He will be able to use it where he is currently at. We do contract security for government contracts and I know he can use it here. The issue gear is not that great but we are given a lot of leeway in what we can wear for our duty belt. Most of us are wearing HSDG or Safariland basketweave but I prefer HSDG for the lighter weight. I figure it would be nice to be able to save a few bucks further down the line if he can. If not then I am sure he will buy new gear if he needs to.
