Military grade means made by the lowest bidder.
So? Commercial is also made to be the cheapest.
It is kind of an inside joke (not the best description, but close enough). People in the military know how shitty some of their gear is. Military grade used in marketing only makes people who don’t know think it is tough shit. Military folk know it means nothing.
Except boots.
If infantry bought the straight trash on the consumer market today, they would fall apart in a month...
Commercial still has to be somewhat good (in general) to stay in business. Military suppliers just need to supply Trump with pre-teens so they can cut even more corners.
No they don't. Look at Aliexpress. They sell cheap crap that is so low cost, nobody bothers to return it if it breaks immediately.
And it’s still higher quality than the stuff I got to use in the Army
"military grade" sounds way cooler to idiots than "commercial grade"
I only get military grade dish soap
Private buyers can choose from any number of manufacturers, from shit to actually good stuff. Military is always the lowest bidder.
