Not Airsoft, but WTF case of MRES, Tent, Sleeping bag carrier.
« on: September 08, 2012, 01:02:05 AM »
As the title states, I'm looking for a case of Military Grade MRES, Option B. I'll take option A too. Looking for 50-60 dollars per case.

Also if anyone has any Military tents, USMC Eureka tents, ruck sacks, and sleeping bags with bag carrier, please let me know.

Thanks.

You can get them at surplus stores.

Paying close to $80-$100 at the surplus store to fill those greedy bastards pockets. Hell no! I'll try my chances with private sale.

I didn't know the prices. I didn't think they'd be that much, but I never really looked into it either.

no you can get them at surplus because its illegal, if you look at the package it says no re sale because soldiers were stealing them and selling them. go to the gun show tommorow there might be a guy there selling them outside

It's actually not illegal.  It says it's unlawful, but there's no law about selling them.

the only way they are legal is if expired

I'll take a look at allied and see what deals are going on. Sabertooth, come one man, get your facts straight. Just because its unlawful doesn't mean people aren't going to sell them, or have them. I just had MREs that were non expired, and to be tested and inspected in 2013, and 2014.

This why I never pay attention, or take advice from 13 year olds...you're no source information is worth shit.

Look on Ebay, you'll get MRE's A and B menu all day long. They average between 40-70 per case. Better deals are 5-10 cases at a time.

Phew, a lot of people today at the show. Grabbed a box today of 12, and a Sig 220. Thanks for the advice. These don' seem too legitimate but I'm gonna use them for camping and as a tester until I grab another box. Keep me posted if anyone comes across anything. Thank you guys.

MRE Star is actually a civilian company, not a military contractor. I hear they're better than military MREs, though.
