i'm starting my research on an army poncho for my BOB...but I dont know much about them.
I've heard that they have multiple uses and would like to find out more about them to see if this would be a good fit for me. Got a few questions:
1.) where can I get the real thing - a good quality one?
2.) what are some of the things I should be looking for when buying one?
3.) How much should I expect to pay for one?
4.) Are there any options that I should get if I want to use it as a shelter and sleep system? (i've heard of liners, bivy?)
5.) how well do they breath when being worn as rain gear? Should I consider this as my main rain gear or should I get something else like actual rain gear?
Anything you guys can share regarding the army poncho would be appreciated!
