EMDOM USA/MM TNT (Tactical/Non-Tactical) Bag
October 20thI’m proud to introduce my latest collaboration with EMDOM USA, the TNT (Tactical/Non-Tactical) Bag. This project started back in mid 2007, when I expressed my desire to Ken at EMDOM to design a bag that is practical enough for EDC (Every Day Carry) use, doesn’t look overtly ‘tactical’, but still has some gun-friendly/tactical features concealed internally. I have seen most of the ‘messenger/Spartan/tactical man-purse, patrol, tactical briefcase, bail-out bags’ out there; and there are some very good designs to fit a variety of needs. But, none of them were matched exactly what I had in mind, so I set about thinking and sketching up a design.
EMDOM USA/MM Gunslinger Sling
August 3rdEver since EMDOM USA and I introduced the URS (Universal Rig Strap) Sling two years ago, I’ve had numerous requests and inquiries from URS Sling users for a single or two-point sling that was compatible with the connector that the URS uses. The connector attaches to the receiver end plate, or to a swivel at the rear of the stock, and uses a female SR buckle. As far as I know, it’s not compatible with any other sling. URS users wanted a sling that could be attached to the URS connector for stand-alone use, when not using a rig. In response to those requests, EMDOM is now offering a sling that URS users can use without having to remove the connector from their weapon. It’s called the Gunslinger Sling.
EMDOM-MM Battle Suspenders
June 18thIntroducing the EMDOM USA/MM Battle Suspenders - a project that has been in work and development since the end of 2006. I’m always looking to improve upon existing designs, and while I was collaborating with EMDOM on other projects I saw elements of EMDOM’s other products that I felt could be used to create a pretty good suspender, so Ken and I put our heads together on this one as well. The goal of this project was to make the best, most comfortable set of suspenders that we could, for pistol/combat belts that would be comfortable and low profile for under armour. I wanted more comfort than webbing-only suspenders while remaining less bulky than a fully padded harnesses/LBE. I also wanted it to be comfortable with heavier loads, simplify the attachment method, use lower profile hardware and eliminate the possibility of the shoulder straps slipping off the shoulders.
Emdom-MM AK/M4 CQB Mag Pouch
January 13thHere’s another collaboration with EMDOM I’m happy to be associated with. The growing number of AK shooters out there (including me) and the lack of good AK mag pouches prompted the Emdom-MM AK/M4 CQB Mag Pouch. It’s designed to fit all 30-round AK-type magazines - AK47 (7.62mm) and 74 (5.45mm). A plus to the Emdom-MM CQB AK/M4 mag pouch is that it will also do double duty and work with M4 30-round magazines.
EMDOM USA H2O Hydration Carrier
October 10thI’ve been using a prototype of EMDOM’s H2O Hydration Carrier since mid 2005, but it was put on the back burner to make way for other products until now. Some of you with sharp eyes caught pictures of it attached to my STRIKE rig in my KP Industries Knee Pad writeup back in 2005, and I’ve been getting emails inquiring about it ever since.
EMDOM USA .308 Double mag pouch
June 12th308 Double Mag Pouch - EMDOM’s 308 Double Mag Pouch is the .308 version of their excellent CQB M4 Double Mag pouch shown below. Each will hold two .308 20-round magazines for most weapons like the FAL, M1A/M14, SR25 etc. I’ve not had a chance to try it with G3/HK91 mags. The pouch is designed for easy access to mags without sacrificing security/retention. The height of the pouch leaves 2″ of the top of the mag to grab onto. No longer do you have to use spacers at the bottom or reach down inside pouches designed for longer magazines. The lid is adjustable and removable, and can be tucked behind the retention strap for ‘open top’ use.
The 1″ elastic provides retention when the pouch is open. Each pouch takes up two columns of PALS webbing - I’ve illustrated three of them mounted to my STRIKE rig.
MM/EMDOM 3o2 Pistol mag pouch
April 12thMM 3o2 Pistol Mag Pouch - Ever since we came out with the 6o4 pouch below, a number of people have asked for a ‘half-size’ version - with only one compartment. Some don’t need to carry 6 or 4 mags, only 3 or 2, and wanted to utilize a single columns of PALS. So, to accomodate those requests, here it is.
The 3o2 (Three-oh-Two) pouch is essentially single-column 6o4 pouch. It works exactly the same as the 6o4 - it can hold three single stack .45 mags or two double stacks mags. It has the same internal elastic divider, which has now been shielded from wear by the addition of a piece of nylon. The lid now has a piece of hook velcro to hold the lid in the folded position when the tab is tucked behind the retention loop. These changes were also made to the 6o4 in mid-production. The lid is adjustable and removable.
EMDOM USA Recon Waist Pack
August 2ndRecon Waist Pack - I’ve been using a prototype version of this waist pack since late last year. In fact, some of you noticed it sneak into some of my photos (see below) in other reviews and inquired about it. Well, it’s finally in production. Sure, there are other waist packs out there, but in true EMDOM fashion, the Recon Waist pack has a few more features/details that set it apart from the rest.
Overall profile is of a wedge from the side, and upside-down trapezoid from the front, instead of a rectangular blocky shape. Worn in front, in the back or on the side, it’s a relatively streamlined shape. It’s more roomy than it looks. The pack body is 10″ at its widest point at the top, and 7″ tall. It’s 4″ deep at it’s deepest point at the top of the wedge. The zippered access main compartment has an elastic top mesh pocket on the inside for organization, and 550 cord loops for dummy cords. On the back of the pack is another zippered compartment, about 7″ x 3.5″ in size. This is useful for flatter items. On the front of the body is an external pouch, approx 6″ x 4″ x 1.5″ in size. Both the main compartment and front pouch have drain grommets at the bottom. All zippers have 550-cord pulls.
