FirstSpear Friday Focus – Gun Belts

Friday, July 21st, 2023

Whether you are law enforcement, military or a squared away civilian, you need reliable equipment that you can count on. FirstSpear belts offer durability and performance for when it counts most — on the X.

Discover FirstSpear’s flagship tactical belt, the Assaulter’s Gun Belt (AGB). This versatile belt is designed to handle tough situations and provide users with the best possible comfort and security. The AGB is accessed through a two-point, high strength metallic buckle that facilitates combat-equipped buddy drags. It can integrate with the AGB Padded Sleeve to provide more comfort and provide you with additional 6/12 attachment points.

Upgrade to the classic AGB, the Modular AGB was developed to be as close to an overt tactical load carriage belt as possible without compromising strength. The Modular AGB allows you to mount small 6/9 or MOLLE pockets directly to the belt, making it ideal for those who need a more secure way of carrying their gear.

The Tac Belt is also a reliable option. It features a sturdy metal buckle and is less stiff than the AGB and Modular AGB. Additionally, it features security loops so you can feel confident that your gear won’t fall off during dynamic operations. This belt is perfect for carrying pistol mags, folding knives or flashlights with belt clips on them, or any other small items you need to keep secure while on duty.

The Ultimate Temperature Regulation & Safety Package: Qore Performance launches ICEPLATE EXO-SLK in HiVis

Thursday, July 20th, 2023

Knoxville, TN — Qore Performance inc. expanded their safety/utility vest line with the introduction of their ICEPLATE EXO®-SLK in an all-new HiVis Safety Yellow colorway. Originally designed in black exclusively for Dutch Bros Coffee Arizona, ICEPLATE EXO®-SLK launched earlier this year.

ICEPLATE EXO®-SLK HiVis is intended for applications where some high visibility capability is desired, but where full Class 2 compliance is not necessary. Although designed for large-scale enterprises and institutions, ICEPLATE EXO-SLK is also used by enthusiasts across a variety of disciplines from scorching hot flight lines, to music festivals, to outdoor adventures like dirt/mountain biking.

Using the combat-specific ICEPLATE EXO® architecture as a foundation, ICEPLATE EXO®-SLK HiVis has organic SwiftClip compatibility to easily connect a matching HiVis MOLLE Placard for carrying essential equipment like radios, pens, first aid, external batteries, smartphones or just about any other tool you might need at work. A large Velcro Loop field makes branding or job identification incredibly easy.

Carrying Qore Performance’s signature thermoregulation product, ICEPLATE® Curve, in front and rear plate bags, ICEPLATE EXO®-SLK HiVis delivers 140 watts of cooling or 104 watts of heating and 100 fluid ounces of hydration in an ultralight, ultra-durable form factor optimized for intense athletic movement, yet comfortable enough for all day wear around the job site. ICEPLATE EXO®-SLK HiVis packs the power and durability found on ICEPLATE EXO®, but without all of the highly technical features specific to armed combat applications. This trade greatly increases accessibility for everyone: private and professional users alike.

ICEPLATE EXO®-SLK HiVis is now available for public purchase exclusively on QorePerformance.com. For more information or media inquiries, please visit www.QorePerformance.com or contact Qore Performance via email or by calling 703.755.0724.
