Sons of Liberty Patch from ITS Tactical

Tuesday, February 5th, 2013

Sons of Liberty

The Sons of Liberty were influential in orchestrating effective resistance movements against British rule in colonial America on the eve of the Revolution, primarily against what they perceived as unfair taxation and financial limitations imposed upon them. The Sons of Liberty effectively undermined British rule, paving the way to America’s independence.

In 1767 the Sons of Liberty adopted a flag that has often been referred to as the rebellious stripes flag, which features nine vertical stripes (five red and four white.) These nine stripes have been said to represent the Loyal Nine, a clandestine political group that inflamed public opinion of British law and predated the Sons of Liberty.

A seminal act and lasting legacy of the Sons of Liberty to the history of the American Revolution, was the December 16, 1773 orchestrating of the Boston Tea Party. Some might point out that the echo from the Sons of Liberty can be heard today, as our rights are being encroached upon and our Constitution attacked. Not a flag of distress or of war, but one of defiance, one that was used in the face of such tyranny.

The ITS Tactical Sons of Liberty Flag PVC Morale Patch measures 2″ x 1″ and features hook velcro on the back.

ITS Tactical Releases New Tallboy ETA Trauma Kit

Saturday, January 5th, 2013

ITS ETA Trauma Kit Pouch - Tallboy 01

The Tallboy ETA Trauma Kit and Pouch are the newest additions to the ITS Medical line up and have been in development for over a year with Haley Strategic and Zulu Nylon Gear. Taking the principles of their proven ETA Trauma Kit Pouch, they refined a few features and developed an additional horizontal mounting method.

ITS ETA Trauma Kit Pouch - Fatboy 01

The original ETA Trauma Kit Pouches, now dubbed the “Fatboy” share the refined sewn and color-matched webbing pull handle with removable red Velcro One-Wrap to denote medical components. With a simple pull on the handle, the pouch quickly filets open to provide immediate access to your medical components without delay.

The Tallboy ETA Trauma Kit Pouch moves from the wider three column PALS/MOLLE mounting of the Fatboy to a slim two-column mount, taking up no more real estate than a double mag pouch.

They’ve also re-packed their kits to fit in the new Tallboy configuration and you now have the option of ordering Fatboy or Tallboy Trauma Kits. While the new Tallboy vacuum sealed kits will fit in most double mag pouches, they highly recommend a dedicated pouch like the Tallboy ETA Trauma Kit Pouch, or ensuring a proper visual indicator for medical equipment is affixed.

Along those lines, all of the ETA Trauma Kit Pouches, both Fatboy and Tallboy, now come with a Med PVC Patch included. With the new Tallboy pouches, they’ve also included extra short MALICE clips in addition to the set of tall clips.

This ensures you can mount the new Tallboy pouch in any configuration you need to, both horizontally or vertically. MOLLE/PALS aside, you can also thread the short MALICE Clips in a horizontal configuration to easily affix the Tallboy pouch to a standard belt. A battle belt can be used for proper MOLLE/PALS mounting, but isn’t required.

Skeletonized Bottle Holder from ITS Tactical Now Available

Friday, November 16th, 2012

If you use Liberty Bottleworks bottles or other, similar bottles then you know that there isn’t currently a good way to carry them let alone something that is adaptable to a wide variety of belts and platforms. That is, until now.

20121116-001634.jpg

First off, it’s Made in America. Second, it’s received a slight name change from the original. You see, the new Skeletonized Bottle Holder began its life as the Modular Skeletonized Container Sling. Designed and manufactured by ITS Tactical and Zulu Nylon Gear, we initially mentioned it during Summer OR when it was initially debuted, but now it’s available for purchase.

It incorporates a lightweight minimalist (2.7 oz!) design that features true one-handed operation, full adjustment to handle any container size and mounting to either MOLLE/PALS, or a standard belt.

The Skeletonized Bottle Holder features double-layer webbing as well as a HDPE stiffener for structure and support. They’ve also created a textured pull-tab for a non-slip grip with adjustable shock cord retention to facilitate one-handed container deployment and accommodate any bottle neck size.

The Skeletonized Bottle Holder features a fully-adjustable system in both width and height that can handle multiple container styles and diameters. Using the included PALS attachment system, it can be mounted virtually anywhere, including most any belt size with a simple configuration of the mounting strap.

A short list of compatible bottle designs include Liberty Bottles (both 32 oz and 20 oz), Nalgenes, Klean Kanteens, GI Canteens, Guinness Cans and even plastic water bottles. Available in MultiCam, Coyote Brown and Black.

