    I (LightHeart Gear) just made some 8 X 10 Camo sil nylon tarps - don't have them up on the website quite yet, but they will be there very soon.
    I can make them pretty much any size needed.

    Keep in mind, these Sportsman Guide tarps are NOT sil-nylon. They are polyurethane coated tarps. Heavier. Thus one reason they are so cheap. Lest anyone thinks automatically all tarps are the UL kind.

    the military may adopt A-TACS, a new pattern. if that happens, expect the market to flood with surplus digicamo

    The 8.5 x8.5 arrived today and the tarp is a bit shiny and darker than the photo its 15 ounces without the pegs and ropes - (tossing them) might set it up on the back yard to check it out for water and wind proof. I have to see how well this will work with the Hennessy
