The_Craws Posted May 6, 2005 Report Share Posted May 6, 2005 Well, I was wondering what people think of wearing camoflage. Its supposed to help break your silhouette against similar background patterns but is it worth while getting any? Does it make that much of a difference?

Ozo Posted May 7, 2005 Report Share Posted May 7, 2005 (edited) i play airsoft as a sniper and i have found flecktarn to out perform all other camo patterns by a country mile, it seems to blend into anything. i think its makes a difference if ur rough shooting but cant see much advantage in a well built hide.

The_Craws Posted May 7, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2005 Yeh, pigeon shooting from a hide doesnt really make that much of a difference cause the pigeons dont get a chance to see you! Was thinking of getting some camo gear for rough shooting, some army surplus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apbuild Posted May 7, 2005 Report Share Posted May 7, 2005 It isn't the cammo gear that makes the difference! If your hide is built well enough to disrupt the outline of your body which the incoming pigeons will see, it won't matter if you are wearing pink with yellow spots. Just keep very still until you are about to take the shot! If you must wear cammo, buy from a second hand dealer as the clothing is good quality and very cheap. Take a look at: www.flecktarn.co.uk £5.00 for second hand trousers? Can't go wrong! Rob. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

donkeymagic Posted May 14, 2005 Report Share Posted May 14, 2005 Mossy Oak leaf suit. Basic mesh suit with mossy oak print but its covered with mossy oak leaves that are stitched on all over the place. If you keep still you actually look like a bush, great for sniping. Very impressive. Im not going to get drawn into the debate camo's pro's and cons and wether its needed or not. I will say though, to the human eye i dont think you can fault the leaf suit.
