Blackwater gear

Big G · August 23rd, 2007, 14:39

After a quick search on THIS site, I could not find any topics about the Blackwater gear. If there was or is one and I missed it I am sorry and could you please redirect me to it.

Now on to the topic...

How many people are running a Blackwater set-up or have experience with this line of gear. If so what is your set-up and how would you compare it to other makes?

Thank you in advance.

It's all re-branded Uncle Mikes, not worth the premium $ you spend.

WAY overpriced for nothing special.

They have a few issues with shipping as well, from the threads on other boards.

Some of their pouches are not bad, but overpriced. Not too mention, not many, if any shooters at Blackwater use that kit, something to be said there.

I got thier Go-Bag and IO Load Bearing Belt at a good price so I figured I'd give it a shot. Time will tell how well the Go-Bag will fare but so far it's decently built and same for the belt. I wouldn't pay the premium prices retailers were charging when they first came out. Nowadays though it looks like a lot of online retailers are offering discounts on BWG. However, the shipping and availability issues might be due to restructuring snags since they got bought out by Bushnell. Can anybody confirm this?
