Hey All,
I'm trying to find a surplus source for these USMC issue tents they have been in service for a few years so there must be some out there;
http://military.eurekatents.com/tents/ecwt.html
http://military.eurekatents.com/tents/combat.html
http://military.eurekatents.com/tents/tcop.html
I can get the Combat Tent and the TCOPS directly from Eureka but they are not in production for the ECWT and do not have any stock or spares.
Cheers,
Chris

There was an ECWT on e-bay last week. For the other two you can try www.us-elitegear.com they should have them.
Edit: The ECWT auction seems to have ended. Sorry. Check e-bay regulary they have them now and then, I got five oof them there.

Keep an eye on Govliquidation. All surplus material goes through there before it enters commercial markets.

Hey Jeroen,
Looks interesting do you have the tech specs for them? I'm living in Southern Spain near the Sierra Nevades.
Cheers,

Tks. is that govliquidation.com? Eureka tells me that the gov has not renewed thier contract because they have several thousand in inventory
which means potentially there should be soem nice brandy new tents hopefully comeing to market for a lot less than the current going rate :)
Cheers,
Chris
The tent is the same as the eureka
ripstop nylon,side pockets,sometimes a loft.1us camo fly 1 winterfly 1 tent.
The tent got a large door with upside downzippers [important for cooking inside, ventilation]
At both ends there are 2 iglo doors to get out of the tent when the wind did turn..
The winterfly foto was taken in Andorra last november.
