MATBOCK Monday – GRAVEROBBER Sustainment and Gram

Monday, August 24th, 2020

Happy MATBOCK Monday!

The Graverobber™ Assault Medic (GRAM) bag is the result of years of needed improvement in bags specifically designed for the team medic. CRO brings a multi-mission approach to the design with their well-thought-out adaptability, including a panel insert that converts to a skeleton med panel which can be clipped or slung using the thin padded shoulder straps. Remove to design a custom panel that is interchangeable for different packing requirements, or easily change bags with the versatility of a panel insert.

Lighter Faster Warriors, The MATBOCK ethos, is realized by the GRAM. MATBOCK Ghost® material is used throughout with Tegris reinforcements, giving the inside contents protection to allow for narcotics to be set up using a soft case.

The GRAM is designed to be mounted to an ALICE frame, giving the medic a slim assault bag that can be configured in many ways to enhance medical load carriage. This jumpable, water resistant bag bridges the gap between assault bags and en-route care, due to its expandable design and ability to hang.

This versatile, meticulously designed med bag was created with everyday medic load carriage in mind.

The Graverobber™ Sustainment Kit is a joint CRO Medical and MATBOCK project to bring a prolonged field care pack to the operational medic. It features the Sustainment bag, 4 x sustainment pouches, 4 x sustainment panels, and the Graverobber™ Drug Box. All made from MATBOCK Ghost and Ghost Light materials.

The Technical Mountain Ruck is a combination of the GRAVEROBBER Assault Medic (GRAM) Kit and the GRAVEROBBER Sustainment Kit. The GRAM easily zips to the outside of the sustainment bag to give the medic everything needed for both assault and prolonged medical operations. Made from MATBOCK’s Ghost and Ghost Light materials for superior water resistance, durability, strength and weight savings.

New MYSTERY RANCH Medic Pack: MOLE

Tuesday, July 28th, 2020

Designed for requirements around their winning bid in the Norwegian TCCC program, the MYSTERY RANCH MOLE fills the demand for a scaled-down, feature-rich medical pack. Every square inch of this pack was designed with function in mind.

At 22L, the MOLE is similar in size, but has a slimmer profile than its popular predecessor, the RATS pack. It is built with custom spec’d 500D CORDURA® with Teflon® and PU coatings for maximum durability, UV and weather protection and finished off with IR-compliant YKK® zippers. The MOLE is highly configurable with its carrying options and internal organization, adapting to changing mission profiles.

It features removable shoulder straps and waist belt, along with a system for attaching directly to body armor, and a top handle for multiple carrying options. Also noticeable is the incorporation of the removable Stick-it pouch for stowing a helmet, jacket or other bulky object on the outside. Underneath that are a sheath for trauma shears and dual tourniquet holders. The clamshell top lid opens widely for full-viewing access to contents.

Interior removable panel for single-access items.

External shear pocket with elastic on either side for quick access items (tourniquets).

The main compartment splays open via one-handed access from its two-zip design, allowing full access to the removable internal pouches inside the pack. An additional, internal handle keeps from fighting the top lid when hanging the pack to work out of.

The internal main compartment is lined with loop fuzz which allows you to customize its five removable medical pockets. Each pocket has clear vinyl windows and internal elastic bands to keep items tidy. An extra removable panel is included for even faster access to certain materials such as tourniquets, gauze and/or gloves. Two inner sleeves along the sides provide secure slots for splints or other long items.

Here’s a quick video detailing the MOLE:

MYSTERY RANCH really stayed focused on versatility and quick access on this pack. The MOLE has already been very popular in Europe as it launches here, looks to be a consideration for your combat trauma essentials. Check out the full line of medical military packs and accessories at MYSTERY RANCH.

We are pleased to collaborate with our friends at North American Rescue for kitting out our medical packs for these photos and videos. Please contact NARescue customer service to order medical contents as shown.

FirstSpear Friday Focus – VEP Modular Panel

Friday, July 17th, 2020

This Friday we are getting a look at a specialized pack from FirstSpear that offers an incredible amount of configurability to give operators one assault pack that can be tailored to meet their individual needs and rapidly changing mission sets. Meet the VEP Modular Panel featuring genuine 6/12 Laser Fused Platform and Quick-Release Tubes System.

The VEP Panel can be set up and worn in multiple configurations and includes four 2” Tubes straps to attach directly to the plate carrier keeping the underarms clear. The advantage of using FS Quick-Release Tubes lets the user don / doff the pack in mere seconds and even quickly throw the pack over the head or around the side when riding in vehicles or to access the pack contents without a teammate.

The entire system is remarkably thin, lightweight and configurable thanks to the 6/12 laser fused platform. Opposite of the 6/12 side is an adjustable mesh beaver tail pocket that is also removable. The panel is 100% user configurable and can be set up with the beaver tail side out or the 6/12 side out by simply adjusting a few buckles. The large 6/12 panel allows the operator to mount any style pocket or pouch where desired, perfect for the medic to the breacher and everyone in-between. There is one large internal zipper access the inside of the panel and works great for up to a 3L hydration bladder.

If all that was not enough FirstSpear also included two simple backpack straps you can quickly switch out and transform into a standard backpack worn with or without a plate carrier. Another innovative American made product from FirstSpear, available now in Multicam, Coyote Brown, Ranger Green, and Black. Pockets, hydration, and cell tag sold separately.

Mystery Ranch – Blaze Orange STICK-IT

Tuesday, June 23rd, 2020

I’ve always liked the Mystery Ranch STICK-IT but I just recently found out they make it in Blaze Orange.

Blaze is a great color for this pack accessory if you are a hunter, training with a ruck in high traffic areas, or for organizations conducting A&S activities as well as training pipelines. Anywhere you want high visibility.

Made from 500D Cordura, the STICK-IT is an add-on beavertail with contouring pleats to accommodate larger volume items. It attaches to all MR Guide Light Frame styles and most day packs via 1” hardware.

Mystery Ranch is out of stock, but bever fear, I found them at Schnee’s, a fantastic local sporting goods store in Bozeman.
