TYR Assaulters Sustainment Pack

Tuesday, March 8th, 2011

TYR Tactical just released their new low profile Assaulters Sustainment Pack which can be worn with its integral shoulder straps or attached directly to the back of an armor vest. Take a good look at the photo below. You can see that the “comfort panel” consisting of the shoulder straps and padding can be removed and this is how it attaches to the armor.

It’s a pretty streamlined design with a 360 cubic inch main compartment and additional 680 cubic inches in the expandable, mesh beavertail. The ASP is manufactured from the patent pending PV material in 500D. Overall it is pretty versatile with three hydration ports in addition to the requisite internal hydration reservoir pocket as well as an internal storage zipper pocket.

First-Light USA’s AMP Admin/Medical Pouch ADS

Thursday, December 9th, 2010

First-Light USA’s AMP (Admin/Medical Pouch) increases lighting versatility for Combat Medics and other soldiers who are currently using their Tomahawk Tactical Light in conjunction with their MOLLE vest. The pouch allows the Tomahawk to be positioned on the Soldier’s chest by providing a mounting surface for First-Light’s MOLLE Tactical Retention System (TRS). This eliminates the need to wear body armor in training scenarios, as well as a myriad of other scenarios, in order to utilize the hands free functionality of the Tomahawk. When body armor is required, the straps on the AMP can removed and it can be attached directly to the PALS webbing, and used as a standard admin pouch. In addition to providing a mounting surface for the Tomahawk with TRS, essential equipment, such as writing tools, notepads, bandages, medications, etc. can be stowed within the pouch for easy access. The AMP is made in the USA by Tyr Tactical and constructed of 500D Cordura Nylon with ample exposed loop Velcro on the flap and front surface for attaching identification patches. Fully adjustable and fast-connecting straps and buckles allow for quick fitting of the pouch for all sized Soldiers.

The AMP and other First-Light products can be seen next at the SOMA (Special Operations Medical Association) Conference in Tampa, December 10 – 12. They’ll also be at the SMA Nominative Conference at Ft Bliss, January 10 – 12 and SHOT Show in Vegas, January 18 – 21. Additionally, the entire First-Light line is available for agency purchase from ADS.

S.O.Tech has just released several new accessories for their SOCOM issue Mission Go Bag.

Mission Go Bag Flap

Personal Electronics Pouch

Water Bottle Pouch

BLoCS Eye Pro and Admin Hard Case

Everything else is pretty self explanatory, but we have got to say a couple of things about this. It’s an ergonomic glasses case that doubles as an admin pouch. Eyepro is protected by a foam lined hard case. Inside the case are also loops for AA and 123 batteries, a SureFire 6P sized flashlight, and two pens. There are two internal pockets for ear plugs or other items. On the outer face is a fold down window for note cards, ID, or small GPS device. The front of the flap has hook and loop for patches and the bottom of the pouch has two loops for chem lights. One pair of Paladin Shooting Glasses are included with each pouch.

ATS Small Medical Pouch Issued NSN

Friday, October 8th, 2010

The MultiCam version of the Small Medical Pouch from ATS Tactical has been issued National Stock Number 6545-01-587-2073. This is very significant because a military organization had to adopt the pouch and to order it in enough quantities to justify issuing an NSN.

It is a classic zipper closed “clam-shell” design with a large Red tear-away handle. The interior features elastic to keep medical supplies organized when the pouch is opened. The pouch also has an interior slot pocket for smaller items. The back of the pouch is covered in hook so it can be attached and quickly removed from the platform which features a large swath of pile. Additionally, ATS has developed a straight forward solution to the PALS interoperability with their patented L-Straps which are simple and hold the pouch fast.

In addition to the platform that comes with the pouch, ATS has just released a Special Forces Back Panel, that accommodates the pouch. Look for more info here shortly.

ATS reports that NSNs are forthcoming for both the UCP and Coyote variants. It is also available commercially in Black and Ranger Green. The Small Medical Pouch is available for sale from Grey Group Training and Supply Captain. ATS products are berry compliant and come with a lifetime guarantee.
