LENGGRIES, GERMANY (18 August 2022)—Lindnerhof-Taktik, GmbH, today began making available for purchase a trio of items for more completely configuring the war belts worn by tactical operators.
The three new items are the MX463 Dump Pouch Small, MX301 Medic Pouch Horizontal, and the LT686 Inner Belt.
The lightweight, space-saving MX463 Dump Pouch Small is designed to fit over the wearer’s magazine pouch so that magazine changes can be performed more agilely and—as a result— faster.
The MX301 Medic Pouch Horizontal is a partitioned, highly customisable, fast-opening bag for carrying a well-organised set of first-aid supplies.
The new LT686 Inner Belt is a super-lightweight and stiffened inner belt that gives users an array of options for their mission load-out.
“Each of these new products is innovative in its own way, but all three have stayed true to the Lindnerhof creed—and that is ‘Keep It Light, Keep It Fast,’” said Lindnerhof-Taktik Chief Executive Officer Jakob Kolbeck.
“Take, for example, our new MX463 Dump Pouch Small—a real game-changer that’s made from our innovative, advanced technology MX multiaxial laminate material,” Kolbeck continued. “Among the special features of this dump pouch is its mesh bottom which stops water from accumulating and stagnating inside. Additionally, the dump pouch has a stiffened opening so that, no matter the situation the user is in at any given moment, it’s not going to get in the way.”
Kolbeck pointed out that the MX463 Dump Pouch Small lacks PALS straps. “That might at first glance seem like a shortcoming, but it’s not because in the back are laser-cut slots that allow the pouch to be attached either by use of classic MALICE clips and anything similar or by using a the PALS straps of a common mag pouch, to loop the MX463 in between, which is a real space- saver.”
The MX463 Dump Pouch Small is intended to be used in combination with a traditional magazine pouch. Said Kolbeck, “It makes sense to pair them; they naturally complement each other because of usage and movement. So, for us, it was a given that we would create a dump
pouch capable of being directly integrated with a magazine pouch. Specifically, the MX463 Dump Pouch Small is meant to be positioned exactly where the magazine pouch is placed, which eliminates the need for the user to engage in repositioning. And, since there’s no repositioning necessary, the user is able to more nimbly handle and more rapidly change magazines.”
Kolbeck said the MX463 Dump Pouch Small is fully compatible with the other two items that Lindnerhof-Taktik rolled out today.
“We are very confident that users of our new MX301 Medic Pouch will appreciate the way it improves access to carried first-aid supplies,” he said. Basically, the bag is a two-part IFAK, consisting of an inlay and a cover. The cover can be fixed via a classic PALS/MOLLE setup or by using special slots in the back to loop it onto a belt. The inlay is fixed via Velcro® points in the cover.
“Our thinking was that, since users need free and fast anytime-access to their IFAK, the bag should be designed to offer release option that would be equally easy for right- and left-handed operators to use with just a single free hand.”
Kolbeck explained that the inlay of the MX301 Medic Pouch can be readily pulled out in order to create a configurable interior space for organising medic gear to suit user preferences. “Elastic loops and big compartments are available for this purpose,” he said. “At the top and bottom of the cover, elastic straps let users compress and secure the inlay, which then makes it possible to stow tourniquets. Also, on the front is a place for patches so that users can label their pouch and instantly see that it’s an IFAK.”
The third new item included in today’s launch, the LT686 Inner belt, is described by Kolbeck as ultra-low weight and slim. “We’ve stiffened it so that it serves as a stable base onto which users can confidently attach their pouches and other essentials,” he said. “Other important features include an easy-to-operate push-in buckle and looped attachment surfaces. It can be used with our MX560 Modular Belt Grid to create a pure modular belt for missions where a rappel belt isn’t needed.”
