I am really puzzled by the Black Label stuff. I saw the video about a week or two back where he put a naked flame on a bit of paper, ran over the corner of it really fast as the box was under the kerb line which would mean you could probably lie there yourself and get run over and walk away with a dirty t-shirt. Then at the end he threw the case. All in all a good display of how to over engineer a product and exaggerate it’s performance. Oh I forgot to add the bucket of water,… Read more »
OMG broadside that was intense. And you know what I agree. Sure its cool having stuff USMC use but guys come on. Only Americans could think and make use of all this stuff. Its just an overkil.

was the camera on a tripod? because you couldn’t see anything he was showing us. The flash ups were ok but it was frustrating not seeing what he was showing.
unless I plan on taking my chaos when I go on an extreme sports holiday this is well OTT!
is it just me that there test video for the black label reminds of GW’s test on the monster case?? although I’ll be honest and say I’m looking forward to these cases because I’m currently resorting to shoe boxes to transport my privateer press gear because I’m unbelievably clumsy with cases and was after a hard shell so ill prob be picking one up.
