>could these bushy clothes hide me innabushies?
Yes? Have you ever been to Bass Pro Shops or Cabelas? The majority of civilian camouflage is a fuckton better than what the military has.
Hunting camo is more specific to the theater you're in. It's a versatility vs effectiveness scenario.
>but this camo is for one particular part of an area
What about Sitka
Then are you fighting in that area? You wouldn't use desert tri color in the jungle.
The best camouflage in a conflict setting would be clothing distinctive to the group you are hunting.
Is that a digital pattern
Looks Estonian
>You wouldn't use desert tri color in the jungle.
Kinda like how we used jungle in a desert setting?
The nice thing about wearing realtree or mossy oak in a civil war scenario is that you could reasonably blend in with the civilian population while wearing a reasonable amount of it.
The biggest issue I can think of is that it might not be NIR treated so you could light up like a Christmas tree for anyone using a NOD.
Wasn't most of the earliest camouflage for hunting?
>for a conflict setting
like your GF is texting you too much
Civilian camo is often times much higher quality than milsurp stuff, military stuff has to be ok everywhere, civilian stuff has to be excellent for a few locations, as such civilian camo is highly diverse and offers a lot of options, meaning no matter the terrain the is an option for civilian camo that is far superior to milsurp camo.
A family member of mine has camo for hunting that has an integrated fucking faraday cage because there is now a theory that a number of animals can detect them, apparently it’s actually helped him. It isn’t even his top layer of clothes. I tried it out once, it’s the only time I’ve gotten within 20 yards of an elk, no way to know that was the clothes, or the elk being dumb, or blind luck.
My point is that compared to civilian camo, milsurp is not the greatest
wow that pretty good
i gotta start looking up innawoods
*can detect electrical fields
thats because we all live inside a computer
That sounds real neato.
Who makes it?
Damn that's actually really hard to tell from the image. If that guy was sitting motionless, I doubt many people would see him.
>in hot environment
>not enough hot environment uniforms in right camo
>take hot weather uniform in the wrong camo
>still better than getting heatstroke
Honestly I have no clue, I’ll ask next time I see him. It was expensive stuff and really light, looked kind of like a camo mesh with tiny wires, that’s all I really know ATM.
that guy should make like a tree and leaf
You're a fucking idiot, but here you go
If you were in a conflict setting and had the opportunity then civilian hunting camo would be the superior choice.
fucking kids on Jow Forums are a plague
It's only works when used in the very specific environment it was designed for, doesn't disrupt at longer distances like military camo, and it glows under night vision.

>Harmless camo thread bad
>jacking off to anime guns thread good
yes, but it couldn't replace proper military camo.
Sitka is so awesome. Besides all the drunk ass Indian nigs.
Still looks environment specific.
But it looks like it could work in others right
Aren't most of animal species colorblind, anyway?
Interesting. Whitetail deer (or deer in general really) are believed to be able to see light frequencies that are outside our own. For this reason hunting supply companies have started making “UV blockers” in order to suppress the reflection of ultraviolet light
That’s pretty well common and understood. Elk, moose, mule deer, and black tail are the same as white tail in that regard.
The one on the left (and in the original picture) looks like it would work for rocky environments. The one in the middle looks like it would work for woodland environments. Nothing there for desert. Again, looks more environment specific.
It’s for waterfowl but I can see it
They’re all the same family
That's retarded
Why multicam pants though?
Cause US SOF don't give a shit?
that's airsoft
Or is it?
Nice, I spotted all seven of them
Based asf
Bump
It depends on the camo and the environment you're in. I'd say yes under the right circumstances.
yup.
but boomers on CGN will tell you that camo will make you first to get necked. idiots.
There are two types of Camouflages.
>Camo made for blending in to an environment(Military Camo)
>Camo made for mimicking the environment(Hunting Camo)
Hunting camo is superior to military camo when used, but the problem being two things. One, It is designed to be used stationary, as in you are not suppose to move around. You are literally mimicking what is behind you, and two. You would need to develop like 20 different camo patterns for a military because once you move slightly out of the area that your camo is suppose to work in, it is now garbage. As apposed to military "blending" camo, that not only allows you to move(slowly), but also works in many different types of environments. Hence why most militaries usually only have two or three different camo patterns instead of 50.
Cheeky sun if a birch
theyll probably just decect your body heat from some aircraft or some shit but couldn't hurt to use anyways
Maybe if you're running around in military patterns.
i saw a thread yesterday claiming hunting camo will do it. even though his location is 45 mins away from me (which is full of rednecks wearing camo on the daily) lol
Am posting from phone but actually thought the stone on the corner was a second soldier
The concept of the UCP, that being to get it dirty to blend in to the environment is kinda neat. But practically it was pretty fucking dumb, but there are some pics here and there that show the UCP's actual potential.
Yes, it's better than the military shit actually. I wish they made quality combat shirts in fudd.
>All that larp getup
BARE FEET
Let me check....
Yes. See Scottish game hunters wwi.
What I heard summarized for them is but much more specific to season and location. Not just "Wear desert pattern pixel camo in the desert and green-brown in grasslands" but "wear this camo in this kind of forest, wear that camo in that kind of forget, but not in these seasons"
This is great up against those kinds of trees. Not so sure it'd be outside of being up against a tree. Like said. Thougjh I think they could be pretty good in that fall environment - but only fall. Spring and Summer or snowy winter and now it's dogshit.
That's my assumption though, I'd like to see someone doing some testing.
Be more jealous
Deer and elk can't see in great detail or many colors anyway. You would do about as well if you were in hunters orange
Has that been proven?
About as proven as you can get. Short of taking deer and devising some method of positively identifying that they do or so not see an amount of detail in a repeatable experiment that covers all of it's bases, determining the sensory accuity of an animal is an educated assumption based on their construction. It's as close to proof as you can get though
Ok but the question was about a conflict setting
Mesh on the left appears to be a commercial, woodland leaf hunting pattern.
Hunting camo doesn't take NIR-devices and motion detectors and stuff like that to consideration you dumb mutts.
What gun is that
nope
Famas lurk more fag.
its a FAL
308 really should have optics.
Yes
I like this one
What do you think Beo-Gam "Duck Hunter" used in Vietnam originally was?
That’s nice
Reminds me of that Swiss camo
Because the cargo and ankle pockets are dope.
Exactly, this is why UCP wasn't as bad as people said it was. Granted, it was still pretty bad though.
