    PLCE Bergan mods?

    If you fancy having a crack at it yourself, then go for it. Otherwise, to be honest, for the money that you would likely need to spend to get a bergen tailored, you would probably be better off splashing equivalent (or less) cash on a surplus dutch army (lowe alpine copy) saracen or similar...

    Cheap Action Camera

    coincidentally i purchased one of these the other week. First impressions are rather good actually, and it maintained a strong wifi signal to my phone allowing me to view the image it was seeing a few rooms away. Relatively crisp and clear image, and the quality of the accessories (various...

    How useful are reviews

    I do find so called 'professional reviews' quite useful - but i usually pay no attention to what the author has said or their opinion, but rather i find the fact there are often a number of additional photos of the kit beyond the standard company marketing shots. I can then review the pictures...

    British Army Respirator

    Bit of an odd request I know, but does anyone know a good source for a British army respirator (gas mask)? I've tried the usual suspects such as ebay, but it's looking rather expensive, and as it is a prop for a scout event, budget is rather tight! Ideally an S10, but I'm not too fussy. cheers!

    Waterproof smock wanted

    You could possibly look at the version of the MTP windproof smock that have the goretex drop liner inside - e.g. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Smock-Combat-Waterproof-and-MVP-Mtp-180-104-Good-Used/322960746356?hash=item4b31f5e774:g:ngAAAOSwhqhaQmR~ Otherwise, there are similar waterproof lined...

    Digital Night Vision rifle scope attachments from China

    Thanks all - really appreciated. I think I understand what you mean about the parallax adjustment sunndog - sounds like i need to have a re-think! Pie - i've just googled your viper connect scope. Wow - that thing is a little more high-end than my scope! I have found one reasonably priced...

    Which Daypack!

    I note your comment regarding your dislike of overly tactical looking rucksacks, and perhaps then my suggestion will be of no use, but the 5.11 Rush 24 would seem to meet all of your other needs. I use mine as an everyday commuting bag - and its great for it - loads of pockets and internal...

    British D shaped mess kit

    I've just realised that i had an original of one of these sets from my grandfather. Annoyingly, i believe that it may have been thrown away.... I have no idea what it was made of - perhaps some kind of coated metal, as the coating seemed to be wearing thin from memory. Inside them was a little...

    Deerhunter Avanti Smock

    I’ve been meaning to update this thread for a while – in the end I purchased an Avanti smock, and have had the chance to use it a reasonable amount now. I’m generally very impressed with it. First impressions on opening the parcel was that it is very light, very thin, and quite stretchy. Not at...

    Digital Night Vision rifle scope attachments from China

    I’ve recently become quite interested in the possibilities afforded by the night time shooting of rabbits. Aside from rather expensive purpose made night visions scopes for mounting on rifles, I have come across some offerings on ebay and various Chinese websites for kits to attach to your...

    MTP PCS Goretex jacket. Any opinions?

    i've used the super lightweight mtp waterproof (the one with no hood, and just arm pockets) a lot in anger, and found it fantastic. Incredibly lightweight, breathable, and packable. Rumour has it that the fabric is gore paclite (expensive), but it can't be labled as such for trademark/commercial...
