vest the sas use
 
does anyone know what type of vest the SAS use?

When English people talk about a "vest" it's really just an undershirt. I'd suppose they'd pick their own or use the issue ones.

Don't know for SAS but I have two SBS pics and they have ordinary issued waistcoat pi tan paint on...

Military Morons has a SAS impression too, in which the vest is just a black bullet vest

Hehe the old CRW suede vest, I lost a bid a month ago on an original one... but 350$ seemed a bit over the top...

Fuck the color! I built it! :D

And it doesn't seem like Travis is saying it loud enough....CUSTOM!
Ya know, like every guy has one made for himself!

The only vest that was ever made in multitude was the CRW vest for close quarters.

Danke February 20th, 2008 19:01

Custom hey?

I will award a Hero Cookie to the first person to build a functioning vest from gun tape & post photos.

Lerch February 20th, 2008 19:08

...you have no idea how tempting that actually is!

consider them using Paraclete RAV's and assorted pouches...

i think these blokes are embedded with the americans hence the use of US gear.

I suspect (although not for sure) that these chaps are SFSG, they are reported to be working with SAS & USSF & were given US kit to help them blend in. I think that these guys are actually more likely SAS. I heard that at least in Afghanistan the RAV had been dropped by the SBS as being too bulky although this once again is unconfirmed rumour.
