High Threat Concealment & Rogue Gunfighter Join TAG for SOFIC 2013
Tuesday, May 7th, 2013Be sure to visit HTC, Rogue Gunfighter and TAG at next week’s SOFIC in Booth #951. At SHOT Show their booth was swamped and I couldn’t get a word in edgewise to talk to them. Hopefully, I’ll get a chance to catch up with them at SOFIC.
Following up on their debut at this year’s National Shooting Sports Foundation’s SHOT Show, High Threat Concealment will be partnering again with Rogue Gunfighter, LLC and Tactical Assault Gear (TAG – by Durham, North Carolina based LC Industries) at the 2013 Special Operations Forces Industry Conference (SOFIC).
High Threat Concealment™ specializes in the development of low-profile / high capability tactical gear for close protection and low-visibility operations in restrictive or non-permissive environments. Last year, HTC™ joined forces with LC Industries (who owns Tactical Assault Gear) in a partnership to expand and enhance manufacturing capabilities and distribution potential. As an industry leader in providing career opportunities for the blind and visually impaired, LC Industries brings a unique combination of talents and expertise in providing quality products and services for the US government and its component agencies.
This unique partnership with LCI and low-visibility innovators such as Rogue Gunfighter, HTC™ is poised to address the ever-increasing demand for products designed around current tactics favoring a reduced tactical profile in both domestic law enforcement and throughout current theaters of war.
Look for High Threat Concealment™ products, available now through the Tactical Assault Gear Store, and stop by Booth #951 at SOFIC to see the latest products from HTC™, Rogue Gunfighter and TAG.”

New Belt Systems from HTC
Tuesday, November 6th, 2012High Threat Concealment has developed two new belt systems to supplement their Low Profile System which was recently adopted for use by all DS Agents going to high threat posts overseas. That issue system is in the same FDE as the LPS I have been using quite satisfactorily for shooting courses.
Both of HTC’s new belts can act as a traditional “duty belt”. The difference is in their “profiles”. Obviously, the Low Profile version is well suited for wear with a sport coat and the High Profile version acts more like a rigger’s belt.
The Low Profile Belt System is an over belt/under belt system that makes the LPS rig a “fast attach” gear option. The over belt is a hybrid leather and nylon belt with loop along the inner portion of the belt. This belt is woven through the LPS. Once it is properly set up and spaced the way the user wants, the system can then be thrown on quickly and secured via the hook and loop tape under belt. It can be further secured in place by placing the over belt through the two front traditional pants belt loops. The under belt is made out of stiff nylon and has hook along it’s outer. The unique part of the Low Profile Belt System is that the belt looks like a standard leather dress belt when worn with a blazer, sport coat, or open button down shirt while the rest of the system is concealed under the clothing. HTC has a provisional patent for the belt and are waiting on the final patent paperwork.
HTC related to us that the Low Profile Belt system is also a great alternative to the traditional police style duty belts as it’s much lighter and more comfortable than most all leather versions. Yet, the front portion, the portion you see, gives it that leather appearance.
The second belt system is a High Profile Belt System that is similar to the Low Profile version but instead of the leather front and standard belt buckle, it comes fitted with a life-support capable Cobra buckle. This belt was designed specifically by request for the DS Special Skills Branch and gives the user the option to have a more overt profile. It is perfect for those assigned to QRF or Special Response Teams.
HTC informed us that we should see a full public release of these new belts as well as the LPS in FDE in late December/early January; just in time for SHOT Show. HTC will be with LCI/TAG and have the belts there for everyone to see and try on.
Rogue Gunfighter – The Rundown
Monday, October 15th, 2012
Their motto is, “Fight Fast, Light, Ready be Unpredictable”. They apply “reality from experience” to what they do. You might already ‘know’ Rogue Gunfighter and not even realize it. We’ve been hearing snippets here and there for months from friends all around the industry. Once you learn a little more, you’ll start to put some pieces together like we did. They’ve got a lot going on and it’s pretty exciting stuff.
