Overwatch Downunder said:CT: Before you go on a CADPAT witch hunt, read the fine print on this item......
From the ebay item 290281627080 from info given by CT.
"I am extremely impressed with the quality of the uniform that you sell. I've served 27 years in the Canadian Army (PPCLI) and your version of the combat uniform is by far the best that I've seen.
Furthermore, yours is the only after-market Canadian uniform that I've seen with the correct double-layer reinforcement of the shoulders, elbows, seat & knees. Likewise, yours is the only version featuring the dust-cuffs on the trouser legs.
All of the above to say that the uniform you sell is heads and shoulders above the competition, including genuine "real deal". I was very pleasantly impressed by the quality of the uniform that I received from you last month and just wanted to share my thoughts with you"
For the record, I know the man who made this comment to this ebay seller.

So, it is either not CADPAT or it is a pirate product.Overwatch Downunder said:.... the only after-market Canadian uniform that ...
BinRat55 said:Well, he even quotes the proper Nato Stock Code and size for a pair of CadPat gloves... the pic is pretty convincing that the kit is real.
BinRat55 said:Hey...LOL...did anyone know that "Esquimalt" spell checks to "Asexuality"????
Interesting....
BinRat55 said:GEO - I would only assume that MP 811 is the proper authorities... well, when he was in Esquimalt anyway - I think that is what he was meaning - he would be performing an investigation on this yahoo...
R. Jorgensen said:Well, guess what I found on eBay today?
A) Definately NOT an after-market production
B) The description clearly states that it's an original; has been used but is in flawless condition; not a copy.
AR CADPAT, NATO Sizing 7044 (The jacket) and pants are NATO 7034.
I do believe whether this guy was or is a member of the Canadian Forces or not this would be illegal?
(I was actually looking for a Keffiyeh but came across that somehow).
R. Jorgensen said:The man's name is <Mr. X> and he claims he received them through a Crown Auction and they came up along with scrap material:
"these sets came out with many many more pieces as
scrap textiles.
Through the government auction."
Is it normal or even legal for the Government to sell WHOLE uniforms at a Government auction? This seems a little bit odd.
