Are there any sources for 8 Point covers in USCM camo?

I know some have been made in the past, I think MAA made them, but right now, I do not believe there is a source for them.

Seems like 8 points would look kinda weird.

I know Gorman/Drake wear the OG-106 1971 hat. Are the black ones that Hudson and Apone wear the same type, just black colored?

I feel like an 8 point wouldn't fit in with the Vietnam-look of Colonial Marines very well, even though they did exist during the Vietnam era I guess.

I'm pretty sure they were just 80s era black baseball caps that had the "points" sewn into them-

They have typical plastic adjustable bands in the back-

Where as the military issue OG cap is sized and not adjustable.

Av is right that MAA did make these in a small run, but MAA is no more so any you might find will be second hand if someone wants to give theirs up.

Don and I wear ours all the time, I think they look great. the brim/bill is a little long ont the MAA ones but still look awesome. Of course this goes back to the "accuracy" thread, no where in the movie :mrgreen:
