Savior Equipment ID Patches – A Brilliant Affordable Innovation For Knowing What’s In Your Firearm Cases

Have you really stopped and looked at the modern tactical pistol, rifle, and range bags lately? They have evolved dramatically over the years to accomodate the needs of a wide range of shooters with tons of pouches, mounting points and straps all over them. What else do they have? Velcro. Wow. Most of them have a ton of velcro.

One thing I can tell you is that I have quite a selection of shapes, sizes, styles, colors and brands. So much so that I honestly reached the point that I would have to open bags and look inside to see what was there. Sure, I made use of the velcro on the cases and tried sticking on morale patches, caliber patches, and I bought custom patches with a firearms description embroidered on it. The problem was that none of these worked for me — I’d still forget what was inside or I’d pay for the custom patch only to sell the firearm a few months later. I have very few firearms that I keep long term. Most, I buy, tinker with them, get bored and sell them.

I just dealt with it until this past Fall when I ran into Savior Equipment’s “Tactical PVC Writeable ID Patches”. First off, Savior is my favorite vendor of pistol, rifle and range bags. I’ve been using them for years now. For some reason, I was searching on Amazon for something else and these ID patches popped up. [Click here to open the Amazon listing]

The Savior labels are sold in packages of eight. There are two sizes – 3.5″ and 4.75″ and they sell one version of the 3.5″ label that has a white panel vs. the grey-ish color I prefer. Note, the labels have the “hook” velcro surface on the back. They need the soft velcro “loop” surface to mount on.

The brilliance of the simple idea just knocked me over – give people a tag they can write on with a permanent marker and then stick on their case – any case – these labels have a velcro backing and you can put them anywhere you want on any velcro surface.

So, I bought my first package that contains eight of the ID labels and went through the whole thing. I then got a second … and a third and that’s where I’m at right now. No more guessing what’s in a case.

The labels can work on any case, bag or whatever as long as it has the velcro loop surface. Here is one of the labels on a PSA case.

I think Savior’s idea is brilliant because it’s simple, affordable, and immediately struck me in terms of “Wow – why didn’t I think of that?”.

Note, I have to buy all of my parts – nothing here was paid for by sponsors, etc. I do make a small amount if you click on an ad and buy something but that is it. You’re getting my real opinion on stuff.
