Hi

I'm new to this as well. I like the extra touch of the sa80 butt plate.

welcome to the both of you :D

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.

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? ;)

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:
