Hi
1) if you want cheap polish desert , screen accurate is either spat or soon Chef but lots of money.
2) Armour can be got from Spat or Chef or the there is a Pep file doing the rounds if you want to make yourself.
2) M16 or SA80 is screen accurate, I believe a flame thrower is in the works , other wise any pistol or shot gun you fancy.

Desert is the closer match.

Polish desert camo BDUs are cheap as British and closer to the screen used pattern than the British:

Usually it's file size related. Make sure it's super small

There's about 150 members with the pic below so you may want to avoid that

I don't think I've seen a Coloniam Marine toting an SA-80 yet. Any members carrying one in lieu of an M41A? I'd like to see pics. Been considering getting one but I didn't know where the Tech Manual specs were for it In Universe.

The SA-80 (the rifles concept name) or l85-A1 is in the sulacos armoury shots along with a few M16's so having one is screen accurate I take it you looking at keeping your costs down for your uniform

It's trying to source the correct uniform that
Cld b a problem I only have one army surplus
Store in my town so will have to enquire
About ordering one or go on line even then
Cld wait up till a month for delivery I have been looking
At pulse rifles online and they are few and far between
Cheapest I have seen on ebay was £150.00 any suggestions ?

I hear you I looked too and the cheaper ones (tong in cheek) the res ones look a bit crapy to me so I'm building my own. As a few people have said getting a pistol or shotgun will probably be your best bet to get going and I have struggled to get polish desserts myself so just got some of the MTP to get started.

Thinking of doing the same using as Nerf gun a the base and building
And improvising it from there obviously it wnt b able to fire
But so long as it looks the part

If your not worried about it shooting (and I'm not just want it to look the part) I'm building mine from wood I have started with 3 pieces and a 1.1 picture of the pulse rifle

Avoid most of the eBay ones!
They're likely to be poor recasts and not worth the risk.

A decent PR will cost more than £150, unless you want to build one yourself.

You've got a few options;

Resin kit from Spat: http://www.spatcave.com/spatstore2.htm
Spulse assembly FAQ: http://spatcave.com/riflefaq.htm
Building Video Tutorials: http://spatcave.com/spulsevideos.htm

An airsoft one (approx. £300)

Or even the limited edition HCG official PR (anything over £300-£800)

That's my SA80 in the hands of the second Marine to the left. Cpl Smith and I bought some cheapo springers at DCon about five-six years ago. We use them for "close encounters".

Thanks guys have managed to source an air soft sa80
Shld be delivered by end of week
Trying to source uniform later on today

Instead of doing "quick reply" choose "full editor" and then you can upload pictures!

Can anyone tell me how to upload a picture to my signature ?

_________________

Click on User Control Panel, then on the left look for Profile, and then dit signature. There's a limit on characters, and a common sense rule on size for signature pictures. For mine I looked at long time members and based the dimensions of mine on theirs. Hope that helps!

"Screen Accurate" for background/set dressing. None were ever used IN the film by anyone.
