Hi,

Just been browsing shocktroop.com, they seem to be selling off loads of webtex stuff real cheap. I wonder if this has anything to do with the VCR Bill - maybe it's just a summer sale, anyway, I just got a New York SWAT Vest for £30! - can't be bad eh?

It's tucked away at the bottom of the site, so you have to look hard!

Here's a link webtex kit

By the way, has anyone got the New York SWAT Vest?

I would say its got nothing to do with the VCR. Webtex main target consumers are cadets.

Perhaps its because of their bad rep, that theyre trying to make them appeal more by beeing cheaper?

I don't get the bad rep really, i've never had a problem with my stuff. It's not suitable for deployment because of its High IR signature, but running round the woods and moors in cadets I took comfort from the signature, if I got in the proverbial it would be alot easier for the SAR heli to find me, when your wearing camo finding you visually raises obvious problems.

In short Webtex is cheap, solid, and unless your planning a strole through downtown baghdad at night a good option

just my two pence

Cheers

Hmm.

The *Viper* New York SWAT vest is made by Webtex... wink.gif

AFAIK, the Viper vest has always cost around £30. Still, someone mind find that info handy smile.gif
