Ah! very clever...

Might give that a go actually, sounds quite handy.

The M60 is a TOP Standard. A lot of people give them bad press but I havent had any problems at all with mine. I have had it for over a year with regular use and its still going strong!

I think in somalia, they were still using 6 colour choc chip helmet covers werent they?

Yeah they were using choc chip helmet covers. I did the ranger loadout. All I can say is paracord and high speed tape are your friend.

Rangers were still wearing the chocolate chip covers, while the Marines were wearing full 6-color BDU and flak cover.

holy crap its Larry the cable guy! just kidding it looks great!

More like mix'n'match for the Marines, I have pics and saw multiple clips from then and I gotta say many Marines had the earlier non-ripstop heavy weight 3clr uniforms but the rest was 6clr. I also have pics somewhere in my computer at home of Rangers in full 6clr.

I believe 3 clolour had just become available. Because I've seen 10th Mountain guys from 93 photos still wearing 6 colour as well

Perhaps that the rangers wore choc chip desert camo on purpose. In the battlefield, it signifies that they are rangers, rather than basic infantry.

You don't want to be known as a special operator on the battlefield :p

Lol!

So here's my ALICE kit with modded suspenders. It actually makes the whole kit a whole lot more stable on you.

Wow,it´s an a awesome loadout but your kit must have an a Paca vest in woodland cammo instead Interceptor ok!

One image is more better than 100 word.

Rangers wore the chocolate chip camo uniforms aswell as the 3 color DCUs.

An the 3 color DCUs weren't brand new during Somalia/1993. I've seen pics of some Rangers wearing DCUs in the 1991 Gulf War.

Heh I know it seems like a small point, but for attention to detail in this impression it's important to note that the armor pictured and used in that era by United States Army Rangers was the Ranger Body Armor.
