Hey guys,

I was wondering if any of you have knowledge on this:

http://www.specopspaintball.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=123 - http://www.specopspaintball.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPRO D&ProdID=123

I'm so sick of my normal camo not cutting it, and didn’t know if this stuff is good or not ...  Anyone got a clue ?

i don't know if it works or not, depends on when and where yourplaying. if you play in the fall and the grounds covered in brown leaves and no coverage in the trees, i would shoot at the only "leafy" looking thing on the field. dress for the playing field, thats why where are so many different types of hunters camo. plus, that stuff costs an awful lot. bottom line, if it moves, you can see it, know what i mean. camo if most effective to blend in, once you move, anyone can spot you no matter what your wearing. i you are looking for camo. use military camo. its usually the cheapest, used of course, and if anything else was better, then out military would use it, right?

Ghillie Suits are the ultimate form of cammo. I have one myself(hence the name "You Wont See Me". As long as its the colors where your playing your practically invisible.

If you play in areas with thorn bushes it can be a problem. But otherwise your alright most of the time.

To prevent spaming up the forums,

Do you guys have any suggestions for a good sight, it has to be a sight with mag.  I dont see the purpose of a red dot with no mag. when I can aim better without one.

I have a scope on mine. It poses absolutely no use exept for looking good and spotting every once in ahwile. Its no use for aiming.

sorry, i wan't implying that that suit was never used by military, just that standard issuse is your typical camo.. exactly, your camo color and pattern must blen in with your surroundings. otherwise its useless.

i saw a guy wearing this stuff once. i kinda blended in pretty well, but then he moved and you could see everything about him, he might as well have been wearing orange. i followed him from a long distance and took him out, then he cried like chewy, ok, not really, but i did take him out. if he handn't move, i would have been the one crying :)

Like you said before your right. If your moving around you might as well be wearing hot pink, because camo wont help you any.

i bought a red dot from red head at bass pro shop, its a 30mm two different rail mout options, 3/8 or 7/8. its 29.88 from their website. plus shipping. if you live near one, they will price match off the web site. also gander mountian, same thing, BSA,for 40 bucks. I love it, finds target fast, looks cool, and with the flatline, i hit the target better than i though i would. at 100 feet, i'm usually withing a foot of the target every shot. look at my sight here

I'd be scared some idiot would be smoking after the game and flick his ciggarette on me and I would catch fire. It would look freakin awesome if it happened to someone else (like Osama), but to me I would get angry, if I lived.

Yes ghillie suits are very flamable. Most people put fireretardant on them to prevent this. It also helps to have velcro instead of buttons to get in and out of the suit in case of fire.

You can trust almost anything from lapco. They are known for great barrels at a cheap price.

Although your bit of information was useful to others, in the future if the thread is off the top page its a general rule not to post in it and bump it to the top.

I read some of the ghille suit posts and I am concerned that you all don't use them properly. You have to "Veg-Out" the burlap is just a base. Find plants where you are going to hide and tie them into your suit. that is how you become invisible. a pair of rose pruners makes this much easier. I wouldn't spend that kind of money on a suit. You can build your own, a custom better one... just search.

Think and give them all you have from the beginning, and never weaken!
