I just added up every thing I will have to pay for my BDU/DCU set is $40.85 and that's inclueding the whole price clothes and shipping if you wear Large/XL. If you wear Small/Medium BDU/DCU's it's $32.85. And that's for both a set of BDU and DCU's not just a set of one type of camo unless you want 2 set of one camo.

We'll get them when everyone has that kind of money. Right now we're sticking to woodland and DCU's since we might have to go to an event where we might have to be on one side or the other.

As far as the tac vests go, I find that OD green seems to go well with any type of camouflage. Its fine with tiger stripe and woodland, and output says it even works with desert and MARPAT.

Well, I just ordered my BDU/DCU sets from Bradley's and once they get here and I check them out I will give you a review to see it it's worth buying from them after all.

1) ACU, while currently in use by the Army, quite frankly sucks. It was designed to work in all environments and really doesn't work well in any - unless of course you are lying in a pile of gravel. ALOT of people are still upset by the Army's decision to go with ACU. I have literally watched OPFOR tredge through dense brush at 100 yards and laughed at how noticable they are. Since airsoft events primarily take place in woodland environments, I would definitely have to recommend against using ACU for airsoft.
2) If you are stuck on using ACU, you can find ACU tactical vests by a number of companies, including Tactical Tailor and Blackhawk (BHI, along with some other companies call it ARPAT, don't worry, it is the same thing as ACU). Just look around. Also, the color Foliage Green works great with ACU since that is the color specified by Army for accessories used with ACU.

Good post, thanks. That link I posted above, why does it look different from the other? There are both called ACUs? I cannot find something named Multicam anywhere. I know multicam is different.
I already have woodland including a tac vest, I just need a boonie. What do you guys wear as headgear? And how is MARPAT?

I ordered my BDU/DCU's yesterday and right before I went to work this morning the guy from Bradleys called to tell me he was sold out and would let me know once more came in in my size, d*mn it. Looks like I'll be wearing my flec top and od green pants for longer than I had hoped.
