Interesting. Any left?

Also, I have to say, while I do very much like Russian rations, why are there so many different variants? Just off the top of my head, there's:

Russian Army IRP 'Star' pack
Vegetarian MVD MRE (IRP)
Russian Mountain Ration / FSB
Russian Mountain Ration / Special Forces
Winter Ration 'white flecked' pack
Russian Army IRP - MG MRE
Russian IRP-BS Recon Forces Lightweight 24 hour
Russian IRP 'Sturm'
Russian IRP-P single meal
Russian Prison Guard 24 hour ration
Russian MRE 'EMERCON' Rescue Ration
Russian IRP Officer's Ration
Russian IRP Combat Increased 'Mud' pack
and now,
Rations for Aircraft and Helicopter crews at alternate airfields (RUSSIAN Air force)

Probably half of those aren't genuine military rations, just civilian ones. You'd have to ask someone knowledgeable on russian rations, like rufriend or prado to really find out which ones are real rations
On an impossible mission to get every ration ever :D

Looking for Vintage, rare and just plain strange items

It's hard to know. I've only ever seen pictures of Russian troops (army mostly) consuming the 'Star' ones or the 98% identical ones in the camo overpacks (probably the 'Mountain' rations). But seriously, if someone in an online / Ebay tomorrow started advertising a "Special Russian RARE Naval Dockside Janitorial Staff Alternate 'B Shift' Rations", would you really be surprised?

Too many variants, agreed. Rufriend is an honest seller though, fyi

Oh yeh, I'm pretty sure this ration and all the other ones he sells are real. But some of the ones you see on eBay and stuff are fake.

Wow, that's a lot.
There is also the non-mountain FSB: And
The survival bar: Plus the other 30 I'm forgetting

Thanks for the feedback, ViperGTS!

Yes, I don't sell commercial rations. Only those that are used in the army and in law enforcement agencies (in total, I sell three types of MRE-mountain, for internal troops and combined arms army)

I served in the Russian army myself. We had army rations. But we were not given them, they were stored in warehouses

some of them are exactly commercial or duplicate the same product with a different name

If you need Russian rations in different quantities, please contact me
