Nice gear you have there sir

Great work, I've never been into exotics but after seeing all the nice gear on these forums I've started to be bitten

I love the 1911 also, there is just something about a nice 1911 that I can't help but like.
How do you like the combo flashlight mag pouch? Do you feel it's worth dropping one mag for the flashlight?(compared to a double mag pouch of course)
One last question about shark

When you finish your shark hide does it still retain any of the sandpaper feel or is it supple like regular cow or horse hide? I bought some to do some testing but it seems to feel like sandpaper and I've not actually handled any sharkhide that anyone else has done.
Overall though some fine gear
