Ok, I have some good news regarding e-commerce.
I recently (Sunday Night) ordered restock supplies for all of my FAK's.
I really don't like the On-Line thing having been burned in the past.
I am sure most have read the reason why.
Just now I received my Red Flare Kits first shipment that also included an explanation as to why the rest of my order will be coming in another shipment. That is fast accurate customer service, and I really appreciate it.
I really don't like recommending business, incase they let others down, but for my money these folks have done a great job.
Thanks

Glad to read this as I just ordered 600 ft 550 and some first aid odds and ends.
Thanks for the input

We should do a group buy on 4x4's. Why? Individually wrapped 4" x 4" sterile gauze pads are available for around 6 cents a piece almost anywhere, and the non-sterile pads are availble in bulk for just over a penny each. Jim

Jim I interpreted it as a "joke" - as all of use keep saying "More 4x4s" (2 boxes of 50 in reach as I type)

I interpreted it as a "joke"... My bad then. Internet sarcasm can be pretty subtle at times, especially when smileys aren't present. Jim

Well, both companies came thru well for me. I just got the kits restocked and also figured out how to re-zip them. (they all look 9.8 months pregnant). Now the problem is new FAK bags. I have too much stuff in two and they won't fit well behind the seat! Any Ideas. I currently us US M3 bags like this bag (bag only). Needs to be relatively thin as it is going behind the seat of pick-ups.
