If you are wanting traditional Rat packs (?) there is normally an annual group buy conducted on the forum. It UK rat packs as opposed to US MRE's.

Just thought I'd mention it.
I think because of the higher cost, and im cheap, i never even considered the commercial ones, ive gotten so used to calling my diy ones MRes, lol

Nice one, cheers.

I saw the alert in my emails but thought it was just spam after I bought the weatherproof admin pouch. I confess, much as the Tac Folder pleases and inspires me to fill it with pens and index markers, I realise how little I’ll probably actually use it.

£150 for the SF2 sleeping bag, and that gives you 10% off the bivvy bag. £210 for both isn’t too shabby.

£50 for an autumn/winter themed Swanndri ranger shirt. Decent price and I quite like that colour.

I was a bit late to the party on this one! Only S & XS left. Great price though.

Just randomly came across these 'dry bags' on the Ikea website. I haven't tried them, but for £2 they might be a bit of a bargain.

These do look good, theyve had them for a few years, I was tempted

I saw a post on breach bang clear yesterday of a 1200lm flashlight, only a few modes, dont think it even had strobe for $220.....just shows you dont need to spend much for a good flashlight

some of the ones on amazon that post hundreds of thousands of lumens are just lying however

My favourite brand of torch is Sofirn and they have an official Ali Express store. The SP40 head torch is one of my favourites, I use it every night in bed to read. They're like £14 on Ali Express.
