*WANTED* US ACU

robust

The title says it all im looking for US ACU pants, shirt, vest etc...
size chest 44+ waist 36. (should i go on a diet?)
If anyone has these they want to sell i would be interested....

Rooky1

I have a set! Pants and shirt. I think they are made by TruSpec.
Will be home on Saturday morning, so i will check the sizes then.

I have a set that I like owning but hardly ever use, and would be willing to part with it if it caused me to have 50 quid and it was going to be used rather than sitting in a wardrobe. I can meet centrally in Dublin or around Dublin 5, otherwise postage is added to the 50 quid asking price.

What I have is:

Trousers, real U.S. Army issue bought offa eBay from a "penniless G.I.". They're 35-39 inch waist, adjustable with a cord running through them and actually even manage to cinch down to stay up on my skinny 28" ass. I'm 5'11" with sexy legs and they're long enough but if you're taller they might run a little short.

Shirt, just as authentic as the trousers. 37-41 inches, the label says, so it might be tight on you (I think they're cut baggy though, so worth a go) but even if it's no good this is still a great deal.

Boonie hat, again the same source, size "Large". My head is freakishly massive but I can crank this thing on with a bit of effort.

Helmet cover with velcro strap attachments. I think it's for a PASG but should fit an MICH just fine.

Subdued colouring velcro patches, for the U.S. 1st Infantry Division and 1st Cavalry Division.

And the best bit is the load-bearing vest, which is not U.S. Army issue but is really freakin' nice. It's by UTG and is the main reason I haven't already got rid of the loadout. 5 magazine pouches that'll each take a couple of STANAGs, 6 individual pistol mag pouches, 2 utility pouches, 2 internal map pockets, rear attachment webbing, belt attachments, nice wide comfortable shoulder straps, drag handle, D-rings, loops for water pack hoses etc. It's good quality stuff, too, the buckles and velcro are solid.

out of interest Rooky1, what condition is the BDU in?

Does it have the nametape velcro and the unit velcro on the arms like this?

Rooky1

In perfect condition.
I used them a couple of times at an indoor factory skirmish site in the UK.
It has all the velcro.

If they're Tru-Spec, I'll offer asking.

Rooky1, I offered asking, so I get first refusal according to Adverts rules.

I've reported the post, and I'm waiting on clarification from a mod.

Thats cool, but this isn't my advert!! This is Robust's wanted advert, which I replied too.
So it is my understanding that is his deal.
If I am wrong I will of course apologise and sell to whoever!!

No worries, just hold off until one of the mods clarifies things. All will be revealed...

Rooky1

Monies have been received for the uniform.
Package will be posted as soon as I confirm postal address.

If this were a for-sale thread, scanlant would be right. Since it's a wanted thread, it was up to robust to turn the offer down at which point scanlant would have had dibs as next in line.
