Well, as my rifle fixing is slowly coming together, I realized I dont have the other part of my equation complete. I dont have any gear that fits me anymore. I made my ghillie suit when I was 17 and I have grown taller and the damn thing doesnt fit me in the shoulders anymore, also it isnt a super-high quality, it was more of a learning experience. I remembered a product called the Cobra Hood. Looks like this: The damn thing costs like $200+, then someone pointed out that the Web-Tex Concealement vest is nearly identical to it and is about 1/4th the price. Only problem is I cant find them in the US, there are apprently a shit-ton in the UK but not many over here. So heres comes my two questions. 1) Where the hell can I get my hands on one of these in the US 2) Should I just purchase a jumpsuit/flightsuit, add some netting, then add my jute? I love the ability of a ghillie to break up the human shape so I would put netting/jute on the Web-Tex vest, I just dont know if it would be as efficient. I just see the Web-Tex sort of being a temporary thing that I can throw ontop of my and any other gear I purchase in the future and essentailly works like a crawl suit seeing as it just sits on your head/shoulders/back.

1) Buy from the UK. Not that hard. 2) Pretty easy to do, I can assume. It's pretty much an overcoat type deal, rather than a full body suit. If you can sew, just pick up whatever base pattern you want + an extra shirt, both in a size larger than you normally wear. You're going to be wearing it over other clothing so you need that space. Cut up the extra shirt to extend the bottom and make a hood as well. Attach netting. BAM done.
