Military Mountain and Cold Weather Work Shop – Armor and Load Carriage

FirstSpear dominated the armor and load carrying discussion as Dave Kent discussed the various attributes of their Tubes and 6/12 Technologies. For guys who are having trouble wrapping their heads around 6/12, FirstSpear also has the new 6/9 attachment that is also PALS-compatible but is lighter and actually holds pouches closer to the platform than traditional MOLLE.

He also took the attendees back to the future by introducing them to the concept of purpose built panels for armor carriers. Because you can change out the front and rear panels of their carriers, you can integrate panels that are permanently configured for different loads. This helps reduce weight which is particularly desirable in mountain environments.
