    Allstar vs. Uhlmann Jumbo Roll Bag?

    I've read the reviews for the Uhlmann Jumbo Bag, and how the zippers arent too great, pockets have fallen off, weapons poke through, wheels have fallen off, etc. Just wondering, has anyone had experience with the Allstar Jumbo Bags? Have you had the same problems, different problems, no problems at all, good experiences, things you like, things you dont like, things its lacking?...you get the idea. thanks in advance.

    Last I checked, Allstar and Uhlmann were the same company.
    If this post did not contain any sarcasm, it very well should have.

    I just visted Uhlmanns facility in Germany and can tell you that the quality of their product is pretty highend. I'm certain that if you bought a product from them and then had problems that they would stand by it and replace it. As for Uhlmann and Allstar being the same company, I don't think that is the case. Allstar is a distributer of Uhlmann but they have their own products as well.

    Allstar bought Uhlmann about 12 years ago. The remain largely separate operations, but share the basic design (or source, for things like blades which they buy) for many of their products. For example, their uniforms are nearly identical except for some differences in the cut (Allstar uniforms have a bit more taper in the body than Uhlmann).

    As someone who as repair many a bag they are all basically the same. Tried and find someone to replace a zipper on them is almost impossiable to find here in the states. I have done it but it's no fun. Frances Lame used to make a great bag. I have several of them and no problem with them.
