Catalyst Surplus

Great Company

Great Company! Highly recommend. Will use again if the opportunity arises.

Legit

Picked up a ballistic helmet and Wilcox mount from them. Products arrived as described. Huge savings over buying new.

Hard to find surplus at good prices

Item received as described and shipped relatively fast. Highly recommended for military surplus items. The prices are very reasonable and I am extremely happy with my purchase.

Good quality

Good quality, low price, fast shipping.

paraclete armis vest

This is my second purchase from catalyst surplus. It takes a while to receive item, but when you receive. Vest is clean not soiled or sweaty. My item was better than described with very minor wear. Buy with confidence from catalyst surplus.

Good!

My extraction point

Good customer service

Optics planet wouldn't ship plates to me as a civilian (although it's legal in my state) but that's alright because I found a better deal on better quality plates at catalyst surplus. The item arrived fast and was in great condition. I'll definitely check here before anywhere else in the future.

10/10

10/10: fast; accurate info; good prices; amazing selection

Awesome deal

Was initially skeptical but these guys are in fact legit. I bought a surplus Msa Millennium new in box and that’s exactly what arrived, better price than anywhere else I could find too.

Legit store, ships quick

Quick shipping. Rated the gear perfectly. Basically brand new aside from the brand new plate I got. I believe they ship out of California (I threw out the box).

I'd say if you want something on there…

I'd say if you want something on there shop go for it, I bought a holosun 507k from them and at first I was sceptical since they don't have much reviews but I took the plunge and I'm happy I did, one small minor thing is that they did take one week to print a shipping label and ship it out. So if you order something don't expect it to ship out quick.

100% legit!

Needed something shipped quicker than…

Needed something shipped quicker than usual so I called and Someone picked up right away and took care of me. Response times on Phone and Email are insanely quick. Sent an Email at night and got a response within 5 minutes. Highly recommend getting your stuff from here. Very good customer service. Couldnt be happier.

I ordered online

I ordered online, when I placed my order, the autofill features on my phone left out half of my address. Catalyst surplus personally reached out through email to obtain the proper address. Upon receiving my order, I realised that I had ordered the wrong size. I was able to swap out the item with ease, through their excellent customer service. Will return 10/10.

Yes it's a real business and yes I got…

Yes it's a real business and yes I got my iotv gen 4 plate carrier.

Great Customer service!

These guys are great

These guys are great! I recently purchased a set of ESAPIs from them and they went above and beyond to make sure that I was satisfied with my purchase. I 100% recommend them.

Fast shipping

I've never herd of these guys before and they really don't have much of an online presence anywhere. I found them on eBay looking for soft ballistic inserts a couple weeks ago and that lead me to their website. I tried to look for any reviews for them but only found the 2 on Trustpilot, which seemed good. I decided to give them a chance and order from them just to see if I would get scammed or not. They are fairly new which would explain why there were very few reviews. I ordered a set of inserts on February 25th and received the items on the 28th, 2025. They were packaged very well and arrived really fast. There are no rips or tears on the covering of the soft inserts. I am very happy with the items and how fast I received them. I am definitely going to order from them again. Thank you guys!

5/5 stars!!

5/5 stars!! Cannot recommend this company more highly. Ordered two sets of armor plates from them and the first set has arrived and are perfect! After 5 days of waiting for shipping information I reached out to them. Waiting 5 days for shipping information is normal for some companies but I was a little more vary because this was my first time buying from this “unknown” company. I received an email within a few hours and they completely put me at ease and I received the info for both orders the next day and the first set about a week later. They arrived in exactly the surplus condition I ordered and were professional protected and packaged to prevent any damage. Excited for my next order to come in! I will absolutely be buying more armor and high end gear from this site!

Excellent Tactical Gear/Surplus Retailer

Catalyst Tactical Surplus went above and beyond! They were extremely helpful, had fast communication, and made the experience quick and easy. My purchase was shipped fast, well packed, and the condition was better than described. I wouldn’t hesitate to buy from them again and highly recommend them!
