    Cammed up No 4 Mk 1(T)

    Hi Folks, in Skennertonicon's book The Britishicon Sniper there are several pictures of T's with cam on them. They are not of high quality so it is hard to see what is really used. Does anyone have any details or can post some better quality pictures? Has anyone done this themselves?

    I am completing a T clone and think that cam might help disguise the commercial scope mount and scope a little. Might also look cool and a little different from the average T. Am contemplating using some hessian sacking type material and cutting this into a long strip about 2 inches wide and then wrapping this tightly round the fore end as far back as the scope.

    Thanks!

    That's what the snipers used. Hessian sacking wrapped around the rifle and telescope and tied to itself so that it looked untidy - as it should. They also used to buy kids classroom paints in various shades of brown and green etc etc and daub the normaly light brown sacking. In fact, they still do but go further on ops by actually painting the rifle too. But there's more cammo and breaking up the solid lines by wrapping and daubing in rough sacking
