Amazon Gear

[jdwelch93]

What are some of y’all’s Amazon gear items that have turned out to be jam up items in your pack?

I'm not fluent in southern English, so I'm unsure exactly what you're asking. However, there's a lot of stuff on the cheap gear thread that can be sourced from Amazon.

**** Amazon. I bought a bunk water filter replacement, a table saw that wobbled right out of the box. There's been other stuff from Amazon that turned out to be fake or bad, non-factory condition.

My bad.. I’m asking what have been some of everyone’s Amazon finds that turned out to be really convenient or beneficial. Mainly wondering about the off brand things that most people think wouldn’t last a day on the mountain and turned out to be a really good buy. I didn’t see the cheap gear thread. I’ll go over to that one and look.

Southern English definition:
Y’all: everyone or you all
Jam up: really good, convenient, beneficial, etc.

I know I’m getting old when I have absolutely no idea what the new terms mean.

Might just be a south Mississippi thing.

The BRS Stove and the miny usb lamps that weigh about a 1/10oz and plug into your power pack.
Pretty much everything else was/is Alibaba junk

Cheap Stuff that Works

Not everything should cost an arm and a leg. Post any inexpensive stuff you’d recommend that just flat works. I’ll start with a Mora 711. ~4.5 oz with sheath, easy to sharpen (and resharpen in field), and the textured rubberized grip is fantastic. Easy to grip and your hand doesn’t tire after...

Be warned - If you go into this thread it won't be cheap.

Nailed it. Informational? yes, Cheap? Not in the long run. Hahaha.

Like going to the Dollar Store. It's only $1, 50 items later. How the heck did I spend $50 in this place.

I recently bought the CV life bipod and really like it. Quality has been solid so far.
