Looking for a USMC-MARPAT field tarp

Post by Bypah » Wed Nov 11, 2009 12:08 pm

I'm looking to buy a reversible USMC tarp.the one that is ripstop with the MARPAT in one side and coyote brown on the other.
I hope to get one used but in good condition and affordable price. :wink:
Let me know...

This tarp is quite large. It's hard to tell from the above picture.
