UW Gear Considering Adding 500D Cordura Option

I am a fan of 500 Denier Cordura. In my experience, it is more than durable enough for my needs and it saves weight. UW Gear has been considering adding a 500D option to their line up for a long time now and I am glad to see them finally giving everyone a peek behind the curtain.

If they have enough interest to add the 500D option, the new rigs that result from the addition should be considerably lighter in weight. In addition to the weight savings that come from the lighter material, UW Gear has slimmed the harness where it meets the body of the rig for additional lightening.

If you are would like to see UW Gear add 500 Denier Cordura Nylon to their line as an option, let them know!

Fight and Flight Tactical LLAMA Aluminum Frame Stays

dsc_0218

Fight and Flight Tactical’s LLAMA pack works well without frame stays thanks to it’s semi-rigid backing but it does have the ability to accept them. It took a while but the stays are finally available. The stays should provide an extra measure of weight-transfer to the hip belt, making the LLAMA more comfortable with heavy or off-balance loads – like when there is a rifle secured in the tailgate.

They are made from aluminum and can be bent to fit your back. They are 15″ long, 1.25″ wide, and .125″ thick and sold in pairs. Pick up some frame stays for your LLAMA at Fight and Flight Tactical.

Chinook Medical Officer Response Kit

The new Officer Response Kit is Chinook Medical’s most compact hemorrhage control kit to date. It is not much larger than the tourniquet it is designed to hold.

The heart of the kit is the Officer Response Pouch (also available separately) which can be attached to any MOLLE compatible surface and is compact enough to work well on a belt. It is designed to hold the most basic hemorrhage control items (included): a 4″ Israeli Bandage and a CAT Tourniquet. There is also room for 4 nitrile gloves (included).

The Officer Response Kit is available in Black or Coyote Brown. Check out the full kit and the separately available pouch at Chinook Medical.

LAG Tactical Battle Buddy

The LAG Tactical Battle Buddy is now available. The Battle Buddy is a magazine carrier designed to hold (and conceal if necessary) a handgun and rifle magazine. Like most LAG Tactical products, it is available with a staggering number of options up to and including how aggressive you want the rig to retain the magazines. It also features LAG Tactical’s trademark flared opening.

There are a number of handgun magazine options available. Several common AR-15 magazines, the SCAR 17, and 7.62 PMAGs are available for the rifle magazine pouch.
