Let me know I have requested pricing.

Any true gen 3 is going to be about $2000 out of my price range.

I have a buddy who's an electronics guy and says that he might be able to make me some Infra red night vision out of an old vidio cam that i have...i just got to look into IR led's or better yet IR spot lights. He's got ir cams at his front door and its like watching black and white tv totally works pitch black at his front door but u can see clear as day on the cam

Saw this kit list and thought I'd post it.. Though I think most of our players know what they need already.

Claymore, I bet that PVS14 is easily gonna be around $3000. Gen3, Auto-gated, that's gonna be pricey.

Also just noticed this:

Team Op-For can use any camo on their BDU as long as it is not full uniform, must be mixed.

So basically the ISAF have to wear multicam, cadpat, or atacs desert top and bottoms and Op-For can wear anything else so long as the top and bottom don't match...

Seems weird. If I only see the top half of someone I can't tell what team they are on....

That was last year's rules Ted, i think this year it's full on green based uniforms vs tan based uniforms

You are correct! I retract my previous statement.
