I recently got the $200 reward for someone using my referral link to sign up as a new member. I went to the Store and bought a few items, 4 mugs, a hoodie, and a couple other items. I was sad and mad when I notice those items where made in China and Pakistan. Really? You can’t find those products in the good ol’ USA? Please do better.
We appreciate and understand your concerns and continue exploring what it would take to build even more support for American products. It can be a challenging task in the current global marketplace, but it’s one that we remain invested in as we continue to grow.
Our operations are 100% American-based, including our contact center and internal fulfillment operations in West Bend, WI. All of the merchandise sold on the USCCA Store is designed, printed, packaged and fulfilled in the U.S.
While we have not excluded partners who have deemed it appropriate to source certain materials overseas, we are now and have always been invested in growing our impact on American-based production. This is why we’ve maintained all of our customer support right here in the USA.
It is economic, they under sell us.
My iPhone is not made in USA.
No one’s is!
It’s a sad reality that if I was going to stop buying “stuff” made in China and other countries I’d be walking around in home made diapers and riding a horse.
That being said, I too would appreciate it if the USCCA store could maybe trim down their inventory and upgrade to more USA made and higher level quality gear. I know the organization well and LOVE the company AND their mission, and I know that Tim is an absolute patriot, but the store has always struck me as a “trinkets” outlet. Maybe that will change someday.
Over the years I have gotten many USCCA branded items that I keep around. I bought one thing and will not buy anything else the USCCA sold in its “Store”. Because to be honest, it is all cheaply made garbage.
It burns a lot of “good will” with your customers if they spend cash on an item in your “Store” that then is effectively useless due to its poor quality. J
Just mein Senf dazu.
In German just because @Don102 says it in Spanish. So never, neener
TRUTH! Brother Z,
I won’t buy ‘store’ stuff too 'spensive already, I wouldn’t pay $200 for a USCCA Carhartt Hoodie or $60 for a branded shirt. Not trying to be Offensive here but the USCCA Tees I had for a little while are already shop rags. I loved them! But they put a shine on my Jag now.
I have (10) year old Carhartt/Timberland Tee’s, (5) yr. old Viktos Battle Rattle Jeans. All my clothes take the same beating, some hold up some don’t. 5.11 is starting to go that way—‘Way of the instant Shop rags’, Their Tac Gloves suck! just a sign of the times.$60++ for an over shirt (Concealed Carry) is the new normal.
I recently bought $250 worth of Viktos gear and it is Exemplary! The Flannel is more a Coat than a shirt.
Their Jeans, BDU’s and Tac boots are expensive but will last through this next WAR.
Just stick w/ the basic’s here man, No need to have everything w/ a ‘label’ on it.
Honestly, just like I won’t buy $300 Trump Sneaker’s (WHAT? $300?) That’s outrageous.
I love the Dude but No way Jose on that? They’d sit on my Fireplace Mantel under glass? I don’t think so.

“Ya know in China they just call it Food!”
“HECHO EN CHINA”? I think I ordered that @ Los Quates? W/ Sopapilla’s N Honey? MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!
How do you know he wears underwear?
Seems to be a decent and prudent man…
I’m a “decent and prudent man” and I don’t wea… Oh Just Forget it.
Utah standard?
I don’t answer question, I don’t take tests and I do not allow searches of my car or my aaaa me.
Gray Man, thats me. The only thing that I might wear out and about is a H-D hat.
Yes I have some of these other items that are talked about here but they only see outdoors when at a range.
Public strolling, I’m Gray Man…
Also I agree with some of you others, it’s hard to find MADE IN U.S.A. anymore and I’m sure when it’s found some folks can’t afford the prices for these products.
Amen to that! Some years ago (10?) there was a company in NC offering jeans made 100% in the USA. The cotton was grown here, processed here, woven into denim here, sewn into jeans here. I jumped onto their website ready to buy until I saw the prices. I was willing to pay a bit more for a truly MADE IN USA product, but when I looked the BASE PRICE for one (1) pair of men’s jeans was $275 US dollars!!! That was more than my car payment. I’m willing to pay a premium for a quality MADE IN USA product, but I refuse to be gouged.
AS far as USCCA branded products go, I am total gray man. I don’t wear anything featuring firearm branding or sentiments except while on my own property. In fact, that goes for pretty much all branded clothing. A discreet label or logo emblem is one thing (tolerable if the item is something I really want or need, but still disliked) but being used as a walking billboard AND paying extra for the privilege isn’t happening. I do own a few Carhartt items but they came from the local Carhartt Outlet Store and are seconds or discontinued items.
Of course you have to factor in that I’m often “frugal” in my purchasing. I don’t own a pair of pants that cost more then $25 new. Back in my working days I bought all y work clothes from used uniform shops—6 shirt/pants sets for $30. Why buy pretty new ones when they’ll just be oil/grease/sludge stained after a couple days?
OK, rant over.
Hello @MrPuma2072. There are companies here that do make these things here. Often small and unknown. Take a trip to PublicSquare. It’s like the Amazon of things made only here. You will pay a small bit more, but it will be USA through and through. But, USCCA merch is not available there.
