Sorry for the Off Topic post.

I'm in the market for a new (or slightly used) canvas tent for camping and 4x4 gatherings. I have found a "near new" military GP Small in town for a reasonable price. But for a little more money I can buy similar sized civilain wall tent.

The only MAJOR difference between the two that I can see is weight. The GP small is WAY heavier than an equivilant size civilian wall tent. Another difference is the wall tent that I'm looking at could be pitched by one person, where as the GP Small needs at least two from what I've read.

Anyone have experience with these? Is there a different style tent that might be better?

Thanks in advance!
