Magpul Executive Field Case

Without a doubt, it's the best value out there. The price point should be closer to $30, imho.
Is there any way to reduce the shipping costs? The shipping costs to the east coast is almost the same cost as the case.
Yeah I just wanted a simple case. Some of the guy on here are buying cases that make the iPhone not even look like a phone for $40-60.
Not that I know of. I purchased the Field Case last week and looked for a discount code but never found one.
Just think of it as a $20 case with free shipping and you're STILL getting a steal
True words. I was so pissed all my Magpuls didn't fit my iPhone 4S but that was expected since I've got the very first models without the updated cutout.

you sated you ordered last week. How long did it take and how did it fit?
You can buy it from magpul off ebay. It cuts shipping cost down to $4.

I just ordered one of your new magpul field cases today (along with 2-30 round p mags, foregrip, and gen2 sites for the AR.)
Anyone interested in these cases make sure you check out their newest case called the field case. It looks like it provides more protection than the executive and addresses the silent switch location for the 4s and flash cut out. I'll post pics when it comes in.
Here is a review I found:

How did you search locally? I did a google search and it didn't give me an option to search local stores (unless that's only because none of the local stores near me carry it).
I just got the two executive field cases I ordered from dstactical.com (I live in Canada.) I got one orange and one black case.
I am replacing an incase snap case, which I got through the free case program. The incase was fine, but not perfect. It looks great, because it's very slim and revealing. The tradeoff with the slim design is that it's hard on the hands. I found it was a bit uncomfortable to hold for long periods, because it doesn't pad the somewhat sharp edge of the iphone. I needed to replace the case anyway, though, because it cracked and broke a bit.
The magpul feels great so far. It fits perfectly on my iPhone 4. I'm very pleased with how it looks- it's much sleeker than I expected. Based on the internet photos, I expected it to look a bit utilitarian, but it's just fine, especially from the front. My only minor complaint is that the buttons are a bit stiff, especially the power button. Maybe it will loosen up over time.
I want to add that ordering from dstactical.com was a fantastic experience. No hassles and fast shipping.

I'm going to get one just because it's magpul. Probably won't use it a whole lot other than taking it for qualifying days at work. I just absolutely love magpul products. This case just fits in with everything else they make, very high quality for dirt cheap prices. Great company and American made to boot.
My wife did a search for Magpul cases and a list of stores came up. First place she called had them in stock.
You can also try clicking on places tab when you search google.com. That usually brings up local places as well that carry magpul
I got mine today and I love it. It fits well, feels nice and smooth, and at the same time, it has a nice grippy feel.
Want to pull the trigger on this case today, but just wanted to confirm a couple quick questions first:
1) Does the updated/newer version still cause any flash issues?
2) Have read it has a very slight lip and lay-on-table design which I want. Just want to confirm the phone does not rest on the glass when face down.
Thanks!
Excited that this might hopefully be the case for me.

No flash issues. The lip is raised so the glass does not touch the surface it is set on.
