Tasmanian Tiger Launches Red Medic Line for Enhanced Visibility and Rapid Access in High-Stress Environments

Monday, July 28th, 2025

New red colorway designed to meet the demands of TEMS, EMS, and Combat Medics for high-visibility medical gear.

Knoxville, Tenn. (July 2025) – Tasmanian Tiger®, a tactical nylon line of products distributed exclusively for the US market by Proforce Equipment, Inc., proudly introduces its Red Medic Line – a new collection of its most trusted medic packs, bags, and pouches now available in bright red with high-visibility yellow zip pulls. This new line was developed in response to end-user and customer feedback, identifying the need for medical gear that stands out from the dark tones of traditional tactical kits. In high-stress, time-critical environments such as tactical emergency medical services (TEMS), EMS response, or combat operations, gear that is easy to identify and access can be crucial for survival.

For years, Tasmanian Tiger has delivered field-tested medic solutions in standard military colors like coyote, black, and olive. However, professionals in the field emphasized the need for medical-specific gear in red—a globally recognized color for emergency response—to reduce delays caused by searching through similarly colored equipment. The Red Medic Line enhances visual contrast in packs, vehicles, and aid stations, allowing medics to locate essential supplies without hesitation.


TT Modular Medic Combat Pack 18


TT Small Medic Pack MKII


TT Tac IFAK Pouch

The new line includes a wide range of solutions to support various mission profiles and loadout preferences: the TT First Responder Move On MKIII, a modular dual-pack system with a detachable front pack; the TT Medic MASCAL Pack, designed for mass casualty incidents; the TT Modular Medic Combat Pack 18, an 18-liter tactical backpack with a full circumferential zipper for rapid access; and the compact TT Small Medic Pack MKII and TT Medic Hip Bag, ideal for mobile or low-profile applications. The line also features the TT Tac IFAK Pouches (M and S sizes) with reverse MOLLE systems and organized internal layouts, as well as the TT Tourniquet Pouch II, built for quick deployment of CAT or similar tourniquets.

The TT Red Medic Line is available now through Authorized Tasmanian Tiger dealers.

XTech Tactical Brings the Bling with “Gold”, “Chocolate Chip Camo, & “Marble” MAG47’s

Tempe, AZ

XTech Tactical launched the MAG47 line up with one offering in a single color (Black 30rd). Since that time the company has stayed true to its core of giving customers a voice. Nine full production variants and dozens of special editions later, we have the best AK47 magazine line up on the market.

However, until today the company never serviced the “Gucci” or “Bling Bling” sub markets of the AK. In fact the first non-black variant, the “Rotten Banana Clip” had the objective of creating the world’s ugliest magazine. Enter a new chapter with these three new offerings!

Release #1: The “Marble” Edition MAG47. In partnership with Emerald City Cerakote, a unique magazine that is a true masterpiece. The blend of colors and dimension photographs great but it can only be truly appreciated in person. There is also an argument to be made that it may provide some field camouflage if in a marble auditorium.

Release #2: The “Gold” MAG47. For years customers had requested this magazine, however, in testing, the paint options on the market did not meet the company’s durability requirements. Cerakote finally released a new Gold color and it’s incredible! Complete with a black base plate and custom series sticker, and you have the ultimate Golden AK magazine!

Release #3: The “Chocolate Chip Camo” MAG47. The perfect blend of artistic pop and functional camo. This may be the first magazine that alters the definition of fun in the dictionary. The Cerakote stenciled pattern of the magazine will last for years

About the MAG47: Developed due to no true battle readyAmerican made AK magazine on the market, the MAG47 is simply unmatched for durability, reliability, fitment, and value. The only worthy competition such as Arsenal Circle 10 magazines are significantly higher in cost. Available both in a waffle style and slab side style and with and without BHO followers.

TwinNeedle ALICE Pack Straps and Hip Pad Now Available Through OP Tactical

Monday, July 28th, 2025

TwinNeedle—New Zealand’s trusted name in military-grade gear—has just made it easier for U.S. customers to upgrade their ALICE pack setup. Their renowned ALICE Pack Straps and Hip Pad will now be available stateside through OP Tactical.

Designed and handmade in New Zealand, TwinNeedle’s ALICE strap and pad system is a significant upgrade from standard-issue components. Built for those who use their kit hard, the design prioritises comfort, stability, and durability without compromising on weight or functionality.

