I can order a brand new MSS sleepsystem.
which I like to do due to not being too lucky with used bags.
I thought that somewhere I heard that Tennier the only manufacturer was?
Now I learnt that this one is made by MHF int.corp. is that good or bad?
And does this MSS have a cotton liner bag, or how do they keep their bags clean?

anyone any experience with their product?
Cheers,

I've gone down the brit sleep system. It's a copy of the Carinthia, lightweight bag, liner and medium weight bag. Wrap them all together and it's a full winter bag. I'm assuming it fits into the issue bivvy bag. Probably a fair bit cheaper too;


£150 pound all in bar postage and EU custom charges.

I think that's currently the best offer if we talk about low budget equipment.

I recently called Fecsa and asked if I can get that somewhere in the EU, and they were very surprised because they don't deliver to normal shops.

Are you sure that you don't mean 'MFH' as the manufacturer? If so, this is a relatively cheap make, and I doubt that they manufacture genuine issue bags, but rather commercial copies. Even so, the quality may be good - i've not seen one - but more of a gamble than if you were to purchase a genuine issue item/an item made by the government supplier.
 
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 else :-(
