Hi Guys, Long time since I have been able to post mainly due to technical difficulties which Vern has now fixed for me. Here is a tri-colour camo that has recently come out of very old collection, when I got this it had been covered inside and out in a sort of polish/preservative type wax which I have since removed with warm soapy water however the liner still has quite a greasy feel to it. It also has one collector replaced rivet which you will note, there was one thing I did not realise until arrival was the chinstrap and liner were both Lba and unit marked which was a nice added bonus. The pics do not do the colours justice it blends into the surrounding folliage incredibly .
Thanks for looking
Regards Greg B

Hi Thijs,

Some really beautiful camos have been posted on this forum recently.

I have not picked up a camo in 8 months, what am I doing wrong?

Simple you just ask a fellow collector if he has any spare camos then hand over a couple of grand and VOILA a new camo .Rob.

Nice camo. Gotta love those colors.

as for the image size thing, I use my own web hosting site, and link to the URL of the picture. I think there are some free ones out there now, but as long as I am paying for it, I just use the one I use for my hosting website and my ebay stuff.

post your pics on http://www.photobucket.com
It costs money, but not that much...and if you are a seller on ebay, you can load a ton of pics at that site..and make them as big as you want.
