This is based on a friend's account of his kit from when he was a SEAL (the vest was his). I still have several items on the way. The full photo shoot will be either tomorrow or Monday if the weather permits (because I think the movie basic was a great scenario) or next weekend when the last four things arrive.

Kitlist:

Woodland BDUs (RAID forthcoming)
Dive Booties\Jungle Boots
Boonie
Mechanix (not fitting but I like them)
BDU belt (blk)

OD Duty belt
1xLBT SAW pouch
GPS+pouch
Battery pouch

LBT 1195A
-2xSAW pouches
Claymore bag
Ranger Pace Counter

3 Day Pack (guess the brand [PM])

That pack doesnt look right. I would get a LBT 75th Ranger pack, or one of those small LBT buttpacks that go on there H-harness style rigs. For a greenside kit, I would say that nomex flight gloves look better than Mechanix. A safariland 6004 or Eagle leg holster would be good.

And what brand is that duty belt?
A ALICE pistol belt worn with in the loops of the LBT rig would be more appropriate.

Also, a riggers belt may be in order. And maybe mod your BDUs, RAID style.

I would loose the duty belt setup all together, and put the LBT SAW pouch on it, on your harness.

Post some revised pics.

Seeing that you have an M4, mag want to get some of those that each hold 6 M4 mags.

And get some more pouches on the LBT rig. 

Here are some pics of that buttpack






Might want to add some USGI ALICE canteen covers, or LBT ones, if they made their variant



And maybe some ALICE M16 ammo pouches

I agree with alot of things Kinnaird said.

I would lose most of those M60/SAW/Whatever pouches, and that strange pouch on your left side, maybe keep one M60 pouch.

Get some ALICE M16 pouches, along with canteens and pouches, and a buttpack. Put something on the shoulder straps(knife, compass pouch, smoke grenade). Maybe a sidearm?

From what I've read, those booties weren't used widely enough to be called correct since Vietnam...so I would lose those and get some jungle boots or BUD/S issue Bates.

Mod those BDU's, and maybe get an 8 point cover as an alternative? Also, I agree, get some nomex gloves.

I assume you have a BDU belt? I can't see...but if not, a black BDU belt would be your best bet.

New pack is a great suggestion also.

And last but not least... Button your fly

Regarding the gun....... a regular SOPMOD M4A1 would probably be better, and without a crane stock, or that kind of BUIS. A M203 would be cool on it, and maybe an M68.

If you do get a M203, here are some good pouches for it....

+1 100% what Kinn said, lose that pack medical pouch and your first line belt with M60 on it, go to the surplus store you work at and pick up some canteen covers and M16 pouches for cheap! its not that hard, get an SDU-5 Strobe on the shoulder not a knife or smoke that is too cliche, Also pick up a pair of Jungle boots and blouse your BDU's keep the boonie, but cut it down a bit, pick up some nomex gloves and maybe a military watch, also Sell those M60 pouches to me for a nice price, I need some.
Any ways your load out has alot of potential!

Now were getting somwhere!

If you didnt do this already, I would re-enforce on ALICE attachment on each pouch with a black zip-tie.

Also, this is a really nit-picky thing, that shade of green on your canteen cover, is the lighter shade, with a later production date. If you really want to make it look mean, then get one of the older ones with the darker OD shade.

Also this is how I am going to RAID the BDUs is this SOP(ish).

dude, the RAID is done with the smaller pockets, they move the larger pockets up on the chest and move the smaller ones to the sleeves, that is how my old LBT jacket was done. Make sure you put the large pockets at a 45 degree angel on the chest the opening of the pocket should be facing the outside.

And sleeves always down dude, this ain't a movie.

Dont worry about mentioning the nautica watch, it isnt issue, and doesnt really matter.

By M1956 buttpack, do you mean the nylon ALICE one that you already have on your rig?
