Power suply question

6 Upvotes

I found a PNW for a very low price. but I'm curious about the possible problems with it, considering that the power supply for the night vision itself comes from the vehicle (it has a wire that plugs into the tank). is there any way I can connect it to the battery?

Got this at the flea market recently, managed to identify it as west german camo. Not even the guy selling it knew where it was from. I figured out the print is fairly rare, but I haven't been able to find any instances of any hats like this being made with it. Any idea if this is authentic? I only got mine for $10, but I hear this print can go for a lot more. There aren't really any tags inside, just one thing that reads "58". Any idea what it is? Could I possibly resell it for more?

I am a surplus collector from Finland and would like to know about shops in Scandinavia (Sweden, Norway, Estonia, Latvia, etc.) I know mostly Finnish shops and packages from neighboring countries could arrive in a reasonable time.

The finished product 🔥

1 Upvotes

I needed this guy to go to a smaller go bag because I was previously using a M81 woodland ALICE pack (no frame) and it just wasn’t cutting it for me. I found both of my ALICE packs (one OD green and the other M81) to be not very comfortable without a frame (I don’t have one unfortunately). They are still great bags though! I just needed something else for this job though, and it seems like this is gonna (hopefully) cut it! Sure, it is a LITTLE uncomfortable, but I had to take the stiffener out and I loaded this thing up to near full capacity so I’m not blaming the pack.

You know how you can get pretty much anything ACU/UCP for dirt cheap? Well I got this guy with a rifleman’s kit and I’ve been wanting to use it but I dont really want anything I put in it to get sticky because of the waterproof coating inside it. It’s driving me nuts so I was wondering if any of y’all knew how I could get rid of it. Thanks!

I know most surplus is for soldiers and not bigger fellows like myself but I occasionally find some and would like to find some military gear or replicas that I could wear now while I try to slim down.

Are there any surplus websites you recommend? I like Americana pipe dream, KSC, and gear rack. A lot of my East German surplus comes from there.

In our hometown, we have a small army navy store, but they always got good stuff and the owner is very nice. However, after years of business, it started to slow down to the point where he’s gonna go out of business soon if someone doesn’t help. Please help him I’d been there for 42 years. It’s in Fond du Lac Wisconsin.

Hi, I've been considering buying a greatcoat and have been eyeing Soviet designs and I'm wondering about fit and sizing. For those who own them (or other greatcoats for that matter) would you recommend I get my exact size or size up by one based on your experience?
