  1. If anybody is interested in it,the RAF cap can go.
  2. Both straps are the correct Arctic type. If anyone has an Arctic frame and fancies the challenge of re fitting this pack I have no use for it as have a complete one.
  3. Will try and dig them out but pretty sure I have posted them up on here a few months back.
  4. I have a pair of the matching trs and was also wondering if issue??
  5. On a similar note regarding modified hoods,somewhere I have a DPM 68 Patt hood that has had fur material sewn to the inside.
  6. As I am not greedy and dont need 2 of these if anybody is interested I may possibly be tempted to sell one of these(not sure which one yet) so am open to offers-Thanks
  7. As has been said about Hogspear before,yes he has a constant steady supply of stuff,some very very rare and exotic which you would expect to go for big money but even his run of the mill bog std items go for 2,3,4 times their realistic values,which for him as a seller he isnt going to complain I guess!!
  8. Anybody please know which countries wings these are and also just found in one of the pockets these coloured wings as well.
  9. Was going to ask regarding the "worms" myself but as if as stated it was used some years back then it wouldnt be current kit I guess?
  10. Hi, sorry I've been a little while in replying, had to do abit of digging, your helmet belonged to an SAS Team Medic called "Seth" It was worn in several live close quarter contacts with baddies in Afghan some years back while he was on Taskforce Dagger Regards
  11. Have asked the previous owner for any history/info behind the helmet but no reply as yet.
  12. All I know is the ceramic plates are US made but the cover is British made and slightly different to the US one.
  13. Knew about the US version Paul(have one somewhere I bought around 15 years ago in its original issue box) but not heard of or seen a Brit made one before.
  14. Any ideas who,where and what period one of these would have been worn please? The plates are US made and dated 1970 but cannot find any date on the vest itself. Thanks
  15. Knew that some soldiers dyed their own clothing at one stage but this looks to have been factory dyed/made this way?
  16. Looks like there was something glued to one side at one stage.
  17. Any ideas(will post some pics when I can). Recently got a pair of what seem to be down filled mitts with an inflatable wrist section. A few markings but no dates etc. Colour is either a blue(Navy?) or Blue/Grey(RAF?). These sound familiar to anybody? Many Thanks
  18. Before you do rush in and order from WPG please factor in the possibility of getting hammered buy various charges/duties which wont be cheap. Not trying to put you off in any way just wanted to(incase you werent already)make you aware of the nasty charges.
  19. 99.9% of everything I buy is from Ebay,most times get outbid by you guys on here I bet;)
  20. Not sure which Greek ones youve seen but the ones Ive had in the past have all been to 37Patt and in various shades ranging from green to brown and have been dead ringers for the Canuk colour,main giveaway being only 1 hook to close the collar. I do from time to time see a Greek blouse with exposed pocket buttons which you may be referring to? Dutch ones like the Greek ones can vary in colour but the ones I have owned werent as green as the Greek ones.
  21. Depending on what size you are you can buy original blouses cheaper than you can repros but as for the trs you will have to go repro Im afraid. Or if on a budget check out the post war Greek and Dutch BDs.
