Never used one of these.... What's it's improvement over like the CAT or SOF?


Designed to be easily usable by an injured individual, one handed. I got 2 off a zpecial I zaw on their Instagram a while back. One for my med bag and another for my go bag.


They say that.... Yet I can easily use a CAT or SOF with one hand. I'll dig up some reviews. May order one just to look it over

I ordered 4. For the price I can't complain. Solid reviews everywhere I've looked.

Use promo code RATS for free shipping.

No but I refuse to buy from galls. Then fuckers have the most over priced shit 99% of the time. Why would I go to the most expensive place to buy the same item that I can get someplace else for cheaper? When they are the exact same thing. Mind you I'm also not receiving any sort of "allotment" to buy my shit like some other places or companies

Here's some info from some people over on Facebook.
(Saw your PM as well. IF I can help will be glad to!)

As with many things, medical equipment it depends on what quality you want. You can have cheap or you can have good. Rarely are the two the same item. What's your preference?
I personally try to build as small of a kit as possible and train the user how to make one item suit several tasks. Unitaskers are something I like to avoid if possible.

https://www.life-assist.com/
I have accounts with several places. Life assist is one. If you know what you are looking for there are some deals to be had on eBay and Amazon. But do your due diligence there.

https://store.doomandbloom.net/ --- http://www.rescue-essentials.com/ --- 2 places that I've used for my personal EMT at-home kits --- not really discount places, but good quality items

I go to the box box stores for bulk disposable items such as gauze, bandages, and gloves. Doomandbloom.net is a good one. So is patriotnurse.com, and emtmedicfirst.com (that last one might have been taken down). For the most part if I'm looking for specifics I just figure out what I need and hit Amazon for price checks or to follow their links to external sites.

Can't vouch directly for any of the above but most come from sources I know or are well respected within the group and not just spouting any old thing. I'll be taking a look at some of them as well as this may be something to add to the group buy. Especially if we can get a discount for buying 10 items of something and share the cost!

I'd definitely be in for a group buy of some med supplies. If you can get lower prices on TQs, Combat gauze, celox, israeli bandage, quick clot, etc. Shit like that.

Depending on prices, I'd be in for a few of each

CAT Alternative for $19 shipped... Has good amazon reviews if that counts for anything

Some more suggestions:

I get my bulk gauze, ace wraps, and miscellaneous items from shopmedvet.com
They have great prices, and usually a free item with every order -- syringes, scissors, bandages.

https://www.firstaidsuppliesonline.com/ I have shopped there
