Got an old 'Alpha' M65. Any idea where I can get a good quality liner (Gary??)?
Looked on the web and can't seem to find a decent one? maybe me being thick though :roll: :o):
Silvermans sell button in liners.

Not sure if it is what youn are looking for but SASS have the Dutch Goretex Liners or you may find them in other surplus shops. I have one in my Soldier 95 jacket and it has never let the water in yet.

don't get too upset if you can't find a "Real" M65 Liner.
they aren't actually that great!
you are better off finding a substitute such as mentioned that can be worn as a jacket/layer in it's own right.
Alpha industries make a M65 liner "jacket" with pockets that looks a bit like a bomber jacket that serves this purposewell!!
Sorry for the delayed responce here - liners - OK I sell my jackets with the linets but they arent the ALPHA models and I not sure they would be compatable.
As well as my mil-spec jackets I own a 'Propper' jacket and the line from my milspec woun't attach as the buttons are all wrong.
I think your best bet here is bite the bullet and order from Silvermans (not a cheap option) or try for a supplier in the US.
SORRY
Give Rick a call at Frontline (Norfolk) he deals purly in US surplus mainly supergarde or new and he's got to be the cheapest that I have found, and don't forget to ask him for a catalogue. 01760-337897.
If he cant help, then it's got to be Silvermans.
Good Luck
