I was on their website just now and checked out their Busse sheath info and here is the update from today. Congrats to Sumnrfam for winning a multicam footlong.
I copied and pasted the update from their site.
Well I guess all good things have to come to an end. The last of the MULTICAM Footlongs goes to Sumnrfam! We have the patches and they look sweet! Ill post some pics tomorrow once we get to the shop. We have made a big improvement to the attachment point between the liner and the sewn product. We were using Chicago screws which worked well in a laboratory setting. We found however that in the heat of battle (not live fire) we were having our fair share of problems with taking out the liner and replacing it easily in the field (to access paracord, fishing kit, snare wire or anything we wrapped on the liner as it was designed to do). We now are using a 1/4 inch clevis pin with a circle cotter. Much easier to work with cold fingers, sand conditions, or even single handed. A big thanks goes out to Texas Tony Dobbs for suggesting it with our Works Pack. We tested it and found it to be the right fit here as well. So if youve already got one of these beauties well be glad to send you a couple - or they are very common at Grainger/Fastenal/etc (1/4 inch by 1 1/4 inch with a circle cotter). The first batch of Busse Forums specials should be shipping this week so for those of you in the first batch youll know it by receiving an email invoice. The others arent too far behind. Now go Get Lost!!!
