    TRADED: Goretex BDU Jacket

    FT: Military issue goretex woodland camouflage jacket

    Size Large - Long
    Fits chest sizes from 41-45" and heights of 71" or taller

    Pictures attached.

    Lining is in great condition. The only known flaw is a missing snap right underneath the "rank tab" at about sternum-height. The snap wasn't installed correctly, so it fell off within about a month of owning the jacket. I didn't miss it one bit, as the zip closure and other snaps keep the front well closed, and the hole remaining is only on the inside face of the outer flap, well sealed from the factory. I have included a picture of the location so you can see what I'm talking about.







    I am interested in any of the following:

    Commercially manufactured alcohol stoves like the Vargo decagon or triad, Esbit AB300, Trangia or similar. Needs to include pot stand if not integral to the stove. I already have cottage-built and home-built stoves for personal use, but I would like one that meets the BSA's Guide to Safe Scouting requirements.

    Amsteel

    550 cord

    Victorinox multifunction knives, like camper, hiker, or one-hand trekker

    silnylon

    BV500 or its similarly sized peers (Hey, I can wish).

    If we're mismatched on values I can throw in the matching waterproof pants. I can't remember if they are just the rain pants, or goretex rain pants. I can also throw in MRE's to balance things out if we need to.

    I've got 2 pieces of sil I traded off someone on here, meant to be made into a winterstyle tarp. 2 pieces approx 4.5 yards each. Along with about a yard of oxford and 2 yards of 1/2" webbing for the tieouts.

    I recieved them, and never got around to trying my hand at making the tarp.

    Sil color is grey, oxford is black.

    How wide is the silnylon?

    I'm going to mull on this offer for a bit. If it were all a single piece of sil I would be jumping on it, but the pattern I had in mind needs a 5yd piece intact.

    For those of you who answered the poll with "Give us MRE's" let me know how many you want and what you would like to trade.

    Ok.. well this is aggravating..

    The pieces are 13' long each 60" wide.. Guess I need to double check these things when they come in.
    Although, they do appear to be first quality.. (like I was told they were) no print defects, and no silicone imperfections that I can see or feel.

    Just figured I'd offer, you asked for Sil

    HK. I'll take your offer. I don't know why I was being so slow to accept.
    So OneEye sends HK201 a military jacket & pants in exchange for 2 pieces (approximately 13' each) of gray silnylon, some oxford and webbing.

    Hardhead,

    How many MRE's did you want for the patrol bag & bivy? (or did I misunderstand and you were looking for the jacket I just promised away?)
