   Is this what the equipment world has been reduced to…zip pullers with logo’s? I guess, this is the difference between the serious side of the industry and the rest…!

   Definitely brings new meaning for attention to detail.

   You are correct, however, when you order 30 000 of those gizmos and the sales guy asks: “Sir, you do realise that we can put your company logo here?” all you can think of is cooooooooooooooooooooooooooool! 8-D

   Funny, Every time I broke pulls and use paracord or simmilar cord.

   Nifty, but the first thing I do when I get gear is cut off the zipper pulls and replace them with sinnets I braid out of cord,

   Its a good look, but with a price. All these zip sliders are zinc based pot metal….not particularly strong, and pretty soft as metals go. Painting zip sliders involves putting an even softer layer over the pot metal. When you have a zipper split apart after some serious use, its because the slider has worn down enough inside so it no longer presses the zipper coil tightly together when you zip it closed.
   A while (OK, 30some years) ago we noticed that when we used nickel plated zip pulls, the life of the zip was extended by a factor of 6. Why? Because the nickel plated surface is hard enough so it just doesn’t wear, unlike paint and pot metal. Later on we adopted black nickel plating for our military packs, as the shiny nickel sliders we use in the civilian world seemed a little tasteless.
   All these sliders we are talking about have the same base metal. They all cost the same. Each company makes a value judgement as to their priorities. And that, children, is how the Mystery Ranch pack got its black zipper sliders. The End

   Thanks for the points you have contributed here on SPECOPS.PL Introduces Branded Zipper Pulls Soldier Systems. Something important I would like to talk about is that pc memory demands generally rise along with other improvements in the technological know-how. For instance, as soon as new generations of cpus are introduced to the market, there is usually a similar increase in the size calls for of both the laptop memory in addition to hard drive room. This is because software program operated simply by these cpus will inevitably rise in power to benefit from the new technological innovation.
