I'm not sure how many of you know about the following websites and the deals that are offered to military (veteran and current), LEOs, fire fighters, and other first responders.

I'd.me is a verification site that is free and has various band names at discounted rates. I have used it for under armor (love their hoodies) mainly.

Experticity is another verification site that I just found out about. It allows you to get 40% off Vortex products and 30% off First Lite products.

The last site I know about is Leoadventures (all government workers qualify). This site requires a $25 annual fee for the verification process. It allows you to get 40% off of Sitka products.

Each site has other products that maybe something that you're interested in and worth a look. There is also govx which seems to be more of a discount site like dvor.

Hopefully this will help to save you guys that qualify some money.

Kuiu and Sitka also offer discounts for Vets, military and first responders.

Sitka requires the Leoadventures verification for the 40% discount. I couldn't figure out any other way to get it. Not sure how the Kuiu discount works.

Nice!! We use leoadventures a lot since my wife is a fed employee. I couldn’t afford Sitka otherwise lol

I couldn't afford it either. Just wanted to let others know about this as I didn't know about it until about last year.

Experticity is pretty awesome. I was a LEO up until last year and got all my First Lite and Vortex gear through them. There were 100+ brands I had access to discounts on. Size and availability is sometimes limited, but the stuff in stock is a great deal. If you’re eligible check it out.

Just wanted to update this that Kryptek gives a 25% discount as well from their website. You have to apply on their website for approval first.

I don't want to be blamed for money being spent. I've read there are others here to blame for that. I just wanted to give back to those on this site.... I've been helped a lot making the switch to a saddle.

I contacted Sitka and got this email response.

“If you are a VETERAN, you can apply at https://www.sitkagear.com/proform
and choose "Government Employee" and then Veteran as your role in the
industry.”

It give 40% discount and requires uploading a copy of your DD214 or retired ID as verification.
 
Interesting. I'm not a veteran though...I get it through the confirmed government employee part with Leoadventures.com. I may have to look into this further.

Thanks for the update!

@Homebrew454 Thanks for the information.
I knew about ID.me but had not heard about any of the rest. This will sure beat searching for ridiculous coupon codes. And I might be able to get some First Lite gear when they actually have the things I want in stock.
 
You're welcome. I was gonna go first lite too but I could get the Sitka cheaper. Both make great products.

If a moderator (and thank you all for what you do on the forum!!) would be so kind as to put this into the coupon/discount page. It was not around when I originally posted it and maybe easier observed there without having to search for it. Thanks!!!!
