Crimson Posted October 29, 2008 Report Share Posted October 29, 2008 Quite old news i have ordered it and found that they were too large, returns policy is messed, the guy who deals to international buyers is not very good either and does not answer any detailed questions. was not a happy experience for me, but the combats were great ile keep you updated when i recieve my new sizes (its been a few weeks now) Link to post Share on other sites

GuzziHero Posted October 29, 2008 Report Share Posted October 29, 2008 Lets hope the P.M.C. edition has a tourniquet around the collar. Link to post Share on other sites
my_plague_666 Posted October 29, 2008 Report Share Posted October 29, 2008 looks like a great idea in real war situations, but i think its a bit stupid buying one for airsoft. Link to post Share on other sites

TheKurodaVagrant Posted October 29, 2008 Report Share Posted October 29, 2008 My inner /k/ommando burst out when I heard the word "OPERATOR." Good idea, though. Makes me wonder why this hasn't been thought about before... but then again, this is the age of modular pouches where you never know where the hell the tourniquet might be stored on your patient's gear. I guess it was only a matter of time and complaints from medics to arise. Link to post Share on other sites
Burke Posted October 29, 2008 Report Share Posted October 29, 2008 I dont really care for the review done by the first link. Persons attitude is bad considering this could in fact save lives. Link to post Share on other sites
Thorbard Posted October 30, 2008 Report Share Posted October 30, 2008 I'm with the crowd of "great in the real world, but..." Tourniquets can actually be dangerous and generally not recommended first aid. In a warzone where people are going to be concentrating (rightly so) on shooting/fighting/whatever then yes, its a great idea. But when playing a game, I would hope a torn artery would stop the game and proper medical attention be given. Link to post Share on other sites
Skarclaw Posted October 30, 2008 Report Share Posted October 30, 2008 I dont really care for the review done by the first link. Persons attitude is bad considering this could in fact save lives. Dunno what you are talking about, did you even read the third paragraph? Didn't really see a negative attitude Besides, its an IT website, not a gear website. In fact, it wasn't even a review :| Link to post Share on other sites
