In working with OTTE, they were more than willing to see it come back shredded in a bag, their only comment was to let them know how it got damaged so they could work on protection for that use.

Thats impressive to me. Nothing was done to the Shells that I didn't consider realistic, but I consider crawling across the ground on my back over rocks and thorns realistic.....
Bottom line here is that I wasn't sure if you had any TAD stuff in the locker or within arm's reach; if not, then it makes little sense to go overboard with this, as guys like MM provide sufficient levels of detail on other products to draw most of the necessary conclusions elsewhere.

Personally, I'm still more familiar with TAD than I am with OTTE, which is probably what is underwriting my question; that said, given what we've seen from OTTE so far, I'm extremely interested in their kit.
