Just saying, I'm a Canadian Reservist and I've run across some British a couple times, you don't wear beret in the field, it's either lid on or bush caps if you're lucky but over in a hostile environment, it'd be lid on

Actually, the RMs have a tendency to wear their Berets in conflict but like stated it depends but in Afghanistan its all Lids on due to the constant threat of IEDs, Mortars and the less common yet still effective sniper.

As has been said blokes tend not to wear the Beret. Patrol cap/Boonie with a cut down brim.
Boots have trousers over top with lacky bands and tied. This stops dust ingress through top of boots.
Not everyone is issued a secondary so you dont need to have it.
Radio pouch on the front upper left below your shoulder. PRR's are small comms range 500m so they are small radios.
Really good mate other than those finnicky points.

Thanks for you comment mate.
Question of the helmet and take a long time been discussed. It's all clear.
pants in the photo is not tucked into boots (so this is yankees fashion )
They pull the laces on top of the shoe uppers. Look closely.
P226 used by officers and some specialists.
For yet a reality in airsoft games I have to use a pistol at close range so as not to injure the main weapon (460 fps) of his opponents.
Unfortunately it is necessary to play the game.
PRR is not enough for photo-think with the time to fix it. Now there MBITR which is found in radio operators.

Ernesto...
1: Don't wear knee pads on the outside of your trousers... you are not depicting a Yank. Seriously man.. Brit soldiers wear them UNDER their dessies.
And the trousers should be bloused on the boot.
As Thus... pull the trouser hem below the top of the boot, tightly tie the cords. Use an elastic band and slightly above the... Ahh fuck it..... What do I know.

I can't be arsed.

[Ernesto]

now I work out the details ...

[Kozzie]

Looking good homie!

[Black Patch]

One thing I will point out is that the Black Band around the base of the Mk 6 is generally a para thing. I don't know of any other unit in stan wearing the mk6 black band other than the Paras in any numbers.
More I look Ernesto I will say good effort.

P.S keep your berets regimental badge in line with your left pupil when looking straight forwards mate and you will be there.
