I finally found one after several years of looking.
on: January 01, 2014, 12:00:01 AM
Yes, I finally got lucky after looking for several years for a US Army EOD mine probe set from Gerber. This time, I found a USGI Sapper Pack. Part of my collection is a Gerber military sub-collection. The Mine probe kit is hard to find. I have never seen this sapper pack before...but it does contain that mine probe set. Call me happy.

The image below is from the Ebay seller i*sell*sweet*stuff*.



Now to X fingers so that it gets to my door.  :gimme:

They are for Canadians I think. I don't frequent eBay USA as 99% of sellers won't ship north of the border.

Thanks lowtech, but I just bought one so I won't need another. Yeah, they do show up on Canadian eBay once in a while for astronomical prices. This set was cheaper than what I have seen the mine probe alone go for listed on eBay.
