Boston, Massachusetts – May 17, 2018 – Blauer continues its 80-year tradition of redefining expectations with the first-ever law enforcement duty bag backpack, the Silent Partner™. Made with feedback from real law enforcement professionals, and designed for their everyday needs, the Silent Partner has innovative features that make it the best choice for a wide variety of roles, with a tough 840D Ballistic Nylon exterior built to stand up to real-world law enforcement work.

The groundbreaking design includes interior touches such as headrest straps which turn the flap of the backpack into a seatback organizer (complete with a custom-made hook to hang a police uniform hat or safety vest on, a clip for POV or other keys, paperwork dividers, and zippered mesh pockets for cuffs and two pen slots), along with additional storage. The lower interior part of the bag, which sits flat on the seat, open for easy access, has an insulated food and beverage space, adjustable Velcro dividers, and is big enough to store a loaded duty belt.

On the outside, the innovation continues with a protective vacuum-molded armor plate storage pocket, padded laptop/tablet pocket with easy access, adaptive closure side bungee pockets which allow the storage of larger items such as a water bottle or flashlight, and a slash pass-through on the bottom to accommodate a seatbelt to secure the bag to the passenger seat of a vehicle. Quiet YKK zippers help to ensure durable performance, and a padded, ventilated back cushion and shoulder straps provide comfort when carrying gear.

Blauer Tactical Systems Opens New Facility

Thursday, October 2nd, 2008

Blauer Tactical Systems (BTS) has opened the world’s largest hand-to-hand & scenario training facility in Virginia Beach, VA. BTS invested six months and $250,000 to transform the 28,000 square-foot facility into a world class complex. The center includes an extensive combatives area, classrooms, conference rooms, scenario training rooms, a MMA Training area and the largest Crossfit training facility in the US, featuring 20 full Crossfit workstations. We recently visited the facility and it is in fact, top notch. Not shown in the photo below is a CQB “shoot” house with a few surprises in store for students.

Blauer Tactical Grand Opening

BTS specializes in customized scenario training, as well as research and development of close quarter tactics for the military, law enforcement and professional self-defense instructors. Many companies provide training in how to react once you are in a given situation. BTS takes a more in-depth approach. After speaking with Tony Blauer about his training philosophy it quickly became apparent that his goal is to educate his students in how to recognize situations as they deteriorate and how to react by providing the proper force or technique to attempt to avert further escalation by the adversary.

The facility’s inaugural event (August 15-16, 2008) attracted over 100 military personnel including representation from Naval Amphibious Base Little Creek, Naval Air Station Oceana (Dam Neck), Ft. Meade, Ft. Lee, Ft. Eustis, Ft. Bragg, Ft. Campbell, Ft. Story, Langley Air Force base, along with a 50 hand selected self-defense instructors & citizens who were treated to an outstanding weekend of training that included CrossFit, S.P.E.A.R. System combatives, and MMA training.

BTS welcomed very special guest, Coach Greg Glassman, the founder of CrossFit, as the keynote speaker. CrossFit is the principal strength and conditioning program for many police academies and tactical operations teams, military special operations units, champion martial artists, and hundreds of other elite and professional athletes worldwide. MMA fighter Joe Lauzon from the UFC also treated the group to ground fighting training.

CrossFit and Blauer Tactical have partnered up to combine unprecedented training opportunities for those interested in practical & tactical fitness & extreme close quarter fighting skills. ADS Tactical from Virginia Beach offers both training programs on their GSA schedule.
