Nice. The ski mask is always a menacing-looking addition to any kit. Might I recommend this for a vest?

Excellent!
May I ask the exact name of the vest. (although I have a Russian vest enroute, it is different from this)

Looks like a pioneer chestrig M21 I think is the nomenclature.

M23, to be exact. I contemplated an OD one with Flora camo, then I got flecktarn, and turned into a Deutsch-bag

Looks real good. Just 1 question. Is that 2qt canteen pouch vietnam or postwar?
Oh and your belt is on upside down. Doesn't really matter though.

I received my Kamysh Grad-1 vest and tried it out with my impressions. Certainly better than my previous cheap chest rig.

That second one is a really good looking kit. Get it in some better lighting, and it will be awesome.

Might I recommend a smersh or some other SPOSN rig with the partizan suit?
M23 sees VERY limited use and I've only seen it with OSN Rus and some VDV Recon.

A lot of the pics I've found of them in use are on PMC's in Iraq.

Thank you for the input!
I was not quite trying to creat an impression here, just liked the partizan suit so much.
I looked it up a bit and found awsome pictures of some Spetsnaz troops in Gorka and Smersh rig, looks really solid.

Partizan suit is very popular amongst special troops of VV MVD and TsSN FSB, so it's a good choice! Grad-1 is a nice rig, but I haven't seen it in conjunction with a partizan suit. I HAVE seen the Vityaz rig (predecessor to Grad-1) used by FSB Vympel and some regional MVD Spetsnaz. If you're looking to get another Russian rig though, smersh is the way to go. It is used by Federal troops, MVD troops, and Spetsnaz of all stripes. Here are some MVD VV with partizan suit and smersh: TsSN FSB:

Don't look at the ak haha. I still have to purchase my beloved Ak-74.
I am not a big lover of the 47 style mags but thats all I got in my real sword Type 56

I thought SOG sterilized their uniforms and equiptment from all markings. <YD>

I never understood the whole sterilized equipment deal honestly, since they are still using US weapons - with serial numbers and everything. One of the things SOG did was photograph enemy weapons after ambushes - so that they could trace the origins of the weapons. No reason the NVA couldnt do the same.

I just got back from Switzerland and i like ther enew camo so much bettr then that, no offense. ITs so weird because they don't have many standards for there military like hair earpiercings etc. I saw a soldier with his gun on his back holding hands with his girlfriend in the mall! Very different than our military.

Click , the camo worked great , i wore it for the hell of it and it actually worked , the field we played at had a bunch of different vegetation and the Swiss Liebermuster blended in perfect , i was laying in an ambush with a small group of guys and we had an enemy patrol go right by us and noone saw me , another time at the end of the game i was able to sneak around the right flank of the enemy line and take out a few of them.
Guitarmaster , i like the new camo as well , hopefully i can get a hold of some real soon.
