Right here in the USA!

Friday, we were treated to a ride on the Blackhawk bus. All I can say is wow.

   

That was a great ride, but Blackhawk is also a great company. After several companies closed their manufacturing shops and moved them out of the country, not only did Blackhawk buy the facilities, but rehired all the employees as well.

Their product line is fantastic. We received a great presentation of their company plus an overview of a lot of their product lines. I was impressed with their commitment to their products and how they were utilized in the field and the quick turnaround time from concept to field. Not that I have much of a need for them, but they had pants with tourniquets built into the legs. It doesn't seem that useful, but considering someone in the field who gets shot in the extremities has a high chance of bleeding out, it makes a whole hell of a lot of sense.

They were generous with some nice gear, too. We received the gear we needed to get the job done at Blackwater. I never realized I needed shooting gloves. And their SERPA holsters are fantastic. In fact, as soon as they have on for the Glock 29, I'm getting one.
