Welcome to the forums, Yaya34140.
Are you looking for the current issue LRRP (Meal, Long Rang Patrol) or one of the older, 1970s, LRRPs? If it's the current LRP, then good luck on eBay - I haven't seen very many of those around. But the Meal, Cold Weather (MCW) is supposed to be the exact same as the LRP but just packaged in white instead of tan and there have been a lot of those on the US eBay lately.
Good luck!

Ah finally, something I'm familar with 
The LRRP (Long Range Reconnaissance Patrol) ration was used in the 70's during the Viet Nam era and was based on a freeze dried entree (proper name was Food Packet, Long Range Patrol, but was usually referred to as LRRP, pronouced as "lurp") It could have been eaten dry (not very tasty) or rehydrated (better, but still not very tasty.) I believe it was replaced with the first generation of MREs in the 80's and then subsequently replaced with the what is known as the LRP and shared some components with the MCW, such as the freeze dried entrees. If you find an actual LRRP, it's more likely to be a collector's item rather than something that you might want to consume.
Your actual interest may have been the LRP that freeze dried entrees and many commercially available components. You should be able to assemble a comparable package using freezed dried camping foods and comparable locally available commercial products (not to mention that it will probably taste better as well. )
Additionally, you might also want to look at the thread on Swedish rations at viewtopic.php?t=181 and the commercially available products from Drytech in Norway, or various other freeze dried food manufacturers in Europe as a viable option.
