When the military has no more need
certain supplies they are often sold in bulk. These items usually include
clothing, blankets, patches, tags, tools, and other supplies. Sometimes even
vehicles are among the items are sold by the military, but hardly ever any type
of weapons or ammunition. Surplus supply store owners buy these items at a
cheap price from the military and then resell them to the public for a profit.
The buyers of these Military Surplus
supplies usually include campers, survivalists, paintball players, and
collectors. There is a good demand for these surplus supplies because they are
much cheaper than new items and are still in usable condition. These items have
been made well and are meant to withstand the test of time.
Have you ever gone camping and
realized that you were missing some of the stakes needed to anchor your tent
down to the ground? At a surplus supply store it is very cheap to buy a couple
of extra tent steaks to have for your next camping trip. How about if you need
to chop up some firewood and all you have is your trusty Swiss army knife. Why
not get a surplus survival hatchet? Tired of trying to sleep on the hard ground
while camping? A surplus blanket is cheap and thick and will provide you with
the warmth and comfort that you need to get a good night’s sleep. In just about
any outdoor situation surplus supplies can usually come in handy. So do
yourself a favor and look for surplus items before your next trip.
