    UK waterbottles, the real thing, or fake?

    Well, that I'm gonna find out when I find a measure cup. This one being new, has a clear smell to it, which I interpret as "Chinese"??? (Thinking that originals have hardly any smell to them?)

    UK waterbottles, the real thing, or fake?

    Hello, is anyone here able to Identify my new UK waterbottle as a genuine UK Army one, or a fake? Asking this, because I don't know the UK ones, but I do know that lately many a fake is sold as original one, and these are so much less quality, leaking/denting their sides etc. Please have a look...

    Any experience with GS pcs smocks?

    A Image would be nice? and all depends if the smock has a liner, and which kind of liner? A GS PCS smock is never meant to be warm. they can be very comfy, depending on the layering you combine it with.

    Ok, but the sparks in my sleeping bag, just last night was a first for me???? Oh, and it is not a liner as in one you can get out, it's just the tissue with which the bag is constructed, as in : outer layer, insulation, inner "layer".

    Woodland MSS manufacturers, Tennier or MHF int. corp.?

    I agree with you in that it is a gamble, but as far as I know, the original manuf. doesn't make them new anymore, and I have had my part with used army stuff, 8 out of 10 times I need to return it due to too bad quality, or sizing. even when you ask for such and such size they sent something...

    BRITISH MODULAR SLEEP SYSTEM - Side opening sleeping bag liner.

    Right!, and with all that nylon and whatever in those "Modern" bags, you'l be sealed in like a metzwurst from the butcher. I just received my MSS USA, and a thing I noticed is that while sleeping, every time you move inside the bag there are sparks, due to static electricity. has anyone here...

    BRITISH MODULAR SLEEP SYSTEM - Side opening sleeping bag liner.

    And another thing Erbswurst, why would anyone have a fleece liner in a summer bag? I would imagine a cotton or polycotton? liner would be preferable here? and then at least one who would be attached in a correct way, not that awful way Carinthia and Fechsa do that! To get correctly in those...

    BRITISH MODULAR SLEEP SYSTEM - Side opening sleeping bag liner.

    nothing wrong with a zipped bag, as long as the installed the zip according to the rules of the art. like in the Dutch M-90, sturdy zip, on the inside a huge anti draft "sausage". I like as well the way they attached their sack liner, very clever! on the inside a cloth (sturdy and soft) lints...
