After my first skirmish, the hellstorm gloves, knee, AND elbow pads were all falling apart. The PALS on the STRIKE vest were ripping off in some places since the stitching had come loose. And the elastic webbing used for mag retention (which I thought must have been mil-spec) had been streched out or pulled out from under the seam tape and flapping around. I had the girlfriend stitch everything back, sent it back to BHI and demanded a refund. Their service was horrible...I only got my refund after 8.5 months of bitching. They didnt even refund shipping costs...to or from.

Just a reminder though...Grimlocs have a 80?lbs breaking strength. I tried to mount a 100oz camelbac to a chest rig I use for summer games and my camelbac fell off after I jumped out of the tree I was shooting from. I'm not entirely sure if it was due to the force of the jump(as the bladder was full) or if it snagged on a branch or something but it didnt hold up. I would recommend zip ties so you dont lose it mid game.


In all fairness, you modified the product after failure and demanded a refund, if I were BHI I would have given you a hard go of it too.

Seriously though, which rig, this one by chance?
