Toy rifles, not exactly 1:1 scale. Potentially convention-safe.

This WIP should probably be relocated to the costume build section of the forum

Moved. Excited to see your build come together. Let us know if you have any questions!

the Cobra logo on the knife sheath is a nice touch.

Thanks 0mega, I thought so too, until I checked the regs & saw that additional embellishments are not permitted. Pretty sure I’d get pinged for it.

Tiny things don’t matter too much, as long as you got the main components of the costumes there a couple little tweaks usually is fine.

Also per the Field Manual. So there is a little room for personalization of your gear.

All tactical gear worn by Officers and Troopers in the Finest should be black. Using the Condor Battle Belt and Tactical H-Harness as a common base, Officers and Troopers are granted freedom to build upon this foundation and create personalized gear load-outs that can be customized for individual tastes and modified for a wide array of Finest events and appearances (e.g., carrying additional canteens during hot-weather events or parades).

Amended first post, with component updates.

So much in transit…

As these appear too small.

I’ll save these for a helmet bag or a patch-wall, as they are too good to discard

These are the preferred logo style. For the large chest patch. Check out @Raynstroyk_Czar for patches. He makes the correct style in a large size.

Check out my many other patches at https://mediocreatbest2927.wixsite.com/patchczar or on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/patch.czar or I’m on Instagram as @patchczar. https://www.instagram.com/invites/contact/?i=1k67akb851ire&utm_content=45xrrim

Is the top rifle a Dragunov SVD, and where did you get the flash for the beret?
