Oh so unimpressed with the stitching

[Guest JohnGalway]

Ordered these of Ebay a while ago, went over to a mates last night to fill them up with silver sand (that pavers use). Took a while as we were funneling it into the main bag. Jiggled it around a little to distribute some sand in the bag and the effing seam rips Talk about rubbish stitching. I don't really expect the world with things I buy but I do expect a Ronseal job - does what it says on the tin. Right, whatever, mate's mother knows a woman who's excellent at stitching so he's going to ask here to do a better job and I'll do him a good turn some other time, fair swap

 

So we've still got the small rear bag to fill. Doesn't take long as it's tiny, and I'm extra careful handling it (honestly shouldn't be as bloody delicate). So all goes well and we've it filled and the sand settled inside. Close it up and turn it right way up and... Effing sand spilling out through another seam Ahhhh......

Buy something else folks

Must say I got a set (front and rear) of Caldwel bags from Sportsman gun center £17 for the two, and no problems . But I have mine filled with rice.

john i went for the poor man's version of a bank cash bag a good strong one, and filled it with plastic beads, i just squeeze it slightly to get the elevation i need, all it cost was one cable tie to close it......

 

Never let me down yet...........
