thanks for all the inputs!

the suspender and mag pouches are M1967,not the one in the first post. thats a Y strap suspender and plastic buckle dated in the 80's, i no longer used that set, up dated pic can be found on post #5. according to this http://www.vietnamgear.com/equipment.aspx?cat=8 they are period correct for late war load out. and im trying to go for a SEALs load out as they use what ever they could get their hands on around that time( i'll probably be wearing jeans for games. )

this is my first time trying to go for a theme and i must say its been a lot of fun trying to buy the right stuff. i used to just wear what ever i have to suit my needs as a paintball player. but now that i switched to airsoft, with how realistic the guns looks, it seems that im being the one looking out of place with just any kinda camo or casual wear. i will update things to suit the era as i do more research. i sorta had to work around the rifle(its the only gun i have and i wanted a full stock version with a bayonet but this folder came up at a good price. so i just got to use what i have) the m1916 holster and those mag pouches should be period correct. ive done many nights of googling to find actual Vietnam war pic of the equipments being used to build my load out so i think im doing alright. but im open to suggestions to what i should add or take away.most pouches and bits are not that expensive and are within my reach.

and ya, i have secured the straps after i took these pics. i asked my girl friend to snap couple pic as i was toying with the straps lengths. i do want to get 1956 pouches but friend gave me these 1967 pouches for free ,so again, i kinda had to work with what i have .
