Marco H. There was a game I played as a little kid for the original Xbox called Ghost recon 2 final assault if you played split screen you can play as a German sniper that had fleck tarn camo I was hooked on it since I was a kid and still am it's a preferred camo over any us camo out today by far the coolest and most effective no one talks about how important Germany was during and after ww2 that paved the way for camo today
Hi, Looking at the patterns in the woods I'd say Flecktarn did the best at breaking up your outline. Multi-cam is great for the grass, but too light for the trees. All in all Flecktarn did the best overall job.
All three have their unique effectiveness: Multicam works well in the grasses - a prone position is best, but isn't always a viable option when hunting - but it too bright against the dark green foliage when crouching or standing. Flecktarn works best in the trees, but sticks out when in the open against the grasses. A-TACS FG works well all around and could be used in either the trees or the grass, but isn't as effective in either specifically as FG or Multicam. How you're going to be hunting (tree stand/ground blind/spot and stalk) should decide which pattern works best. I'd choose the Fleck for your environment, but keep to the shadows or by the treeline.
I agree. Multicam is good if lying in the grass but if on the move is so bright it draws your eye to it. And the others are decent if lying in tall grass anyways because.....well the grass covers them
The multi cam looked good against the grass but sucked in the trees. The A-tacks looked good in the trees and even looked somewhat better with the grass. The Flecktarn looked great with the trees but didn't quite do it with the grass. I'd go with the A-tacs.
First, congrats on the weight loss, happy for ya....the camo comparison was on contest at ALL!!! That Flecktarn is AMAZING!!! A complete suit from head to toe, including mask covering, you would simply disappear into your surroundings....yet up close, it looks the least convincing, garish and hokey in a way, but man is it the most effective by far....Good luck with the Mulies and stay warm...
Colonel Reb's Scale Models Hey Tommy scored some Flecktarn pants and gaiters after I filmed that. It's awesome all the cool gear you can buy when you're a 38" waist....
I have to say, I am not a fan of multicam for conifer woods but if you had gone prone in that outfit you would have disappeared completely in the grass. Maybe I need to think again! Here in the UK I like flecktarn. It works well in both conifer plantation and our native woodland and it's cheap. If money was no object I would probably run Pencott Greenzone or CADPAT for spring/summer and a combination of coyote brown and desert DPM in the winter. The US woodland pattern is good too, better than our standard DPM I think. Thanks for the great video. I love camo comparisons (as you probably guessed).
CADPAT is amazing in the summer/thick foliage; the only other patterns that come close are KLMK and Realtree's XTRA Green. Here in the U.S. (Indiana - midwest, next to Lake Michigan) we have mixed forests so the predominant colors are browns, greys, and tans with green mixed in; the most effective patterns here are the hunting patterns. I usually swear by Realtree but I just got a new coat from True Timber and it outperforms anything I've had before; had a doe walk up within ten feet of me (I was on the ground, relatively out in the open just standing there) and snuffle about for food for a few minutes before walking off and she never noticed me.
i dont know dude, but i like your vibes, there are some quality of you that i cant find in other tactical tubers,may be that papam flecktarn , keep the good work mate,,,
Holy shit@! Glad to see you're alive and well! The flecktarn was definitely the winner but in conifers darker tends to be better. I bet some black VC pajamas would probably do just as well in this test.
Glockster42 Not so bad. Grinding away as usual. Yourself? I'll be interested to see how the tropic fairs against the others. The greenness of it ought to be good for these moist summers we've been having the last couple years.
For that terrain the Flecktarn was the best on you, pretty cool stuff. I like camo too and wear it for hiking, camping, range day and just bumming around. I'm a vet so had some Army Woodland camo clothes and gear, which I've added Army six color desert (Choc Chip). I also like to compliment with Carhartt or Walls work clothes, which is pretty close to the coyote brown everybody is so crazy about now. These all work great and cheap like you say. Get yourself a good stand/blind and then just sit damned still til the game comes to you.
the commercial flecktatn stuff sometimes has a different color pallet. it's a little less brown for my eyes. it stands out more than the regular army stuff.
Glockster42 They don't seem to have them online, which sucks. I'll have to try to stop in next time I'm in Calgary. I'm impressed that the XL is baggy on you. I'd probably be a 2XL then.
