With Austrian troops climbing ev'ry mountain and wearing these fatigue caps. In dark olive drab, with little vent holes and that Austrian army target-like red and white circle logo on the peak. Pre-worn in Austria for your convenience. In Euro size 54/55, which is US small, 6-3/4 to 6-7/8.

Get in touch with your inner Schweizer with an aluminum Swiss military canteen cup. Surplus, and yours might even have a genuine Swiss dent or two. In a perfect oblong, unlike the U.S. kidney shape, they hold 14 oz and measure 4" x 2-3/4” x approx 4” tall with a pair of 2-1/2” folding handles that work better than the U.S. cup handle. All in all, the Swiss seem to have been way ahead of us, canteen-cup-wise.

Like the ones Johnny Carson wore? No, like the ones the Swiss military uses to handle Nuclear, Biological or Chemical stuff. NBC. These are new, still in the package, olive drab-ish, in a mysterious plastic-like material, 18-3/8” long x 7-1/2” wide, and are constructed like mittens with index fingers, the better to free up your trigger-finger, we assume. Our each is (3) pairs, complete with rubber loops to secure them to your forearms. When worn, they give you an (uncooked) lobster-like appearance, so costumers take a hint.

You’ll need a map case. From the pre-smartphone world, where military maps still live. These are 11" x 6-1/2" folded, and they open to a clear 16-1/2" x 20" window with a zippered top on one side and a 7" x 4-1/2" x 5/8" flapped pocket with (5) pen holders on it. Close with hook-n-loop fasteners and have a 42” long adjustable and removable shoulder strap. You pick olive digital camo or desert digital camo versions.

Nah, we don’t know either. It’s an olive drab canvas bag 30” x 29” in a vaguely torso/chubby clover shape, e.g. with approx 8” bump-outs at the the top and on two upper sides. Like a garment bag for a fancy dress uniform with a giant collar and big epaulets. (OK, we made that up, but still.) Has a double zipper over the top, canvas handle grips, and adjustable 40” straps so it can be worn like a backpack. (French vets are encouraged to call us and explain.)

These aluminum canteen cups are definitely from somebody’s army, we just don’t know whose. They hold 20 oz and measure 3-3/4” tall x 5-1/8” ID in a kidney shape with a pair of fold-out 3” x 2-3/8” handles on one side. Most of them have some rust-preventing grease on them, so a good cleaning before use is advisable, but when isn’t it?

Keep your powder dry and your canteen cold. Can’t help you with that powder thing, but this insulated camo canteen holder folds together and holds via hood-and-loop strips. Has a 5/8” ID grommet and a big hook-and-loop patch on the back to secure it. Measures approx 3-1/2" x 2-1/2" x 5" inside with room for adjusting.

US Navy Mk1 Mod5 gunsight reticle. In classic "ladder" pattern. Came to us in a lot of antique 1940's Eastman Kodak Military grade lenses and reticles. This unit was part of an illuminated cannon sight or gunsight. Might be a bit dusty or tarnished, but still looks pretty good for their age.

No, you don’t need Bulgarian shoulders to carry this well used M-36 shoulder bag from the Bulgarian army. Measures a purse-like 12” x 10” x 2+” in a soft cotton (we think) olive drab canvas. Has a 7-1/2” flap, a leather strap/buckle closure, and a buckled 45” shoulder strap. Just the thing for toting a couple hunks of sujuk and a bottle of rakia for your lunch.

Or peg o’ our tent, or something. Our each is a set of (6) aluminum pegs, 10" long x 1/2" OD x 3/8" ID cut at 30 degrees at the bottom for driving-into-the-ground efficiency, and drilled at the top to take 50 feet of 1/16” dia white nylon polyester rope (included). We’re pretty sure this was all used to stake something down, we just don’t know what. Whaddya got?

We think these started life in the Chinese military, but they won’t say. They’re small garment bags in a heavy rubberized fabric. Measure 24" x 15-1/2” x 5-1/2" but have a set of double-snap male closures with (3) alternate sets of female clips so you can keep it full length, fold it once, or roll it up to 1/3-size. Has zippers halfway down for loading ease, and the handle will detach and re-attach in another position when folded smaller. Also has a 2” x 1-1/2” ID-card slot.

Red is the new olive drab. Unless it’s navy blue, or orange, or camo. You pick from our rainbow of new repro bags designed like German Field Medic’s bags, in heavy-duty 22-oz cotton canvas with a pair of leather buckled straps and adjustable web shoulder strap in black, and a white cross on a red circle on the front flap. Bags measure 11-1/2” x 12-1/2” x 3-1/4”.

Or pflöcke und stöcke maybe. Und strick (rope). These are tent pegs, sections of poles and rope from the East German military, which has been kaputt for some time. You’ll get (10) pole segments at 15-1/2" long x 15/16" dia that will interlock, plus (14) 9-7/8" long x 1-1/2" galvanized steel stakes, and (5) 48" x 3/16" dia lengths of pre-knotted rope, all in a camo pouch. Better go find some German canvas.

Well then, you’ll need a little light military bag in olive drab cotton, from Bulgaria. Has a flap with an adjustable buckle strap to hold it down, and an adjustable buckled shoulder strap to sling over your shoulder. Measures 12” x 11” x 2-1/2”. Might have a touch of schmutz, which is just proof of its surplus-ness, of course, but it’s cotton, so pop it in the wash.

Survival bracelets, actually. These are braided paracord, and quite attractive, but unbraid them and you’ve got (7) feet of military grade (per the mfr) paracord with a safe working load of 100 lbs and a max working load of 550 lbs. Bracelet closes with black snap closures. Mildew and abrasion resistant. In black, royal blue, red, purple-ish gray with black edges, and camo. We’ll pick, but order two or more and we’ll try to send different colors.

Couldn’t tell you, but it’s what soldiers put in this bandolier from the Chinese military. Measures 27” long x approx 5” high with (10) ammunition pockets at 1” x 4-1/2” (think Snickers bar size) with flaps closed by frog-like catches with wooden pegs. Includes adjustable 38” shoulder straps, too.

Made to protect the noggins of British army cadets, these new, heavy black plastic Airsoft MK7 training helmets measure approx 11” x 9-3/8” x 7-1/2”, like a head, and are adjustable to fit yours. They feature a slight integral bill and ear coverings. The adjustable chin strap has ear pads and a quick-release latch. Made in the UK, because, well, they’re for their army.

This is a British military folding knife and, unlike the Swiss, they think sometimes a knife is just a knife. This one measures 3-3/4” long with non-slip black sides, a blunt 2-1/8” sheepsfoot blade and a serious can opener. Non-locking but with a tight action and a 9/16” loop at one end. It’s a workhorse, and might want a drop or two of oil.
