    Default Tac Gear

    Anyone know of a place around Pittsburgh or close by where I can buy tactical gear (vests, thigh rigs, etc)? I'm in the market but would like to be able to see the product in front of me, instead of buying online first. Thanks.

    You may find a few assorted items at the area Army - Navy / surplus stores, but my experience has been that this is usually low to mid quality stuff at best.

    I'd suggest checking with the local supply houses that outfit the law enforcement and security folks:

    -- Markl Police Supply
    Located on Perry Highway in the Westview / Ross Twp area, worth a visit especially for holsters / duty gear, dont bother with the website if you Google them as it hasnt been updated since they moved from their former location on Perry Ave in Pittsburgh.

    -- Northeastern Uniform
    Recently moved from 31st St to 51st St in the Strip District of Pittsburgh.


    -- Kiski Valley Uniform
    Two stores, Leechburg and Monroeville / Plum, excellent customer service, can tailor or customize most any clothing items (embroidered & applique lettering, patches / accessories / hemming)

    ... hope this helps ...

    Surprisingly, you can find some nice tactical gear at two local Airsoft Stores, they carry vests, plate carriers, molle pouches and other gear that is also suitable for real steel guns. I know both of these stores carrier Condor products: http://www.condoroutdoor.com/

    CoolStuff Airsoft - 300 Curry Hollow Rd. Pgh, PA 15236 412-653-0892
    Ask for Lisa or Mike

    Amped Airsoft - 4146 Library Road, Castle Shannon, PA 15234 (724) 366-6590 - Ask for Kurt

    if you Google them, avoid the references to their former location on a few blocks up from Perry High School on Perry Ave in the North Side; the new location is in the Ross Twp / Westview area (same road, just a few miles up from the former location)

    Last week, they had a large selection of carriers + ballistic plates marked down as they were discontinued or out of warranty. Out of Warranty = officers arent covered via warranty or that they were discontinued due to changing NIJ standards for protection but they are new units and still functional.