To me at least, they all did well when the foliage was in front of them. The Multicam stood out big time when standing by itself. The A Tacs was "slightly" better standing alone but the Flectarn surprised me at how well it did either way. Not at all what I expected, however.
Flecktarn was certainly the best in this test. However, the version of ATACS-fg that you have is very light in colour. It's usually a few shades darker.
Flecktarn wins.....I'm at the moment looking through camo colours and I was looking into multi cam and then I thought of the terrain I'm in which is mainly pine and flecktarn fits with it so well and since I'm originally from Germany I love the colour even more
To be fair, the first two, wether good or bad, were just too light. They have more of a forest pattern, that would be much better. I do actually like the flecktarn also though, and have just purchased a pair of military surplus pants, and scarf. But I think I'm going to go back to the old school woodland camouflage. With big blobby patterns and high contrast pattern, I think it really breaks up the image of a body.
Ya it's weird cause looking at a still shot of the environment and the camo you might say the multicam matches the majority of the environment better. However that majority of the is grass on the ground so unless you crawl everywhere once you stand up you stand out more than ever.
For starters, although called multicam they sold you the British MTP version which is the best of the lot. Second, flecktarn all the way for us boys in Alberta. I discovered it almost twenty years ago and have been wearing it out since then.
The American stuff tends to be better for the American midwest: a little more arid. I have a few Russian patterns that I think are more suitable for Canadian woodland. One in particular, Izlom (Skol), looks a lot like Flektarn, but with more tan and a lighter green. It is amazing in light shrub and anywhere there's a bit of dappled shade. I also find Russian stuff to be cheap, but not cheaply made.
Propper makes nice A Tacs au stuff. Propper is made too military specifastion . Have lots of propper stuff it is all well made yes it has Irish penitis but so does my us military surplus stuff
yes Flecktarn is awesome!there was a good time in the late 1990 and the early 2000... a lot ArmyShops selling used but very good quality original Bundeswehr clothes in Flecktarn for very low money... Gore Tex Parka for round about 20DM to 25DM (winterinlays +15DM). Pants for 10DM to 15DM... Fieldjackets for 15DM to 20DM... For NEW clothes double or tripple the price... But the EURO make these clothes expensive... 1998 a lot Troops of the German Infantry was wearing the last stonegrey Uniforms. I was Soldier and have buyed so many stuff... and 1 DM is 0,5€... OMG i miss this time...
My fg seems darker. My au reflects green in the trees. The fleck did good. A little dark under arms and crotch. The bright shoulders and dark pits is what nearly nobody thinks about.
Вот я как раз и не могу выбрать среди этих трех расцветок. Короче надо брать всё и подбирать под погоду и конкретное место на природе.. Шоппинг для мужчин. I wiil take all of them and use for different weather and place. Thank you for this video. Good luck and be happy, man!)))
I wore Woodland when I served in the Dutch Army but i di like flecktarn a lot better,..... German waffen SS had simular great season adaptabilyty two sided cammo wich the USMC coppied if them.
I always thought flecktarn was a little too dark. At a distance you would turn into a black dot and you’d be toast. But up close, especially when it is raining and darker. It is rivaled only by the camouflage that was made for my area. American woodland. The best I’ve ever seen though, isn’t military. Predator camouflage has defeated them all.
This is a misconception. Deer (and dogs and most four-legged animals) do not see in black and white; they have dichromatic vision, meaning that they only posses two cones to perceive the color spectrum through while humans have trichromatic vision e.g. we have three cones. Humans see the color spectrum through RED, YELLOW, and BLUE. Deer don't possess the Red cone and so cannot see shades within that spectrum, which is why orange camouflage is invisible to them but sticks out like a sore thumb to us.
If it sucks why is it so popular all over the world? There are many variations of the multicam, many of them would have been better for this type of test. He is using a brighter version a darker one would have been perfect.
as a German I am a little proud about the fact most of you love our Flecktarn, it's a great patern especially in the middle European environment.
I`m from Bulgaria and we love this flecktarn pattern! We use it a lot in our airsoft battles, and its great!
Marco H. Im from Germany too and i have a Flecktarn Uniform too and it is very nice 👌
Marco H. Im from America and when i saw the Flecktarn camouflage i was instantly in love with it

