Re: Next MRE symposium
I suggested that the next one be held in conjunction with The Big Reno Gun Show. They have three huge shows a year, the next one in August and then November. I don't know if there has been any followup. That would be a good location. The closeness of it isn't a big deal to me per se as I'm just gon...

Re: BlackDogBobs Big Sale 1000s of rations *EDITED*
Hey Bob, as I live in Kansas do you think you could give me an estimate of how much shipping would be for one of the EPA's? Curious so I have an idea of total cost, will be easier to see if I can afford it that way. Sure. I can ship an EPA via USPS priority medium flat rate for $13.85 So $63.85 tot...

Next MRE symposium
I saw a post about the second one being cancelled, and I'm not sure where to even post this topic. But can someone let me know if there's a second meetup in the works and if there is when? I regrettably missed the first one and am determined to make my way to the next.

Re: 1991 Brown Bag - Menu 5: Spaghetti with Meat Sauce
I'm surprised that maple nut cake was still fine. I've seen Steve suffer through rancid nuts in his reviews enough times to just expect brown bag MRE nut cakes to be rancid.

Re: Looking for rations
Thanks a lot guys I'll make a post in the introductions this evening. When I'm just starting out like this I'll go ahead and make a promise to review anything people send me the day I get it. (I know that won't be feasible if I get a large following like those guys but for now it might be a good inc...

Re: Looking for rations

Looking for rations
I've been looking to get into reviewing rations on YouTube after being a longtime watcher of folks like KiwiDude, Gschultz9, and Gundog4314. Do any of you have a good source for buying rations, or perhaps would be willing to sell me some yourselves? For my first review I'd like to do a Russian IRP (...

Re: German Reflective Packaging
177,000 standing military? That's barely more than the Versailles treaty allowed. I'm not in favor of having a massive and overfunded military in peacetime like the United States does but 177,000 isn't even sufficient for self defense

Re: German Reflective Packaging
My only thought when I saw kiwi dude review one was: "I'd be carrying this ration scared that when my unit stopped for a chow break an enemy sniper would catch the glint of my Hartkek package and take my head off"
