New Photos of the Bushrag Ghillie Jacket in Desert

March 18th, 2008

This is the Ghillie Jacket, made by Bushrag in a desert pattern. 

This pattern is pre-dominately tan with a few hints of black and brown jute.  It consists of a bug-proof mesh with 3/4″ netting attached to it.  The mesh allows great air circulation to keep you cool. 

The Ghillie Jacket and Ghillie Pants match perfectly to create a complete Ghillie Suit.

The Ultra Light Ghillie Suit has the same foundation as our Ghillie Jacket and Pants except that it uses a synthetic thread instead of natural jute.  This makes the suit weigh only an incredible 3.5 lbs.

Below is a photo of the jacket and pants in Mossy pattern.

See Ghillie Suits in Action on Top Sniper on the Military Channel

January 20th, 2008

The military channel has two one hour shows on snipers.  The shows are Top Sniper and Sniper School.  Check your listings for showing times.  Ghillie suits are built and employed by the snipers in both shows.  You can see just how effective a ghillie suit is.

Top Sniper: The role of the sniper has never been more important than on the modern battlefield. From the urban combat in the streets of Iraq to the mountaintop assaults of Afghanistan, the need for precision rifle fire is critical to mission success.

But now you don’t need to head to the frontlines to see the world’s best snipers in action, we’ve got them right here on the Military Channel.

Ghillie Gloves

January 14th, 2008

Question from a customer:  I’ve been looking for some Ghillie Gloves to go with my Ghillie Suit but have not found them.  Do you sell Ghillie Gloves?

As far as I know, there are no ghillie gloves available on the market now.  Most ghillie suits have sleeves that come up to the wrist and the length of the threads are sufficient to cover the hand.

I can suggest a simple way to make your own ghillie glove.  Purchase a camoflage patterned glove like the one shown and get some jute and attach it directly to the glove.

Attach the jute to the back hand portion of the glove only up to the knuckle area.  Make the jute threads between 2″ to 6″ only.  I would not recommend putting any on the back finger portion.  There’s no need to attach thread any part of the palm or fingers.  If you need jute thread you can purchase one of our ghillie kits.  The 5 lb. ghillie kit would be overkill for just doing gloves.  Our Ghillie rifle kit is our smallest kit available.

The Ultra Light Ghillie Suit has the same foundation as our Ghillie Jacket and Pants except that it uses a synthetic thread instead of natural jute.  This lighter thread makes the entire suit weigh only an incredible 3.5 lbs.

3D Leaf Camouflage Ghillie Suits

December 20th, 2007

3D Leaf Ghillie Suits are different than the standard jute or synthetic thread suits.  If you are looking for this type of suit, you want to purchase the Chameleon Ghillie Suit.  This suit uses mainly synthetic fabric cut into leaf like shapes that are weaved throughout the netting.

The 3D camoflage ghillie suit is great for hunting in areas where there is dense foliage.  It will blend in better than the jute thread suits in both shape and texture.  You can combine the suit with the Chameleon Rifle Wrap and the Chameleon Face Veil.

Ghillie Jacket Pattern Comparisons

December 15th, 2007

Here’s a nice side by side by side comparison of a couple Ghillie Jackets.  These jackets are all handmade so there will be pattern and color differences among even the same brand jackets.

The Bushrag Woodland is greener than the Light Weight Ghillie’s All Season.  The Bushrag Mossy has more white and black in it.  The All Season color pattern is in-between the Bushrag Woodland and Mossy.  The Light Weight’s Mossy color is more brown and closer to a desert color.

Pictures of the Bushrag Chameleon Ghillie Suit

December 9th, 2007

The Bushrag Chameleon Ghillie Suit is an ultra-light Weight one piece Ghillie Suit that weighs less than 3 lbs. and covers from head to boot. The leg portion is more like a raincoat bottom that covers you completely down to your toe.  This is not a one piece jumpsuit.  There are no zippers or buttons to step into it.   The photo below shows the Woodland pattern.

The suit is put on as you would put on a poncho.  In fact, it is basically an long poncho that runs down to the ground.

This synthetic suit contains more than 700 synthetic camo-leaves.  The leaves are tied into the netting.  The netting and sythentic leaves provide good air circulation so the suit is cooler than traditional ghillie suits.  It is also fire and water resistant.

 

The suit uses mainly synthetic leaves and very little jute thread.  Below is a close up photo of the front of the suit.  You can see how the synthetic leaves and jute blend together. 

It comes with a large amount of additional leaves and plenty of jute in many colors (shown below) so that it can be adapted to better match your specific terrain.
