Woodland Marpat Brands

[scoobabob94]

I've been doing some research to try and find a good replica marpat brand, and from what I've seen the Bulle brand is the best. The problem with this is that the only place I could find to buy it is at flecktarn.co.uk. But what about Tru Spec or Atlanco, are any of these brands any good?

Why go replica when you can get the real thing for pretty much the same price..ebay is your friend!!

otherwise, check out 204 tactical:

His version is a good replica.

As far as i've seen, most of the stuff sold on Ebay is fake. It's VERY rare that one will find the real deal on Ebay.

Yes, some of the fake ones even have the small EGAs throughout the BDU, and the same tag. Best way to get the real deal is through DMRO/DMRS.

He can't legally own issue MARPAT as he's American, unless he's in the Marines. Even faithful copies could land him in trouble. They have real guns down there!!!

204 Tactical's MARPAT is the best replica stuff there is. I have Drop Zone, Tru-Spec and Propper in MARPAT and all of it fades horribly, sometimes with only 1 wash and falls apart. The 204 stuff is still holding up perfectly and I've had is since the beginning of August. It still looks as good as when I first got it.

Actually he can. I live in America. I have several friends in Marines and the military in general, and i'm very familiar with the laws. If someone goes down to a DRMO or DRMS they can pick up a set of issue MARPATs for very cheap. Good replicas are hard to find, But i have no reason to doubt your claims about the 204 stuff seeing that you have them and i don't. All i'm saying is that it's not totally illegal to own a set of USMC MARPAT if you're a civilian. Is it possible to get in trouble for buying a set of MARPATs from DRMO/DRMS? Yes. Is it likely? No. Anyone can shop at a DRMS/DRMO or bid on the stuff at the website. If it was illegal, you wouldn't be able to buy the stuff there.

How does it compare to the USMC issued 'American Apparel' uniform? If you actually bothered to remember; how many times have you washed them and how has the colour held up? *EDIT* One more thing, how true is the pattern to the real uniform? Good, or way off like the Parklands stuff?

Thanks, man. They seem to be a good deal and still have the USMC cut, awesome.