Marco H. One of my favorite ones you know you can get real iussed stuff at a military surplus store cheaper
Loving the Sasqautch style walk.
Dwayne Johnson 😉 You may have been the only one to catch that.
Saw that too!!!! The very first pass, looking at the camera!!!! 😂
I noticed that also 😂
Lol I thought the same thing.
😂😂😂 Yes

Pistol Pete Flecktarn is my favorite.

Flecktarn was the best, your hat gave you away.
Your first couple of walks across the area, you've got the walk and look of that old "Bigfoot" footage from the 70's ! :))
#3 is the winner for sure
welcome back glockster i missed ya been a long 2 years
Rio John Thanks man.
I really enjoyed the video. I thought the flecktarn was the most effective. Thank you.
The flecktarn is fantastic, the best.
The multi cam looked good against the grass but sucked in the trees. The A-tacks looked good in the trees and even looked somewhat better with the grass. The Flecktarn looked great with the trees but didn't quite do it with the grass. I'd go with the A-tacs.
Kenneth Davenport facked you
My exact analysis. I'd go with the Fleck, though, and just keep to the woodline.
Kenneth Davenport A-TACS I hate multi camo
Kenneth Davenport I would go German fkeckure one atcs two and multi came last
Alternatively you could wear A-Tacks or Multi-Cam bottoms with Flecktarn or A-Tacks top depending on the trees

Henry D Sanjaya Thanks man.
welcome back glockster!
Scottie Thomson Hey, thanks man. Definitely the Flecktarn.
Holy shit@! Glad to see you're alive and well! The flecktarn was definitely the winner but in conifers darker tends to be better. I bet some black VC pajamas would probably do just as well in this test.
nwrepka Hey man how goes it? Going to try some MultiCam Tropic for summer.
Glockster42 Not so bad. Grinding away as usual. Yourself?
I'll be interested to see how the tropic fairs against the others. The greenness of it ought to be good for these moist summers we've been having the last couple years.
Good interesting video. I too love flecktarn, and it looked to be the best cammo to me
For that terrain the Flecktarn was the best on you, pretty cool stuff. I like camo too and wear it for hiking, camping, range day and just bumming around.

Thanks glockster. Keep em comin buddy. 👍. #3
594marco Thanks man.

Great to have you back. Ive missed your vids. Are you going to be sticking around?
Yes, I missed your vids too! Welcome back!
WolfNewark Got more ready to post when this one gets some more views. Thanks guys.
My great grandfather used 44 Dot camo in WW2 he said that camo is going to change how wars are fought after WW2 and he was right
And when your grandfather was fighting for nazis my grang grandfather was tortured in koncentratzionlager
Big big fan of the Flecktarn...where did you get it?
Dallas Alberta Crown Surplus here in Calgary.
Glockster42 They don't seem to have them online, which sucks. I'll have to try to stop in next time I'm in Calgary. I'm impressed that the XL is baggy on you. I'd probably be a 2XL then.
Great Video,thank you....
kind regards from Germany...
For woodland, no. 1 is Flecktarn, followed by A-Tacs FG and Multicam.
At tanned grasland, it's vice versa.
The new A-Tacs ix is a good allrounder.
I love the flecktarn, but it think it is a bit dark for that setting.
The are at least 2 type , not all are that dark , mine have gest a little black and it is old .
And after many washing and tear , are excellent.
@@K.M925 yes and now the Flecktarn is lighter the new Flecktarn don‘t use that red brown it is light brown so it is really good
To me at least, they all did well when the foliage was in front of them. The Multicam stood out big time when standing by itself. The A Tacs was "slightly" better standing alone but the Flectarn surprised me at how well it did either way. Not at all what I expected, however.
Flecktran is one of my favorites
Flecktarn was certainly the best in this test. However, the version of ATACS-fg that you have is very light in colour. It's usually a few shades darker.
they all worked pretty well if you ask me.
Flecktarn wins.....I'm at the moment looking through camo colours and I was looking into multi cam and then I thought of the terrain I'm in which is mainly pine and flecktarn fits with it so well and since I'm originally from Germany I love the colour even more
Man Flecktarn is something else. I couldnt see you behind the trees.
To be fair, the first two, wether good or bad, were just too light. They have more of a forest pattern, that would be much better. I do actually like the flecktarn also though, and have just purchased a pair of military surplus pants, and scarf. But I think I'm going to go back to the old school woodland camouflage. With big blobby patterns and high contrast pattern, I think it really breaks up the image of a body.
Flectarn is a good pine forest pattern. The FG is very versatile and somwhat effective, but the multicam is like a light bulb out in the pines.
Ya it's weird cause looking at a still shot of the environment and the camo you might say the multicam matches the majority of the environment better. However that majority of the is grass on the ground so unless you crawl everywhere once you stand up you stand out more than ever.
Love flecktarn camo. Just ordered some pants and a hat and a mask and all are flecktarn camo
man pine trees sure are a deep dark green
For starters, although called multicam they sold you the British MTP version which is the best of the lot. Second, flecktarn all the way for us boys in Alberta. I discovered it almost twenty years ago and have been wearing it out since then.

