beachmaster Posted December 30, 2016 Report Posted December 30, 2016 Hey guys, I am spending my new years with James Yeager, but as soon as I get back, its time for Beachin Tactical to hit it hard, and one way that I plan on doing that is by releasing a new product... actually two. Dog collars and leashes. After walking into PetSmart and seeing that Chinese made collars sell for 15-30 bucks, and leashes for the same, I realized that I could use my same Milspec webbing and metal components, as well as H&K rifle clips, to make some bad mama jamma simple collars and leashes for about the same price. Only catch is right now I only have 1" wide webbing, I will have to sell a LOT of dog stuff to invest in anything narrower. So they look best on dogs 35lbs and up due to their width. This is the same Milspec webbing that I have for my slings, so it is mildew and rot resistant, and is rated for over 1k lbs of handing weight strength. And of course I can do these collars and lanyards in any color that I have in webbing. I wont be doing paracord, or at least I don't plan to, because I want to keep the prices competitive, and as soon as I am strapping something into a jig and weaving, it gets expensive... So what do you guys think? Anybody interested in camo accessories for their buddies? I will be doing a special run here at a discount like usual to help me order some more components that I will need, and also to hook you guys up.
shepp Posted December 30, 2016 Report Posted December 30, 2016 Think your onto somthing here Jacob, I know we talked duck call lanyards but every body and their bro makes them. This just maybe your next nitch item!!
beachmaster Posted December 30, 2016 Author Report Posted December 30, 2016 Haha I am pretty excited. I think that it will be much easier for people to spend $30 on an ultra beefy, American made, Milspec collar, than 75 on a rifle sling. Idk why, personally, but that is the way that it is. I have dabbled in this for the last year, and I think that I finally came up with a price bracket and simple design that will make it possible
planeflyer21 Posted December 30, 2016 Report Posted December 30, 2016 Dog guy here. Think fatter, not thinner. Sparrowhund's old collar was less than an inch. The new one is about 1 5/8". Much more comfy for her. And harnesses. Dogs love feeling useful. Especially if they are carrying their own water/snacks/food. Not sure if you just want webbing ideas but dog boots are seriously lacking a quality, long lasting product.
beachmaster Posted December 30, 2016 Author Report Posted December 30, 2016 Idk if I could make dog boots... Thicker would be cool, but the cost of replacing all the webbing colors that I have with different widths would be about a grand, so I will need to really sell a lot of dog accessories before I get to different widths. A harness would be cool, but it would likely be expensive, and Idk if I can hit a premium dog market.
COBrien Posted December 30, 2016 Report Posted December 30, 2016 (edited) I've got 2 Basset Hounds that need new collars. I haven't bought anything yet, as they're both strong enough that the chintzy little plastic clips on most collars just won't do. Edited December 30, 2016 by COBrien
beachmaster Posted December 30, 2016 Author Report Posted December 30, 2016 My collars as of right now unless something changes wont be clip on, but will attach via a simple double bar metal slide. like this

mrmackc Posted December 31, 2016 Report Posted December 31, 2016 Beach, We have been having some problems finding a narrow collar for our wide bodied Chihuahua. The collars get wider after 12 inches in length. I like the collars with the metal belt buckle. I want to thank you for the Tee shirt,it is nice.
planeflyer21 Posted December 31, 2016 Report Posted December 31, 2016 You may want to look into incorporating a tactical flashlight and maybe a knife sheath into a dog leash. 1 hour ago, mrmackc said: I want to thank you for the Tee shirt,it is nice. Yes sir! Very nice T-shirt. Thanks Jacob!

survivalshop Posted December 31, 2016 Report Posted December 31, 2016 I use Harnesses for walking my Dogs , Collars just don't work too well , too easy to slip out or choke them. Harnesses are a little more complicated to make , but you shouldn't have a problem making them & 1" straps are fine for collars or Harnesses .

We always use a harness for our dog large dog or small dog any time they are on a leash. Chihuahuas have really weak throats and necks. Those are a nice couple of dogs.
