These are as rare as rocking-horse shit and could well be the world's last decent pair in my current size*:
Dutch Army DPM trousers. Renowned for their durable thicker temperate-rated fabric and for their superb no-drawcord no-belt-required waist-adjustment system which allows the waist-band for be resized +/- 2 inches, or the complete top-end to be opened, with minimal hassle.
I was lucky to find these, they were on Fleabay, described as "used, like new" or something like that. When they arrived I was pleased to see that they were unissued, unmarked and still in their original unopened military packaging. Result!
But this could be the last pair I ever find. I might have to make the move to temperate-weight MTP jobs which don't have the same durability and versatility. That said, I do already have some ongoing projects involving MTP 🙂
Air Arms S200 Mk II with HuMa external regulator, quick-fill & gauge, Mobius ActionCam (25mm lens) & USB power-bank, a GBFO scope and some MTP tape.
It's a work-in-progress 🙂
* 80-96-112 or 7585/9000 - another work-in-progress 🙁

After seeing Avatar they've acquired a liking for digital camo:
Instead of shelling out about £40 for a set of branded pre-cut vinyls I saved myself 90% by taking the cheaper option from eBay.
I doubt that the Woodpigeons and Grey Squirrels can see any improvement.

When I was a kid I was never allowed anywhere near anything like this:
Now I'm 40 years older and getting into this "growing old disgracefully" malarkey, so I thought that I might as well give it a pop.
It's a tad more interesting than reading all of that Saga Holiday junkmail 🙂
Here's the business-end:
Shooting with the fibre-optic irons is OK but I'm hoping that a suitable scope will be forthcoming on my birthday. After all, I've dropped enough subtle hints.
