So 7228 is for someone who is 72” tall and has a 28” waists. Aka Beanstalk
So, then, my 6'3" skinny son would be a 7532? Wow. I'm not finding that anywhere.....

Looks like it's going to be more ammo for Christmas....

Smitty, thank you for your response!

Canadian Sizing

I'm looking to buy some Canadian military gear for my sons for Christmas, but I've run into a problem with sizing, specifically with pants. How does your sizing system work? In U.S., a size 36x34, or 3634, would be a 36" waist X 34" inseam. I assume metric is involved in the Canadian sizing, but I s...

Re: CUSTOMS STRIKES AGAIN! Contest give away. Norway unboxing.

I am so glad to see that you guys are staying positive and pushing forward with what you do. My experience lately has been that two out of the last thirty or so foreign shipments have been opened, and both of those were only minimally molested. I really hope that things swing back over to the more n...

Re: Anyone here concealed carry? (LEGALLY OF COURSE). If so, what’s your EDC/preferred gun?

Hey folks! As the title says, I’m looking for others here on the forums who concealed carry (legally). I personally carry everyday where legally possible. Take 5 seconds to throw my holster and belt on so why not. Years ago, my first CC was a Taurus .38 spl. Still use this as an average day carry. ...

Re: VERY RARE Scottish Army rations

This was the video that introduced me to Clive. LOVE this one. I was stationed in Holy Loch, Scotland '88-'90, so this one really hit home. Unfortunately, Clive has a limited number of ration reviews, which is a shame, because he does them so well. There are some absolute gems hidden among his mount...

Re: Dual MRE Review - 2015 Menu 11 Vegetable Crumbles with Pasta in Taco Style Sauce

Dude, this was an absolutely fantastic review. I love the dual reviewer formula, particularly when one reviewer is NOT a ration aficionado. Seriously, they add an element of impartiality that is so important when reviewing food.... Keep it up! I can't wait to see Maggie again! Thank you for sharing ...

Re: What does everyone collect?

Oh, and tarantulas. Or, rather, invertebrates. 29 tarantulas, five scorpions, three centipedes, and a hissing cockroach colony.
