    Lowa combat or mountain?

    Before i pull the trigger on a new pair of either, is there any difference between the two? I mean apart from the combats being a little taller? None of my previous boots ever got any attention. My old style German para boots were a decade old when i got them and i wore them into the ground...

    Dutch or Danish issue sleeping bags, or.................

    I just had a look at one. It is like the British one. They look nice and warm but they are heavy and bulky. It looks like i am going to have to take a look at civilian ones.

    Packs to mod

    I have this genuine Danish backpack and the German copy of an Asian made copy of the Vulcan. The side pockets of this fit the Danish bag but only if they are upside down and only one side of each zip works. My search for M84 side pockets continues. The Danish sack is just that. A single sack...

    Dutch or Danish issue sleeping bags, or.................

    Best issue sleeping bag advice. Now that summer has ended in the uk my Snugpak Travepak2 wont cut it. My winter temp (UK 9 month) bag was a mid priced commercial buy and whilst not too bulky or heavy was never warm. I am not looking for the lightest or most expensive or the warmest. I've had...

    Mil Tec Flecktarn Tarp - opinions and sources?

    In the end i went for an MFH tarp for less than 20 quid. 3x3 and less than 500 grammes. I folded and glued the edges and added extra eyelets and a couple of loops onto the ridge. So far it has kept the rain out. I now have a new love, Danish M84 camo so am looking for one of their issue...

    Best Soap for repelling Insects

    It was suggested that i try Neem and eat more garlic. I love garlic, i eat tons of it.The bugs love my garlic blood. So far Neem has not made any difference.

    Is my mug the Austrian issue one?

    I have had my mug for years and always believed it to be Austrian. However, whenever i have come across them online they have always been attributed to any other country but Austria. As a consequence i now have two different lids that don't fit because they are not for an Austrian mug. So still...

    Has anyone made or has a pattern for a hooped bivvy bag?

    I already have 2 new british dpm bags so i don't really want to go to the expense of buying a new dutch army one or a snugpak. However, if someone has a link to Danish M84 pattern gore tex or similar breathable fabric i may be persuaded to break the bank.

    Tent or bivvy?

    I have yet to master folding all the air out of a bivvy bag so use a stuff sack. The tarp folds ors stuffs really small. Either ways its smaller and lighter than the tent

    Any experience with GS pcs smocks?

    I just brought one of these in Dancam M84. The quality seems to be very good. Just 9 pockets which is about half as much as my other smocks. But who needs 17 pockets, eh? The camo is very dark in tone. The sizing on these is s,m,l,xl,xl etc i went for xl hoping it would be like my 95 desert...

    Tent or bivvy?

    British army dpm bivvy bag and mfh 3x3m tarp. I got two new bivvy bags of ebay 2-3 years ago both unissued by the look for £35 the pair, my mfh tarp for £18 as it is half the weight of the issue one and larger( although 3 sq meters is a bit big). Half the year you can manage with just the...

    Grayl Water Filter Bottle

    I bought the G3 in stainless and black with a purifier spare cartridge last year for just under £50 for the both. It sat in a drawer forgotten about until a couple of months ago. The only water i usually take with me is in a 1l canteen to make tea with. The spare canteen carries cognac...

    I am Looking for an MFH Crusader type Bergen in Danish M84 Camo.

    So what we are talking here isnt about what you mau or may not have heard about them. What we are talking here is i have owned one and am telling you the quality is good. After 3 years of on average 2 days a week usage in all weathers over the yorks moors and both peak districts various...

    I am Looking for an MFH Crusader type Bergen in Danish M84 Camo.

    Seams and stitching were ok on mine. The only complaints that seem to recur are regarding comfort, i think lack of padding on the straps. I dont care much for the vario system. I have it on my Lowe Alpine and it is disconcerting for me to feel the rucksack move from side to side a tiny bit...
