Spetsnaaz

[hushpuppy]

[quote="Russkie"]In all honesty, Spetsnaz doesn't really wear standard Flora BDUs. Flora and Sifra (DigiFlora) M88 and M97 (IIRC) pattern BDUs are standard Russian issue. Spetsnaz usually goes out and purchases other uniforms though. SPOSN Gorkas are very popular with them. Flora and Sifra are more of a VDV, Navel infantry, and standard infantry thing. I can go on and on about this.

Also, "Modern Spetsnaz" is a very broad term. They gear they have been using over the past five-ten years has been quickly and constantly changing. Plus, it depends on what Spetsnaz detachment you want to do. FSB? MVD? GRU?

Well theres bdus at sovietarmystuff.com and it is expensive to import. And as for the division I got the one with the fist and ak. I'm embarrassed to say i don't know the division.

"Что это" means "What is this". I legitimately do not see one piece of relevant information regarding the Spetsnaz in this thread, aside from what Nasty, Dan, and Russkie mentioned.

Puppy, anyone can fake invincibility. That is what russia and china was good at.
do you mean AKS-74U? I have that as well. its a super awesome weapon, even after letting idiots beat the shit out of my front sight post or having someone put a CQB spring in it I can still hit outdoor range targets.
get a simple chest rig for it, get an AKM or an AKS-74 or even an AK-74M if you're doing modern day stuff. Don't worry about a pistol since you aren't going to find the PMM, TT33 or any of those very easily.
I have a flecktarn uniform that is too small on me. Russians have a camo that is super similar. Dont try wearing a beret in the field, unless you absolutely must do it.[/quote]

I have a basic ak chest rig. And I searched for a side arm and all I could find was a scorpion. Is there such thing as an airsoft Mackurov?

[hushpuppy]

That's my fault
I accidentally typed "a" twice.

Note, Soviet Army Stuff displays false info and is overpriced. Thus they suck.

Yes, there is an airsoft Makarov. KWC makes one, but it shoots 500 FPS and is some what crappy. Better idea would be to wait for the KWA TT-33.

The patch you speak of sounds like the VV MVD Vityaz one.

would regular woodland bdus work for my uniform?

Well, sort of since they Russians did copy the M81 Woodland BDU and their version is called NATO. I wouldn't recommend going with US M81 BDU though as no one would really take you seriously for doing a Russian impression.

You're going to have to face it that a Russian impression isn't exactly cheap, but in all honesty its WAY cheaper than say a modern US SF impression.

i kind of figured
look at the russian tiger striped uniform that guy is selling on this site and see if that would work and is a good buy

[Russkie]

Looks like Greek Lizard Pattern not Russian Tigr Pattern to me.

[hushpuppy]

alright
well I'll look at Andy and Bax in Portland
Maybe they'll have some

I would personally take someone seriously if they wore US BDU's and a chest rig with their AKS-74U and proper performance in the field before taking seriously someone with made and bought in russia stuff with an AK-74M w/GP30 & front mounted red dot optics who was fat and useless. (regretably, replace russian uniform with marpat, replace AK+grenade launcher+optic setup with 416+launcher+optics and you get a guy I had to put up with back when I first started airsofting).

then again, I am one to talk since the closest thing to a "not USA pattern" doesnt fit me.

looks like hushpuppy might find himself in the right direction if all the advice you cooler guys are giving him is used correctly.

Glad someone believes in me haha

I don't think that was the intended point, but sure...

Best of luck.

If your still looking for a pattern to chose you might try DPM ( British or Dutch should work). To the casual player it looks kind of like SMOG.
