Military Mart. ...Be warned

[RE8ELD0G]

I will only ever be using fresh meat, jerky, tinned food or dehydrated meals. so will never use it as a frying pan.
Been having a play and cant believe it burns for 30mins on one fill, and boils 2 kutska 700ml of water in less than 10 mins or less than 5 for one kutska.
So far im very impressed.

All i got to do now is find a nice design to engrave into it to make it more one off.

[ex member pyrophil]

[Dave]

Ive ordered stuff from them before with no probs.

 

[ex member pyrophil]

My sat came today, no problems, its in "very" good nick. was posted my royal mail, so i dont know what that email from hermes was about lol.
Never seen one before, only in pictures, its a bit bigger than they look. You can easy cook stuff in the lid. Not sure what drinking out of it would be like, metal cups i have used before i find burn your lips.
Have to see what my boy thinks of it, he will have fun using it.
Top marks to military mart. thanks

 

[mitch66]

ITS NOT A TRANGIA, Trangia made some of the burners but thankfully had nowt to do with the rest of this abomination of design so please don't associate these 'stoves' with my real beloved Trangia's.

http://www.trangia.se/english Are real Trangia's





Sent from my i7 super quick PC that I love almost as much as all my Trangia's.

 

[Gray]

Yeah, the SAT stoves are not really trangias, they're just referred to as such because of the burners. I quite like em though even though i dont know why, it might be because i just bought 5 gallons of methanol and cant afford anything else

Well.. lured by their apparently good stocks of various Swedish milsurp items, I drove the hour or so to Ormskirk this afternoon, and had a great time, and came away with some really good stuff and very good prices. Paul (one of the brothers that runs it) was very pleasant and helpful. It really is an aladdins cave, piled high with gear of all sorts.

I came away with:
Dutch (or Belgian ?) super-heavy super-grade wool blanket x1
Swedish M59 shirts used x4
Swedish M90 parka used x1 (ready for the Barbondale meet !)
Swedish '92 dated unissued polycotton/leather mitts with removable wool-mix pile liners (new line)
British army work gloves pair used x2

Chuffed with all these items for the price I paid. The only advice I can offer to people, is to visit in person if you can. If you must mail-order, phone to check on availability and condition of items. I'm sure if you asked nicely they would select to meet your criteria.

[mentalnurse]

I must say the same. Had some great stuff but always go in person and pick the stuff i want can spend ages going though boxs and stock.

 

[abominable_scouse_monster]

I am hoping to be poping in before christmas if any one wants anything picking up I am more than willing too.

 

[bushcraftkid2001]

At the bushcraft show this year( can't wait till the next one) I virtually lived in military mart and all the stuff I bought is great, I can't see any faults!!

 

[GGTBod]

I buy from them regularly online, had a few slightly slow deliveries but no real hassle, waiting for a delivery right now from them, best buy of real paracord for miles around at £1 for 5 meters.

No affiliation

 

[ozzy1977]

I will not use them again, 3 times I have had problems with out of stock items, but showing as in stock on the website, I know some people say it is best to phone this may be but why have stock numbers shown? and trying to get a refund from them is like pulling teeth from a greased pig. and they seem to have an aversion to answering emails unless it is about making a purchase, after sales emails don't hold your breath.

 

[Tristar777]

Hi Ive had a few orders from MM with no problems. But then last month I ordered a sleeping bag I was going to take to the Moot, and after the money had come out of PayPal and the number changed on the web I thought all was well. I then got an email a week later saying that my order was cancelled and I have been refunded. I looked on the web and it was still showing stock available so I sent a nice email asking what the problem was and can I order the bag again as there was still stock. No reply. I found the same bag on another site and had it in my hands three days later without extra postage and in better condition than I had previously received from MM. I certainly will not be using MM again as there customer service is rubbish. JMHO.

 

[bushcraft kid]

they are good just email them about the item you want to buy first
