20$Bandit Ultralight First Aid Kit Prototype

By on August 20, 2014 in EDC, Preparedness, Survival

20$Bandit is always bouncing around ideas and prototypes. Every once in a while Eric, the man behind 20$Bandit, lets us in on what is on his work bench. This is one of those times. Feast your eyes on this 3 3/4″ x 4 3/4″ x 1/2″, 2.6 ounce first aid kit.

The kit is designed to be an inexpensive, single use kit for the outdoorsman. It is small enough and light enough to be carried in a shirt pocket yet well stocked enough to treat an array of boo-boos. It will also fit in the Mini-Kit MK7.

This kit doesn’t have a name yet so feel free to make a suggestion in the comments below. It should be available soon from 20$Bandit.

RE Factor Tactical Operator Plus

By on August 19, 2014 in EDC, Survival, Tactical Gear

The RE Factor Tactical Operator Band Plus is typically only released every once in a while on a limited basis. It has all the same functionality as the original Operator Band but adds a special hybrid buckle. Like the normal Operator Band buckle, it has a hidden handcuff key which can be used to escape illegal detainment (or other compromising situations). However, this version of the buckle also has an integrated whistle which can be used to wreak absolute havoc at your local aquarium’s trained dolphin performance. I guess it could be used to signal your location in an emergency too.

SoCo Kydex LTx Series Holsters

By on August 15, 2014 in EDC, Guns

The thickest part of most revolvers is the cylinder and how a holster handles that extra width will play a large role in determining how comfortable and concealable the holster is.

SoCo Kydex’s LTx series holsters take some of the bulk out of carrying a revolver concealed. They trim away as much of the holster as possible so that there is no additional thickness around the cylinder and front sight area. The trigger guard and muzzle are still fully enclosed. It looks like a clever design with plenty of potential.

Check out the LTx series holsters at SoCo Kydex’s new website.
