Let’s face it—the tactical and uniform gear industry is notoriously bad at forecasting demand. Whether it’s a plate carrier, a specific pair of uniform pants, or a critical component for your team’s next call out....... the phrase “out of stock” comes up far too often. Manufacturers often struggle to keep up with real-world demand, and the result is that end users—like you—are stuck waiting.
But here’s the thing: backorders don’t have to suck. Not when you’ve got a partner who knows how to handle them right.
We’ve been doing this a long time. We supply police, fire, EMS, and tactical professionals across Indiana and beyond. And we’ve built systems, relationships, and workflows that let us manage backorders with real efficiency and transparency.
We Get It. You Want It. We Get It For You.
Backorders here don’t mean, “We’ll let you know when it comes back.”
They mean, “You’re in line. It’s coming. We’re on it.”
When you place a backorder with us, you’re locking in your spot in the queue. You’ll get exactly what you asked for—no guessing, no settling, no substitute products you didn’t ask for. And because we’re constantly communicating with our manufacturers and suppliers, we can usually give you realistic timelines and updates that make sense.
Why the Industry Struggles (and Why We Don’t)
Too often, tactical gear and uniform manufacturers build product runs around contract schedules or outdated forecasts. They’re reactive—not responsive. That leaves the dealer network (and you, the customer) in the fray.
We built our business around working with real-world end users—municipal and regional SWAT teams, military units, and departments that don’t have time for excuses. That means we’ve learned how to plan smart, stock deep when it matters, and chase down the gear you need when nobody else can.
We’ve Been Through It—and We’re Still Here
We have grown tremendously and built processes and put people in place to scale....why? Because we believe people like you deserve a place to shop for gear that actually makes sense.
And when you do hit that “backorder” button, know this:
You’re not waiting in the dark. You’re in line, and we’ll get it to you.
