    A couple weeks back I posted a small volume of CAT tourniquets (Combat Application Tourniquet) at a greatly reduced price from retail and I’m checking interest in case anyone else here wanted to secure a few below retail. I’m able to order them in bulk and would gladly pass the savings on to first responders and the likes if I knew I wouldn’t be left holding the bag. I can get them by the hundred ct. case and would have to figure the cost per piece after shipping but safe to say around 15 bucks each which is around half of retail. Anyway, last crate we ordered took a couple weeks to arrive and we split it 3 ways. Not looking to profit from this venture and not looking to unload them one by one either. If there are likeminded folks here who would like to put their hands on a quantity of these for a great savings, post up what you think you might want and I’ll check back.

    Could do with 6.

    (If you need more bought to make it worth ordering, I’ll gladly buy 10.)

    These are a great thing to have on hand, I bring one on my range bag and when I'm in the woods hunting. Just a tip for those ordering: If you haven't been trained on these, buy an extra and mark it for training. Practice applying on both arms, on your legs, and on another person. Don't practice with your emergency TQ!

    Checking with some of our FF/EMTs to see if we can put together a little order!

    Is there a hard deadline?
    Not really any deadline and I’m hoping I can still in fact order a case. Just trying to gauge interest before I stick my neck out. Not a big deal to be on the hook for 30 as I was able to unload my excess in a day. 100 pieces would be a different story but thought it was a worthwhile cause to equip those who may need these and they definitely can make a difference. These are the Gen 7 One handed type with the thicker twisting stick. I do not have the pouches/holders but they can be ordered from other sources.
    Looking like there’s enough interest for me to pony up. I’ll post up when I have them in hand.

    It's called a windlass.

    All generations of NAR Combat Application Tourniquets can be applied with a single hand. Gen 7's are the newest and best generation to purchase though. Gen 7's have less fakes out there as well.

    What distributor are you using?

    I'd also like to know which distributor you are getting these from. There are a LOT of fakes out on the market (take a look at Amazon).

    I don’t want to answer for him but I believe medical people get discounts at distributors on medical supplies like MIL and LE get them on tactical gear.
