High Speed Gear Introduces the Uniform Line of Products
June 9th, 2023SWANSBORO, N.C. – June 12, 2023 – High Speed Gear® launches Kydex Uniform Line of duty pouches.
High Speed Gear, a renowned leader in tactical gear and equipment, proudly unveils its latest breakthrough in tactical and duty gear with the introduction of their Uniform Line. The Uniform line was designed with input from professionals in the field and meticulously crafted for Law Enforcement officers to maintain their professional and approachable appearance. These products are different from the HSGI TACO line of pouches in that they eliminate the need for shock cord and are specific to the equipment they are made to carry. The hard Kydex shell is waterproof, and mud and blood borne pathogens can easily be cleaned off. The Kydex material used in this line offers exceptional strength, rigidity, and retention properties. With enhanced impact resistance and chemical resilience, the Kydex line can withstand the harshest environments and provide long-lasting durability.
“We are thrilled to introduce our Uniform line, which represents the culmination of extensive research, development, and customer feedback,” said Bill Babboni, Chief Operating Officer at High Speed Gear. “Our commitment to delivering premium gear that exceeds expectations has driven us to develop the Uniform Line that offers unrivaled performance, reliability, and adaptability for our valued customers.”
The High Speed Gear Uniform Line of products takes up very little real estate on a duty belt or plate carrier. The products all feature retention screws for user preference adjustability and are shipped with either universal clips to attach to MOLLE or a PLM mount to attach to a belt. The Uniform Line is an expansion of the duty line by refining the aesthetic to meet the societal expectations of our law enforcement professionals. As of now, the Uniform line includes the following:
Uniform Double Magazine Carrier
Uniform Triple Magazine Carrier
Uniform Handcuff Carrier
Uniform Dip Can Carrier
Uniform Flashlight Carrier
Uniform OC Spray Carrier

Australia Defence Extends NIOA Strategic Munitions Deed
June 9th, 2023NIOA is set to provide the Australian Defence Force with key munitions options well into the second half of this decade, shoring up supplies against growing international supply chain pressure and responding to priorities identified in the Defence Strategic Review (DSR).
NIOA Australia and New Zealand CEO Ben James has welcomed Defence’s decision to extend the Major Munitions Deed (MMD) by five years.
Under the MMD, the Australian-owned prime is able to deliver more than 50 different munitions to the ADF, including small calibre ammunition, 40mm products, 120mm tank ammunition, aircraft decoy flares, smoke and 30mm ammunition providing options for purchase.
The MMD was established as a five-year, wide-ranging and flexible munitions standing offer deed with options to extend munitions acquisitions for a further 10 years in two five-year increments.
“The DSR noted the requirement to rapidly acquire ammunition stocks from existing suppliers and contractors” Mr James said.
“NIOA is proud to be extended as Defence’s strategic supply partner for the range of natures included in the MMD supporting ADF preparedness.
“Through the MMD, NIOA, with supply partners Northrop Grumman, Vista, Rheinmetall, Winchester and RUAG, will provide options to directly support accelerated preparedness objectives identified in the DSR.
“With a successful track record of proven delivery, NIOA’s partnership meets Defence’s objectives for reduced transactional costs associated with munitions supply arrangements, consolidated supply arrangements and modernising selected ADF munitions.”
NIOA is the largest supplier of non-guided munitions to the ADF delivering Australia the medium calibre munitions for the LAND 400 Rheinmetall Boxer CRV, a selection of mortar capability, as well as the products listed under the MMD.