Why This Setup Stands Out:

Hip Pad:

  • 1.5x thicker than standard issue hip pad for superior lumbar support
  • Contoured shape with rounded ends to resist wear
  • Secures with 3″ webbing through ALICE frame slots and dual 1″ webbing + ladderlocs
  • Optional “gut belt” integration via 2” ladderlocs
  • Will also fit MALICE and PALICE frames

Shoulder Straps:

  • Cut from one-piece of 1000D Cordura with Airmesh for breathability
  • Dual-layer reinforcement at buckle mounting points
  • 42-stitch bartacks at high-stress areas
  • Includes sternum slider, D-ring for hydration hose/radio handsets, and adjustable load lifter

Yoke & Harness:

  • Central yoke panel distributes load and ensures long-term durability
  • Reinforced with three 42-stitch bartacks at all major joins
  • Hitched webbing attachment & multiple bartacks mimic rappelling anchor construction
  • Horizontal and vertical stabilizers reduce sway and allow for a custom fit

Built to Last:

  • Webbing: A-A-55301 Type III (453.5kg direct pull rating)
  • Fabrics: 500D & 1000D Cordura + 4mm Airmesh
  • Foam: 25mm PE35 closed-cell (hip) / 15mm EVA (harness)
  • Fittings: ITW Ghillietex
  • Thread: A-A-59826 T-90 nylon bonded
  • All visible materials are NIR compliant

“Great replacement for the straps originally supplied with my ALICE pack frame. Wish I’d purchased the TwinNeedle straps sooner… they make an ALICE pack super comfy to carry. Highly recommend.”

These are, in TwinNeedle’s own words, the comfiest ALICE Pack Straps available—and they’re built for anything you throw at them.

SK Guns Supports International Association of Bomb Technicians & Investigators

Sunday, July 27th, 2025

ST. AUGUSTINE, Fla. – July 24, 2025 – SK Guns®, the Nation’s only series-driven, limited-edition manufacturer of custom firearms, supported the 53rd International Association of Bomb Technicians & Investigators (IABTI) International In-Service Training and Expo (IIST) through its SK Gives Back initiative.

The expo took place June 22 – 27 in Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida. As part of the event, SK Guns donated the #053 Solo Lobo (translated: “Lone Wolf”) pistol chambered in .38 Super. This custom-engraved firearm was auctioned off to raise funds for the IABTI during the convention. The funds raised help bomb technicians and investigators across the world be as educated and effective as possible.

“It can’t be overstated how dangerous the life of a bomb technician can be. Training and education for these members of our military, law enforcement and first responder communities is absolutely vital,” said Simon Khiabani, owner and founder of SK Guns. “We are proud to use our SK Gives Back initiative to support the IABTI and help fund the research and training programs they work on throughout the year.”

The IABTI IIST is the premier global event for bomb technicians and investigators to refine their skills and network with other international experts. The event provided attendees with a new perspective on the industry, access to career pathways, research and professional development opportunities.

“We are so grateful to Simon for his kindness and willingness to help the IABTI conference, which helps facilitate well needed training to bomb technicians around the world,” said Scott Wright, St. Johns County deputy and explosive ordnance disposal technician.

PSQ Payments Partners with Atrius Development Group to Provide Payment Services After Sudden Cancellation From Former Vendor

Friday, July 25th, 2025

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla.– PSQ Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: PSQH) (“PublicSquare” or the “Company”) today announced its new partnership with Atrius Development Group, a leading innovator in precision rearm components, after the sudden cancellation of Atrius’s payment services by a major vendor. PSQ Payments collaborated closely with the Atrius team to onboard their business, restore checkout functionality, and ensure uninterrupted access to their high-quality rearms components for their eager customers.

“This partnership with Atrius is a reminder that for PSQ Payments, our financial technology efforts are about much more than just processing payments; it’s about standing up for American businesses that are being unfairly targeted,” said Michael Seifert, Chairman and CEO of PublicSquare. “Atrius builds high-performance components for firearm owners protected by the Second Amendment, and we are proud to ensure they receive the respect and service they deserve. PSQ Payments continues to expand its reach across industries affected by financial censorship, with highly competitive rates, live US-based support, and mission-aligned services to freedom-loving businesses nationwide.”

Atrius is known for its agship Forced Reset Selector for the AR-15 platform. However, the company faced unexpected disruptions to its business when its previous payment processor terminated their relationship without warning, citing ideological objections rather than compliance issues or operational concerns. This left the Atrius and its customers in a sudden bind, unable to complete legitimate transactions for legal products.

Atrius resumed full online checkout capabilities within days of the transition. The partnership highlights the shared mission of both companies: defending free enterprise, supporting pro-liberty businesses, and providing alternatives to financial institutions that prioritize politics over principles.

“At a time when we were facing real adversity and being overlooked or mistreated by the very partners we once trusted, PSQ Payments stepped in, not just as a financial partner, but as a believer in our mission,” stated Ryan Spadafore, Founder & CEO of Atrius. “As an American-made company built by everyday Americans and veterans alike, our foundation is rooted in advancing the 2A rights of all Americans. The PSQ Payments team understood that, and their support gave us the breathing room to regroup, rebuild, and stay aligned with our purpose. Our singular focus has always been impact, and this partnership was a turning point for Atrius Development Group. Together we win.”
