This coy's first product to arrive en masse at the front has got to be as near perfect as possible - and if this takes more time then take the time.

Of course this may not occur with Aust DOD if the record on personal equipment is any guide. The webbing and packs and boots were crap when i served ( a long time ago) nothing seems to have changed.
