Hi all,
Does anyone here use a ghillie suit? Most people I ask get funny about the subject and say things like 'why do you want one, thinking of becoming a friggin sniper'!
In fact no! But ghillie suits owe their existance to the Scottish Ghillies who wore them for stalking and anti poaching operations. Some of these ghillies went on to serve in the 'Lovats Scouts' and put these suits and their stalking skills to good use in the First World War as these Highland gentlemen made excellent snipers and intelligence gatherers.
So history lesson out of the way, does anyone use one and are they any good?
