ISO asian rations

Post by ancienttyrael » Thu Jun 30, 2016 4:52 pm

I'm a big rice eater at the house and would like to try it in a ration. I had the fried rice pack out of an mre before and that was..... an adventure to say the least :P

I seen Chinese rations in eBay all the time but I'm afraid of ordering from anyone there, that market is too sketchy for me.

Let me know if you guys find anything, I got nothing to trade at the moment (cept 22 rounds).

Try looking for Japanese rations on Ebay, they pop up every now and then!

There are commercial south korean rations on eBay. But they look like over priced bags of rice with seasonings. I may be wrong.
Good luck and may your rations stay unspoiled!

I've purchased Chinese rations on eBay multiple times and have had good luck so far. At least they're inexpensive enough to risk it once if you're apprehensive about it. And like cavguy said, keep an eye on eBay for the Japanese rations that come up from time-to-time.

I've tried the Korean ones on eBay, and yes, they appear to be camo/OD commercial items.

Who would you recommend on eBay for Chinese rations?

You can buy Japanese ration with buyee which Ruleryak introduced before.
http://buyee.jp/?lang=en

Japan SDF Combat Ration Type II
http://buyee.jp/item/yahoo/auction/p520079642
http://buyee.jp/item/yahoo/auction/o149266285

It became very difficult to get South Korean ration because of the ration sale-through-illegal-channels incident in the South Korean Forces of several years ago.
And the JSDF ration in the auction decreased sharply because of the ration sale-through-illegal-channels incident in Japan SDF this year... :cry:

With tensions high between China and every other country in the region, maybe they're restricting sales so they have more rations in stock in case the North and South China seas become blood baths?
Good luck and may your rations stay unspoiled!
