....out of his Battle Mug!

Spent the weekend with the top 10% of all 5.11 Tactical Dealers at their annual retreat in Modesto, CA.

Good times, lots of exciting stuff coming from 5.11 and VTAC, and best of all..... OPEN BAR, DUDE!!!!

Here is myself and Kyle Lamb toasting up some Sierra Nevada Pale Ale




(Kyle owns serial number 0005)

Here is Dan Costa (founder and CEO of 5.11 Tactical) with his mug

(I was pretty hammered at this point)

Here is the special mug we did for Dan

As Bimmer says "Why? Because it's America, it's over-the-top extreme, and because I can".





These are not cheap to manufacture. They are high quality, kick-ass mugs.

Are they worth the money? Yes. Are they for everyone? No.



He could possibly have some made up of a molded quality polymer/plastic, for, maybe, $25 - $50?? For the Great Unwashed Masses?? Hint, hint.

But that would take something away from the original.



That said, I need one.

Just have to figure out how to finance it.



It will be mine. Oh yes, it will be mine.





Looks like a good time had by all, BF.

Do you offer an ambidextrous model?

Actually, YES.

We designed it so that left handed "shooters" can mount the carry handle on the opposite side.

There is a guy from 160th SOAR that uses his M68/Aimpoint, but I prefer an EoTech....

Whenever I get the balls to order one, I think mine will wear a Burris FastFire like my '90.
