BlindBrick 0 #2 March 4, 2005 QuoteG'day folks, I do not want to go to the manufacturer unless I really have to. That's good, becuase you can't. Due to liability concerns, the company now refuses to sell to anyone other than military. As much as I choke on saying it, check with Ralph at Western Parachute Sales. He's got a good selection of military surplus gear. Just be aware that he's the type where calling him ulttra shifty might be an ungrade over what people usually call him. -Blind"If you end up in an alligator's jaws, naked, you probably did something to deserve it."

Check with the guys that do sport HALO jumps I am sure they have the hook up. www.halojumpers.com i think is their site. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

alex_778 0 #8 March 5, 2005 Thanks for all the help and advice. I have last night noticed a guy on ebay selling MT1-XX's. I contacted him but he will not sell to a non US resident. Anyone in Florida willing to spend $500 on my behalf and I'll send the cash over and collect the rig in two weeks when I'm over? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
