Magpul – DAKA XL Pouch

Tuesday, November 22nd, 2016

It was only a matter of time before Magpul released a DAKA pouch large enough for a laptop. For those of you unfamiliar with the DAKA line, they are made from polymer-infused textiles which are welded on all seams and incorporate a genuine YKK™ water resistant zipper. I woudn’t use it as an immersion bag, but it will keep your kit dry through most wet weather comditions. Most people use them for applications like tool storage or bulk storage of reloaded ammunition as well as lighter duties like organizing your personal electronic accessories.

Features:
-Extra Large Pouch size 9.8″x16.2″
-Reinforced polymer fabric with anti-slip texture
-Welded construction creates permanent impenetrable seals
-YKK AquaGuard® water repellant zipper
-550 paracord with heat shrink tubing for enhanced grip, even with gloves
-Paint pen dot matrix debossed into body for identification marking
-Carabiner attachment points

Prometheus Design Werx – Carry-all-Bag

Wednesday, November 16th, 2016

PDW’s new Carry-all-Bag (CaB-2) looks like a great way to carry their Tactical Picnic Blanket on outings.

A Rugged, Haul Bag to Use Everyday, Made in the USA

San Francisco based specialty outdoor products brand Prometheus Design Werx releases their universal “Carry All Tote Bag” designed to haul your extra camping gear and supplies, overlanding recovery equipment, firewood, a trip to the farmer’s market or grocery store, and anytime you need a rugged tote to carry everyday items. Made of rugged 1000D Cordura nylon, and constructed with full wrap webbing for extra strength, this simple yet highly versatile tote bag will tackle any random loads that you can fit inside it. PDW encourages users to stop using the plastic throw-away bags and get onboard with the re-usable CaB-2 for your daily carry needs. Featuring short and long carry straps, 4 organizer pockets, it also perfectly nests the American paper grocery bag. Designed and made in USA.

The Carry-All-Bag-2 is a part of their Made in USA CORE-Line of products by Prometheus Design Werx, and will be available in Black, OD Green, Coyote Brown and Wolf Gray.

The Design and R&D Team at PDW states:

“We wanted to create something very straightforward, durable, yet simple to use on a daily basis to haul those random loads when running out the door, a trip to the store, or heading out into the back country. It carries a load of firewood that is just about the perfect average weight that just about any adult can manage and on those raining stormy days that destroys the paper grocery bag, they’ll just slip right inside the CaB-2 and get your groceries safely home. Our families have used them for picking apples, tossing in supplies for a spontaneous picnic, trips to the beach, rock climbing gear, last minute camping to overlanding supplies, as a central brass collection point and even as an impromptu ice bucket to keep drinks cold. This bag’s strength is in their simplicity and broad spectrum of use. Made wit the classic proven 1000D Cordura means season after season of use. We always keep a few extra in our 4x4s and on the coat rack by the door.”


The PDW CAB-2 will be available for purchase on Wednesday, Nov 16, 2016 at 1:00pm PST via their website, prometheusdesignwerx.com.

Emdom – Baker Street Bag

Wednesday, November 9th, 2016

As soon as I saw the Baker Street Bag from Emdom I thought, “Mussette Bag” and it turns out I was right. After some inspiration from “Frank”, they designed it as a modern interpretation of the US 1936 M36 Musette Bag. If you’re not familiar with this WWII icon, it can be seen in a backpack configuration in the series “Band of Brothers” and in sling bag configuration in the movie “Fury”. 

The Emdom Baker Street Bag is designed with tons of internal organization capability, making it multipurpose as an everyday carry, range, or bail out bag.

Approximate dimensions: 12″ tall x 12” wide x 5” thick
Approximate weight: 2lbs 9oz

Available in MultiCam, Black, Coyote, Foliage Green, SDI Grey and Sewer Green.

Shadow Tech, LLC – Kestrel ATI Wind Wrap

Shadow Tech, LLC, best known for the Hog Saddle, has released a brand new product, The Kestrel ATI Wind Wrap. A good wind meter is an invaluable tool when precision shooting. In that regard, the Kestrel ATI Wind Wrap is an extremely useful accessory, as it serves as a retention device that allows the user to mount their Kestrel wind meter to a rifle sling, tri/bipod leg, or MALICE clip for immediate usage. The ATI Wind Wrap utilizes a soft mount which eliminates the effect rifle recoil has on a Kestrel’s internal electronics. Additionally, the Wind Wrap is made of Hypalon fabric, lined internally with a “special grippy material” which maintains grip in oily or wet conditions.

dscn1487

The Kestrel ATI Wind Wrap is 100% American made and Berry Compliant. Best of all, it’s officially approved by Kestrel themselves.

dscn1469-copy

The ATI Wind Wrap is being produced in two models: Kestrel 4500 – available at the time of writing, and Kestrel 5700 – available November 7th, both in Coyote Brown.

Max Velocity Tactical – 3X Special Forces Rig

Friday, October 21st, 2016

This new rig from Max Velocity Tactical came about after training an SF team at their facility in June (hence the 3X name, which is the team’s nickname).

Features:

-Accommodates up to 2 AN/PRC 152 radios, which are often very uncomfortably jammed up under a cummerbund against the ribs. This Team’s 18E does not allow radio carriage on the back, which has become pretty common becuase he wants the operator to be able to get at the radio.  Don’t carry 2 radios? Use the space for extra mags.

-Carries 4 mags in kydex inserts on the front of the body, vice Plate Carriers which often allow only space for 3 mag pouches.

-Ability to attach it to a PC with a PC attachment kit (sold separately), wear it over a PC using the supplied H-Harness, or wear it standalone in ‘recce mode.’


-No use of velcro / hook and loop. Even the available admin pouches use a tuck tab method for silent opening and closing.

Offered in MultiCam and Coyote.

Armageddon Gear – Range Utility Bag

Wednesday, October 19th, 2016


The product description for Armageddon Gear’s RUB is pretty funny.

We are not really sure what this bag is good for, but we got tired of George Gardner asking us to make it. So here it is. We’re sure you can figure it out. The obvious answer is to keep your loaded ammo on one side and then put your empties on the other side as you shoot ’em up. There are a million options, we’re sure.

Regardless, it’s a pretty good idea and proudly made in the USA of Mil-Spec materials. The RUB features the Armageddon Gear Lifetime Warranty and is available in Coyote or MultiCam.
