    FS - Improved Army Combat Tent by ORC

    Yes, it's a tent. There, I said it.

    Before I discovered all things hammock, I was exploring 'bombproof' MILSPEC gear. So, now that I have gone the full hammock route I am ditching the non-hammock items as I find it amongst my stored stuff.

    This is an ORC Industries Improved Army Combat Shelter. 1 person, ACU Digital Camo blackout fabric, integrated bugnetting.





    Ripstop Nylon, weight is about 6 lbs. (Bombproof yes, lightweight, NO) This is more of a bugout bag type piece of gear.

    $120 Shipped, Paypal please. PM with questions or if interested.

    interesting .....

    u have floor size? center height?

    shock corded section poles? 2 long that make and X across its length and a short top ... erm spreader bar?

    sorry for questions but I've often wondered about these.

    so its net tent with a fly cover? or tent with net doors sewn in on both long sides AND a fly?



    and yes I have looked at the product page and its not very informative to say the least lol

    thanks

    yes, shock-corded poles, x-over for the main tent with a single cross-support for the fly.

    Here is a link to the same tent listed on the UK ebay site (It has the best pictures of the tent that I have been able to find.):

    I've been trying to find the dimensions and so far I've come up stumps. Hopefully the above link will help answer some of your questions.
