Compared to the CAT tourniquet, this one is easier to use even when dirty, thanks to the lack of Velcro. Still, it's worth learning to use both types.

Product as described. The tourniquet is very durable, the metal windlass and its attachment are solid, and the material does not fray. Shipping was fast, I recommend it.
-
Specialists consider this tourniquet the best available right now. I've been using two of them for training for seven years and I confirm this opinion. The one bought from Militaria is my third, replacing one worn out during practice. I recommend both the product and the store.
-
Well-made tourniquet, I recommend it to anyone going to the shooting range or who uses firearms. For me, it's a must-have during hunts—safety is most important. Better to have it and not use it than need it and not have it. The operation is very simple. It's worth taking a course in using the tourniquet; I see it as an investment in long-term knowledge, comparable to learning to ride a bike.
-
Fortunately, I haven't had to use it so far; it's part of my first aid kit. In my opinion, it's better than the CAT—you don't have to thread the strap, and instead of Velcro, it has a buckle that makes application to limbs easier. The steel windlass seems more durable.
-
The tourniquet is very well made, clearly better than various cheap knockoffs from Aliexpress. It's not worth saving money on such products—better to buy a proven model. Highly recommend!
-
Looks sturdier than the CAT; when folded, it takes up less space, though it costs more. It fits easily into various pouches.
-
Definitely a better tourniquet than CAT. There are no Velcro straps that can get dirty and lose grip; there is a buckle that allows easy application, for example, to the leg. When folded, it's more compact, and the strap is softer compared to the stiff one in the CAT.
-
It frays less when worn than the CAT7, and the quality is identical.
-
So far I haven't had to use it, and I hope it stays that way. In my opinion, the operating mechanism is more convenient than the CAT—no need to thread the strap, just fasten the buckle. The steel windlass also gives a greater sense of security.
-
Solid tourniquet, easy to use, definitely worth recommending!
-
Durable tourniquet, I have no complaints.
-
Good tourniquet, carefully manufactured.
-
Good quality, it should be in every first aid kit.
-
It's good to have it on hand at the shooting range. Hopefully, there will never be a need to use it.
