"I first found Varusteleka in late 2016, when I was looking for surplus military gear. Here was a shop that actually had inventory, knew what it was, and spoke about it honestly! I had a great time perusing the website and bought more than a few items.
A few months later, I had a chance to meet the Leka Crew at SHOT Show in the US and we quickly became friends. Varusteleka began hosting Finnish Brutality matches to complement the InRangeTV Desert Brutality matches, and I have made several trips to Finland in the years since. I’ve come to consider the Leka crew truly kindred spirits, and also taken a liking to their lines of new outdoors gear in addition to surplus.”
