just wondering if anyone has bought wall tents from this place.

I purchased a 2nd wall tent from them and it turned out great.  I had the tent in my shop in 2 days!

Would highly recommend them.

Thank you!
what tent did ya get?

I have a dozen tents from them and I am very happy with them. The tents I chose were very affordable, are very lightweight, zipper in both ends in case one zipper wears out. Have had them for 3 to 4 years, they are still very water repellent, I expect to get many more years of heavy use. The only complaint I have, the sod cloth is a type of plastic material that wads up and holds the wrinkles, has to be stretched when you first set up the tent, you might ask if they have a better sod cloth now.

Almost forgot to mention, I have about 6 other kinds of tents including 3 Montana, I like the lightweight ones from Wall Tent Shop better than all but one other tent style that I have. I do have 2 realite tents (not sure what brand) that I bought used 13 years ago that I use for packing in, they are really good durable lightweight tents for horse packing, but I have had to tarp the 2 realites ever since I had them or they leak a little. They are not from Wall Tent Shop.

Ask and you shall receive!  Good write up bearpaw.  Does anybody happen to know who owns the shop?  Just curious because I know most of the outfitter-leather repair-guide types in the area but not them (at least not that I know of).

they seem to have some reasonable prices with some good options

Sorry it took so long to get back to you.  I have been out of town all weekend.

I bought the "Hunter" I think.  Its a 12X14 and is built well.

Where ever you decide to buy, in my opinion you should get the flame retardent treatment due to sparks from campfires even if you don't use a wood stove in the tent, and get the water repellent treatment, they are both worth the extra money.
