Messenger of Doom
Friday, June 11th, 2010
New from Hazard 4 is the Messenger of Doom or MOD Bag. Obviously, it is a messenger style and offers a generous amount of internal space for laptops, modular containers, and other equipment. Additionally, the MOD is slathered in PALS goodness in order to custom tailor loads. There is also a removable smooth sided flap that helps conceal the true purpose of the MOD Bag and makes it look like a mild-mannered although stylish computer bag.
The main compartment is actually large enough to carry a sub-machine gun while the laptop sleeve is accessible without opening the main compartment and will also accommodate an armor plate if you decide to leave your computer at home. Another great feature is the padded shoulder strap has a third attachment point to further stabilize the load. The MOD Bag is available in Black as well as Coyote and is made from 1000D Cordura.
I was fortunate enough to take a look at it during SHOT Show and am impressed. If you are in the market for a computer bag that does a little more than its contemporaries, the MOD Bag is worth checking out. www.Hazard4.com
Blackhawk Ergonomic Duty Belt Harness
Friday, June 11th, 2010
Designed to answer a Department of Justice requirement for a load carrying solution to help alleviate the large numbers of lumbar injuries suffered by law enforcement officer, Blackhawk developed the Ergonomic Duty Belt Harness. Designed to transfer the duty belt’s burden from the hips to the shoulder, it is also compatible with body armor. The idea is to share the load balancing it more between the hips and shoulders. In order to take full advantage of the harness, the duty shirt will need to be slightly modified with small buttonholes on the sides to accommodate the straps. The ergonomic duty belt harness is available in two sizes; small/medium and large/x-large.
US PALM Defender
Friday, June 11th, 2010
US PALM started out with a vision of an affordable plate carrier for use by the man defending his castle. Nothing too fancy, with simplicity key to the design. It also needed to carry everything on one package so in 5 seconds the user could transform himself from naked to fully equipped. What they came up with is simply remarkable. With five different designs, there is a solution for everyone. Even if the AR15, AK47, .308, or Pistol variants don’t fit your exact needs, a MOLLE version allows you to tailor a dedicated solution. Regardless of configuration, each Defender comes with a front panel equipped with Level III armor and is designed to accept a Large ESAPI plate. An optional armor equipped rear panel is also available.
Berry compliant and manufactured from 500D Cordura, the Defender series is available in Black, Khaki, Coyote, and MultiCam. www.US-PALM.com
