High Speed Gear SB15 IFAK Pouch

High Speed Gear gave the world a sneak peek of a new IFAK pouch that they are working on via their Instagram. The pouch is designed to hold the essentials for treating a gun shot wound in an envelope compact enough to ride in between the flaps of an SB15 Stabilizing Brace.

The initial reaction has included no shortage of internet law “experts” and BATFE tea leaf readers that have already declared it illegal and a bad idea. However, they don’t know that High Speed Gear is well aware of the potential implications of this pouch and are working through the proper channels to ensure everything is on the up and up. If everything goes well, it could be approved and ready for release by SHOT show.

I can only speculate but, if I was going to create such a pouch, I would design it to ride in the brace only during transport. If an end user were to leave the pouch in place while shooting the pistol, that would be using the pouch in a manner other than it was intended.

Kudos to High Speed Gear for at least trying. Hat tip to F3 Tactical for the tip.

Limitless Gear LMR Animation

As a consumer, I appreciate when a manufacturer takes time to show me how their product works. Videos like this one from Limitless Gear that shows how the Limitless Magazine Retention system (LMR) on their OPFOR Magazine Carriers works can be invaluable when you are deciding if a product will meet your needs, especially when you can’t lay hands on a product in person before you buy.

Impact Weapons Components has Magpul’s new Padded MS1 Sling in stock and they are offering it in a combo with two heavy duty QD sling swivels and a 2 to 1 Point Triglide. Magpul designed the MS1 Padded sling to work well in either one or two point configuration and this combo gives you everything you need to easily transition between either configuration.

The “triggerjerk” code will not work on this combo but it will still save you 5% on most IWC items. Check out the MAGPUL MS1 Padded 2 To 1 Convertible QD Sling Combo at IWC.

OV Innovations FILBE Nonslip Hip Belt Strap

Oneiros Valley has changed their name to OV Innovations… probably as a result of people like me constantly misspelling “Oneiros”. Rest assured, the name is the only thing that has changed. They still carry all the great products that you and I have come to love, like the LLP.

They just released the FILBE Nonslip Hip Belt Strap – their first product under the new name. If you own a FILBE, this will save you some headaches.

From OV Innovations:

The USMC Pack (FILBE) Hip Belt webbing strap has a tendency to loosen during use. The new Nonslip Hip Belt Strap from OV Innovations virtually eliminates any chance of slippage, even when the belt is wet. Redundant stitching and the latest ITW Nexus hardware ensure lasting durability. Made in the US of US materials.