I also find Russian stuff to be cheap, but not cheaply made.
FT wins quite easily here, though it would be subordinate to MC if you moved east to the prairie. FT is a beautiful pattern.
Propper makes nice A Tacs au stuff. Propper is made too military specifastion . Have lots of propper stuff it is all well made yes it has Irish penitis but so does my us military surplus stuff
German Flecktarn works very good!
Flecktarn all the way 👍👍
yes Flecktarn is awesome!there was a good time in the late 1990 and the early 2000... a lot ArmyShops selling used but very good quality original Bundeswehr clothes in Flecktarn for very low money...

dark hat and pants along with some flecktarn color schemed face paint and you'd blend right in.
My fg seems darker. My au reflects green in the trees. The fleck did good. A little dark under arms and crotch. The bright shoulders and dark pits is what nearly nobody thinks about.
Вот я как раз и не могу выбрать среди этих трех расцветок. Короче надо брать всё и подбирать под погоду и конкретное место на природе.. Шоппинг для мужчин.
I wiil take all of them and use for different weather and place.
Thank you for this video. Good luck and be happy, man!)))
I wore Woodland when I served in the Dutch Army but i di like flecktarn a lot better,.....
German waffen SS had simular great season adaptabilyty two sided cammo wich the USMC coppied if them.
Flektarn hands down!
i think the flecktarn is a very good pattern.
Реаль полезный видос, спасибо.
Yep...flecktarn...as always the best.
Then why is multicam the most commonly used camo not just the US uses the camo lol.
If you combine a desert Flecktarn trouser with a normal Flecktarn jacket in that area, you´ll be almost invisible.
Flecktarn! 🇩🇪
bigfoot?
I always thought flecktarn was a little too dark. At a distance you would turn into a black dot and you’d be toast. But up close, especially when it is raining and darker. It is rivaled only by the camouflage that was made for my area. American woodland. The best I’ve ever seen though, isn’t military. Predator camouflage has defeated them all.
Flectarn top and the pants lighter as you had on but the hat has to go! Too light for trees and not light enough for ground grass.
for this place better multicam but for place where so many green plants better atacs
Atacs-fg
Since most game animals see in black and white, it needs to be filmed in black and white
This is a misconception. Deer (and dogs and most four-legged animals) do not see in black and white; they have dichromatic vision, meaning that they only posses two cones to perceive the color spectrum through while humans have trichromatic vision e.g. we have three cones. Humans see the color spectrum through RED, YELLOW, and BLUE. Deer don't possess the Red cone and so cannot see shades within that spectrum, which is why orange camouflage is invisible to them but sticks out like a sore thumb to us.
flektern fo sho
Were you purposely walking like bigfoot? Cause its funny
Jack Mehoff I think you’re only the second person to pick that up. 🤪. G42
Flecktarn won the day. would have been better if you had a flecktarn hat also...
Flacktarn best for blending with thé trees..... Laying down in thé grass use multicamo
it is not flecktern... it is Flecktarn ie Fleck (spot) + Tarn (camouflage)...man, you guys need to do some research!
Countlur Pak And you need to lighten up.
I wouldn't entrust my life to a multicam in the woods cause multicam suck
If it sucks why is it so popular all over the world? There are many variations of the multicam, many of them would have been better for this type of test. He is using a brighter version a darker one would have been perfect.
