Multi-Cam

















this multi cam uniform cost me around 100 dollars including the Boony hat and ACU Pants and shirt. the vest i got separately for about 24 dollars. this uniform was made by Propper Public safety. muli cam is state of the art and the pattern is made by Cry industries. no matter which environment you enter the pattern conceals you. so i can virtually go from urban to jungle to desert without changing my uniform. i absolutely love it!


on the down side to this particular uniform is the Velcro, Velcro makes noise when you use it and every single pocket excluding the butt pockets on the pants are velcro... i know its quicker than using buttons but id rather have buttons on the pockets that i use more often. also the quality of the Velcro seems to be lacking durability. as everyone knows velco eventually wears out after prolonged usage. and with the cost of the uniform id expect better quality. but im not worried about the Velcro on the arms where the patches and flags go because i wont be taking items on and off as much.

some other things i dislike are, the zipper is plastic so im weighting for that to break...and there is the lack of Velcro for name tapes which i really needed...and a lack of Velcro for the rank so ive simply put pins on the hat and jacket. the last thing Ive noticed is that when the uniform rubs together it makes the noise i can only describe as those running pants that are plastic rubbing together. other than that though the uniform is excellent and im willing to deal with the ups and downs of it because all together the pros outweigh the cons and the stitching seems to be great so i know it will last a long time.

Tornado airsoft grenade


the Tornado airsoft grenade made by AI (Airsoft Innovations) is very unique...it has a large blast radius that is achieved by using 2 holes on each side of the grenade, these are loaded with 100 BBs each. when the grenade goes off it spins which effectively scatters the BBs efficiently. the grenade is filled with green gas or propane and then the timer is set either for 1.5 or 3 seconds. i think this is a great addition to our teams gear
