Insurgent Load out?
8 October, 2010, 16:49
Sorry if this offends anyone in advance.
Hi guys, looking to spice up my game play with an insurgent type loadout (so anything from taliban to spetznaz to IRA).
I've been more swayed to a taliban militant load out so I got a few images... from what I could find on Google:
I'm looking for inspiration-
I know I'm going to really need an AK varient to begin with, but I'd like to see which varient you guys think would be best/look great.
(by the way, has to be suitable for woodland gaming, so more worried about a gun with range than camoflauge)
I have so far this idea:
Head- A red and white chequered head scarf/similar
or
a black balaclava.
Torso- Not sure. Some ideas would be great.
Legs- Also not sure.
Boots- Not a clue! (does depend on which insurgent type)
Gun- AK varient- unless anyone has a better idea.
Side Arm- None.
Not too bothered about class- sniper (possibly with dragunov), rifleman (with an AK assault), or support gunner (with RPD, or similar-bit costly though!)
Any ideas would be great!
(also, if my searching failed and someone can re-direct me to a thread similar to this, much appreciated for the link! :D)
PS,
I've been more swayed to a Middle Eastern militant load out so I got a few images... from what I could find on Google:

AK varient as you say. Anything with wood will work and in a 7.62mm flavour rather than a 5.45mm type. The modern polymer models just won't look the part either.
To carry mags, get a Chicom (or similar) chest rig

Re: Insurgent Load out?
You say no 5.45mm AK's but alot of the Taliban is A'stan are using the AK72 and AK74U as they were left over form when the Russians were there.
They are also finding all sorts of guns out there, G3's, FAL's and SLR's. As long as it is a "older" gun and looks beat up enough it will look fine. Just no rails or sights.

True but if you're going for the classic terrorist look, it has to be an AK in the 47/AKM variety

Re: Insurgent Load out?
Yes, I'm going like a low budget rag head. Simple, primitive AK47 with wood furniture.
None of this AK47 / 74 "tactical" bleeahhh.
This ain't Friggin' CoD.

Yeah any vest apart form a tatty old Chicom rig will look awful, you need to get a grubby old dish-dash too.

Re: Insurgent Load out?
For your typical Iraqi/Taliban insurgent you will need a dish dash (those flowing robes) and a pair of crappy sandals. If you are going for authentic, for a Taliban, you need a black shemagh, for an Iraqi, it depends if you are going Sunni or shai as on wears the ted and White shemagh and the other black and White.
Webbing if any is old AK pouches and pretty much nothing else, apart from a beard.
If you goi IRA, it is pretty easy. Standard DPM, black 3 hole balaclava and often an m16.
