there so many tents out on the market that i have owned from civilian to military and the have been good but the one i find to be the best for everyon would be a Marine Corps combat tent i have spent my best and worst times in this tent and in all kinds of conditions and this tent has lasted 10 years and still running i have loved this tent from the day i was issued it. this is the website you can get it from if you would like one.

Nice tent...I have been pondering what type to get, value vs cost, size vs concealment...

I've been having a look at the Campright and Kookaburra enclosed cots, and although a tad expensive, a bit bulky, and a lot more luxurious than you'd probably take in a quick bug-out situation, one would be good for the type of trips I am taking around the country. Could easily set one up beside the car in most any rest area, and I wouldn't have to worry about finding trees or using poles/ropes/pegs for my hoochie. They keep you off the ground too, meaning less ground moisture and more comfort.

When in doubt, apply rule ·223 or ·308 -- unless you have a more preferred calibre.

I like the girl that is on the page :D

That was the other thing i was looking at but figured the hammock would pack up easier not having the frame.
