That went out the window ~10+ years ago. The days of walking into the store and seeing a whole rack of NOS WW2 field jackets/shirts in your size are long over. Hell, it's getting harder to find the last of the 80's era surplus because:

>end of the Cold War and large conscript armies
>existing surplus inventory finally exhausted from decades on the market
>security fears of gear ending up in the wrong hands (terrorists, any type)
>most countries already pre-disposed to destroying old gear or gifting it to allies/clients (Ukraine) as an act of goodwill
>normies would rather buy commercial gear from civie companies like REI, patagonia, etc. which might actually be better for their purposes
>military surplus has a bad reputation among normies anyways (USGI is no longer a marker of quality, not even to the intended military-minded audience: see all the tacticool gear companies increasingly copying fashion industry marketing techniques)
>red flag laws making it risky for (You) to have that much military paraphernalia

I've been in this trade for longer than some of you shitstains have even been alive, and that's accounting for the time you spent as your fag daddy's jizz in his shriveled up balls so don't @ me zoomer retards.

If they want more people to donate their bodies - they really should start making some uniform clothing that isn't shitty again.

I guess the shitty amorphous camo bag is actually way better camo than if it fitted well and had a nice shape.
But camo doesn't really need to be worn in all situations either, especially not for the US military.

I think most camo is ugly, looks larpy, and draes too much attention majority of the time when all im doing is camping and shooting targets.

The closer you are to an urban center worth a damn the more homosexual milisurp become. It's also not as durable or timeless as you think. US digicam will always be shit, Flecktran is kinda gay now, and degenerates are attracted to it.

The average milsurp wannabe fashionista doesn't even pick good items that make any sense most of the time. Usually they just slap on whatever is the most expensive thing they could afford at their local overpriced surplus store (99% of the time it's fucking flecktarn) regardless of it fits then hurrrrr history. These are exactly the sort of aspergic wastes that can't pass a lower college level history class to save their lives but think that knowing all the different guns and planes from their milspo video games means they have a "deep knowledge of history".

Most people that shop milsurp places are airsoft spergs and for some reason that hobby has deep ties with weebs. There are weeb sites dedicated to making cringy patches of anime girls with guns. I think it has to do with weebs knowing deep down how faggy they look so they try to emasculate themselves with "guns." Also have you met airsoft hobbyists? Even the ones that aren't weebs are some of the most spergtastic, socially inept people I have ever met.
