first off, ordered straight from the DAA site on the 14th, and got them today. ive had stuff take longer to get from ontario to bc and i paid more for shipping, so big win on that.
they are plastic, but they feel strong and high quality, i wouldnt worry about them breaking ever and the color shows up really nice (i went with blue).
tension system is great and the same as a racemaster, same with how they mount to your belt. fits a bit tight IMO on my m&p mags, but can adjust that by bending the leaf spring that is part of the tension system (to tight back to front btw)
now there is one small issue and one GLARING issue ive found so far.
the small one is that i ordered 5 pouches and one was missing 1 out of 2 screws to hold it to my belt. annoying especially because i have to get a replacement all the way from the netherlands (or more likely, go buy a local one)
however the glaring issue is I went to put the first one on my belt and was having issues getting the screw it. I take a look at it, oh the screw is not long enough to even engage the body of the mag. even when i put one screw in first, had the metal bar at a 30 degree angle then put my whole upper body weight on it i couldnt get that second one in. I may have been able to with alot more screwing around and what not but the allen key was digging into my hand and i got fed up.
This wouldnt be such a big problem (easily fixed with longer screws) and i wouldnt be pissed about it except for the fact that i have a month old DAA belt! if i was trying to use a cr speed or some other brand, ok well thats kind of my fault, but your mag pouches dont fit on your own belt? W.T.F. is it that hard to grab one off the shelf and try to put the pouches on? shouldnt that be part of testing? im sending an email about it and ill update with what happens, but in the mean time im still without mag pouches, which is awesome.
