## Questions & Answers

**Q: Are these tccc rated?**
A: To my understanding they do not have the tccc rating yet.  The last I checked there are a few companies that produce these style of tourniquet that are having copyright or other legal issues with C.A.T.s manufacturer and could not apply for the rating.  I have used these and can't tell a difference other than the grip hole in the loop and the metal windlass over the plastic C.A.T has .  Hope that answers the question.

**Q: Whats the difference between gen 3 and gen 4?**
A: The Gen 3 has a composite only windlass locking mechanism while the Gen 4 has a metal insert under the composite in the locking mechanism for more strength.  I believe that is the only/biggest difference.

    Bet your life on it
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on October 17, 2020*

I recently completed a Tactical Combat Casualty Care / Stop the Bleed class and that motivated me to get more high quality Tourniquets.  The Recon Medical tourniquet is super high quality in every respect and the best value I could find. I'll bet my life on that since I'm adding one to each IFAK, kit, carrier and sling.

    Best Bundle
  

*by K***K on Reviewed in the United States on December 28, 2019*

Probably one of the best tourniquets I've used so far.The material has held up superbly well.The metal handle is perfect as I have a habit of snapping the plastic ones.The toung hole has been useless for me but maybe someone else out there might like it. Hasn't affected the quality of the tourniquet and doesn't get in the way.My only disappointment is that these are not approved to be used in the military.The company also offer cases for your tourniquets if that's something you want.

    good quality and I will buy again. IMO worth the extra couple bucks
  

*by C***V on Reviewed in the United States on November 14, 2020*

Never had to use one so far but I've done a lot of research for the right one and I've bought a couple different types! I like these a lot. Materials seem to be good quality. I feel the base plate could be thicker for rigidity but I believe it is still sturdy and will absolutely work when needed most from what I can tell! A bit on the pricy side compared to the cheaper brands with plastic windlass but I figured you get what you pay for and your life is worth more than a couple extra bucks
