Hey guys! Through the powers of social networking, I stumbled upon a newish buisness last month called TacPack.com. So, it appears to be a guy who is getting random "tactical" gear for people to try out and sending them out in care - packages once a month. Ok - I get the idea. Love it! I emailed the guy some questions, and he got right back to me - great guy. I saw how he interacts with people on FB and even had a short convo with him on there myself. Seems like a decent dude. From what i could put together based on his own blogs, it seems like hes trying to put together a nice collection of NFA items, and this is his way to fund it. Ok, I get it. Everyone buys thier toys someway or another, and he found a way. Cool. Then I look into boxes in the past. It looks like he had just released his second box. Couldn't find much about the first box, but the second box had me pumped! I'm seeing a HexMag, beanie, knife, patch, some targets, and a few stickers. Ok, I'm aboard and signed up.
A few weeks later, I get my box in the mail. Hell yea! I'm stoked! Let's see what I get-
On the top was a paper introducing you to the companies in the box. Pretty cool idea. I tried to make it so you guys could zoom in and read the paper. If you need closer pics, let me know. So here's what I'm looking at:
Silencer Shop - sweet! Forum sponser, sweet t-shirt, cool patch and sticker, a coozy, and a brochure.
Bastion LLC - ok, never heard of these guys. It came with one of thier knucks. I'm a bit confused, so I go to the company website. Oddly enough, I can't find knucks on thier website. It's just a bunch of engraved AR and glock parts. Not sure what's going on there.
Bee Tactical - never heard of these guys. It's based out of TX and they make Kydex wallets. It'll be used as a trade item in the future.
Overall, I'm highly disappointed with this month's box. The subscription is $50/month, and I just don't feel like I got $50 worth of stuff. On the other hand, it IS a relatively new buisness, last month they did great, and they've hinted to some interesting new products in the future (lube, a cool AR hammer bottle opener, gun parts). So I'm gonna give it one more try. If it's the same next month, I'll probably back out.
