RACK

[Philip]

i've found this item on ebay. i'd like to buy it but i don't know if it's really a genuine item. i've never heard of the manufacturer.

Federal Covers was in business from 2004-2007 and apparently did only government contracts.

so it's real. thanks

He didn't say it was real, he said the company had government contracts. Unfortunately, scam artist know thesame information and so a single tag doesn't mean it's real. Are there any other tags? From a quick look, it looks like a item that was made to meet a need, not necessarily the military's need. Keep researching.

when I see a message titled "RACK, real deal?"my mind tends to drift away from militaria and into other more peurile fields. thanks for the laugh!

On something like this I wonder if it'd even be worth faking? The government just sold a bunch of these as surplus in October and it does not seem like a high-demand item.

A quick Google search for the manufacturer turned up the following:

They are/were a government contractor, apparently. The hardware, materials and workmanship look to be consistent with GI

MOLLE items.

 

Edited to add: when I had made my post, I was unable to see any of the other replies-sorry to repeat what you have already been told.
