Thread: Water Proof Pants/ leggings

Not wanting to hijack but I’d love to hear more about the poncho - I’ve thought about one but decided they’d be no good in the wind. Is that not the case?

Poncho keeps rifle handy and out of the weather, covers back pack and belt gear...really fast to put on and take off...makes a good groundsheet or bivvy...the army used to think they were the bees-knees for their troops, don't know if they still use them or whether soldiers still go out in the rain.
