    http://www.usmcpro.com The English version is not working yet but you could click according to the pictures

    Or try here : www.overlord.fr and www.dual.net/outre-mer

    Try to contact them by mail and see how they would respond in English

    All three companies are 100% serious shops long etablished in Paris. If you want to buy from them, do it with confidence.

    Come to think of it, met some Swedish paintballers from Stockholm taking part in some kind of event here on "the other side of the keel".
    Complained a lot about the foul, wet weather we had here .
    Think they should be quite happy though not having to contend with trimming the kite alone all day out on the water with the rain pissing down and on a bad stomach.

    Looks like great action , however what I've wondered for a long time are the French CCE pattern BDU's.

    Just how "well" do they work in Sweden or Finland ? I'm abit unsure of it's effectiveness in these conditions...

    The CCE works very well here in sweden. Since its made for central europe it should be better suited for that area. But the perfect mix of colors made it very good in the mountaineous surroundings in that last biggame Berget 3 (Mountain 3).
    The green-grey fields blended in very well with our fauna consisting of moss and heather.
    It may not be as effective in the green sprucewoods that we have alot of here. but it works.

    -The "Légion Etrangère" golden tab is supposed to be worn on the left sleeve.

    -When wearing "Treillis de défilé" (best BDU with regimental insignias and fourragère), the FAMAS web belt must be worn too.

    -Don't go around dressed liked that in Calvi unless you have good medical cover....

    Luckily , they're in good ol' Sweden where the bad Legioneers can't get to them.

    But to talk seriously , this is just a game. No ones here to insult the French foreign legion , and if their shoulder patches are a bit incorrect, hey , I doubt it shames the Caporal chefs that much..

    On other news , I just bought those French "buckle boots" a few days ago , and must say that not only they look cool they seem to work pretty well also. I wish I could get a set of the French CCE - camouflage , since it truly is nice..

    Don't worry , I don't want to be a French foreign legioneer - imitator . I'm more interested of that "Armeé de terre" (I hope that's how you spell it) look.
