Delta Gear

redhawk_six · **Delta Gear -** 05-29-2003, 11:22 PM

Hey, does anyone know what gear (eg: helmet, vest, camo, etc.) is currently issued to Delta Force members? (And don't just post a list of gear you saw them wearing in BHD, because that is not the gear they use in real life.)

Thanks.

If you're getting ready to take over a small nation or something, count me in. I'll go ahead and look through my Military Surplus links...

Heh, no, no plans for taking over a country, I'm just trying to figure out my airsoft kit. I wanna go with a real spec ops kit as it will look better than just a set of camos, an LBV, and a paintball mask.

Try this Link out, I believe they have a wide selection.

i know they wear the "ranger vest" or something like that

yeah, I've visted that site before, and I must say, Guarder makes some pretty damn good, and cheap for there quality, tactical vests. I'm still debating whether to go with a Delta kit or a Navy SEAL kit (Guarder seems to specialize in replica SEAL gear). I just wanna know what exactly Delta Force members are issued so I can figure out which would be cheaper.

Yeah, they do, or at least they did in Somolia, they might be wearing the newer SEAL 2000 body armour now (which was what the delta boys in BHD were wearing), but I'm not sure.

And finding a replica Ranger Vest is proving to be impossible, they just don't seem to exsist.

Yeah, the gear worn by most airsoft players just isn't realistic enough for my taste. I wanna look like I know what I'm doing, even though I probably won't half the time happy:

Depends on the club you're playing with, some you might be out for 30 seconds, and others you might be out the whole game unless healed by a medic or something.

There should be a joint USA and Canada Airsoft Tournament, that'd be a load of fun.

Ferich · 05-30-2003, 12:10 AM

There's a load of Airsoft Players in Europe too..So Maybe a North America vs the World would be fun... Never would happen, but it'd be awesome.

yeah, but with the all the Canada Customs restrictions on replica firearms, it would be impossible.

Yeah, I suppose. You fellas could just purchase them in the USA, sneak them back into Canada.

It's sort of shitty that there's restrictions on Toy's, and it's beginning to happen everywhere, and I see it happening within the next few years in the USA. We have certain laws, State wise as to replicas, most just claim that they need to have a red muzzle, but that can easily be painted over, since I don't normally walk down the streets of St. Paul sporting a G3A3 slung over my back. Oh well....

I hope you're finding gear okay.
