should I wait it out or does someone know of a better price anywhere (I'm importing anyway so USA shops are cool too)

TLDR
boots for or under $28?

Sometimes we get a really good deal and get a rare camo or a grail for cheap, so cheap in fact that we are not sure it's for real until we actually get our hands on it and inspect it ourselves.

Today I tell the cautionary tale of me getting the opposite.

I have a massive DPM boner, and Iran has some pretty legit as fuck DPM patterns. I am also impulsive, and sometimes act before thinking, and do shit like place a high max bid on something the Thais are selling that you are sure is Iran DPM.

This is the item in question.

Camopedia tells us this pattern came from the United Kingdom and was used by the Iranian Basij units. I believed it to be a pretty good match and bid on it before doing my due diligence.

So I can't find pictures of Iranians wearing this uniform, and some Googling tells me the zippers are Chinese. This doesn't mean it's not Iranian, but it's maybe commercial.

I wouldn't have minded getting it regardless because I like the pattern. Sadly for me, though, somebody bid me up. Luckily I'm bidding on a few things so the shipping cost will be split up. I then proceeded to lose all my other bids, so I paid too much for this and the full Thai shipping costs.

So the TL;DR is I got assfucked price-wise on something that might not be what I thought. Lesson learned, check better next time.

Oman Royal Guard DPM came in the mail today.

Will take a better picture after it dries. Had to wash it to get off an unsettling stain.

So i was thinking of how to get a poorfag flack vest. So i came across one of these - http://www.wildernessleisure.co.uk/dpm-flak-vest-cover-woodland-591-p.asp . And also this http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/MTP-Osprey-Armour-Vest-Plate-Covers-Set-of-Two-Black-Nylon-Vest-Inserts-/281252850438 .

Now i'm wondering if this would make a relatively effective vest for like $25. What are the dimensions of those inserts? Can they fit in that plate carrier?

>>29359028
Those are plate covers, not actual plates. Read the description next time.

>>29359130
I did read it, those are the equivalent of spall liner of some ceramic plates as far as i understand, but aren't they bullet resistant to some degree, since they are intended to stop fragmentation? They are nylon, after all, like the Vietnam era flak vests.

>>29359257
They're fabric and the only thing they do is stop tiny shards of the plates from flying off and cutting your throat. You could pierce them with a fucking BB gun. A lot of things are made from fucking nylon, that doesn't mean they're fucking bulletproof. You're going to get yourself killed.

I prefer the lightweight method. Although the PASGT vests do offer protection from pistols and shotguns from what I've seen.

>>29359537
Lightweight has its uses just as bullet protection does. I do need to get a chest rig eventually.

>>29359662
True, but it doesn't match. And I cannot have that!

>>29359611
Yup, it's the kinda vest they used to give VIP's they REALLY didn't want getting damaged. I mean it's outdated now compared to stuff with plates, and I wouldn't like to test it with a 7.62, but it's the real deal.

It still frustrates me to no end that, despite all the WWII stuff that gets replicated for reenactors, no reproductions of US M3/M5 Flak Helmets are on sale, only originals.

I figured. The arm pockets would be a little different particularly the Velcro, but other than that I do not believe the models are drastically different.

>>29366850
I've never seen anything other than uniforms and a single canteen at thrift stores.

I can't even imagine walking into the Salvation Army and picking up plates and a MICH.

Anyway the side plates are small and won't be that much. If you want a price shoot me an email.

>>29366842

Just head there and check at an ATM on the way.

Also please let me know if you get something like a medium-large long. Gr14 in German sizes or 52 in Euro. Would like some Czech desert.
