New here. Looking for rations

Post by Basementcat » Wed Jul 12, 2017 5:46 pm

Hey all,
I'm new here and very interested in rations. I'm looking for c rations and earlier rations of every type as well as the accessory kits etc. More interested in the older ones as pieces of history and mini time capsules. I'm looking to buy if possible so I can show my children what they look like in real life and not just on a YouTube channel. I'd love to collect and have a chance to try some of the older rations. Feel free to pm me with whatever you might want to sell. Once I have a small collection I'll be into trading and posting reviews and videos etc. thanks for your time.

Howdy Basementcat,

Welcome to the boards!

There are several sellers here on the boards with lots of good foreign rations (modern), I have not seen much in the way of older rations for sale here on the boards but you can find a decent selection of them on ebay.

Cheers,
j.

Drew78 is a great source for some of the older rations. I'm sure there's more sellers but I don't know what they have.

Your best bet is Ebay.

Thanks for the replies. Honestly I'm willing to take a look at anything. Newer or older. Foreign or USA. My kids and I have been watching a lot of YouTube videos and they're very interested in all of it.

This is what I posted in the other thread requesting sources

welcome to the forums. Several folks on here are good sources for rations/MREs depends on what you're looking for.

Regular US MREs are easy to find locally or on ebay.

For more specialized US MREs and/or international MREs you have me, Sniip3r, Drew78 (gballz), sourwes and a few other sellers here and on ebay.

http://www.ebay.com/usr/sourwes

All those guys are awesome sellers and many on here can vouch for them.


By the way welcome! Great to see new faces here :D
