welcome to the both of you

As Steve mentioned in this thread : http://forum.alienslegacy.com/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=14884

The polish pattern uniform is a little closer and well liked if your budget can stretch.

and no there won't be any stalls at the NSC but feel free to grab anyone and ' talk shop'





Edit: and don't forget to take a peek at this thread too

Thanks I did try to get polish desserts but can't get my size so opt for next best thing for space centre curious do you think the green or gray is better ? What do the guy's normally have ?. Looks like someone knows their weapons Robert, nice to meet you I did it because it's the only part of the pulse rifle I never liked it always looked unfinished to me got a set of iron sights on (something else that bugged me) just berried in the handle so you can't see in profile

Best to go for a desert/light camo rather than usual DPM woodland, etc.

I know the picture not to great but they are MTP and I got a more faded pair I'm going to use and look at getting polish when I can

Hi from an old Rockape!

I too was bugged by lack of sights so I have fixed a RIS rail in the carry handle which has now flip up iron sights front and rear, and for good measure a red dot scope.

Plus I have put a M16 flip up rear sight and a Fibre red bead at the front.

Photos to follow when finished the project.

That really looks good. I'm still waiting for mine from Chef.

I finish painting the PR yesterday and shortening my mags.

I will soon start a thread about my build of my PR. Where and who else can I talk about it too, without looking like a nutter?

Ohhhhh good job on the headset, looking mighty fine

Sounds good.

For any BDUs not screen accurate, try for the shading of the ones at left and right in this pic, rather than the one in the middle:
