There is a Surprising Amount of Russian Ratnik Gear on eBay

Russia began evolving the weapons and gear their infantry were using in 2013 as part of an ongoing program known as “Ratnik” that translates as “warrior”. Gone are the days of throwing poorly trained and equipped soldiers into battle. What they are developing rivals any modern first world military force.

In researching about Ratnik for a blog post I just did, I was surprised at how much gear has already found its way onto eBay. It goes to show how efficient the surplus market is I suppose plus that the program has been in effect for nearly six years at this point.

What can you find on eBay? In digging, I have found:

6B38 MPL-50 Shovel
6B38 60L RAID Backpack
6B50 Ballistic Goggles
6B51 Knee and Elbow Pads
6E1 Water Filter and Pouch
6E4-1 Watches
6E4-2 Watches
6E6 Multi tool
6SH117 Tactical Vest
6M2 Active Hearing Headphones
FSS-014 Flashlight
GSSH-01 Active Headphones

There are also a lot of hats, coats, uniforms, gloves and more. So, if you are wondering where you can find the modern Russian Ratnik gear, you definitely need to check out eBay and I created a live link to eBay where you can see posts that you can order:
