I haven’t run across a pouch like one of these in awhile. The idea behind the Drive-by Kit is that it can be attached to a headrest for ease of access or quickly detached and removed from the vehicle to treat wounded or load carriage for munitions or other equipment.
The Drive-by Kit can carry two AR style magazines on the exterior of the pouch, while the interior contains multiple bungee retention straps.
Built from 1000D Cordura, works with any vehicle headrest due to Velcro attachment system yet offers PALS compatibility as well. There’s even a simple clip if that’s the fastest way to attach it to your kit while you “get off the X”.
Made in the USA and available in Black, Tan and MultiCam.

A mini combat medic pouch!
Somebody’s already done it, though I like the clip idea.
Who did it first?
Marz Tactical makes a headrest mounted med pouch, but I don’t think it incorporates the mag pouches and other features that this one does.
This looks like a good piece of kit for LE officers to keep on their passenger seat headrest, facing forward, ready to grab alongside the patrol rifle. Much faster than having to grab stuff from the trunk, and even though there should be redundancy built into your system (E.g., med supplies and ammo somewhere on your person, or incorporated elsewhere in your kit), this is a very quick solution for carrying more in a quick and convenient way. Nice work.
Only thing I know of vaguely similar is the Marz Combat Medic Pouch, but it is totally different than this (beyond the 2 mags versus 3) with its tear away functionality/design.
He referring to the Marz patrol IFAK.

There’s also this, which incorporates mags. http://www.marztg.com/products/pouches/medical/combat-medic-pouch?id=1017
Yeah mine is a MOJO medical pouch but is pretty much the same thing.
Everyone’s right. But RE Factor works a ton with Marz. They stock a lot of their product line.
In the thumbnail it looks like a tactical sporran. I dig it. Is there a molle field on the back? I couldn’t ever see the back of the pouch.
The Marz item, in fact all the Marz items, are no longer available until the company gets operations back on its feet. The Marz held three mags, and was a triple shingle with a dedicated IFAK on front.
The Marz kit was the one I was thinking of; the name escaped me. This looks worth a try, if Marz is having issues. I’m really leery of leaving things like spare mages easily visible in my cruiser, there are enough smash and grabs from LE vehicles, even if the can’t get the AR out of the mount. My 10-Speed rig lives rolled up between the seats where it isn’t so obvious.
Still can’t figure out how this attaches together; the Marz harness was pretty obvious.
Looks like the red pull strap just friction fits into the webbing of the harness and the pouch probably judging from the video.
You could always replace their red tabs with molly stix with a red paracord pull to better secure it to the mounting base.
Honestly, as a civilian, hanging magazines on my headrest just screams “there’s an expensive rifle in my car” to any would be thief. I like the idea of a portable magazine bag, but t needs to be low profile.
