Switch out the Tru-Spec's for issue MARPAT, it's easily found on Ebay.

Look into a Pantac/Flyye land CIRAS, MBSS, or RRV. Also, issue boots can be found on Ebay or you can hunt them down on retail websites. VT Army & Navy sells Belleville 550ST's for $53.

This link is definitely a great start.

For your vest, it depends if it's an accurate replica of the MBSS or not. I saw lots of stuff being called "MBSS" while it was nothing like it.

*EDIT* I read why I shouldn't use Tru-Spec.

The vest is defenitely not the CB the flyye pouches are, that I can tell, but colour matching isint a HUGE concern for me. Ill get some pictures up soon so you can see.

Btw, thanks for the link!

DaRkCoMmAnDo · November 8th, 2010, 22:37

Stupid question, how can I tell if its issued? Does issued have the tag with the USMC symbol and says made by propper international?

Hate to beat a dead horse Conker, but here's a crop of that pic I saw of the MARSOC Marine with the "FR Gloves".

Conker · November 20th, 2010, 20:22

With a COMTAC & MBITR, would be a U94 be right?

Brakoo · November 20th, 2010, 20:49

I've seen pretty much all kind of PTT being used but the U94 being one of them. Personally if my setup allowed it I'd probably get the U94 but I can't.

Found a pretty cool pic and decided to share it:

Hiking boots + MARPAT + Recon ILBE + PCU is freakin' sweet.

JohnGol10 · December 2nd, 2010, 16:01

Thanks Vince, no problem.

That's a weird pic with the Mp9 though. Would be nice to see it in some combat pics though.

I believe this picture is of a Navy Corpsman, I'm not 100% sure. I just recall seeing it somewhere.
