Ferro Concepts – GRAB

Thursday, February 19th, 2026

GRAB is a versatile, modular solution designed for end-users who require a discreet, adaptable, and durable carry system. Engineered with mission-specific customization in mind, GRAB integrates seamlessly into both covert and overt operational environments, providing enhanced functionality without compromising on profile or comfort.

I first heard about Ferro Concepts’ GRAB last year at Enforce Tac from some friends in the British Forces who were using them.

At SHOT Show I got a chance to check it out and I’m impressed. The quality is high and it doesn’t come across as a “tactical” bag but rather something you’d see on a young executive heading to work. I’m adapting one for use as my Urban Bag of Doom.

Sized perfectly to fit something the size of like, say a SIG Rattler, GRAB also has from for “extras” which can be organized thanks to an internal Velcro field and Removable Interior Thermoplastic Composite MOLLE Insert. In addition to zippered compartments for documents the front flap features a Fidloc closure.

Offered in Black and Graphite.

The FirstSpear TUBES™ GAS MASK POUCH is built for professionals who require immediate access to critical respiratory protection in high-threat environments. Compatible with the Tubes™ Attachment Accessory and Tubes™ Belt Mount Accessory, it mounts securely to plate carriers or belt rigs to match mission requirements.

The wide-opening design enables rapid deployment and efficient re-stowage when seconds matter. A protective hooded top shields the mask from debris, dirt, and adverse weather conditions. Retention is handled by a dual closure system combining hook-and-loop with a side-release (SR) buckle, ensuring the mask stays secure during movement while remaining instantly accessible.

This balance of speed and security supports operations where reliability is non-negotiable. Constructed for durability in austere conditions, the pouch withstands the rigors of hard use.

The Tubes™ Gas Mask Pouch keeps essential respiratory gear protected, locked in, and ready to deploy at a moment’s notice.

Blue Force Gear – ÖTZI Belt Pouch System

Wednesday, February 4th, 2026

This is really more of a sneak peek but it’s got such a great backstory that I’ve got to share it. Tucked in a corner on a shelf in the Blue Force Gear booth at SHOT Show was a pouch with a belt running through its attachment system. Behind it was a brochure with the name ÖTZI Belt Pouch System.

From the brochure:
The naming of Blue Force Gear’s new belt pouch innovation was inspired by Ötzi the Iceman, a 5,300-year-old Copper Age traveler discovered in the Alps and proclaimed the oldest and best-pre-served, naturally mummified human ever documented. Preserved in glacial ice, Otzi was found wearing a modular belt outfitted with equipment like a knife sheath, food/medicine pouch, and fire-start-ing kit. It stands as the earliest known example of a tactical belt, a testament to how long warriors have trusted a well-built waist rig to keep mission-critical gear exactly where it needs to be.

With attachments designed to accommodate their Law Enforcement Duty Belts and BFG CHLK /GRID / ISH Belts, there two mounting options. Molded belt loops for more traditional belts and direct attachment plate for belts with mounting holes. Both use nuts and bolts to secure the pouch and attachment together. In the case of the mounting plate option, it’s going to be a very low profile system.
