crusader cups

Gange.
A question is there a difference between the crusader cup and the usgi cup and are they about the same size?.

Cheers

yup, the crusador has a diffrent shape, is larger, heavier, has markings on the side telling you how much water there is in it and in mine opinion beter made (and more expensive).

also, the usgi stove stand is not as good - not contained like the crusader - it's just a stand and you need a flat rock to put the fuel on........no good for meths!
CC is much better, and although a bit pricey new, they can be found cheaper. i put my entire set-up together for just over £20 - CC, plastic cup, canteen, stove, hanger, lid and plce pouch
look on the bay, or ask a round on here for individual bits

Saying that, the crusader doesn't fit into a swedish army trangia, whereas the dutch and us versions do! The ally ones will leave you with a burnt lip, I've never burnt my lip on the flared rim of a crusader mug, and I've used one for long enough. They are also good for scraping out fire bowls and digging small holes!
