WTB 1940 and 1942 Production C Ration

Post by ChowLine » Mon Oct 11, 2021 3:52 pm

I am in need of two C rations to complete my WWII C ration B unit collection. I am looking for a 1940 production B unit, and the gold 1942 production B unit with markings on the body. I possess all other versions of C ration B unit produced between 1940 and 1945 except for these two (and the Aussie made one). If you have either and are willing to part with it, please message me.

I've think you should look at ebay. If you look every day (like me :D) you will definitely have a better chance of finding one there than here on the forum.

Many here don't want to sell things from their collections.

Ive picked up most of my rations from ebay since military shows and antique stores/ estate or garage sales in my area usually turn up nothing. Recently got a 1941 B unit from ebay actually. But its been awhile since either version I posted has popped up there, hence the post here.

you'd get a better price here. Those people on eBay pay ridiculous prices.
most wanted: RCIR, MCI/B units, IMPs, anything old, and a packet or two of RAFCO soup. PM if you've got these, or anything else to sell that isn't too expensive.

I'm looking for things as well. I guess all there really is - is ebay. Unless you get lucky and find something happenstance.

~BUMP~

I'm not really seeing much of anything on ebay for vietnam, korean war and ww2 rations. Really just a bunch of junk. What do you do? Just wait it out and keep checking everyday?

I have now acquired these two rations. Thank you to fellow ration enthusiasts who offered them up for sale, they have a great home now.
