military gear de-hoard needed

Just a feeler...Have to clear out some footlockers of some military stuff, I have a good bit. Most is just soft stuff like clothing, hats, gloves, uniforms. But I do have some desert camo gear, as well as plenty of other stuff in the more current, but now outdated ACU pattern. Also a few pairs of ballistic glasses, goggles, boots, and some bags. Not sure if I'm parting with my dozen or so pelican cases, but i could part with small and large heavy plastic hardig footlockers.

Always looking for some defender parts for trade. Let me know what you are after. I dont really have pics (yet), but here's an idea of my basement storage of just military stuff. I would imagine some of others on here can relate to the horded collection of gear over the years, and likely some of you can put my collection to shame. Too bad Army/Navy places dont buy up old gear anymore.

It would really help you pimp these good used items if you stated the size and description of the items and if you have a gorilla suit for a 7 foot tall Uncle Douglas to impersonate sasquatch on Portsmouth Is.

Just saying, it's like me saying hey guys, I'm going to tease you with all these Land Rover parts, but I'm not going to take any detailed pictures or tell you specifically what I have, but will trade for some unknown military foot locker gear.

BTW this is just a feeler for something you have no clue what might be possibly available on Wednesday, but only if you can trade some brown rag wool socks Friday after next.
Check out the long distance picture of the stuff packed and hanging up so far away that you can't tell what's available.

Lol! I read the thread title and was 100% sure this was a Joshman thread. He is the reigning KING OF GEAR.

Point taken, I'll return with some more info. Some stuff is not sized, but much of it is.

Sorry man, irony is one of my driving factors for those that are literal... just could't resist the way you left the thread open to the inaccurate lack of specifics.

I've got this stuff and well who the hell knows what it is, but I'll sell it...
The next frame in the bubble gum comic is Bazooka Joe with a puzzled look with a caption reading WTF?

Now you need to come up with some good gear to make up for the ribbing you're getting!

At least I know there's some curiosity at minimum, which is enough for me to start pulling it apart. I'll work on it and post back.

Sorry, no excess helmet's.

I’ve got a kid going to ROTC basic camp this summer. If you have any gear you recommend he consider for this let me know and I’ll put you in touch.

I would be interested in a few Hardig cases - our Scout Troop needs new Patrol boxes!

I knew we would hear from you on that long standing joke...
It was the most obscure and funny thing I could think of that seemed to fit into the vagueness of the items for sale, because who knows what's packed away in those cases?

Most of the stuff in that picture is now gone to the great joy of my saintly wife.
It took a while to find the correct image to "match up" to the photo in post 1.
