    Correction: DCU stands for Desert Camouflage Uniform, not Desert Combat Uniform. Don’t even know why I keep saying it, but this is a mistake.

      Its definitely exquisite. But I just can't put it above classic M81 woodland camo. I prefer forests and jungles over the Desert.

      I associate M81 with wanna be commandos and Soldier of Fortune

    So unusual to see Russian guy reviewing American gear, pretty opposite with the fact that usually Americans did lots of Russian gear review stuff 😂😂😂, definitely deserves a new subscriber 👍👍👍
    Edit: I didn’t notice that he was actually Ukrainian who lives in Florida, excuse me for minor misunderstanding, but still deserves a sub.

      No worries my father is Russian and mother is Ukrainian, so I don’t get offended when Russians and East Ukrainians are confused. It’s like you put German and Austrian inform of me.

    You should try the 1983-1990 SADF uniforms. Pretty controversial, interesting and advance.

    Oh man, don't get me started on Colt (AR-15) Carbines of the 80's and 90's. It feels like there's more variants and sub variants of Colt's Carbines than ALL of the AKs combined. (Obviously there aren't, but the vibe.)
