    Only ever ordered one thing year before last, A canvas rucksack, took an age to arrive and wasn't as described when it did, complained but it went no where, so swapped it on here

    Ordered from them before with no probs and a fast delivery, but there quality isn't the best especially the stitching.

    But you get what you pay for.

    I've used Military 1st several times and have a couple of Helikon Patriot fleece jackets from them - great value stuff, delivered quickly

    Yes used on many occasions. Always had good service and fast delivery. Good suppliers of Flyye gear. But most of the stuff is german budget gear from MFH or similar. No problem with that, but as said previously you are paying for what you get in that respect. I have them in my favourites. Have returned stuff before with no probs. They have two sites though, one is stand-alone the other is via ebay. If you are concerned, try buying via ebay for the extra security, although many items are actually cheaper on their own site.
    Hope this helps

    Yep +1 for the Military 1st, but i agree with Large Sack buy e-bay it's added security and you have fall back if your not happy, had several bits of a time period and never had any probs.

    Hi there
    I got a pair of Helikon SFU's off them, direct off their online store. They arrived here in France very fast. So no problems.
    Great trousers by the way, I've a couple of pairs and I'm really pleased with them.
    Cheers

    just as an update; all items duly recieved in 2 days, recieved emails of order and depatch confirmation and the parcel arrived within 2 days
    got the coyote bdu kecks, which have a fantastic cut and the us surplus poly cotton shirt which i'm particularly impressed with, bombproof springs to mind.

    regards jamie.
