What era is this? I'm assuming late '80s- early '90s. And why not a kitlist?

Early 2000s. If I was doing something late 80s - early 90s, I'd need either a really old school LBT/SOE rig, such as an 1195A, or something simple like ALICE suspenders/LBV88/Grenadiers vest + ALICE belt line. Along with an M727 instead if an M4 RIS. I didn't post the kit list next because I don't know if anyone is interested in it.

Oops. Didn't notice the MOLLE gear until after I posted. Looked like ALICE gear to me.

Off to a good start. Still lots of cool guy kit you could get to make it look more complete.

Actually SEAL kits of that type are going to look comparatively low speed, it's just that most of the correct kit is harder to find now, so they still end up being a decent investment.
I'm not sure how I feel about it though, the side pouches just make the whole thing look massive and baggy. Other than that though, looks like you're off to a good start.

I just picked up an old Blackhawk STOMP I in OD, sage flight gloves, and a new blade (Not sure whether to mount them to the rig on one of the shoulder straps or run it off my belt). I was looking into the gucci stuff (M18 smoke, Mk13 flare) for later, along with rocket fins and the UDT life preserver once I get some more money. I was planning on rubber-banding the Mk13 to the blade sheath and the M18 in one of the mag pouches.
And Thor, I know what you mean. I'm not sure if I can move them back further and have it look a bit more streamlined without restricting space to any other pouches, or making it look off-balanced or odd.

Also, props for face painting up just for pictures. Most would not take the effort.
