Mad Max: Fury Road Costume Thread

It have been seen, but this time I grabbed this, so some gun connoissuer may be able to identify the gun. One of the best shots of it by now. Clip_3aa.jpg

It was never really confirmed.

I'd say it's a Browning Hi Power for sure. The handle that we see matches perfect and the bottom plate of the mag. The pistol mags in the pouches on the battle jacket may also be for a Browning Hi Power now that I think about it.

Well, in this shot he suddenly have 2 40mm Grenades -.-

I don't think he used 90% of the gear that is on the battle jacket. He seems to have AK mags in the chest pocket and I can't recall even seeing one in the movie. A lot of it seems like it's there for looks.
 
Great!. They look quite the same.
So...Max´s gun was supposed to be carried by a dog?

Well, in this shot he suddenly have 2 40mm Grenades -.-
And if my eyes don´t deceive me, here has none.

I chose the worst possible time to find this thread. I think the SADF 83 jacket sources just dried up. I literally just spent 8 hours searching for this jacket. I can't find one anywhere in the right color. I feel completely defeated. So as a last hope, I thought I'd ask if anyone here knows of anyone that isn't sold out. Or if anyone happens to have a spare, I'd be willing to pay far more than market value for it. Normally I can be patient and wait, but after putting so much time into this, it's really eating at me to have just missed it.
 
I'm not sure if it's been mentioned already, but there are knockoff Chris Reeve Pacific knives out there for far less than $300. Alibaba has then for ~$40 a piece with a minimum order of 5. I bet at least five of you guys will be willing to go in together.

Certainly makes buying a knife you'll only ever use for a costume a bit easier.

Additionally I found this place in South Africa selling battle jackets

http://www.armystores.co.za/product/used-battle-jacket/

R395 is approximately $33. No idea what shipping might be, but again if you guys do a group buy it might make it easier.

Came to this thread late too. But wow, i've learned a lot.

Has anyone contacted the wholesaler about acquiring the vests as a group order? Might be worthwhile. Including myself there are at least three people going through this thread after the M83 vests.

Be seeing you,

I've contacted the wholesaler at armystores.co.za. If I'm able to put in an order, I will buy several, so I can share them here on the forum.
 
Count me in with one vest. May be we could make a group buy.

I don't think a group buy would be feasible, because of the various exchange rates and shipping countries for everyone. It'd be easier to make one purchase with one shipping price, and then send them out. I will sell them to forum members for exactly what I paid, so I won't be making any money.

However, I don't want this thread to explode with requests, because nothing is certain yet. As soon as I have a response from the company, we'll know more. They may not ship internationally. If I'm able to place an order, I will update this thread and we can start making a formal reservation list.

In the meantime, I'm still expecting the worst (you know, hope is a mistake). So if anyone else has one for sale or knows of a dealer, please contact me. Thank you!

You said better than I did :)
 
Hello! I was wondering if anyone has any images of the wives' chastity belts? I've seen a lot of the same image of the front but nothing else
 
This has been a great thread so far. I'm very late to the party, but I'm doing my best to source parts.

Still looking for a vest. So if anyone has got a recommended search term, please let us know.

Pulling the parts list that was published earlier in posts #366 & #368, is this still the list of additional pouches and magazines needed to fill the vest out?

Pouches
5.11 Tactical Single Pistol Mag / Condor MA32 2 x Black + Dark Earth/Tan
Condor MA27 Triple Open Top M4 Mag Pouch - 2 x Black & 1 x Tan (these were triple packs that were separated)
Condor MA18 - Tan
MA1 Drop Leg Holster - Black (Added to that we also have the bicycle inner tube coverings for the drop leg holster straps)
Condor H-Beretta - Black

Magazines
Beretta 20rd(?) 3x
AK47 2x
Uzi 2x
HK G3 2x
40mm Grenade ammo

Also, I'm a little confused about the knife sheath. Is the one that comes with the Chris Reeve Pacific the one to use, or should another be ordered for accuracy?

Finally, does anyone have any suggestions for the magazines in countries where airsoft parts are not allowed?

Be seeing you,

I have a quick update on the vests, with some good/bad news. The bad news is that I won't be proceeding with a group order, for two reasons. First, I realized that as a non-premium member, I'm not allowed to make sales here. And second, I was able to finally find the vest on ebay, so I don't need to continue.

The good news is that the supplier did write back. This company will ship single vests, so there's no need for a group order. However, they were very vague, and simply said that I "would need to arrange a DHL Courier Service". A bit of research gave me a $90 postage estimate. And I have no idea how I would arrange a DHL shipment myself. Personally, I'd recommend taking this route only if you're really desperate. I was desperate myself, but I ended up with a vest in less than 48 hours on ebay, so my advice is to just do a daily search there, and eventually you'll get one (by the way, mine was only $50, so that may give you some hope).

Still looking for a vest. So if anyone has got a recommended search term, please let us know.

I used the search term "(SADF, South African, 83, m83) (jacket, vest) (military, tactical)". Search terms in parenthesis return any combination within, so if you copy everything exactly as it is inside the quotation marks, that should cover everything. Good luck!