Rogue Gunfighter, LLC was formed in 2012 by a group of friends who have worked and operated together in some of the worlds most undesirable place to include Yemen, Libya, South American, Europe, Iraq, Afghanistan, the Indian Ocean and Pakistan. Our culture is derived from the “Gunfighter” lifestyle and warrior ethos. We come from diverse backgrounds to include all branches of the US Military Branches to include SOCOM, OGA, Intelligence, Anti Piracy/Ship Protection and High Threat Protection.
RG has worked with some great companies like Troy Industries, TAG, High Threat Concealment, Smith and Wesson, Insight Technologies/L-3, Eotech, LCI, Smith Optics, Rogue American Apparel, Team Wendy and Kill Cliff. We recently finished a fun project utilizing equipment and gear mentioned above.
Let’s start off with their armor carrier. The RG Multi-Purpose Operation Carrier. It’s a slick, low-profile rig that can be worn over or under clothing depending on the mission. It incorporates load carriage that doesn’t get in the way when not in use.
They also offer a removable MOLLE panel for more overt use.
As you can see, they are also working with our friends at High Threat Concealment who have also developed low-profile working rigs that incorporate more than just a pistol and spare magazine.
They’re also working on several other projects including –
A low profile med pouch
Lights
Knives
And a low profile clothing line in conjunction with Rogue American Apparel
Naturally, they’re going to share their philosophy through training
I’m pretty excited about what I’m seeing here. It’s ambitious, but it didn’t just happen overnight. They’ve been working on this for awhile with each guy bringing his piece to the puzzle and they’ve been refining everything over the last year or so.
Their website isn’t quite ready to go yet but be sure to ‘like’ them on Facebook in order to keep up with their latest news.

Additionally, it can be customized for left or right carry and rounds facing rearward or forward. Black is standard but other colors available on request.
High Threat Concealment Low Profile System
Friday, April 27th, 2012I was recently invited out to C2 Shooting Center in nearby Virginia Beach to check out High Threat Concealment and in particular, their Low Profile System. Right out of the box, I have to say that everything they do is well executed. I’d venture to say that with molded holsters and accessories, it’s either great or it sucks. HTC is definitely on the great side of the scale. It’s not just the quality of their products. They’ve done some things that no on else has.
HTC was founded by James Overton and Adam Garrison who bring a combined background of military, law enforcement and diplomatic protection to develop a line of holsters and accessories. One thing that makes their line different is that the entire kit and caboodle was developed for duty use, but in environments where the gunfighter has to maintain a low profile. This isn’t modified 3-gun gear. For instance, you’ll notice that the pouch grips higher on a magazine or other piece of kit. After all, you don’t want it falling out. On a range it can be embarrassing, in a gunfight; deadly.
The Low Profile System is a modular design consisting of a series of interconnected components that can be tailored to the user’s preference. Once configured, you can thread your belt through the system. HTC has a couple of really cool surprises coming soon that will make it even easier to integrate with a variety of profiles, from full on combat equipment to the lowest of profile close personal protection detail.
The LCS comes standard with 1 HTC Dual Pistol Mag Holder, 2 HTC M4 Mag Holders, 1 HTC Blowout Kit, 1 HTC Gen 2 Radio Holder, and 1 HTC Gen 2 Pistol Holster. However, it can be modified with addition or removal of components. When ordered in its full configuration it is offered at a discount.
One of the coolest things they have developed is the Modular Accessory Panel. It is a platform that is PALS compatible and will also accept HTC’s line of pouches including an innovative cutaway IFAK. Other available pouches include a universal handcuff pouch; a cell phone / camera pouch; a flashlight / admin pouch with flip down ID & badge holder; and a shotgun shell pouch that will hold 8 shells.
Additionally, the Gen 3 Radio Holder is pretty innovative. It holds the radio backward so you don’t inadvertently change the radio’s settings.
It’s important to note that while everything is designed to be used as a system, any component can be used alone or with other pieces in virtually any combination. In fact, a couple of agencies have already adopted individual components. I picked up one of their G21 OWB holsters for my new FDE Gen 4 and it’s a great fit, bot for me and the pistol.
There’s no way to cover this entire system in a single article. But if there’s one take away, it’s this; modularity is key. We insist upon it in a warfighting load, but not in a concealable system, until now. Also, as of right now, wait times are only 3-5 days. But, as their name becomes more well known, I don’t think that will last.
Black is standard but other colors available on request.
