WASHINGTON, Dec. 18 (UPI) -- The U.S. Consumer Product Safety
Commission announced the recall Tuesday of Gorilla-brand, Chinese-made
full body hunting stand safety harnesses.

The CPSC said Gorilla Inc. of Flushing, Mich., initiated the recall of
about 60,000 harnesses because the units might fail during use,
resulting in a hunter falling from a tree stand and suffering serious
or fatal injuries.

The recall involves pullover style full body safety harnesses model
SP40300 that were included as an accessory with 2007 Gorilla ladder
stands. The harnesses bear batch code numbers 020507, 030507 and
040507 printed on the label affixed to the harness.

The recalled product was sold nationwide as an accessory with 2007
ladder stands at sporting goods retailers from April through October
for between $80 and $300.

Consumers with questions can contact Gorilla at 877-685-7817.
