It's like a dotted line. Sometimes you see it, sometimes you don't.

If all you're looking for is something that you can roll up and stash but use when you want to conceal and hide a bit better, why not get something like this?
http://www.ghilliesuits.com/index.as...PROD&ProdID=16 Its more a pack cover/poncho kind. But over all if you're not intending to really branch off from the unit either to the side or up a head, this isn't really something you need/want to deal with.

Stalker,
How are you fastening on that quick ghillie?

I'm thinking of 1" webbing straps across the chest with ladder locks on it. Quick and simple, and low profile.

I made a ghillie cape last summer and find it's not to bad to crawl around in. It is just a rectangle net with some burlap straps so you can put the cape on like a backpack. There is also lots of net above the shoulder portion so it can be pulled over as a hood. I used jute twine for the majority of it, but end up cramming the ghillie full of grass, leaves and twigs to make it effective.
I think the easiest thing to wear under it is a belt with a few pouches. CIRASs are too big. But if you really wanted to, you could put this over your CIRAS. http://i222.photobucket.com/albums/d...o/DSCN5066.jpg http://i222.photobucket.com/albums/d...o/DSCN5033.jpg http://i222.photobucket.com/albums/d...o/DSCN5029.jpg http://i222.photobucket.com/albums/d...o/DSCN5030.jpg Last edited by techobo; December 6th, 2007 at 11:54.. |

I originally built my first ghillie on a set of tiger stripe BDU's 13 years ago using smelt netting and dyed burlap. The burlap added the most weight (duh) and the smelt netting made for easy assembly after it was sewn directly onto the BDU. For your application you could make a poncho, or like a hooded short cape, out of a stronger type of netting with tie downs in key locations in order to allow a relatively "quick attachment" to the rest of your kit. However,as a note, over the years I often found that the netting snagged on various other parts of my kit (the rear sling mount on my AR for example). A quick fix for this was to sew a patch of light material onto the inside of the netting in the problem areas before attaching the burlap. This prevents the ghillie netting from snagging onto the MP5K I sometimes sling across the small of my back....and allows me to reach it with out grabbing a hand full of burlap as well. So do this over the area where you intend to affix your pistol holster to your kit, However, again..this does not prevent the netting from snagging on anything outside of your kit, such as branches and the like. But nothing is perfect. A home made ghillie can be be both cost and field effective, as long as it is well thought out. And I would suggest using a lot of earth tones in your ghillie, as you can always add greens to your ghillie in the shape of garnish.....there's not a lot of brown garnish available to add to a green ghillie. Good luck with your project; SHA DO
