Afternoon folks.
Just a quick question as I can't find it on this page. I am curious as to where I would be able to purchase genuine 550 MIL-SPEC paracord. Unfortunelty on the market there is a lot of commercial paracord which can be of a sub-standard quality or is stated as 550 but is infact a lower tensile strength. There is one feature of MIL-SPEC 550 cord to prove that it is MIL-SPEC, and that is 1 coloured thread inside the cord to designate which manufacturer produced the cord. I have had a hard time trying to find genuine 550 MIL-SPEC paracord. I use it for a multitude of purposes like the standard paracord bracelet and also for bush craft purposes so needs to be genuine product.
So my question is does anyone here know where I can purchase the genuine article.
Thanks in advance

Google the bushcraft store. They usually have high quality stuff I believe they do 3 different types: nano cord, 550 paracord made in US and Kevlar cord.
