Thanks to a mutual friend with ITS Tactical, we just found out that South Florida UAV manufacturer, United Drones is using the ITS Tactical logo on one of its products. See below.
What do you think? In our opinion, ITS has worked hard to establish that icon as a source of recognition. Its use by United Drones is uncool. ITS Tactical has asked them to stop, to no avail. Hopefully, this next round of legal pressure will get United Drones to stop.
Thanks BH

High Threat Concealment has developed two new belt systems to supplement their Low Profile System which was recently adopted for use by all DS Agents going to high threat posts overseas. That issue system is in the same FDE as the LPS I have been using quite satisfactorily for shooting courses.
Both of HTC’s new belts can act as a traditional “duty belt”. The difference is in their “profiles”. Obviously, the Low Profile version is well suited for wear with a sport coat and the High Profile version acts more like a rigger’s belt.
The Low Profile Belt System is an over belt/under belt system that makes the LPS rig a “fast attach” gear option. The over belt is a hybrid leather and nylon belt with loop along the inner portion of the belt. This belt is woven through the LPS. Once it is properly set up and spaced the way the user wants, the system can then be thrown on quickly and secured via the hook and loop tape under belt. It can be further secured in place by placing the over belt through the two front traditional pants belt loops. The under belt is made out of stiff nylon and has hook along it’s outer. The unique part of the Low Profile Belt System is that the belt looks like a standard leather dress belt when worn with a blazer, sport coat, or open button down shirt while the rest of the system is concealed under the clothing. HTC has a provisional patent for the belt and are waiting on the final patent paperwork.
HTC related to us that the Low Profile Belt system is also a great alternative to the traditional police style duty belts as it’s much lighter and more comfortable than most all leather versions. Yet, the front portion, the portion you see, gives it that leather appearance.
The second belt system is a High Profile Belt System that is similar to the Low Profile version but instead of the leather front and standard belt buckle, it comes fitted with a life-support capable Cobra buckle. This belt was designed specifically by request for the DS Special Skills Branch and gives the user the option to have a more overt profile. It is perfect for those assigned to QRF or Special Response Teams.
HTC informed us that we should see a full public release of these new belts as well as the LPS in FDE in late December/early January; just in time for SHOT Show. HTC will be with LCI/TAG and have the belts there for everyone to see and try on.

For Americans, the next 24 hours will not only determine how our country will be led for the next four years but also, thousands of ballot questions will be determined and representatives of all types, across all levels of Government, will be decided. There’s a lot more to this than just the Presidency.
It is imperative that you actually vote and let your voice be heard. Too many have sacrificed to establish and maintain the right of the US citizen to participate in the selection of our leaders. It is a civic duty to participate and it’s the patriotic thing to do.
SSD does not endorse any candidates but does offer support of two positions; a strong defense and the Second Amendment.
We don’t care who you vote for, but ask only two things of you. Make sure you vote, and when you do, vote your conscience.
Even though we just told you about Hill People Gear’s upcoming Prairie Belt, we had to share these two photos of a traditional US Army Cavalry issue belt and HPG’s new version.
