Dragon Egg MKII Now Available!
Friday, September 2nd, 2016
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.

ZEV Technologies congratulates K.C. Eusebio’s latest World Record
Friday, September 2nd, 2016
Oxnard, CA – September 1, 2016 – ZEV Technologies is proud to announce sponsored competitive shooter K.C. Eusebio won the Carry Optics division at the 2016 World Speed Shooting Championship and Steel Challenge held at the Hogue Action Pistol Range in San Louis Obispo, CA.
On his way to placing first overall in the Optics Carry Division, K.C. set a new world record with an overall time of 83.25.
“The match was challenging as ever with some of the best competition in the world. My ZEV Carry Optics Pistol equipped with a Leupold® Delta Point PRO helped me accomplish my goal of setting a new world record. Equipment is just as important as performance, ZEV’s products give me the confidence to bring home a victory where ever I go.” said Eusebio.
“This marks the second time that K.C. has won a World Championship with a ZEV pistol. His first with ZEV was the 2013 Open World Steel Challenge Speed Championship, making this his 6th overall division Championship win” stated Dave Roberts, Vice President of Marketing and Business Development for ZEV Technologies. “We couldn’t be more proud of K.C. and all his accomplishments. To be a part of two championships and now a World Record is pretty special.”
FirstSpear Friday Focus – Fight Strap
Friday, September 2nd, 2016I really like the FirstSpear Fight Strap. Its utility became immediately evident when I saw a friend storing a fully loaded Fight Strap in his rifle bag. It was a very low profile, yet fully functional way to carry magazines and it fit perfectly when kept right with the rifle. If he had to just grab one bag, he would have everything he needed right there.
Granted, the Fight Strap is more bandoleer than chest rig, with its single shoulder and waist straps, but it will do in a pinch and is a great way to resupply others who don’t necessarily have dedicated load carrying systems. I’ve even gotten to where I keep one in a rifle case as well; just in case.
The Fight Strap is also designed to be used as a dedicated component in several of FirstSpear’s storage and transport bags.
Fight Straps are available in a wide range of magazine options, including: 5.56, 7.62, AK-47, MP5, UMP, P90 as well as a modular model you can configure any way you wish. In fact, the Modular version has been pretty popular with units, departments, and agencies.
Offered in Black, Khaki, Coyote, Ranger Green, and MultiCam.
