    Thanks for posting this. I was about to make the same post, but I see ya beat me to it. I checked my BD carabiners, and they're alright with no irregularities. Good looking out!

    Thanks gunner !!

    I only have one BD but it's an important one (primary locking the harness to overhead line, backup is a MadRock), part of the portable zip line kit I setup for the nieces and nephews when we go camping.
    Have sherpas, will travel...

    Thank you for this notice. I have more than several BD biners. Just looked and all are ok. This recall does not help the company's (former) reputation. When I looked for definitely USA-made only biners earlier this year, I was surprised how hard they were to find. One post on a forum said that BD was returning to American manufacture some time in 2016. Rumor, for what it's worth.
