ooh very interesting product, just the sorta thing you could pack away in a cache near your main BOL so you can just go grab it and fortify your area although a preliminary search suggests they are hard to obtain or just downright expensive

good find though

Nahhhh! we can find something cheaper and better watch this space...

Yup, it's called a spade

The cynic in me can't help but think the material isn't going to add any/much extra bullet resistance, it's all coming from the earth inside it. So knocking up a quick foxhole and building up and compacting the earth around it should be just as, if not more effective (because you're defended 360 degrees)

yeah but your looking at the uniformity and ease of establishing a block of earth, having one bag ensure a certain height of protection is alot easier than building a huge mound the same height, unless you can manage to make it stick together in a block xD

Isn't this the same stuff used in the gulf and Afghanistan to make FOB's.
Didn't it start out as sand filled "Hippo Bags" stacked like bricks?
