Brit Mess Gear

[Spork, Lord of Lime Jello!]

Does anyone use the Crusader cup and stove unit? What about the Mess tins and Hexi stove?

[Mike, Lord of the Spammers!]

I've used the cup for years

Never used the cooker though

The Crusader is not actual issue is it? Is there a issued mug other than the plastic one on the P58 Barely Grilled pee bottle?

This thread is so boring that Mike isn't even going to bother taking it off topic 

[Mike, Lord of the Spammers!]

It is issue now I believe

I'd say get one mate, as they really are a fantastic bit of kit

Pics please.

I haven't used the hexi stove for years but if memory serves it was...OK.  IIRC the slightest breeze steals all the heat away so careful placement or calm weather is a must.  No experience with the rest but I only hear good things about the crusader cup and the stove looks interesting.

I recently rigged up a USGI Cup stove using an issue cup stand, a canteen cup body and a couple of skewers.

Burns wood and charcoal too.

That's a great looking set up Dave.

I suppose I don't need the Crusader...I just have a small obsession with military mess gear.

[Mike, Lord of the Spammers!]

That's a fine looking rig Dave mate

Dude, those look pretty sweet. I like to eat out of my camp pot though, so I don't collect stuff like that.

I ordered a Crusader and cooker along with some Greenheat to try out.
