    Great staff and they do a great job for you. I placed an order. Jennifer did a great job communicating w/me and got my stuff to me quickly. The quality was outstanding. And yes, I told e. "Blacky sent me". Will be placing another order soon

    I always wore Army Boots for work so always got my boots from these places. Often I would look around & found some absolute gems including a few cargo short pocket drink bottles, a waist pack that was perfect for hiking & later on longer shifts. The pouches held a poncho, safety vest, emergency gear & water bottle.

    I've watched this several times and am sure I could go crazy in this place. So much great gear at very reasonable prices. I'm even thinking it would make a good destination for a road trip. Thanks, Blackie! A couple of questions:
    1. You use an artist's image of an old-timer that suuuure looks like you. I love the style, subject... everything about those drawings. Would love to have similar hanging on the walls of my gear locker. Would you please connect me with the creator, and advise? 2. I'm a young 70-ish with my share of health challenges, so very much appreciated your "can do-you can too!" attitude. -always watch, and always rely on your wisdom. Again, thanks!

    That's a good place. The local one here has overpriced poor condition stuff, fair condition very overpriced stuff, and over 50% cheap imported copies of milspec stuff. And none of it is the good useful stuff like you showed. They keep the doors open by selling civilian outdoor and work clothing and boots; the surplus stuff never changes and nothing new shows up Will stop by there if I'm ever down that way, thanks for the walk-through!
