Can't say I'm not envious. :-)
Looks like a good set of kit that.

that MTP blends in well

[Stickley]

Thanks Fishy, I'm chuffed with it.. Just need to test it on a night out now..

Yes Sapper it does a good job. Not sure it will when the leaves return

last time i saw MTP against a natural UK background was up on the Dark Peak about 12/18 months ago, ATO wearing it stuck out like a thumb, NCO with him was in DPM blended in well

I will let you know how it feels in a month or so when spring arrives.

I cant fault the build quality.

Agreed I still have and use my issued DPM one - I reckon it will blend in nice in woodland and tree cover..it was on heather/peat moor where it lost its multi bit ;)

I'm liking that MTP Basha, have you gave it a good test yet? also where did you get it??

[Ehecatl]

looks fantastic in that background,would be interested to see how it fares amongst foliage.

[palerider]

nice set up Ian, the camo really does work well in woodland.

It's a real rush when something arrives and you deighted with it, good on you for sharing,

all I did today was a walk with my missus and the dog made a brew and came home, about 4.5 miles

Ditto but no Mrs and no brew :confused2:

[Ehecatl]

That's where I've been going wrong! Thanks Sapper!

hello,
You done well there. I'm sticking with Brit DPM. If I could have got away with it
I would still be using the very early DPM from the late 1970's till 1980's kit.
MTP phases out Brit DPM 2016 (I think?)so gonna have to get used to it :wink:
Regards
David
