I have 1 1990 Greenbrier and a 2003 PJ Industries N-3B, Both are original US Gov Issue, I prefer the Greenbrier because it has inset Cuffs the PJ Industries Cuffs are sewn in differantly, Both are the -60*f Originals Also my Greenbrier is a lighter Sage Green and the PJ Industries one is closer to Olive Green, I bought them both brand new, The Original N-3B's are everything the Snow Mantra wished it could beI know because I own one of them too.
@@MakkerHeineken Yeah, he either got an absolute bargain which is entirely possible or he was scammed. I'm not sure if he said he got it from Ireland. However 30 USD for a 1980s N-3B sounds incredibly cheap. I don't live far from Ireland and second hands are about $80, depends on the condition. New ones I've seen for around $180 minimum.
Awesome video, it was very informative and entertaining to watch!
Good editing!
Thank you for the kind words, keeps me going!
Thank god finally someone came out with a video on this parka I found mine at a local surplus store they also have them on eBay

Yeah mine's an 80s variant which tends to run cheap... Pre 80s are def more sought after.
