Help on reenactment quality WW2 army items

[Mopar82]

Hey guys I'm reaching out for this 80th anniversary of VE DAY WW2. I'm looking for army or airborne gear. Preferred deals on things outside of crazy eBay. I'll be after main gear items. I need M1 carbine mag pouches and m1 garand blok pouches.(Full belt setups/ with suspender setup I'll be interested in or make one myself). I'll switch between both firearms probably. I'll need stuff to complete the outfit. My size is large long on most pants but I might fit a medium long pant. Top half is medium long shirts and combat jacket could be bigger. Boots at 12 to 12.5/medium to large. Canvas boot covers medium or large (mind slipping on name like gators I think). The other setup I'll need the standard issued dday army backpack gear preferred shovel style. Mountain division backpacks are cool too. If we got any airborne surplus to make a respectful outfit I would too. I'm just throwing it out there if someones grandpa that's passed on gets respected by me doing this. I'll do Fort Stevens trips and etc. parades and live fire blank events when I can find those events. But really just being a fun reinactor to run and jump in an outta a jeep at a parade. Standing guard or walking memorials to show honor and respect for our boys! I'm enjoying the group here so there's the fishing lure out there. Thankyou guys!

Thankyou I'll assemble an outfit soon. I wanna find some authentic but reproduction is cool for fresh color. I need to research a certain company and run one. A paratrooper set like 82nd or EZ too. Make it fun

At The Front....
Makes excellent quality items...pricey...but then they are also made like the "real thing."

I'll probably go partial reproduction to original. Tan to green combo or solid green all over. I appreciate it guys I'll be doing everything once stuff calms down a hair. Busy week lol

Have you looked at The War Front yet? That's what they do. Authentic gear from both Allied and Axis.
