Hi all,

Just to add one i have come across whilst researching the Viet-Cong.
It has most items here
"Black Pajamas"
"Water Canteen"
"VC Sandels"
Not a bad site really, and will let you know what the service is like once i have ordered some items.

a good site for some oddities/rareties...www.jmurrayinc1944.com
some items a bit pricey and shipping from the US is no longer as cheap as it was but...i picked up a couple of mint m56 short pouches for $50 the pair
well worth a look

just remembered another one
www.omahas.com
has a selection of original gear...just type in Vietnam in search
i have dealt with this vendor and had no problems....some items a third the price of the same on ebay....neckerchiefs,69 dated,OG109,.....$5.95 EACH.....also rifle butt pocket assembly for the lightweight ruck....$9.50 EACH....both being NOS
you gotta hunt around US surplus sites...takes time but there are some stunning bargains to be had
www.sirplussupply.com
again have dealt with and impressed by service...M60 wrench...$9.00 NOS in packing dated 67...would like to hear from anyone who found one of those in the UK

now i know a lot of people are gonna hate me for saying this but
re any US gear on sale on SOF is overpriced and underworked....ie...quality...BUT....there are a few exceptions
all I'm saying is guys...please shop around first....why look an ijit with all SOF gear when you could kit out in other stores cheaper
SOF are the Silvermans of gear....good sometimes but f*****g expensive.....another but...everyone has their own price though
i must say that my previous dealing with SOF was excellent and no problem....my mates past 5 dealings with them have been atrocious
luck of the draw i suppose
shop around
