    23 years, Infantry, ranger, Alaska, Carson, Bragg, 4 Iraq tours. Thats a great way to use the bivy but if all you have is the waterproof bag, the proper way to use it is turn it rubber side out so your clothing and gear are only touching the nylon coating. No stink and it still works.

    So, as someone who has packed their ruck the same way from 1995 to present I'd like to share my experience. My spare combat clothes (1x MTP combat trousers, 1x MTP field shirt, 1x MTP UBACs shirt) goes in a large dry bag (civi purchase) along with my socks, underwear, t shirts and any other small clothing items I want to keep dry. These last items are waterproofed together in bags. My sleeping system is in the Bivi bag inside another dry bag on top of my previously mentioned clothes in the center part of my ruck. My self inflating sleep mat is in a side pouch with my tarp shelter, bungees, pegs and para cord. The other side pouch has "ready to hand" wet kit, warm kit (Gore Tex & Snugpak sleeka jacket etc) in a waterproof dry bag and my Jet Boil + gas. Other pockets on my ruck carried wash kit, foot powder, 3 days food and command kit (all waterproofed). I could literally drop my 120 pound (when you add comms kit, NVGs, night sight, binos and spare ammo) ruck in a lake and it would float, just! Seal the whole lot in the bivi bag and it floated fine. My dry bag for the sleeping system I would turn inside out when I needed to sleep in my boots and slide my booted feet into my sleeping system thus keeping the crap off my boots out of my sleeping bag and confined to the dry bag.

    I did the same in Iraq in combat. I always just used a trash bag. 55 gallon drum liner or just a cheap bin liner. Just step your disgusting muddy wet boots in that (one big one or two small bags work) and them worm your way into the bivy. Certain times you could rest but it would have been suicidal/unwise to not be able to jump up if needed, roll/grab the sleep system up, bear hug it and jump into the vehicle and secure the hatch and be ready to fight and as soon as the driver has done similar you’re hauling ass (maybe mortar rounds started landing on you or the Indians attack in a human wave).

    I love the MSS with the bivy. I'm 6 feet 1 inch and I don't have the tall version. My feet feel a bit jammed at times, but it's the best gear I've ever used. I tend to use the heavy duty 55gal contractor bags inside my ruck, but I'll use the bivy in a pinch. The rest of the MSS gets compressed like a black hole in space for carrying.

    Excellent video. Subscribing. If you have a bag with a rolled up USGI bivy sack… as I did before watching this video… along with with additional items that could be affected by water like socks and a poncho liner… and they aren’t INSIDE of the bivy… you’re wrong. Trash bags are another option for waterproofing. As good as the gortex seams and material are the zipper isn’t waterproof. I have lived out of a bivy next to a Light Armored Vehicle as an infantryman for almost years (22 months of combat time according to my DD-214). Everyone had an assigned tire or position. Driver was tire number 1 on the non muffler side, gunner #2, VC #3, scout team leader tire #4, saw gunner to his right, etc. we didn’t use tents for the most part just a bivy on an isomat in the dirt and mud. I’ve woken up to feeling like I was on a waterbed because of sleeping in a puddle that formed around me. The bivy is great gear. Even in hot environments at night it is cool and it’s nice to have a “bug free zone” or “dust free zone” combined with a headnet and Boonie hat and you’re all set. Drum liners are relatively cheap (~1-2.00$ for a heavy mil 55 gallon drum liner), reusable for multiple days or even weeks depending on use, can be cut to form an emergency raincoat, waterproofs gear, 55 gallon water storage device if you dig a 55 gallon drum shaped hole with no sharp edges, rain collector, form a dog bowl or water storage hole in the ground, improvised tobbagan material to sit on and slide down snowy mountains or hills, improvised shelter sheet if cut open , stuffed with debris or cardboard or whatever to form an insulating mattress, etc. basically unlimited uses.

    It's WAY more waterproof than breathable. Gets pretty damp inside when sleeping in a bivy. Body gives off moisture, breath gives off moisture. Ventilation is imperative to keep it to manageable levels, but you will still be damp in the morning. Best to use wool or synthetic insulation inside a bivy. Down will suck the moisture up and hold it. If it doesn't dry outside during the day, down will slowly lose loft and the ability to keep you warm. For long term use, a tarp, tent, or hammock are much better.

    Damn that bivy is already looking like a pass. Grunt Proof Labs has some awesome tests going on. I like that you're simulating real world conditions in each test video. I hit a temporary dead end at Canada Post today. Nanny state + weapon = confusion. Basically they wanted to make sure the knife won't get held up at customs on either side of the border. Once I get back to the post office outlet I'll be good to send it. Sorry about these delays. I've never shipped out of country before so it's a learning curve for me as well. Anyhow enough of my chin wagging. Kick ass video man. I'm looking forward to seeing how these bits of gear turn out.

    I've been using my usmc improved bivy in my ruck sack to keep my sleeping bag and additional warm clothing dry for years. On my bivy I have to zip the screen window shut then I push all the air out of the bivy, roll the top down like you do a compression sack, tuck it tight into the bag against itself. My ruck sack is usually packed tight like this and nothing has ever got wet in my pack even in down pours.

    The only thing I keep in my bivy inside my ruck is my 3 season bag, a beanie, some gloves, booties and insulated top and bottoms all at which I may use in the night if not I just sleep on. When I pull my bivy out it gets thrown out unzipped then the 3 season bag gets pulled up inside and unzipped, I usually sleep in what I'm wearing but my insulates are usually laid flat in the bag with my beanie, gloves and booties. I sit in it take my boots off put them in a plastic bag tie the top put them in my ruck sack situate myself in my bivy put my Ruck bag in the bivy for a sit up rest or pillow to keep it out of the weather shut my bivy up and go to sleep. If it's raining hard I'll wait it out under my poncho or if it's a light rain I may string up my poncho to set up under it depending on how tired I am at the time. Just set the poncho up stringing out some para cord tie off the corners pull the bivy out and throw it out unrolling the top under your poncho and set yourself up.

    I imagine that you might need to carry a contractor trash bag to keep your gear dry outside of the bivy at night. Most guys I know that use bivys also use a poncho to have a "roof" to transition out of and into wet clothing, and they store their sleeping bag in their bivy and stuff both together into their pack. Bivys are damp by nature. You don't want to bring unnecessary moisture into them. Imo, they work for emergencies, but aren't suitable for long stretches of wet weather.

    Bivys have no insulation. They only protect from moisture and wind. Without additional insulation, and your body being the only heat source, I would think that it wouldn't keep you comfortable while sleeping in temperatures below 70. You will need a sleep pad to keep your body from losing heat to the ground, too. In the summer, when humidity rises, bivys are hot inside when the temperatures approach 80, so, there is a narrow comfort range without using adjustable insulation.

    Just an update. My bivy is legit with an NSN for the modular sleep system. However it is a bivy that is a predecessor to the current bivy in use with the MSS. I guess I have a rare piece of kit then. Picked up one with a zipper though!
