>>1447935Right and wrong on some points:
>Same price as civilian stuffNot the same price as civilian stuff, not if you know where to buy and know what you're looking for
>Heavier awkward designs Heavier usually but it does depend, somewhat awkward although not really harder to use imo
>Often ugly as shit Aesthetics depend on the user
>Awkward materialsDepends on what you buy, which nationality it is from often plays a huge role
>Doesn't have cool innovationsPretty much universally true although not always
>Often missing critical partsBuy grade 1 or higher surplus and you won't have this issue. Any store which doesn't grade their stock isn't worth buying from, I've only ever had damage on Grade 2 items and only major damage on one (Congo smock from the 50s, stiff zipper and missing buttons)
>Beat upSee above
>Manufactured for lowest manufacturing costYes and no, again it depends on which nation you buy, use your brain when buying and avoid combloc at all costs
>Terrible cuts or uglyAgain opinion and it depends on what you buy and who it came from. Most of my jackets aren't designed for it armour at all, just don't buy super modern stuff because it's not better
>They often look autistic or tacticoolDepends on if you overdo it and again what surplus you buy. Stop buying the most modern up to date surplus and you won't have this issue
>they are tough etcYes they are, probably exactly the same as civilian stuff although I don't own much of it, but they're also a lot cheaper if you buy in the right place
>Some milsurp was never even used by militariesYou retard, if it wasn't used by a military it isn't milsurp. Military Surplus, not hoong chi noi trading company surplus. Also mil-tec is bottom barrel shit tier and is mall ninja. Not even a valid point on that last one, you're literally complaining about non milsurp not being used by militarys
Milsurp is perfectly fine if you take it for what it is. Cheap, second hand, decent gear. Not a £100 Berghaus coat
