[quote=@TheEvanCat] Gloves and boots and uniforms (and eye protection sometimes) are often privately purchased, so any schmuck can buy those. Knee pads and junk are sorta private purchase but at the same time issued? Mine were issued... I dunno, but unless he sold him bulletproof vests and night vision goggles then I assume you'd be fine. That might tip the government investigation detector off. [/quote] Oh, no, no BP vests or NVGs- too expensive, anyhow. Just a Gen II NVS is expensive as crap, and my brother doesn't want to spend THAT much on that sort of thing. Just tactical vest, uniform, etc.
