    All things NATO

    Love them, hate them, recommendations or just share what you are wearing with a NATO.
    I received these 3 straps from Blushark during the week. Got 3 for the price of 2 which was a bonus. From left to right is the base model, which is a cut above your average NATO, in the middle is the Orca mid range model which I think is brilliant and on the right is the top of the range Alpha Shark. The Alpha shark is shiny but a little stiff which makes tucking the end in a little harder than it should be. The Orca is my favourite is a bargain at about $19. I would thoroughly recommend Blushark but maybe the mid range Orca is as far as you need to go.

    Regards Cam

    Once in awhile you get shown the light in the strangest of places if you look at it right.

    I've been waiting for the canvas straps to get back in stock. Does anyone have any experience with them?
