FirstSpear Friday Focus – Multi-Purpose Pack Available As Non-Standard Non-Stocking

Friday, February 17th, 2017

This week, we take a peek into a line of designs seldom seen outside of the organizations who commissioned them. Non-Standard Non-Stocking items have been designed by FirstSpear at the request of Professional Users to meet a unique mission set. Occasionally, FirstSpear will make a few extra. Due to the specialized nature and limited production of these items, colors are limited.

Originally developed as a medical pack for a US Special Operations unit, this pack can easily be adapted for use as a range bag, E&E pack, or 1 day pack. Features include hydration compartment, padded shoulder straps, 5 external pockets and compression straps.

It’s harvested from sheep out West and milled into a proprietary blend which capitalizes on Merino’s naturally occurring properties, all without the itch.

FirstSpear Friday Focus – Tactical Hand Warmer

Friday, January 27th, 2017

The cold weather doesn’t seem to be going away any time soon so we thought we’d revisit the Tactical Hand Warmer for this week’s FirstSpear Friday Focus.

Not only does it keep your hands warm and fingers nimble in cold weather, it stuffs into a compact storage bag when not needed. It also can attach directly to an armor vest and hang below, right where your hands lie while seated.

The fleece lining is super comfy and the Tactical Hamd Warmer can be tightened with the shock cord.

In Stock Now in Coyote, Ranger Green and Black.

FirstSpear Friday Focus – Speed Bag

Friday, December 30th, 2016

On today’s Friday Focus, we’re going to update you on the FirstSpear Speed Bag. Unfortunately, they’re discontinuing it, but there are still some available.

At one end of the Speed Bag is a zippered mesh pouch that fits the FirstSpear Helmet Hut. This same compartment can also be used to separate wet/dirty clothing and equipment from other gear within the bag. An external zippered pocket on the opposite end is sized for rapid access of smaller essential items or fits a fully loaded FirstSpear Fight Strap.

Two full-length zippered compartments on each side of the bag are sized to fit short-barreled rifles, sub-guns, or a breaching shotgun. The main compartment of the Speed Bag is accessed by a full-length zipper and is configured to fit a complete set of body armor, equipped AGB and uniform. Over-sized nylon webbing handles can be used a hasty shoulder strap, a reinforced bottom panel, and a small organizer pocket on the outside are all standard. A square of loop pile lets you attach your FS Cell Tag to the outside making your Speed Bag quickly identifiable.

It has been moved to the non-stocking non-standard section on first-spear.com and available in Ranger Green and MultiCam only. They are offering it while supplies last, with FREE padded weapon inserts ($80 value). FirstSpear has a limited stock and when they are gone they are gone. Don’t miss this chance for a great price on a great piece of kit.
