I’ve been after Mystery Ranch to let me run their IFAK. It’s been under development and refinement for awhile and it’s almost ready to order (Kent says 60 days). As you can see it is a butterfly design that opens up to reveal your medical equipment.

It features a PALS attachment on the rear so you can attach it to your equipment.

It’s also available in a larger VLAK (Vehicle Litter Aid Kit) that is basically double the size of the IFAK. Mystery Ranch will also offer them kitted with medical supplies from North American Rescue.

The Officer Survival Initiative Launches New Sons Trauma Kit by Phokus Research

Tuesday, January 8th, 2013

The Officer Survival Initiative (OSI) is partnering with Phokus Research Group, to make the revolutionary Sons Trauma Kit available to the law enforcement and civilian markets.

Sons Trauma Kit

The Sons Trauma Kit was originally designed by a US Navy SEAL and has been strenuously tested and combat-proven over the past two years in Iraq and Afghanistan. Designed and engineered for maximum efficiency, the innovative Sons Trauma Kit eliminates bulky medical pouches by fitting easily, securely and comfortably behind medium ballistic plates, underneath concealable armor, or in hydration packs or sleeves. The Sons Trauma Kits are packed in heavy-duty medical-grade vinyl and pressure sealed with RF welded seams. The kits feature a patent pending pull-tab and “rip-cord” for quick deployment and contents are designed around injury patterns in order of priority for battlefield or gunshot wound trauma treatment. Custom kitting for agencies and groups is also available through OSI.

ITS Tactical Releases New Tallboy ETA Trauma Kit

Saturday, January 5th, 2013

ITS ETA Trauma Kit Pouch - Tallboy 01

The Tallboy ETA Trauma Kit and Pouch are the newest additions to the ITS Medical line up and have been in development for over a year with Haley Strategic and Zulu Nylon Gear. Taking the principles of their proven ETA Trauma Kit Pouch, they refined a few features and developed an additional horizontal mounting method.

ITS ETA Trauma Kit Pouch - Fatboy 01

The original ETA Trauma Kit Pouches, now dubbed the “Fatboy” share the refined sewn and color-matched webbing pull handle with removable red Velcro One-Wrap to denote medical components. With a simple pull on the handle, the pouch quickly filets open to provide immediate access to your medical components without delay.

ITS ETA Trauma Kit Pouch - Tallboy 14

The Tallboy ETA Trauma Kit Pouch moves from the wider three column PALS/MOLLE mounting of the Fatboy to a slim two-column mount, taking up no more real estate than a double mag pouch.

They’ve also re-packed their kits to fit in the new Tallboy configuration and you now have the option of ordering Fatboy or Tallboy Trauma Kits. While the new Tallboy vacuum sealed kits will fit in most double mag pouches, they highly recommend a dedicated pouch like the Tallboy ETA Trauma Kit Pouch, or ensuring a proper visual indicator for medical equipment is affixed.

ITS ETA Trauma Kit - Tallboy Fatboy Combo 01

Along those lines, all of the ETA Trauma Kit Pouches, both Fatboy and Tallboy, now come with a Med PVC Patch included. With the new Tallboy pouches, they’ve also included extra short MALICE clips in addition to the set of tall clips.

ITS ETA Trauma Kit Pouch - Tallboy 15

This ensures you can mount the new Tallboy pouch in any configuration you need to, both horizontally or vertically. MOLLE/PALS aside, you can also thread the short MALICE Clips in a horizontal configuration to easily affix the Tallboy pouch to a standard belt. A battle belt can be used for proper MOLLE/PALS mounting, but isn’t required.
