Has GoRuck gotten their quality control issues under control? The last time I looked at them, there seemed to be bunch of people bitching about their QC. I understand it's made in America, but damn, for that price, it better be perfect & bulletproof.
GoRuck's gear is bombproof amazing. Furthermore, if there are any issues, they have a lifetime warranty. And if you rip it and break it or screw it up in any way that isn't their issue, they'll still take it back and fix it for you.
GoRuck makes amazing gear that will last you forever.
Goruck briefly flirted with Chinese production which caused all sorts of QC issues, I purchased an early production GR0 and while there are some small cosmetic issues mainly with straitness of some of the bartacks the functionality is not impacted and Ive been rucking 30lb sandbags for a year now without issue.
Goruck does say if for any reason your not happy with your bag they will make it right I just never took them up on it because functionality was my main concern and that wasn't impacted for me.
