Find all sorts of useful accessories in army surplus

When we think of army surplus we usually think of camouflage clothing, knives and helmets, but there are plenty of other useful items you can find when you decide to peruse the contents of an army surplus store or website.

You can also find lots of cool accessories such as authentic army dog tags, full size flags, various armbands and epaulettes and military timepieces. You can add sergeant’s bars to any army jacket with the addition of genuine chevron epaulettes and complete the illusion with a set of dog tags in black, gold or silver. An ID holder worn around the neck or as an armband can have a number of useful functions, such as carrying a fishing licence or displaying a hunter’s permit. Flags make great decorations for a bedroom, den or hunting club; some people even like to use them as curtains. Country flags, army flags or even a sinister looking skull and crossbones flag reminiscent of pirate ships all make great conversation pieces and are a creative way to add some pizazz to any room.

Army surplus accessories have a multitude of uses. Hunters and fishermen have a plethora of uses for them, as do other types of outdoor enthusiasts. Paintball players often wear camouflage clothing to help make them invisible in the woods, and some of them even go so far as to use camouflage face paint for the ultimate in invisibility. A camouflage net makes a great duck blind or it can be used in any situation when invisibility is required in the woods. You can also throw it over a vehicle such as an automobile, all terrain cycle or other equipment to conceal it from prying eyes. A clearview hide net conceals you while allowing you a perfectly clear view from the inside. Camouflage tape has as many uses as one can possibly think of; securing nets, attaching or covering items that need to be camouflages, or just to use because it looks cool.

Other army surplus equipment that you can find plenty of uses for includes the many different types of knives used by the military. Everybody remembers the famous Swiss army knife, with its many attachments, but there are plenty of other useful and versatile military knives available. Whether you need them for camping, hunting, fishing or just to carry in case of emergency, a high quality and highly versatile army knife can come in handy on numerous occasions.

Military tools are sought after items because of their compact size and durable nature. Because military tools are often carried on the backs of soldiers, they have to be lightweight and small while still being able to perform the functions they were intended for. That’s why items such as folding shovels, picks or entrenching tools are a great find indeed. These tools easily fit inside a backpack and can be very useful on a wilderness camping trip. Military means quality, so you know that military accessories are built to last.
