Russian troop impression

[Desmodus]

It's all a part of Russia's effort to modernize its Army, give'em a more professional look.

[Demichev]

It's definently not Russia's effort to modernize it's army. It's just a private company producing a camouflage.

The last thing Russia should want to do is try to mirror the look of a Western army. I like the new digital pattern, it looks good. (I'm not talking about this Surpat.)

beautiful appearance has not yet said what are you a professional.
Look at the Taliban in Afghanistan, the lack of equipment does not interfere with wage war

Hey guys, I'm ordering from http://www.soviet-propaganda.com/ind...products_id=19 and need help with sizing.

I am 6'3'' 185 lbs. I will use the charts if they are known to be accurate but any advice on the subject is appreciated.


EDIT: guess I'll just use the charts if no one has any extra advice.

[Frozen Tex]

Im 6'2", 250lbs... The charts work fine. I bought Gorka, and hats. The hats fit fine, and although I was afraid I'd get stupidly large pants in order to get a jacket that fits (almost all their camo comes as sets, instead of separates), everything fits just dandy.

How big is your chest? If you don't have a cloth measuring tape, take a piece of string/rope, go around your chest under your arm pits. Take the string, and align it with a measuring tape.

I'd guess that you'd be a size 6/52. Also, depends on what you're ordering. the over suits are bigger than the normal size, so I'd recommend going smaller on the chest size, as in getting a size 50, but stick with the 6 for height.

[Cheesevillage]

I was going to order a 50 but they didn't have what I needed.

The tentative order is 52-54-194. Kinda big, but I can always hemm the pants. I think it'll work out.

First skirmish of the year.

Heh.
That's the best impression I think I saw here.
Nothing fancy, nothing looks new or off the shelf and all is on it's place

(double Ku to Demichev )

[BootYourFace]

Fancy? Ahem. Looks like he's got REAL armor there. Looks plated. The armor also looks unused.. :P.

But awesome Job Brandon. I'm once again kicking myself in the ass for selling my 6b3.

[Cheesevillage]

So guys...want to see my russian sniper suit + modern chest rig?

Augh man, all this gear is so nice but I fear I don't have much of an impression going on. At least my setup is true to Russian ideals: robust/simple/efficient.


EDIT:

[BootYourFace]

Ah whatever. Cant all be perfect. At least you made the effort to represent the Russian side. Canada needs more "real" badguys to fight against. Muahahah.

[Demichev]

Thanks for all the comments! The 6B5-19 is fully plated and in really good condition with minor rust. Only in the first photo can you really tell it's condition. I want a 6B3!

It's a dark photo but I don't think you'll mind too much.
