I wonder how he managed to get those gloves because they are probbly more controled than that vest.

Not only that, but if you look at his feedback, he's already sold a bunch of Sniper suits and who knows what else. It's all the real deal stuff.

It's real.

Haven't seen any knockoffs yet but will certainly be keeping an eye out, heh.

Have only seen pics of the vest and chestrig (in Cad) on army.ca forums.

As well as a set in Marpat on an airsoft forum...Nice btw (you know who you are) ;)

At any rate I doubt they are too worried about A chestrig on the market.

Could even be a factory second I suppose.

Certainly a nice piece of kit...the Patrol Vest looks even cooler, imo

Now to get my hands on one, :)

No... the gloves are definately much easier to get then the vest. They're being issued to everyone now. All you need to do is bring your old gloves and liners up to stores and they'll give you the new gloves and new "liners" (for lack of a better word, but they don't really line anything... just thinner gloves.) no questions asked. Although you do need to be a CF member to do that...

I'd say the vest is harder to get for sure if it is legit because no normal grunt is issued kit like that...

But anyways, it sure would be nice if we were issued that rather then the crappy tac vests we have now.

:-D :-D :-D

And to think, there are guys who love them :-?

Patrol vest? What is this you speak of? Is it shiny? Do I want one? ;-) Just kidding Jan. Long time no see.

Must be pretty nice when you know someone in the supply chain at Dwyer Hill Training Center to hook you up.

I'm sure numerous CF personnel have already seen the auction and taken appropriate action regarding the seller's posession of CF gear. PSP, DND HQ, and DHTC don't need our help and all this is whining is starting to sound like sour grapes because it's out of our price range or unable to get it BACK into Canada.


Before we all get high and mighty, how many non-CF personnel on this forum are in posession of CADPAT? How many pics of people wearing issue CADPAT are in the photo gallery? Anyone ratted them out? Negative.

ebay link has been passed onto the boss of the Aegis Arnprior section of PSP.

Checked other CADPAT auctions... someone is selling trousers in 46 waist. Fourty bloody Six! Why do they even bother making 'em that big?!

Because there are some fatass LOG wogs or other REMF's who need 'em.

It sold for $850us 8O

That had to hurt.

At that price i'd almost expect oral from that piece of nylon porn...

So a question for those in the know... When you are a regular member in the army, do you have to use issued gear, or can you spend your own dollars and purchase your own kit? What kind of restrictions/regulations do they have regarding this? Does it have to be Cadpat, or can it be say OD?

Cheers, Brent

*snicker*

Depends.


If you are JTF-2 you can do whatever the fuck you want.


The army does allow for some non-issue gear to be worn, but it's mostly things like backpacks, camelbaks and very rarely different load bearing vests.

I know of at least 1 guy who wore the Seals action gear Cadpat Battle vest on exercise without getting written up.

$825 (US) to be exact...but nonetheless, GEEZUS SHIT MATE :banghead:
