Elite Survival SystemsRecon 4 Rated To 14 Degrees Fahrenheit Sleeping Bag - Olive Drab, One Size

I bought this to strap on the back of my plate carrier vest on the rear. well its too big for that so I mite buy a smaller one and use this one for drill weekends when we go to the field like I did last weekend. there is no water proof system on this thing so with that being said the sleeping system the Marine corps gives us does but it probably 3-3.5 times the size on this thing. I have a thermal pad i Lay down put this thing right over top in a one man sleeping tent and damn was I warm and slept like a rock. everyone was crying in the morning because they were cold all night and some of the Marines slept in a two man tent that closes all the way around extra body heat and wind proof. take it for whats its worth.

Not good for temperatures under 50 degrees unless you dress heavy, footcup gets smelly and is restrictive, velcro catches on fabric.

Was very excited to get this sleeping bag has been in my wish list for a long time now, got it today and am not disappointed with the bag expect it is not the one i ordered. It is the recon 4 bivy sac but inside is a recon 3, WTF, now i have to return it. UPDATE--- returned the other bag, just received my new one, and it is the right one this time bumping up to 4 stars probably 5 after i use it a couple of times. return was very fast and easy (prime.)

This is an incredible little sleeping bag. It packs up very tight and will keep you very warm down to some pretty considerable temperatures. Keep in mind it will keep you alive down to the rated temperature but you probably won't be happy. If you are nearing -10C you will need more than this bag. In fact, if you're nearing those temperatures you need some sort of active heating system anyway. I would recommend a reflector system and chimney style fire with low front blocks.I use this with a hammock setup. A tip, cut a hole in the bottom and top then sew it so it doesn't unravel, then string the hammock through the bag.

This bag performed as advertised. Used in 30 degree temperatures and was warm all night with light clothing. I was actually able to close the hood, to fully enclose myself and did not even use a tent. The only minor warning I have, is the length. I am 6 ft tall and there was not much room left at the bottom, which is actually a good thing for me, but for a taller person they may find it uncomfortable. I would however recommend this sleeping bag to anyone.
