Platatac has recently released two new products: a new combat belt, and a Special Forces bronze figurine.
Platatac Soldier Integrated Combat Cobra (SICC) Belt Mk2
The SICC Belt Mk2 is Platatac’s update on the classic SICC belt. The primary addition to the updated belt is an additional column of MOLLE-compatible webbing to better support the attachment of pouches, which makes the SICC Mk2 an even more stable platform for a pistol holster. Manufactured from high strength, abrasion resistant webbing, and featuring an aluminum Cobra Buckle, the SICC Mk2 is also great for running mag pouches, multiple utility pouches for general use, or just holding up a pair of pants.
Available in Black, Khaki, and MultiCam.

Mayflower Research and Consultinghas introduced two new, purpose built, Helium Whisper assault panels consisting of the Type 1 Mod 2 and the Type 2. Like I said, they are purpose built and designed to accommodate the minimum amount of equipment for short duration dismounted missions. It’s all about the application and associated load. Both are PALS compatible and while they were designed for use with MRC vests, they will adapt to a wide variety of platforms. Just a note, both panels in Coyote Brown and MultiCam are on the shelf now, but Mayflower promises additional colors to follow. Naturally, these are made in the USA.
The Assault Back Panel Type 1 Mod 2 HW features a redesigned main body to carry a greater variety of 50-70 oz water bladders; the upper zippered pouch is designed to hold the SOCOM issued NVG protective insert, the bottom pouch is designed as a re-moveable medical pouch.
The re-moveable medical pouch features internal elastic retainers, a flat Velcro external pouch and elastic on the bottom to hold a tourniquet.
The Assault Back Panel Type 2 HW has a main body has been designed to carry a 100 oz/3L water bladder; the top row of pouches is designed to carry four flash bangs or four 40mm grenades, the upper zippered pouch is designed to hold the SOCOM issued NVG protective insert, the bottom pouch is designed as a re-moveable medical pouch. The re-moveable medical pouch features internal elastic retainers, a flat Velcro external pouch and elastic on the bottom to hold a tourniquet.
Haley Strategic has just released a new variant of their Disruptive Environments Chest Rig designed to support .308 platforms.
The D3CR-H features 4 .308 magazine pouches with Hypalon magazine retention tabs. They are designed to fit almost any .308 magazine, including:
The two Multi-Mission pouches also feature Hypalon magazine retention tabs, and are designed to accept a variety of single and double stack pistol magazine, as well as many handheld lights and multi-tools.
Also included with the D3CR-H is the GP Pouch and Tool Pouch. The GP pouch is designed for medical, compass, GPS, phone, batteries, and other small electronics. The Tool pouch includes elastic keepers for Kestrel wind meters, ballistic calculators, dope cards, batteries, tool, and various electronics. Both pouches are zippered, and feature external hook loop panels for ID or morale patches.
The D3CR-H is designed without a radio or dedicated full size medical pouch, so no matter the posture, essentials such as comms and med kits can remain on the end user at all times. It is also compatible with the Haley Strategic D3 Expansion System, which allows the user to add features such as the Holster Wedge or Multi-Mission Hanger pouch.
The D3CR is constructed of 500D nylon, and is available in Coyote and MultiCam. Made in the USA.
The new GRT Adapter allows most pouches to be used with the SSP Gear Retention Track. Additionally, the mounting plate can accept most pistol magazine pouches for use as a double pistol magazine pouch. One application that I really like is that the GRT mounting plate is compatible with Safariland’s single injection molded pistol magazine pouch. I really like it. Naturally, it works with virtually any other soft pistol/rifle mag pouch as well.
Materials:
• Machined 6061 GRT adapter
• Plastic mounting plate
