We checked the site and they are offering proprietary products from US Elite and offering Arc’teryx LEAF products while they are not a dealer. Something isn’t right, steer clear…

US Elite Gear Statement:

A quick PSA to all our customers and tactical friends: if there’s any website that you’re purchasing from and the only method of payment is PayPal, it’s likely too good to be true.
