Hi Jim,
After reading Grampa R.'s post about making a ghillie suit I thought
he, as well as other readers might be interested in knowing there is
a company that makes custom ghillie suits. They are made with materials
that reduces the thermal signature to almost nil. The burlap is dyed
with a fire retardant and water repellent. Multiple colors of the burlap
are layered to make it match your area of operation. The burlap is
dyed in such a manner that it will appear to change color to blend
with naturally surrounding foliage and/or regional terrain. This is
the company that designed the roll-up ghillie and invented the thumb
loops to keep sleeves in place. All suits come with thumb loops unless
otherwise specified. These suits work so well they are regulated by
the Department of State! They have custom made over 10,000 suits. They
come with a 30 unconditional guarantee and a 2 year warranty against
defects in workmanship. If one wants the best ghillie money can buy
you won't go wrong. They also make ghillie covers for rifles. Custom
Concealment, Inc.See: http://www.ghillie.com/index.htm.
