From my understanding, the USMC used some Army stuff, so I am wondering, what between the two kits would be used for both. As it stands I am working on an army kit but I would like to know how much could be used for a USMC kit should I start putting money into it.

Most everything would transition as the Corp got hand me downs from everyone and put everything they could get to use. About the only unique items were their pack system. A few weapons that were acquired for the Marines ( none of which are available airsoft offerings) and their globe and anchor jackets and helmet cover. They had a unique canteen pouch but this was not universal and their leggings on paper had fewer hooks but these too were supplemented with navy and Army stock. The pack system was way better than the old haversack design used by the army which late in the emulated the marine design. Many a Marine humped the M1910 Army haversack however.
