    Wait until the Fishing exhibition in the show centre becide the airport, usualy on in Jan/Feb. Wait til the Sunday and they have great deals, i got a Pinewood Realtree suit(excellent gear) for 150, its that for the bottoms alone here.
    If you buy cheap camo, it usualy wont be waterproof/windproof, silent matieral and fades very easily so you will most likley have to buy another one after a short period where if you buy one good suit it will be all of those and cost the same as two not so good suits, ye get my drift??
    At the end of the day, good or cheapo camo is no match for the dreaded barb wire fences:mad:

    If you want affordable decent stuff try to scrounge the surplus websites and look for NATO standard ripstop material but as BMB said, quite often not waterproof though.

    I got a gunsafe in Woodies!! It cost €220. It holds about four guns, has a locked compartment inside for documents ammo etc. It weights a ton and has a solid lever locking systen all around the door. Great value for money.

    Saw those and I am impressed also do a nice safe for ammo. Out of interest do they comply with the relevant BS standards, Sorry for being nerdy:o

    Not a breeze! Alls I know is its big and cheap and a burglar or child (or my wife) cant get at the guns without the keys.

    REgards


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 586 ✭✭✭Deer Hunter DL


    i use cabelas all the time they will send the gear to you via UPS or international surface i used UPS once and got stung for the import tax

    Surface shipping and handling is 25% of the total order amount or a minimum of $20.00.

    Air delivery (ups) is 45% of the total order amount or a minimum of $40.00.


    go for the surface shipping its every bit as fast i ordered wet gear for my girlfriend on a sunday night and i had it on the thursday thats what i call service

    heres my camo outfit i got it on a 60% sale back in januray

    Was in Amsterdam 2 weeks ago, some great army surplus stalls in a small market . Got a great jacket not too heavy but warm and waterproof with big zip and full strip of velcro down the front, hood waist and bottom ties.
    €25.00.
    Very similar to the Irish army jackets, all sorts of army surplus in great condition , only had hand luggage no room for any more

    Was up in Nordie land yesterday evening , one of the hunting and fishing shops is matching all internet prices , as long as you have proof of asking price.

    Got a brochure he sells,camo , boots , lamping equip, targets, scopes etc
    basically everything for shooting and fishing.

    So if you need aguide price i have a brochure.
