Yes, Flecktarn D.
 
Discussion starter · #22 · (Edited)
Thanks guys, You really gave me an awesome idea. Today me and CaptFysh are going to the surplus store and I think I'm gonna get Flecktarn D. Thanks :D
 
it seems to me that the russin camo nn2h has would work great there
Russians know how to make their camo. They have proven this in the WWII already. They also have the widest range of camo.

No flecktarn there :p

The russians DO know how to make their camo. Fleck D would work well out here, as does German fleck in the fall.

Well... That really changes my mood :eek:
 
That's kind of stupid to use multicam in a dense temprate woodland setting...
 
the best camp for a wooded area.... hmm.... let me think.... woodland?
 
you do know that "woodland" isn't a type of camo?
 
woodland is the most well known camo in the us. Green, brown, and black
Known as M81 Woodland
 
... no It's not. But US M81 woodland DOES happen to be a camouflage. There are 1001 types of woodland camouflages.
 
and there's woodland digital my brother has that pattern BDU. Mexico uses US Woodland now
 
American BDUs made by propper

Hey guys. I need help finding the right uniform. Comment some types you think I should buy. :D
Chocolate chip camo could work I there is sandy soil and tall trees. If the trees are low to the ground, woodland should be good
 
I can guarantee I'm right. Woodland digital isn't a camo type either, there's woodland MARPAT (what you're using), CADPAT, and so on and so forth.

Edit: JESUS. STOP DOUBLE POSTING AND USE THE EDIT BUTTON. I reply to something you write, then you just double post.
 
Oh my god, please edit that all down.

No multicam works almost everywhere....that why they call it MULTICAM!!
 
CaptFysh is 99% right. What you're calling "woodland" is M81. Prior to the inception of Woodland MARPAT by the marines, everybody could just call M81 "woodland" because there wasn't a lot of confusion. However, that doesn't change the fact that "woodland" is not the name of that camo pattern. Calling it woodland is sort of like calling saying that a Honda Accord is just called a "sedan." Yes, it is a sedan, just as M81 is camo designed for a woodland environment. But "car" also describes a number of other vehicles, like a Toyota Camry or a Ford Taurus. Woodland is a descriptor, not a name.

The only thing that CaptFysh is wrong about (and only slightly) is that "digital woodland" is sort of a name for a type of camo. It's what many companies call their civilian version of MARPAT. MARPAT isn't available to the public directly (nothing stopping you from ebaying it), but we still want it. So companies like Tru Spec and Propper want something to sell to us, but can't call it MARPAT. So your civilian Woodland MARPAT is going to be called Digital Woodland. It's still a pattern, and is slightly different from MARPAT (slightly different colors, by contract, and no embedded EGA logos), just not used by any military force. In that way, it's not too different from ATACS or Multicam before the Army realized the ACU did suck and started issuing it.

[edit]

MilsimM16A3,

Multicam works okay everywhere, but it doesn't work as well in many environments as camo made specifically for that environment does. If you want the best camo for a darker woodland environment, Multicam isn't it. Multicam will be decent, and better than say, 3 color desert. But that doesn't mean that it's ideal for every environment. Just that it works the best in the most number of environments. If you know you're only playing in a certain terrain, then why not buy camo that fits that terrain? That's the same mentality that the Marines put into their camo patterns. Rather than try to issue one set for all environments, they issue two sets, one of which works better in one common environment, the other of which works better in a different common environment.
 
Ya but if he wants a camo that he can do alot with...which is multicam nowadays...he shud get multicam then he can do alot of stuff with it
 
That's true. If he plans on playing in a lot of different environments with a lot of different color patterns, then Multicam is great way to go (ATACS is also pretty nice for that, though it emphasizes tans a bit more). In Michigan, Multicam is pretty popular because we get a lot of color change with the seasons, and even in the summer there's just a lot of variation in flora. You see everything from the deepest greens to very light tans all on the same acre. Plus, a lot of our fields are built up with plywood and cement. So against those sorts of things, Multicam is perfect. However, the OP lives in Missouri, not Michigan. I'm not familiar with Missouri's terrain, but some other contributors to this thread are. They seem to think that darker camos and greener camos than Multicam fit the bill better than Multicam. Who am I to say otherwise? And unless you have a lot of experience at airsoft fields in Missouri, you're kind of in the same boat as me. Multicam isn't a bad recommendation, but it might not be the best either. If Missouri calls for darker camo, then Missouri calls for darker camo.
