GBRS GROUP Assaulter Belt System

Tuesday, May 25th, 2021

Developed by Tier One operators and made in the USA by LBT inc, the GBRS GROUP Assaulter Belt System takes a different design approach.

Most operator or gun outer belts use multiple layers of rigid materials sewn together with a lightweight and pliable webbing material to attach equipment to. This typically results in an uncomfortable and overly thick belt. The GBRS GROUP Assaulter Belt System utilizes a two-layer outer belt to create a lightweight, flexible yet rigid and stable platform to attach equipment, holsters and accessories. This is done by using Type 13, 1-23/32” webbing as the base, with a field of PALS webbing, laser cut from a semi rigid polymer (Tegris). To round it off, they double “W” stitch the webbing to a load rated, 1.75” Austrialpin Cobra buckle with a D-ring for attaching lanyards and other equipment. The outer belt has an inner facing of “loop” style Velcro, to attach to a low profile “hook” inner belt. They did this because hook should never be worn towards body, especially in such a high wear area (belt line).

The inner belt system is actually 2 part. It consists of a low profile “hook” inner belt and a “shroud” to cover the inner belt when the outer Assault belt is not in use. This results in a system that not only doubles as a non-metallic EDC belt, but it is a comfortable and convenient way to cover the scratchy “hook” portion of the inner belt. When the outer belt is needed, simply remove the inner belt “shroud” and attach the outer Assaulter belt to the inner belt.

FirstSpear Friday Focus: Medical Kit

Friday, April 30th, 2021

This week’s FS focus looks at medical kit and items, including a pack, IFAK Medical Thong and two pouches.

The Medical Trauma Assault Pack (MTAP), Thin Profile features a large zippered pocket allowing access to the contents. It also integrates the bungee attachment points to secure odd sized items as well as three “tear out” pockets which can be tossed to others providing aid. An easily accessed grab handle will allow the pack to be hung in vehicles or airframes.

The Special Operations Forces (SOF) Medical Pouch securely holds organized, individual first aid items. A half-moon zipper allows rapid access to the inside of the pocket and also enables quick closure. Attach to your platform with FirstSpear 6/12 or 6/9. Loop faced fabric square on the exterior allows for mounting of FirstSpear Cell Tags.

The FirstSpear Tourniquet Pouch is designed to securely hold one CAT or TQs Style tourniquet, or similar sized medical supplies. With a highly visible red release tab, the pouch opens quickly to allow instant access to the tourniquet. Utilizing the FirstSpear 6/9 attachment system this pouch can be attached to all 6/12™ platforms and also compatible with older MOLLE systems. Additionally, it can be directly attached to FirstSpear’s line of belts including the Assaulters Gun Belt (AGB) and Line One Belt.

The Improved IFAK Med Thong has some new features that will help you in the field. It has a 6/9 attachment style and 6/12 slits have been added in key areas of this item which has increased its versatility so it will now work with the FS TQ Pocket or the new Rapid Access Pocket Pressure Dressing. The thong is also capable of fitting a variety of IFAKS. When space on your chest rig or plate carrier is at a premium, this component will let you add a few extra critical items that you would rather not have in your pack or left behind. The thong will accommodate a variety of IFAK sizes from 5″x7″x3″ to a 5″x9″x3″.
