I'd love to give you guys some pictures to deal with , but i just cant find any that shows those kind of details very clearly :banghead:

Check sur Militaryphotos.net dans la section stricly photos and videos.

Ya meme un video des legionnaire en train de botter des culs sÃ©verement!!
Ils ont une espece de grosse veste ballistique qui m'a dlair trÃ¨s lourde et encombrante....

En tk check ca, ya Ã©normÃ©ment de photos, beaucoup des francais en action... Pour ce qui est de savoir exactement le nom de l'Ã©quipement, c'est surment postÃ© sur le thread des photos. Autrement, link les photos sur le forum de france airsoft et les geardos (y appellent ca comme ca) vont te dire qui quoi ou comment pourquoi et bla bla bla sur comment en trouver.

merci beaucoup Fox !

je tenterai de retracer ces informations et je vous en donnerai des nouvelles !

Les lÃ©gionnaires utilise exactement le mÃªme Ã©quipement que l'armÃ©e francaise. Y'as juste les uniforme de parade qui change. Tout ce qui a trait au combat c'est la meme chose.

I didn't want to start a new thread so I'll bump this one.

What sidearms do the Legion use ? Also , what is the difference between Woodland and Centre Europe pattern ?

thanks !

bruce · August 16th, 2006, 23:40

Pistols would be the same as the regular French Army. Beretta M92F or even the Sig P226 would be used.

^Hyperion^ · August 16th, 2006, 23:47

ok thanks ! Also , does anyone know a good place where you can buy patches from all over the world ?

Trouve un forum d'airsoft du pays qui t'intÃ©resse. En espÃ©rant qui parlent francais ou anglais. Les surplus d'armÃ©s ont souvent des patchs fuckÃ©s...

Si tu cherche du stock de la LÃ©gion Ã©trangÃ¨re, va sur france airsoft, yen a surment a vendre.

centre europe is a softer pattern, the lines arnt as bold as in woodlands. I have sets of both camo, and i prefer the real deal centre europe. Much more comfy camo. The shapes in the camo arnt as prominent, it flows together alot better than woodlands.

They wear the spectre helmet now i believe, i have the older metal one.. the F2 i believe it is. I was gonna go french when i had my famas, but i sold that, and still have the helmet and the camo, its nice stuff.

ill see if i can find some pictures of my camo. Pics will be like 3 years old...but yeah lol

Thats centre europe camo yeah, with the older style metal helmet ,i believe it is either the f1 or f2. I want to track down one of the spectra ones. Any idea on what assault rig they have? Im sorry if you listed it, i cant understand french all that well lol.
For the person that wanted a comparison to woodlands, thats the russian version of woodlands, so is somewhat similar, but like i said CE is a lighter pattern, not as bold colors.

^Hyperion^ · August 17th, 2006, 19:38

trÃ¨s beau ton kit alex. C'est a peu prÃ¨s exactement ce que je veux , Ã* part que je n'aime pas trop les casques , je risque de porter le bÃ©ret vert avec l'insigne de la Grenade Ã* 7 flammes plus souvent.

alex_1987 · August 18th, 2006, 04:23

hi

we see on this other picture

that the vest ( ro rig????) is a m83 south african, in od.
French soldier didn't use this, but they have used the original model ( orange color) and now we can see fex soldier withe south-african m83 in centre europe or in woodland :!:

The helmet f1 is alredary use in all the unit ( and the para use it always, because they can't jump with spectra :smack: )
the spectra ( that is similar as a pasgt) is only use in opex ( afrique, liban, afghanistan ect...)

i do tell you that the frenche treillis are not the best

ops: , but when we like something... :angel:

pour hypÃ©rion, wep la beret c'est bon, par contre gaffe aux cheveux a ce moment la :-D
