OC Tactical Cat Trap

When it comes to gear, the simplest designs are often the best designs. The new Cat Trap from OC Tactical is definitely a simple design.

The Cat Trap is a MOLLE compatible C-A-T Tourniquet holder that mounts vertically or horizontally with an optional adapter. It consists of a small panel and shock cord. The side of the panel that faces the tourniquet has a section of non-slip material sewn on to improve grip on the tourniquet. The panel is attached to the PALS webbing via shock cord which allows you to adjust the retention and is easily field replaceable.

If you prefer to mount your tourniquet horizontally you can purchase the optional Cat Trap Horizontal Adapter. The adapter is made from Hypalon material so it is thin and lightweight.

The result of the Cat Trap’s simple design is that it weighs very little, it is field repairable, it can be tightened to be nearly completely flat when it isn’t in use, and it is very affordable. Check out the Cat Trap at OC Tactical.

ESEE C-Steel

Feast your eyes on the latest survival widget from the gurus at ESEE. This is the C-Steel.

The C-Steel is a striker to be used with true flint and it has a bow drill pivot. That is two ways to make fire with just one device (in case you weren’t counting). Jeff Randall of ESEE says it should makes a pretty decent bottle opener too which is handy because you will probably want some liquid refreshment to enjoy with that fire you just built.

Check out ESEEKnives.com and track the C-Steel’s progress on the ESEE Forum.

I don’t even need to say much about this. Look at the picture below… let it wash over you. I’ll wait. Now visit the website of the Kydex bending wizard who made it happen – PHLster.com. The force is strong with this one.

EGL VOCR and D3CR Add Ons

Extreme Gear Labs is working on an entire suite of add-ons that will expand the functionality of the EGL VOCR and Haley Strategic Partners D3CR chest rigs. We have already shown you the wedges that can be affixed to the rear of the panel to accept additional primary magazines, a medical kit, or a handgun.

The newly announced optional add-ons include:

  • The Porker which is an admin panel that will allow the VOCR or D3CR to interface with the SKD PIG PC or Shellback Tactical Banshee
  • The Modular UTILITY / chemlight panel which hangs below the chest rig to allow storage of chemlights in elastic loops and additional items in a large front access pouch
  • The Dropsacks which also hang down below the chest rig and come in various configurations for 40MM ammo or a fast access handgun pouch

EGL tells me that there are still more products in the pipeline! When they are done, the VOCR and D3CR will likely be the most modular chest rigs available. The best way to keep track of EGL is to check out their Facebook Page.
