Nitesiters - Quick Look

"TRANSFORMS YOUR PLAIN SIGHTS INTO NIGHT SIGHTS" - Visit the Nitesiters website, and this is one of the first lines you'll see. A company so confident in their product, they're willing to commit an Internet faux-pas equivalent to shouting every word in a sentence. Was it worth it? Wildecard has a look!

“The Ridge” - RIFT Airsoft and Combat-UK

This weekend two members of FTZ, myself and Wildecard travelled to pay at the first trial day of a possible new site run jointly by RIFT Airsoft and Combat-UK called “The Ridge”
I should mention before the main part of the review that due to Zeus sending some kind of monsoon after lunch only half the day was playable.

New Photo Series

Hi All -  I was recently introduced to SG Fashion Snap by my brother. It's a great site, with some very good looking load outs on display (both male and female skirmishers) - it's well worth a look if you've got some time to kill.

Being inspired to do something similar here in the UK, I set out with my DSLR to snap some photos at Sunday's skirmish. I'll release a new profile and set of photos every few days, with more and more profiles to be added as the team and I visit more sites across the UK. Without further ado, here is our first skirmisher profile... Don't forget to click the "Read More" link at the bottom of this post for more photos!

Viceroy's Gear Review - Camo Collection

Hi all,

Here is a large portion of the clothing of various patterns I have collected over the years.

There is a short piece on the origin and use of the pattern in the real world followed by how I personally think its effectiveness is in the UK and then the rough cost based on one pair of trousers. Shirts are normally of a similar price with jackets and smocks being more.

Any questions on anything please do ask

Thanks for looking,

Viceroy

Viceroy's Gear Review - SADF M83 Chest Rig

So here is my first gear review and I decided to start with one of the original chest rigs; the South African Defence Forces M83 chest rig. The chest rig was designed in the 1980’s for use with the SADF in the Angolan Bush/Border War and has seen use in the SADF, SANDF and PMCs since then.

Chest rig have seen increased use in both the real world and airsoft due to the increased movement they offer the user. Chest rigs also offer the user to sit in vehicles while still having access to mission essential gear. They also make carrying a backpack easier which the M83 was designed to do with the M83 bergan.
