Hi

Looking for a good repro of a German sniper veil, does anyone know anyone out there who makes them or a dealer.

Would be grateful if you could let me know..

Regards

Eberhard

I would say make your own, most sniper items were self made anyway and the homemade field look adds to realisme.

By making a head band of sorts and using strips of cloth or camo pieces, then sewn together by hand, or sew it directly to the hood if using a hood parka or hooded camo smock.

One of the german snipers on the eastern front with over 300 kills used a umbrella he had cut the fabric from,and laced the umbrella skeleton with natural foliage from the area he was in and used that as cover to snipe from behind. Pretty ingenious...i just saw a veil though..damned if i can remember the site. Ill see if i cant find it again and post it here.

Hi guys

Thanks for the advice, think the umbrella idea is a good one, think I will use that idea in my sniper impression.
