HSGI ® now offers the option for Double TACOs ®

By on April 21, 2022 in Tactical Gear

SWANSBORO, N.C. – April 19, 2022 – High Speed Gear® (HSGI®) has recently expanded its most renowned product the TACO® pouch.

HSGI® now offers a side by side, Double Rifle TACO®. Historically, HSGI® has offered a single Rifle TACO®, the X2R Rifle TACO (the official magazine pouch of the Marine Corps), and the TACO® Shingle which includes three Rifle TACOs® in one. The Double Rifle TACO® allows for the user to carry their rifle magazines side by side giving the user a slicker appearance that maximizes the amount of ammunition to be carried while minimizing the amount of gear protruding from user’s belt, plate carrier, etc.

“We have a long history of providing the versatile gear our customers want and need; and we have continued to accomplish that that in 2022.  Additional TACO variations combined with faster turnaround times continue to make the difference for our customer base.” stated Bill Babboni, HSGI® Chief Operating Officer. “Everyone has come to rely on the adaptability of our products so that the user has the option to carry a variety of equipment without having to re-kit their belts or chest rigs.”

The Double TACO®, like the original TACO® line includes both MOLLE and adaptable belt mount (ABM) configurations. These pouches are great solutions for any kind of plate carrier, chest rig or belt mounted system that are used. HSGI® offers the Double Rifle TACO® in a variety of color options and is available now on the HSGI® website.

The Double Rifle TACO® can be purchased through the HSGI Authorized Dealer network or on the HSGI website: Double Rifle TACO® (highspeedgear.com)

Coming Soon: The Duty Double TACO® with HSGI® Universal Clips allowing easy attachment to both MOLLE and belts up to 2”

 “We were so pleased to work with Heckler and Koch® on this equipment contract for the Army,” said Bill Babboni, HSGI® vice president of sales and operations. “While we have supported individual military units and personnel for years, to have two sizeable military contracts is truly an honor.  Our recent contract with the Marines for 150,000 X2R TACO® and this contract of 30,000 TACOs® heading to the Army means High Speed Gear is doing the right things at the right time for our service members.

HSG Plate Carriers

By on August 3, 2015 in Tactical Gear

It is good to see High Speed Gear back in the plate carrier game. There was a time when the Weesatch and its derivatives were the hot carriers on the market but that was years ago. Now, with the introduction of their new MPC and SPC carriers, they are coming back to relevance in an innovative way.

HSG’s approach to their SPC and MPC is modularity on a level that I am not sure we have seen before. Both plate carriers start with the same basic, slick, plate pocket chassis. The SPC is offered as a more slick, low-profile option and the MPC as a more modular, load-bearing option. The MPC’s MOLLE compatible cummerbund is actually HSG’s excellent Sure Grip repurposed with an adapter to work as a cummerbund! The front panel can be run slick or with the new HSG Chest Platform mounted on the front as a cummerbund flap. Both the Sure Grip Belt and Chest Platform can also be utilized as stand-alone gear when you don’t need a plate carrier.

We have certainly seen effective ways to integrate plate carriers and chest rigs before, but HSG’s new approach seems to take modularity to a whole new level. Check out the SPC and MPC at HSG.
