I recently acquired a old bite suit that fits me great, i haven't used it in forever because it was declared unserviceable and the kennel master told me to toss it, so i tossed it right in the back of my car.
Anyhow the top comes in two pieces. The arms are connected in to the insid piece with the outside being the chest area and the back, i need to replace the inside peace so i will have the new sleeves (unserviceable due to holes in the arms) It has a "M" device attacked to the chest. Does anyone know who makes this suit and where i can buy the replacement piece?

If it's from the military, try either Ray Allen or Hard Dog.

I know Ray Allen well and they have there name plastered over all of theres, yesterday was actually the first day i have ever heard of Hard Dog. I was cleaning out old paperwork and found a pamphlet from them, i looked at there site and they only have one type of bite suite.
The one i have is deffently old, im guessing about 5 years.
Edit: Hopefully i will be able to get some photos of it to post up here.

Michael, I think I know the exact bite suit you are referring to. I have worn one myself, also old, belonging to Orange County FL. The sleeves are also detachable right?
I dont remember the name, Monroe or something comes to mind. I dont think they are made anymore.
I still prefer Demanet, but it was a nice suit, although a pain in the ass to put on alone.

Well all be damned. I just checked the tag and it is from ray allen.
Mike, yes the sleeves are detachable, its like a two piece suit. The sleeves are attached to a small vest on the inside and there is a larger vest that goes over it (they are strapped together of course)

Ha ha, 5 years isn't all that old, geez louise I have underwear older than that.
Glad you found out what type it is. From my experience, the military has been pretty consistent in their equipment purchases. They seem to hold up, a little stiffer than I care for personally, but certainly durable. They (Ray Allen) have started carrying a few more styles in the past few years. A suit that surprised me was one I saw recently at a trial. Don't know the name of it but it was sold by Charlie Kirchner. (he's kind of a legend in my book). He's also the person that was in charge of teaching the military about patrol dogs. (today's military canine history lesson).

Just an update.
I called Rayallen and they said they havn't carried this bite suit for 15 years lol.
No one there knew how to help me, they said only of of them did and he was out of the office today so they directed me to his voice mail. From the sound of it they never made the bite suit they ordered it from a company in france and it was a Monro Bite-Suit.
So, does anyone know else know company's who supply Monro Bite-Suits?
(im about to check leerburg now.)

Regretfully the owner of that company has passed away.
i would call Harddogs and see if they can help you with rebuilding the arms.

Im waiting for a e-mail back from rayallen's "resident expert" also known as the only guy with experice with this bite suit so after that hard dogs would be my next step i guess, i take it they also carried the suit there?
