What is the best camo?

I play paintball, and i have a set of basic woodland camo BDU's that i use for camoflauge. But everyone has woodland camo, and i want to be a little different, i have been looking for marpat BDU's online but i cant find any. I have often thought of getting some swiss camo, which is basically resistance camo isnt it? Or some german fleckarm (dont know how to spell it) camo. But im not sure if it will be as good as basic woodland camo, can anyone here offer some info on what you think is the best camoflauge that can be purchased and why? And possibly, where? The local surplus store just closed down due to lack of funds... so i have no place to go anymore, and im not sure about some of these online places, alot of them dont really look legit, bad site designs and so on.

thanks.

Get some Russian camo.

i'd say a french lizard pattern

gimme a few seconds to find pictures

if i remember correctly , it's the second version of lizard camo in use in the french army , it has been issued to french troops from the late 50's to the early 80's

it has seen combat in algeria

the one sold on this page appears to be a later model compared to the one i've posted a picture of , it is a little bit lighter

What kinds of settings are you playing in? The effectiveness of different camouflage patterns will largely depend on it.

1 camo pattern which blends well in several kinds of landscapes is the french central european

Swedish camo is very good for northern European vegetation:

Camouflages of the world

Functional Camo

You can check here,Camouflage Website the creator of the site has all kinds of camo uniforms from the post WW2 era, name a country, he probably has a uniform for it.

Since I am biased, I'd say that CADPAT is the best camouflage that you can get, civilians can't buy it because of the anti-IR coating, but there are reproductions available.

Where we play looks very similar to this

the only difference is that there is more small bushes and dead trees, that have turned grey. And there are dead light brown leafs all over the ground everywhere, and if dirt can be seen in the areans, its usually redish.

Well, here in oklahoma the dirt is really red in some places. For that I have some german camo that is a lot of blotches of redish brown, black, green and and some other colors and it seems to work really well.

If you are in America, Here is were I buy most of my hunting/outdoor stuff for wholesale prices.

Welcome to Sanctuary's camo advices

By looking at your game field , the best camo will be a bush camo

Here a picture of me to illustrate this

(By example here , i am the bush in the left of the guy in the central part of the picture)

But do not do the mistake when you choose your bush camo

(here i made the mistake to take the wrong bush camo and every people could see me)

LÖL

looks like you were wearing a ghillie suit. but i think Airwolf wants a new BDU.

Don't you think Airwolf would stand out way too much in that red dress?

From this picture you can see the British army cannot afford to give us all desert combats so they split them half and half.

But when they are not in the desert (uhh when is that?) they have good camo schemes for the enviroment they work in.

However the RAF is given all the good stuff!

Okay Okay, so we aren't so good in Heathrow either, but we are trying, if only more holiday makers wore DPMs and we had a bit more vegetation!

Well we might as well be wearing targets around our neck, but it's okay now. Remember '72 though.

No wonder the Norwegians laugh at us when we're over there, these Royal Marines are at the end of a five day insertion march over some very steep hills.

Just wait till these guys finish the exercise and go terrorise the clubs of Cyprus. Disgusting behaviour!

But anyway

This is the British FIST system, when we all came up with the idea of 'super soldiers' we decided to jump on the bandwagon. I should be getting a Merlin or Super SAR Puma but no, these guys have to slug around looking silly. I'm all bitter and twisted about that!

German fleckarn !

Germany always had advance on the other countries as regards camouflage pattern (even in WWI & WWII)

***** I'm not german, so it isn't a chauvinistic choice *****

I liek our German Camo.

I once captured a jogger in the forest on a military exercise.

pfffft. see, i told you not to drink beer to much, Herr Bierliender Kendoist

Flecktarn Camo is the best looking camo, imo.

its just a matter of taste.

If you like to be stylish, get the red Swiss camo which Victor Troska uses.

LOL

and don't forget: OFP's resistance doesn't only use swiss camo. the MGunner's, snipers, crews, and pilots also wear Flecktarn!

Flecktarn means spot-camo

Fleck = spot

tarn = Tarnung = camoflage
