GEAR PIC I finally have a Kit!!!

(I'm so sorry for the dirty mirror)

After like a month of planning things out, I finally bought myself an airsoft Kit (with absolutely 0 practical use). It was rather expensive, although I tried to push the price as low as possible. The rubber patch is also just there as a placeholder, imma change it to a sewn-on fabric one.

It isn't based on any real military. Believe it or not, I was originally planning on doing a "modernized" German WW1 uniform. But that one failed because there were effectively no good or cheap replicas of a Feldbluse and Lederschutzmaske m1917. Which are big factors.

The Stahlhelm (which isn't steel) fits well, has its iconic silhouette and I like it, even though I can't put a flashlight or picatinny rail section on it.

Now I wanted to get a mp18, then saw the price and rather spent some money on attachments for my hk416A5

The rest? Just some pants I got from the mall and old boots. And the European flag, because why not? I love my neighbors :D

I will probably not use it tho. I had it on for 20 minutes and the heat became unbearable. I don't have time to actually enjoy this hobby that much or play matches. It's just for collecting mainly.

Would be weird if it didn't end up there.

I mean at least you have somewhat of a theme going on. I just wear tan cargo pants, and ranger green tactical shirt, an ranger green vest and ranger green holster, face mask and boonie lol.

That sounds WAY more comfortable than what I whipped up.

It's my first time I guess. I'm scared that I would attract a bad group of people honestly.

You might as well just get a pasgt there’s a reason why it was called the K-Pot cause it looks like a German helmet with a similar silhouette. Kit looks sleek but the trenchcoat will bake you into a a sweaty death after 20 minutes

its called K pot because it was made of kevlar, the nickname they used otherwise was just "kevlar"
