Sorry Craig. I know how guys like to see pics...you know the drill on the net...'Pics or it never happened' Hah! ;D
We have our share of 'gear queers' but assuming your eyes and shooting / gun handling ability are up to snuff there is never a match you could not win with a bone stock AR or LM...few you could not win with an AK either depnding on the accuracy potential it had (we sometimes add bowling pins at 50 or so meters) and no optics
Besides, lots of guys use the matches to show off their guns and gear but are only marginally competent shooters. Gear does not a shooter / fighter / winner make!Run Fast, Bite Hard!

Possibly something we could look at once a year on ourside? or does this type of event already happen?"You have enemies? Good. That means you've stood up for something, sometime in your life."

As an aside, i wonder if something like this...where there is no 'official' club designation or sanction for a match (get togther?), etc. would fly in SA? Might have to lose the cammies and some of the military web gear goodies, etc. but would it be looked upon as some sort of 'paramilitary training'...given thet there is no training or instruction taking place other than what each individual gets out of it...or the fun sport that it really is?

Bit of advice though, do not wear the gear in public, in fact dont even have camo gear in most African countries, even if not specifically illegal it still makes people look twice at you, if you do travel that way for any reason get hold of swattie and pick up some tac squad in neutral colours (being the grey man in that AO is a real plus!)I am studying an awesome brand of leg fighting which was inspired by dung beetles and I think my brand of Kraft Manure is superior to all other styles ever invented. Furthermore I challenge all other manurists to a rolling contest where we shall establish whose manure ball is the biggest! I shall call it Honest Kraft Manure and declare it superior to all other brands of manure and will tell you that I have claimed the lineage directly to Imshi the great Dragon Kru Master Beetler who invented manuring, by gathering all manure from different animals together and making it work as the worlds most effective fertilizer. I proved myself by being members of not one but three super elite special gardening departments who were responsible for spreading manure to combat weed infestations!

abhm,
Yes, you are 100% correct. From a IPSC and form a IDPA point of view it is a big no! But from the context of such a shoot and not using 'prohibited' camo, there should not be a problem. If I were to wear camo, it would be to something like this and not for some fashion statement......
