“We are very excited to become part of the expanding Point Blank platform. Our company has built its reputation by providing high quality, durable products through world class customer service, and I am very pleased to see it become part of an organization with the same commitment to excellence. G&G’s products are a natural fit for Point Blank, and I look forward to working with them to broaden our reach, expand our product line, and most importantly, serve our customers well,” said Scott Nelson, President of G&G.

G&G will enhance our position as the global leader in public safety equipment with their holsters and duty gear while we maintain our absolute commitment to our customers.”

Considering PBE just announced a merger with First Tactical, this is some very big news. Looks like someone is working to rival Safariland as the one-stop shop.
