Hey guys, im new here, and I must say, this is an awesome forum, I love the pics, I wish I was lucky enough to have this many people into WW2 airsoft over here in BC, Canada. Anywaaaays, I was just wondering if anyone uses those German Economy uniforms from Asia, and if you have any pics of them in the field or on, I just bought a set an M40 set, and I just wanna see how they look in the field or worn by someone, thanks.

Do you have link to a website where these can be purchased? I myself might be interested in an economy uniform, since the uniform requirements aren't as strict down here as some of the other groups.

Getting a repro FJ smock and a para helmet from Cushmans might be the cheapest way to go Commander. I would like to get a full FJ unit together but I'm so far the only one down here that has bought a FJ smock. LMK if you do end up going that way. Thats the way I went. I will replace the plastic Cushmans parahelmet soon with a steel repro one but that is one way of getting started.
The one this gentleman is talking about comes up on Ebay all the time. They are made in HK or atleast commonly sold from there. Captain Zaks can get these for you aswell.

I actually asked if anyone has the Economy version of the Heer or SS M40 uniform, or M36, nothing to do with FJ, and if you have pics of your tunic, thanks.

If you're in BC and serious about WW2 airsoft you may want to consider coming down to the Battle of The Bulge WW2 game in December which will be in Arlington WA (USA) (north of Seattle) There will be rental gear available (Uniforms and weapons) for both US and German so you won't have to worry about the border crossing! For more info go to Battlesim.com The sponsors name is Helmutt

I bought a DAK tropical uniform from ebay, I believe it is the same "economy" type that capt. Zak sells, and I'm quite impressed with the fit and quality. At the time I did not know about capt. Zaks supply depot.

cool, mine should hopefully arrive in under the next 2 weeks...Jeff is also doing the button mod to my tunic, so it makes the buttons more of a darker color, and makes it more authentic looking, cant wait to get it.

Hey Soldat, as soon as US Customs takes their panties out of their crack and ships me my merchandise I will send that uni off to you ASAP! Button mod is on the house in appreciation for your patience and understanding. This is the second time US Customs stuck it in my ear. ;D
