    Legally speaking its an offence but who will enforce that? The Guards never have and never will, the DF has zero authority over Civilians.

    It's not tainted with the bubonic plague so no need to burn/destroy or hand it back in, if someone came to me on the front gate with a uniform I'd simply say thanks and (think gob****e) and bin it.

    It doesn't go into a report and go to Secret Squirrels (Int) and then on to Garda Int to find out why a Civilian has a Uniform because they don't care and have bigger and more important things to be doing.

    CEMO (equipment) is considered Ordnance so they would pay a little more attention to how someone got that but clothing is fine.

    You can argue the legalities all you like, but basically it falls under the Don't Be A Dick rule.

    The Army have politely asked that we don't wear their uniform. It's really that simple. And it's impolite to argue their reasons. Not wearing one particular pattern of camouflage in one particular jurisdiction is a small price to pay in order to keep good relations between the PDF and airsoft.

    No properly run site in this country will allow you to wear IDPM anyway, so save your money and buy something else. There's no shortage of ex-issue British, French, German, Czech or Polish uniforms on the market. If you have spare cash, buy Swedish. They all work perfectly well in Ireland.
