    Im pretty familiar with both the Airsoft community and real firearms community. I appreciate the fact that you and many other people within the firearms/ armed prepared citizen community are taking a good look into what the airsoft side of the house has to offer. I believe most people in the firearms world look down upon airsofters. But airsofters can have something to bring to the table. We can’t forget that many Airsofters are out using their gear every weekend. Much more than most gun guys do if I’m being honest.

      The air-soft channels I watched were serious about their competition. Not so much that it wasn't enjoyable or sportsman like but the closest thing to real combat anyone cloud do without being in a war. These guys were out for the whole weekend living out of a pack eating freeze dried food sleeping in the woods (if they slept), so capture the flag games aren't dead yet just a little different.

      I don't shit on airsoft, in the end its force on force training. Does it have its limitations, absolutely, but that doesn't mean there isn't training value there. Same is true with familiarity with gear. Most of the airsoft gear is similar or the same as the gear used by trigger pullers. I say that, having never even played airsoft, but I can see the the way dudes approach the sport and I know its inspiring younger generations into possibly joining the service, much the same way paintball did for me growing up.

      Ironically, a lot of airsofters try their hardest to remain concealed in matches so seeing these folks make camo items is awesome. When I was in, we had the crappy UCP items for our ABU's and I found using some airsoft pouches that allowed more storage room etc. Worked out better than GI issued items. 😂 They held up good too.

    Good looking gear! As a gear maker myself I would highly recommend that KMCS use small loops sewn into the inside seam of the pull loop around the pack. Maybe they do and you just didn't show them or use them. For a small pack like this one I'd use (4) loops, (2) on each side. With these loops you can 100% secure your pack cover to your pack. I use small bungees with metal hooks but in a pinch just use some 550. Nothing sucks worse then having to bust through thick brush for 500 yards and then hike out 1/4 mile only to realize you lost your pack cover. After learning this lesson I started sewing these tie-out loops into all my pack covers. No more wasting time backtracking looking for lost gear.

  • @fidel-3470

    I learned a whole lot through KMCS's ghillie suit making videos. It's worth understanding that KM also does real field operations to test his gear, for example he did a video series about going to Africa and using his system to watch for poachers, so he's not just an airsoft dork. He's also done videos talking to guys in other countries about their suit systems, and at least one of those guys was a supplier for their military (I think it was a guy from norway). I think this guy makes a better product than Crye.
    KMCS has a bunch of videos on DIYing systems if anyone wants a craft project. I'd definitely recommend using shoe goo and not hot glue.
    As a tip, the absolute best material to add (besides living vegetation) is natural Raffia, the reason is because it absorbs moisture and will naturally match the moisture of your environment, but the long strands can be tied on and will last for years. It just looks like a pile of dead grass, cause it literally is just dead grass. You can dye raffia if you need, but using it in the field will cause it absorb the environment. You can spray everything down with fire resistant sprays too.
    Here's a handy multi-tool with garden sheers built in, great for snipping live vegetation: www.amazon.com/Bibury-Gardening-Multitools-Stainless-Secateurs/dp/B07NW89MCP/
    As for covering a rifle, a small handful of rubber bands in the right spot go a long way - just attach vegetation, if it rips off, no big deal. Use normal office style rubber bands, as it's good that they break rather than get snagged like a ranger band would. If you want something tougher, get a women's hair tie from the store.

  • @bradh74
    @bradh74 Před 2 měsíci +4

    Never realized how well camo works until I saw your videos with a trained person that understands how to use it properly. Well there was an occasion when I took my boy out to see wildlife (scout for hunting) and an Army Colonel, who frequently did nature walks there, walked up on me from a depression (small valley) and startled me. He didn't mean to I think he seen me with my boy and wanted to help out so the kids dumb dad wasn't sitting in a bunch of apple trees at eye level right where the Deer would be looking. (plus sent). I should have stuck around but was getting anxious to get going, so being young I probably missed out on a golden opportunity of meeting a cool person. He liked to shoot the ground hogs for the Orchard. That full Ghillie suit makes it really tough to see you moving and the Cobra Hood does enough that if crouched down or prone you'd never pick up your silhouette. Nice video Brent! Like you said it still maters but Thermal imaging scopes really make life scary for anyone who needs to stay concealed, just the IR stuff picks up things an average guy wouldn't believe.

I think that too would be a nice solution for a helmet, maybe Just cutting a larger piece of camo netting that goes down to the shoulders could help to break the neck/shoulder outline being even more compact than the cobra Hood (which Is a very useful product).

    Ingredients to make your own:
    1. Old M65 Field Jacket w/hood still attached
    2. shoe goo, heavy gauge needle, O.D. nylon thread, penny shears
    3. sniper veil(s) 1-woodland, 1-desert
    4. 1" fish netting (about 50 sq ft)
    5. 1-300 ft spool 550 cord w/guts intact
    6. 2-4 Burlap (undyed) sacks
    7. 1yard of either heavy duck canvas or 1000D Cordura
    8. Krylon camo/ultra flat spray paint(s).
    The reason you are going to use an M65 field jacket instead of a regular BDU or similar top is mainly for the hood that is attached in the collar of the jacket and the material used to make the field jacket is either a NYCO Twill or a Sateen Twill depending. And your gonna cut about 90% of the jacket away anyways. Remember youre making a Cobra hood NOT a 'regular' ghillie top. You just need the top half of the jacket and about 3/4 of the sleeves (length wise) so you can just throw it over the top of your currently wore kit and not have to thread your arms through sleeves. If made correctly, when donned, the shoulder section just simply cross over the top of your ruck and straps with the burlap and netting etc. to hang or set over or around your ruck.
