Battlecloth gear review-PIC HEAVY

Post by Fireman1291 »

Hey guys/gals,

I figured a review of Steves custom gear is order. I just took delivery of a new holster to go with my other Battlecloth gear and felt others might like a review since there isnt much info out there.:cool:


First off, I'd like to give major props to Steve of Battecloth for his great customer service and product backing. Every email I've ever sent him was answered in under an hour. Hes also very straight foward and willing to work with you on a custom order. I had a small issue with a gas deflector product he makes awhile back, and he mailed me a new one priority mail the next day. Very good guy with great products!
____________________________________________________




I own three products from him. Two suppressed pistol holsters and a gas defelctor for suppressed shooting on a AR15. The suppressed pistol holsters are custom to order and are available in lots of color choices and options. I order the holsters fully loaded, so they come with belt loops, shoulder sling, and spare magazine holder. These holsters are great for hiking as they keep your gun readily available and they are comfortable to carry all day.



The black holster is built for a suppressed P22 and the multicam is built for a suppressed G19. I asked Steve to build the spare mag pouch on the G19 holster to accomodate a G18 33rd mag.....He agreed this can be done and made me one happy camper. :D


Take a close look at the stitching and attention to detail. Very nice work. It looks like he fills the dead space of the holster with foam so the holster stays soft but rigid so its not all floppy with and without a gun inserted.

Velcro gas deflector-

Anyone that shoots a suppressed AR15 knows how bad "gasface" can be. This neat little invention stops all gas from hitting the shooters face and it also can be ordered in different colors. He makes two versions, one for a fixed stock(shown) and one for a carbine. I can shoot like this all day, no gasface and no heat mirage in my scope.

*Can cover made by RIFLESONLY.com (Steve might be able to make these, I havent discussed it)

All in all I highly recommend his product, I routinely use the P22 rig when walking my dogs to dispatch any snakes or armadillos I might see along the way. And I never get a second look from anyone as the black holster is low-key. Thats all I can think of right now my friends. Be safe. -Adam

So on the gas deflector, it looks like you have to remove that prior to using the charging handle right?

Guess that wouldn't be a major problem assuming you leave the bcg back all the time.

Good stuff!

Not with the one I have. Just rotate it around, charge the weapon, rotate it back up.

Bring up an old post, I am looking at getting the gas deflector.
And was wondering how well the work?
Looks like a cheap way to block the gases.

I've corresponded with him a few times via PM late last week. He had asked me to e=mail him what I was looking for. I did that Sat morning. I have not heard back from him yet, but did not get that notification you got. It's still the weekend so I figure I'll hear from him by Tuesday or so. I'll stay in touch if/when I hear from him. Let us know if you make contact please.


Edit to add. How about that gas deflector. Any others use that? Looks like it may be worth getting.

Just got done checking me e-mail. I did get one from David (?) this morning from the [email protected] address. Not sure what could be the problem you are having. Could the trouble be from your ISP?
