What year did the British army stop wearing red coats?
Actually, the change was gradual. It was not like one day, they just stopped. The change began in the mid-to-late 1800s, because with new technologies like long-range rifles and then various kinds of bombs, wearing bright uniforms put you at a disadvantage-- the enemy could easily see you. So the army began changing to colors that blended into the environment better and made the troops less visible from a distance. By 1902, the change had been implemented in many of the uniforms, and by the first world war, few if any British soldiers went to war in a bright-colored uniform. But bright colored uniforms, including red coats, were still used for special occasions like a military band concert, for the next several decades.

It MIGHT see some service amongst special operations forces, but the L85/SA80 rifle is still standard.
