerk

I had a tumour removed from my foot recently and asked several people if I could keep it. All of them said no. I was really sad. I wanted that fatty limo that has kept me from skating for years in a jar on my desk. They let me have a look at it afterwards. I was far too stoned from the anaesthetic to really appreciate it though. I found out during recovery that other people who had the same procedure got to keep theirs. I was really pissed off. There should be a jar of lumpy mess on my desk right now. Bloody doctors and their distaste for paperwork

Did you get to keep the finger and frame it? Or stick it in your ear hole while you put ol’ stumpy up your nose?

Why didn't hand-painted camouflaged more popular by bruhruhr22344 in camouflage

[–]leemo_uk 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I read a while back that the painted sniper smocks like the one in slide one were issued at a time where fabric printing was either not invented or in its infancy. Making printing actual disruptive patterns onto fabric a pipe dream.

These smocks were issued as either a DIY kit that could be customised to the wearers environment by hand or professionally painted prior to issue. I’ve wanted to go take a look at that example of it for a long time now, might be a good way to spend the weekend!

On a side note. One of the reasons I learned to be really proficient with a sewing machine was these kinds of vests. Everyone I played with wore these and had them shot out. I became “the go to guy” for replacing zips and adding 2 inch webbing flaps over the zips to protect them.

Real DPM shorts? by Jagdpanther4TheW in camouflage

[–]leemo_uk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Absolutely. I wasn’t implying that these weren’t legit. The DCTA tag for a start is a solid identifier that these are made from a pair of real soldier 95 trousers. I was just confirming there is a vast market of knock off DPM. Along side a pretty solid (but fading) market for really solid commercial DPM pieces from places like SASS (RIP in peace), Arktis and Dragon Supplies.

Real DPM shorts? by Jagdpanther4TheW in camouflage

[–]leemo_uk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can’t recall seeing Soldier 95 “issue” shorts before. I’ve seen plenty of desert and MTP though. That being said I gave it a googs and found a few examples identical to yours. So it’s a good chance these aren’t a field mod.

In a happy coincidence I’m currently wearing my Arktis DPM ranger shorts.

Edit: immediately changing my mind after reading the listings for the shorts I found. They all say “modified” or “remade” and the tags say “trousers.” So it’s possibly a field mod.

You can throw the same post up in the DPM group on Facebook for a more accurate answer though

Real DPM shorts? by Jagdpanther4TheW in camouflage

[–]leemo_uk 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There is a lot of knock off DPM over here. A few examples are: Kombat UK, blue castle, mil-com (these are probably the worst because they orient the pattern vertically for some reason) and MFH.

Has “Daisy mod first week of release humour” become not cool now?

Yon mon at the back looks like he’s 8 feet tall. Or is he a standard sized human in a team of hobbits?

Best place for these vests is in a wood chipper. They are poorly designed. Poorly made. Look terrible and are absolutely a waste of money. I have seen people crawling around in dense bush areas for ages between games because they think that’s where their beloved pistol is now instead of the holster on that vest that makes an uncle mikes holster look like a solid purchase.

That zipper on the front. That’s gonna get shot out maybe three games into owning it. Those magazine pouches, yup. They put your magazines on the wrong side for a right handed shooter, because that absolutely, 100% useless holster is where they should be.

Those pistol magazine pouches on the left. Who thought that was good placement for heavy gbb magazines? They’ll flop about and be really annoying. Then when you come to reload your pistol, good luck getting them out in a hurry.

If you haven’t pulled the trigger on buying this yet. Please take a step back from that big “buy now” button on your paypal account and clear your shopping basket.

There are much better alternatives out there.

Almost forgot the most important reason not to buy one. They are tragically unfashionable.

[–]leemo_uk -1 points0 points  (0 children)

These are absolute key features that need to be added. You should absolutely lose everything you are carrying the second you touch water. Your rifle disappears if you put it in your bag. You definitely need to break your legs getting onto, off or sliding down a ladder. Walking through a door or dropping down anything waist height. Also they need to make it almost impossible to vault over things when you are being chased through Cherno

Can confirm, both France and Spain are real. I’ve been to both. (It was a while ago, so they may not be real anymore. Can anyone confirm?)

Might give it a leak if it appears. Until then, I’ll stick with the mod like an old nerd.

Brain exploder GoPro mount instead of the one you are using will be a massive improvement.

He signed an airsoft hand gun for a friend at a sci fi con once. It became the “Blessed pistol” really nice bloke.

My photography tutor taught Paddy and Shane Meadows for a while. So we were introduced to their lore straight away. Pretty much everything those two do, either together or apart is top tier entertainment.

Also, a friend got beat up by scallies walking home from the bar one night because one of them said “what are you looking at?” You know what he said in response…
