I am not sure about the US specifically, but I think eBay is a decent place to get stuff like that. I've heard that sometimes your local surplus stores get shipments of Soviet gear but don't take my word for it. Our gear specifically is sourced locally where it is abundant. Good luck with you search though!
Всё это мерзость, советская власть людей держала за рабов и воспитала поколения рабов, только отсюда идёт оправдание кирзачей и портянок. Для ваты поясняю, я служил в советской армии в керзачах и портянках и это мерзость
Dude! Where did you find that coat?! I just tried looking on ebay for a "hooded military trenchcoat" but couldn't find anything 😢 Edit: upon doing a Google image search it is found on ebay and such by searching with the following term: Soviet Vintage Men's Military Windproof Tarpaulin Hunter Raincoat Stalker Zone
@@ProjectSparkPC soviet gear is relatively new to me. Glad ive found your channel to watch!! Those coats I found ship from place of manufacturing which is cool!
I’m in America so my stuff is different but still works here’s what I use BDU or m81 camo pants and sweater Alice rucksack LBV webbing Black combat boots Hatchet Knife M9 American gas mask Camo gloves or fingerless gloves And a AR 15 This is what I use when I go to abandon places or wherever
9:19 why are they morally obsolete? I bought a pair of them 7 years ago on ebay and I wear them almost every day to work and to ride motorcycle, and they are nowhere near to being worn out. No regular work boots ever have lasted that long for me.
could’ve done with a pack of cigarettes or a small hipflask of vodka, or whatever you decide to put in it, both for treating radiation and for killing time at camp other than those minor gripes, fantastic job on the loadout!
Fallout is cool and all, but nothing ever quite compares to the Soviet and early post-fall aesthetics of their equipment in fictional apocalyptic scenarios, such a quality drip.
Most of my stuff is locally purchased where its abundant. It really depends on where you are from, but generally I can recommend looking around eBay and surplus markets. Good luck!
Нормальною реконструкцією? Маєш на увазі Вермахт чи Ваффен СС? Мабуть УПА? Щодо обсмоктування вестернов, то вони обсмоктують передусім причини не надавати тобі F-16, клоун. Без негативу xD
Great video! I have been a WW2 re-enactor for over 30 years and I have considered putting together a post war Soviet kit. I am currently working on a TAP 47/52 French Indo China kit.
@@ProjectSparkPC I basicly have it all together except pocket trash and the main pack. I have all French gear as well as the uniform. They used alot of US WW2 gear as well as weapons. I have an m1 carbine and French Mas 36 rifle. I want a French Mas 44 though. They are tough to find. I have a Mas 49/56 but they were a few years too late for Indo-China. They work for Algeria though.
I guess the AK-74 was not so widespread in the 70s. My dad served in the Urals and fought in Afghanistan in 1979-1980, and their main service rifle was AKM.
I’ve had always been fascinated with Historical Military stuff especially with Cold War Era stuff. Back in the States I have Soviet gear and equipment from the 1980’s and also American load out gear. I have a Bulgarian Makarov Pistol hopefully I’ll be able to get me an AK74 in the near future.
I used to prefer the capitalist equipment until I myself joined the military and realised the impracticality of some of the items. As such, I’ve come to appreciate practicality over appearance, which the Soviets seem to excel in. Admittedly I’ve yet to collect Soviet equipment myself but from what I’ve seen and learned from videos like this, PDFs and Arma Reforger, these equipment are very “no-nonsense”. Fit for a numerically superior force of a centralised economy, which requires the very basic needs to survive.
I assume that it had some sort of a factory designation or name back in the day just like most items, but it is largely lost to history. At least it is not widely known and neither does it exist in the GRAU index system as far as I looked for it. It is widely referred to simply as "officer gas mask bag", "RSh-4 officer bag", etc. The stamp under the flap can reveal some information on the factory of origin for example, but it doesn't show an item name or designation unlike some other marked items. There isn't much more information I can provide you with from the top of my mind, but if you do research on this, I would to hear about it. Good luck xD
Just a few small corrections, the Plach Palatka would have actually been folded up and put in the Veschmashok as back padding, and also all motorized rifleman had the red shoulder boards and collar tabs of the Soviet army on them, on the shoulder boards the two (Cyrillic) characters of СА (советская армия) being the abbreviation for the Soviet army. And it should also be mentioned that the flashlight was rarely ever actually used (idk why). And personally times were rarly ever actually aloud to be carried on the person, especially out in the field according to regulation that is, this can vary from unit to unit thought… Other than those things and a couple other small details this was a great video. (Btw anyone questioning my credibilit, all the information I mentioned above a got from my own in Sesotho research and a old friend of mine who did his service in the Army in the 80s)
Its all good, you are largely correct in your criticism. Someone else also mentioned that I didn't stitch up the podvorotnik podshiva which I actually didn't. And another person pointed to the green buckle I used. Anyways, quite a few interesting points were already made and I answered to them in the comments, you can scroll down and take a look at it if you want. As per the rank and branch insignia, I mentioned it and showed it in the video. I refrained from putting it onto the uniform because the video was supposed to be more about the gear. The plash-palatka would be inside the veshmeshok as you said in those cases when trench coats were issued. Otherwise people would carry it on the straps for better access, especially in the field. All the things you noted are valid, but its important to remember that there was significant variation in units and timeframe. Thank you very much for your comment, have a good one!
@@ProjectSparkPC actually or wouldn’t be entirely inaccurate to wear the green steel buckle, as you said in the video it depends on the unit but otherwise I love to see other people getting into Soviet stuff, I’m glad my comment was appreciated!
