Someone suggested I go to the M-Rock website and explore their vast collection of camera bags and accessories; try as I may, all I get is a dead end.
A search reveals several links to their site, but all lead to a dead end.
There are numerous reviews and references to them and I have seen examples on both Amazon and E-Bay.
Have they went under or been absorbed by some other company ?

Thanks for reading and all help is appreciated.

Their site has been down for close to ten years now. I have one of their bags I bought a local camera store. I never heard of the brand before, but it was a nice bag and I bought it. Does not fit a Gripped body but I still have it. Nice bag.

Thanks; I will stop trying to find it.
Maybe they made all the money they wanted and quit.

BuckSkin,

Don't you wish you could find the person that recommended M-Rock to you and tell them not to make any recommendations to anyone unless they know that their information is current?

Suggesting a business that has not existed for 10 years makes someone look very, very bad.

"Your" and "you're" are different words with completely different meanings - please use the correct one.
"They're", "their", and "there" are different words with completely different meanings - please use the correct one.
"Fare" and "fair" are different words with completely different meanings - please use the correct one. The proper expression is "moot point", NOT "mute point".

I can't say much; as, I often do the same thing; about the time I find out about something good, it has burnt down or been bought out.
Way back when I was a kid, you could count on things always being there and nothing ever changed; these days, you can't count on anything.
Good eating places get torn down and replaced with Subway; Union 76 truck stops get took over by Pilot; Microsoft replaces 7 with 10; my wife says I don't do well with change, but most of the changes I see are for the worse.

Right - exactly!

Which is why a conscientious person will always double-check the current status of anything before speaking about it or recommending it to anyone.

Because change is so frequent, we have to work hard these days in our regular everyday conversations to ensure that everything we say is completely accurate. . But it is worth it. . It would suck to be wrong about something from time to time.

From a site called Legit-Reviews
April 15, 2013:

After almost 20 years in business, M-Rock Camera Bags are going out of business. We love M-Rock gear and even featured a review back in 2009 on one of their most popular backpacks. M-Rock has several different styles and price ranges for the complete novice photographer to the well-traveled pro. Since announcing the closure, CEO Michael Rockwell told us that he will refund 40% of the purchase price on merchandise this week only. We are extremely sorry to see M-Rock go but appreciate what the company is doing by giving consumers a huge price break. Go ahead and take a look while inventory is still high!

Found some of their bags on Amazon. Nothing that really blew my skirt up, though...


Just shut up and smile...
