Haley Strategic Partners Introduces the D3X
Monday, March 24th, 2014
If you own a HSP Disruptive Environments Chest Rig (D3CR), then you want to check out this new line of accessories. The D3CR Expansion System (D3X) was built around end users who needed to quickly adapt to situations where posture could flip between overt/low signature to covert/low visibility.
The System has 3 specific components:
The Double Magazine Wedge provides two additional rifle magazine pouches without significantly impacting the depth of the rig.
The Holster Wedge is an envelope of Velcro covered Cordura panels in which an end user can run a holster, ideally with loop on the exterior of the holster body. Optimized for G-Code OSH holsters, the system will work with most any holster with loop on the exterior of the holster body.
The Multi-Mission Hanger is a drop down pouch with a loop interior suitable for storing med kits, NVGs, breaching equipment and other vital pieces of equipment.
Attaching seamlessly to the hook panel on the back of every D3CR, the components can be used individually or pancaked into a Holster/Hanger or Double Mag/Hanger combo. These components will work on the stand-alone rigs, as well as when clipped into any plate carrier using the Velocity Systems Swift Clip Attachment System, ideally armor carriers made by Velocity Systems and Mayflower Research & Consulting.

FirstSpear Friday Focus – Speed Bag
Friday, March 21st, 2014
While I was previewing FirstSpear’s current line up over the Summer, a really cool duffel-style bag stuck out. It had a couple of compartments and this awesome mesh pocket attached to the end that accepts their Helmet Hut. It was beyond cool. I’ve been after them for some time to create a video because it’s got so many neat features. In this week’s Friday Focus, FirstSpear has satisfied that request. Behold, the Speed Bag!
FirstSpear took the basic issue duffel bag and completely modernized it for use with modern PPE, adding several features.
In addition to the Helmet Hut, the Speed Bag also accepts several other accessories including the 6/12 organizer panel, padded weapon insert, and shoulder straps.
The stowable Reinforced Long-Haul Shoulder Straps are pretty innovative and the set stows out of the way in a sleeve on the top of the Speed Bag when not needed to carry heavy loads.
In addition to accommodating the Helmet Hut, that mesh pocket at the end of the Speed Bag is great for dirty or wet clothing and boots, keeping them segregated form your other gear. At the opposite end of the Speed Bag there’s an external zippered pocket that fits a fully loaded FirstSpear Fight Strap which is a bandoleer that accommodates 5 magazines to get you quickly into the fight or rapid resupply to those already there.
Two full-length zippered compartments on each side of the bag are sized to fit short-barreled rifles, sub-guns, or a breaching shotgun. They accept the Speed Bag Weapon Insert Panel (Sold Separately). In addition to protecting your weapon during transport, these panels will can be folded out flat for weapons maintenance or used as a hasty mat for shooting on rocky ground.
Length: 28″ Height: 14″ Width: 13″ Made in USA and offered in Black, Coyote, Ranger Green and MultiCam.
FirstSpear would like to offer a cool deal. When you purchase a Speed Bag, you will receive one free 6/12 organizer panel to help organize your kit as well as a free Padded Breakaway Sling.
