Never Forget
We teased that there would be at least one more FirstSpear product coming out for and we are pleased to share it with you. FirstSpear is the most exciting brand launch of the year and it’s cool to see these teasers prior to the formal launch of 60 new products on 14 July, 2011.
The Short Incursion Chest Rig (SICR) was designed for those that don’t use the carbine as their primary weapon or are trying to maintain a low profile. It carries up to 6 x 30 round 5.56 magazines and features PALS webbing to the left and right of the ammo pockets to customize the load to the mission. Currently available for pre-order from SKD Tactical with an expected ship date of 13 July, 2011. The SICR will be offered in Black, Coyote, Ranger Green, Khaki, and MultiCam.
Now here’s the beauty part directly from SKD’s website:
“As a lead-up to FirstSpear’s full product line release, we have been granted special permission to run a one-time 30% promotional discount for this awesome piece of kit. ENTER “SICR30” IN THE DISCOUNT CODE FIELD AT CHECKOUT. This promotion ends on July 14, 2011, after which the SICR will be available for sale at regular pricing.”
SKD has announced a great deal on the recently released Assault Panel Carrier (APC) from Mayflower Research and Consulting. For the next two weeks, SKD will offer the APC for $195 after which the price will rise to $210. As with all Mayflower products, the APC is designed based on real-world experience.
The upper front of the APC contains an integral admin pouch with internal elastic loops to retain pens, pencils, chemlites or similar items. Additionally, the front lower half of the APC has an integrated pouch sized to hold up to three M4 sized magazines. The shoulder pads are 3D mesh for comfort and feature a Velcro routing channel for cable and drinking tubes.
The APC is supplied with Mayflower’s standard PALS compatible cummerbund designed to accept 6″x 6″ hard armor plates or side soft armor. What makes the APC really interesting is that it is also compatible with Mayflower’s suite of modular cummerbunds. The APC is available in two sizes; S/M and L/XL with three cummerbund options. The S/M is available with either a small or medium cummerbund while the L/XL is available with either a medium or large cummerbund. The plate pockets are sized to accommodate stand alone or in-conjunction BALCs/ESAPI or Swimmer cut plates. The S/M APC will fit small, medium and 10″x12″ sized plates. The L/XL APC will fit large and extra-large plates. So, these options give the wearer a great deal of customization in regard to sizing.
Berry compliant and made from 500D Cordura, the APC is available in Black, Coyote, and MultiCam. To order, visit www.skdtac.com. Be sure to check out Military Morons’ review of the APC.

SKD Tactical has just released their first knife collaboration and it’s with Zero Tolerance. Based on the popular 0350, the SKD variant culminates 18 months of effort. One change is that the 0360’s blade is a full 30% lighter than the 0350’s blade even though they both have the same thickness. Combined with the ZT SpeedSafe® system, the lighter blade snaps open all the faster. The S30V stainless steel blade with Tungsten DLC (Diamond Like Carbon) is coated in a non-reflective self-lubricating corrosion resistant finish. This is paired with a textured, matte-black G-10 grip featuring quad mounting system for tip-up, tip-down, left- or right-handed clip carry. Probably the most interesting feature on the 0360.SKD is that a small carbide tip has been added to the butt of the handle for emergency glass-breaking use. While it is a collectible knife featuring a three digit serial number, the price point and features beg for it to be an Every Day Carry option.
The much anticipated PIG Plate Carrier has finally arrived, and SKD Tactical is currently taking pre-orders for the first production run due early spring 2010. Manufactured in the USA for Patrol Incident Gear by Eagle Industries, the PIG PC was conceived with input from law enforcement and military special operations personnel, that culminated in a design that is unlike any other plate carrier on the market today.
The PIG PC features an industry first, the adjustable plate stirrup that keeps the plate at the top of the carrier and centered, regardless of plate size (fits SAPI S-XL). Additionally, lowering the shoulder strap attachment point raises the plate placement on the upper thoracic cavity, an often overlooked achilles heel on most traditional plate carriers. They have also taken steps to answer the common complaint that carriers are uncomfortable by adding continuous padding on the rear carrier and shoulder straps. The rear padding will soon see a debut on a new Eagle pack design as well. Hybrid 500D Cordura and Nylon Pack Cloth construction reduces the weight to a minimum. Additionally, SKD has prepared an Ala Carte options system that allows users to order only the features they need.
SKD Tactical is offering a pre-order discount for a limited number of customers, on a first come first serve basis. For more information, visit www.skdtac.com.
