Ok new update.... I recieved the shipment from 5.11. What I found inside the box was hilarious... it is a belt holster that requires the clip that broke off my flashlight in order to use it..... no additional items included...

It's a shame. I think they have good quality products but a numskull running the place.  :facepalm:

If you have time, play with them a bit.  ;)

Kinda reminds me of dealing with Optics Planet.

Took me 2 weeks of emailing to get a canteen as a comp instead of a "that sucks here's a 10%j coupon" for screwing up a Christmas present. Optics planet is the worst.

Yupper, Optics Planet is the worst. How you get to them is through their pockets. Dispute their bill with your CC until they scream uncle. Works every time ;)

One more reason to hate 5.11. They wont even sell civilians a plate carrier without plates.

Yeah I hear ya'.

I have been trying since February to get the poly knee pad inserts for my 5.11 pants but to no avail. After I raised such a ruckus that they finally responded to me I was told they would be coming in soon. I asked for a clarification as to when "soon" is. They have yet to receive a response.

Bottom-line, this is a company that does not want to deal with you, a direct retail customer. They really want YOU to deal with the middleman like Gander Mountain, Cabela's, local mom & pop stores, etc.

I am not suggesting any kind of boycott of 5.11 however I will not buy one more thing from them directly or from one of their retailers. Although Blackhawk is a tad bit more expensive, I am going with those guys from now on.