Shameless

Tuesday, November 6th, 2012

Thanks to a mutual friend with ITS Tactical, we just found out that South Florida UAV manufacturer, United Drones is using the ITS Tactical logo on one of its products. See below.

What do you think? In our opinion, ITS has worked hard to establish that icon as a source of recognition. Its use by United Drones is uncool. ITS Tactical has asked them to stop, to no avail. Hopefully, this next round of legal pressure will get United Drones to stop.

Thanks BH

ETA Trauma Kit (INERT) from ITS Tactical

Wednesday, October 17th, 2012

ITS Tactical listened to the folks using their excellent ETA Trauma Kit and developed a training version. It is critical to train with your equipment but it’s expensive to expend trauma kit after trauma kit. The INERT version provides a low-cost option for regular training. They put some thought into this one.

20121016-140629.jpg

ITS provides a great description of the product –

The components you’ll find in the inert kit are all the same items you’re used to seeing in our kits, with the exception of the Combat Gauze Inert Moulage Trainer. This blue packaged Combat Gauze is for simulated training only and not for medical use. It’s the same z-folded Combat Gauze in our ETA Trauma Kits, but it lacks the hemostatic agent necessary to stop real bleeding. The inert Combat Gauze also features a resealable closure, so you can repack it and train with it again.

With these Inert ETA Trauma Kits, there also may be expired components included. It’s important that this kit is not used to “refill” another of our ETA Trauma Kits, as this inert kit was designed with the sole purpose being used in a dedicated training environment. Along with the bright blue tell-tale pack of inert combat gauze, we’ve also stamped our insert card in blue with “INERT.” Again, this kit is for training ONLY!

The reason we’ve chosen to include an inert version of every component from our ETA Trauma Kits, is to ensure you’re training with the identical items you’ll be using in a real life situation. In the event you have to use an ETA Trauma Kit, you don’t want it being the first time you’ve ever had exposure to the components. Train like you fight.

20121016-142106.jpg

Notice they talked about the inert version of the combat gauze. This is what it looks like.

20121016-140744.jpg
Here’s the Entire Contents List

QuikClot Combat Gauze LE Inert Moulage Trainer (1)
HALO Chest Seal – INERT (2)
MojoDart Decompression Needle – INERT (1)
Naso Airway Adj. 28fr w/ Surgilube – INERT (1)
Israeli Bandage – INERT (1 – 4?)
Ace Bandage – INERT (1 – 4?)
Z-Pak Gauze – INERT (1)
Combat Casualty Card (1)
Nitrile Gloves (1 Pair)
Pencil (1)
Contents List w/ TCCC Care Under Fire Instructions (1)

A you can see, its everything in their standard ETA but intended specifically for training. Now, there’s no reason to pull out a trauma kit and have to learn how to use when it’s needed most. Like they said, “Train Like You’ll Fight.” Amen.

Modular Skeletonized Container Sling Makes OR Debut

Thursday, August 2nd, 2012

Making its debut today at the Outdoor Retailer Summer Market is the Modular Skeletonized Container Sling (MSCS), a new collaborative project between ITS Tactical, Zulu Nylon Gear and Liberty Bottleworks.

Designed and manufactured by ITS Tactical and Zulu Nylon Gear right here in America, the MSCS represents a fresh new approach to a bottle carrier. Their goal was to break the mold of current bottle carrier designs that utilize a pouch-like design, adding unnecessary weight and bulk. They’ve certainly succeeded.

Featuring a lightweight skeletonized design made from HDPE stiffened double-layer webbing, textured pull-tab for a non-slip grip and shock cord retention to allow one-handed container deployment, the MSCS is fully adjustable to fit multiple container styles and diameters. It can also be mounted via MOLLE/PALS and adapted to accommodate any belt size.

I am very happy to see this project come to fruition as I have several Liberty Bottles and, other than bottle sleeves on packs, there is no way to carry them efficiently, until now.

Stay tuned for ordering info.

Billy Cho’s War Belt Configuration

Sunday, July 29th, 2012

Billy Cho of Rifle Dynamics goes over his war belt in this video. He’s a big fan of High Speed Gear’s kit and uses it as the basis for most of what he has going on. This includes Taco mag pouches, belt and pad, as well as a dump pouch. He also uses a G-Code holster with a Rapid Transition Interface wheel. Additionally, he has included a Leatherman MUT and an ITS Tactical ETA Trauma Kit Pouch. It’s a great set up for his needs and it’s simple, yet functional.
