kammo-man Posted December 7, 2015 Share #1304 Posted December 7, 2015 The myth that collectors have of suits being perfectly matched in wash-pattern-cut is just that. Suits were worn mis-matched a lot of the time like this. I have seen numerous sets like this with odd tops and bottoms matched up. In Nam collecting it's the norm. Matching suits do happen but not as often as one would expect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kammo-man Posted December 7, 2015 Share #1306 Posted December 7, 2015 This set came with the opposite Cammo mix than the last one. Over the years you see patterns like this emerge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

63 RECON Posted December 20, 2015 Share #1315 Posted December 20, 2015 wasn't sure where to put this as it has a bit of everything but the advisor in TS with grease gun is pretty rad. Anyone know what ammo pouches he is running? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riflegreen297 Posted December 20, 2015 Share #1316 Posted December 20, 2015 To me the pouches look like an Italian varient for the M1938. His hat has me more curious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
63 RECON Posted December 21, 2015 Share #1317 Posted December 21, 2015 could be, i thought it was something like a modified Swedish K mag pouch or something else European. yes that hat is pretty rad. Here is another pic, not the same guy but another TS ranger style cap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vintageproductions Posted December 21, 2015 Share #1318 Posted December 21, 2015 I think the ARVN wearing wind proofs is just as cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doyler Posted December 21, 2015 Share #1319 Posted December 21, 2015 To me the pouches look like an Italian varient for the M1938. His hat has me more curious. Was thinking the pouches were a CISO varient with shoulder strap absent or removed http://www.usmilitariaforum.com/forums/index.php?/topic/249213-strange-ammo-pouch/?hl=%2Bcia+%2Bciso&do=findComment&comment=1992249 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
63 RECON Posted December 21, 2015 Share #1320 Posted December 21, 2015 yeah i thought that as well but the closure strap is not like anything on those CISO pouches. Could be a different variant. anyway its a cool pic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kammo-man Posted December 21, 2015 Share #1321 Posted December 21, 2015 Looks sort of like this The windproof is cool I agree Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doyler Posted December 21, 2015 Share #1322 Posted December 21, 2015 yeah i thought that as well but the closure strap is not like anything on those CISO pouches.
