HURRICANE Hybrid Chest Rig from Direct Action

By Matt on November 30, 2016 in Tactical Gear

The HURRICANE Hybrid Chest Rig from Direct Action packs a ton of features and pouches but manages to fit into a surprisingly compact footprint – especially considering it is a split-front design.

The rig can hold 4 AR or AK magazines in its open top, bungee retention pouches. The mag pouches feature a system that adjusts the height of each individual pouch via strap that is accessed from inside the admin slip pockets behind each panel of the rig. There are four general purpose pouches – two silent with side release buckles and two hook/loop secured – on in front of the magazine pouches. The user can attach their own pouches via the MOLLE compatible slots located on both sides of the rig. The HURRICANE Hybrid Chest Rig may also be detached from its harness and docked to a plate carrier.

Direct Action Dragon Egg MKII

By Matt on September 3, 2016 in EDC, Tactical Gear

Direct Action is showing off their new, updated version of the Dragon Egg Backpack – the Dragon Egg MKII.

Direct Action gear’s ‘Dragon Egg®’ backpack has been one of the best sellers in the company’s so-called “Legacy Line”. But never being ones to sit on their laurels, the company recently announced an upgraded version. That upgraded, MKII version is now available for sale in a variety of solid colors and can be purchased today through the company’s US and European / International online store.

The Dragon Egg MKII® is 25+ liter capacity backpack designed to fulfill the needs of an LE or military patrol pack, as well as serving the hunting, hiking or EDC user as well. The pack features two hydration bladder pockets – one in the main compartment and additional in the zipped back part. The rear pocket, thanks to a padded sleeve, can be used for safely carrying a multi-band radio, or a notebook, laptop or tablet PC (up to a 15’’ screen).

The MKII version also features redesigned side pockets that have been enlarged to better accommodate 1L Nalgene bottles. Another change to the side pockets is the removal of the zipper to expand them – they are now equipped with elastic for expansion.

Like all products in the Direct Action portfolio, the Dragon Egg MKII® is made from top-quality components – such as Cordura® fabrics, YKK® zippers, and Duraflex® buckles – and incorporates cutting-edge features like laser-cut PALS compatible panels. The Dragon Egg® also incorporates the patented Combat Vent System® – an innovative ventilation system that provides increased comfort for the user. Made of contoured foam pieces with multiple air channels encased in highly breathable mesh fabric , the Combat Vent System® keeps the pack off the back. This enhances air circulation preventing heat build-up and sweating, while the stiff foam ensures comfort and stability.

The Dragon Egg MKII® is available in Adaptive Green, Black, Coyote Brown, Olive Green, Shadow Grey – and is in stock and available to order now at Direct Action’s US / North America online store and at the Europe / International online store.
