■ FACE MASK<br />
Nuprol Mesh Face Mask with FMA Goggle Swivels.<br />
I’m the idiot the team uses as a breacher. That also<br />
means I get shot a lot. Not wanting to loose my pearly<br />
whites I picked up a mesh facemask. I removed the original<br />
straps and attached it to the Goggle Swivels for my helmet.<br />
This means that I have a quick detach mask for CQB and<br />
seeing as the SAS have been seen recently wearing them it<br />
can’t be a bad idea.<br />
■ GLOVES<br />
Mechanix Classic Coyote Brown gloves. I’m a big fan of<br />
these gloves. Thick enough to take the sting out of getting<br />
shot in the finger whilst being thin enough to manipulate<br />
things. I don’t really notice wearing them which works for<br />
me. Coyote works with my team Flecktarn and my personal<br />
Russian kit too.<br />
■ UNIFORM<br />
Helikon Flecktarn BDU. The team wears Flecktarn as camo.<br />
It works with our local sites and it’s not very common<br />
making it easy to not shoot your mates ‘accidentally’. The<br />
Helikon gear looked good and came in at a very affordable<br />
price. I also play in Russian VSR-93 and a BARS Gorka 3.<br />
■ BELT ORDER<br />
Warrior PLB Battle Belt with Low Profile suspenders. +<br />
ESSTAC mag pouches, Karrimor SF Folding Dump Pouch,<br />
SSO Medic Pouch, HW BFG holder, G-Code Optimal Drop<br />
Holster Mount, HW Glock 17 Holster and Leatherman<br />
Supertool. This has the base belt in ATACS-FG with a mix<br />
of OD and Coyote pouches. I’m a big fan of this belt. It has<br />
exactly what I want on it which is great. I’m most pleased<br />
with the custom Kydex Glock Holster by HW Holsters. I carry<br />
a First Aid Kit with a pressure bandage, combat gauze and<br />
a CAT tourniquet.<br />
■ CHEST RIG<br />
SPLAV M23 Pioneer Chest Rig. A Russian bit of kit that I<br />
adore. I wanted one of these for many years but couldn’t<br />
get one at a decent price. Eventually this game along. It has<br />
seen on pouches so not as flexible as some more modern<br />
versions. It’s light and comfortable and can happily take as<br />
much gear as is needed for a days pew pew.<br />
■ BOOTS<br />
LOWA Mountain GTX Boots. Amazing boots that are<br />
waterproof. I’ve stood in many a stream or puddle with<br />
no trouble. They are not cheap but this pair has lasted 12<br />
years now! I got them as I have dodgy ankles from rugby<br />
and skydiving and needed a lot of support. They’ll need a<br />
resolve sooner than later but the uppers are going strong.<br />
■ PRIMARY WEAPON<br />
LCT TK104NV + Magpul Furniture, PTS US Palm pistol grip,<br />
Prometheus 6.03 Barrel, GATES Warfet. Tough as old boots.<br />
This is a full steel AEG. I imported the Magpul Foregrip and<br />
furniture. The Mosfet is set up for trigger response on semi<br />
and battery protection as I run LiPo batteries. It has a shiny<br />
barrel and I flat hopped it for extra range. It has excellent<br />
range and accuracy and great to use.<br />
■ PISTOL<br />
WE G17 + polished slide, tritium night sights, Surefire X300<br />
light, Angry Gun magwell and adjustable trigger. A pretty<br />
standard WE Glock replica. I haven’t changed any of the<br />
internals other than the trigger. All the bits that move have<br />
been polished to give a nicer trigger pull. It goes pew when<br />
you pull the trigger which is about all I want from a back up!<br />
