Fewturing a paintjob inspired by Afghan war rugs, I’ve been wearing this daypack from Braco Co Worldwide to several trade shows.
At first glance, everyone comments on the Sierra Block 1’s non-military appearance. That is, until I take it off and show them the intricacies of the pattern. There are tanks and planes, AKs and RPGs galore.
The shoulder straps are quite comfortable. In addition to the main compartment theres a dedicated laptop compartment for MacBook Pro 15” amd an ingenuous security pocket on the back panel which fits my iPad like a glove.
Features:
– Internal large mesh organization system
– Multi functional horizontal/vertical skateboard/compression straps
– Paracord knotted zipper pulls
– Air flow foam (open cell) back padding
– Base compression strap system
– Duratuff™ MOLLE mount extension on bottom of bag
– Interchangeable MOLLE strapping system
– Adjusting side pocket
– Easy access center pocket
– Small organization front pocket
– Dual top load pocket
The Sierra Block 1 is made from a combination of Weatherproof 840 denier Nylon with a dark blue 210 denier Oxford Nylon lining.

We first mentioned counterfeit Combat Application Tourniquets back in 2010, and they had already been a problem for awhile. Recently, there has been a rash of these fake products showing up in various supply chains of law enforcement and first responder agencies. For example, this clinical bulletin was issued a few years ago by the New Hampshire Department of Safety.
Our friends at CTOMS conducted three tests in which they self-applied two counterfeit Combat Application Tourniquet (E-CAT or Element CAT) and one real C-A-T to a healthy thigh. Continuous Doppler ultrasound was conducted to assess the distal pulse. Tourniquets were tightened until failure or it was too painful to continue to tighten.
While this video is a few years old, it demonstrates how dangerous counterfeit tourniquets are.
According to North American Rescue, they’ve identified six different counterfeit CATs. While this link offers a great comparison between a genuine CAT and a counterfeit, the simplest thing to check is the windlass. If it isn’t stiff, ask for a real one.
The bottom line is, buy your tourniquets from approved sources. The buck you save, may cost a life.

This is Segment 1 of Episode 1 of Panteao INSIDE STORY: The Warfighters. It covers “Real Instructors vs the Posers”. These is quite a bit of content in these episodes so they are serializing them.
In this segment from INSIDE STORY: The Warfighters, Kyle Harth, Aaron Barruga (Guerrilla Approach) and Robert Keller (Gamut Resolutions) are posed the question, “How do you weed through the real instructors sharing knowledge on the forums, social media and YouTube versus the posers? ”
The segment is sponsored by BLACKHAWK!
