Toy Soldier Workshop - Combat Photo Rig

Details: Category: Vests / Platforms; Created: Monday, 15 February 2010 03:30

I saved this larger item to give a quick break down on the Toy Soldier Workshop. I know many people see the name and just think, you can't be fucking serious why are you giving these commies a chance monkey!? For starters, good things can come out of China and a good example of that is Emdom gear. The other factors are that they are using good genuine materials and putting forth effort into making their own unique designs. When places send me stuff I give it a fair assessment no matter the origin.

Moving onto the actual kit, this chest rig stands out as combat photography stuff tends to be harder to come by.

Toy Soldier Workshop - QuickDraw M4 Pouch

Details: Category: Pouches; Created: Monday, 15 February 2010 03:03

So there are a LOT of mag pouches out there these days, but I thought these were worth showing for something different. The concept is somewhat like a FastMag using soft materials. The sides are made of elastic to keep pressure on the magazine while the insides have a generous amount of non-slip material. The end result is a pretty nice grip.

Toy Soldier Workshop - Mini Drop Pouch

Details: Category: Pouches; Created: Monday, 15 February 2010 01:51

Toy Soldier Workshop brings us another unique pouch. The size and the mounting options turn this pouch into a specialty GP pouch. A good assortment of random small and medium things will fit inside, but one example could be to use it as a small medical pouch. The size is approx 8"L x 4.5"H x 2.5"D of course varying on how much you stuff in there. Construction on this one was overall solid with the main material being 1000D cordura.

Maxpedition Larkspur and Gleneagle Messenger Bags

Details: Category: Packs/Bags; Created: Friday, 13 November 2009 02:46

Messenger bags have been around for a while and have certainly gained popularity for the past decade due to their simple yet diverse carry capability design. Teaming up with EGL (Extreme Gear Labs), Maxpedition now offers some unique variants to cater to the tactical and hard use markets. Currently 2 models are available; the Larkspur and the Gleneagle. Although the Larkspur is labeled as small I think most would consider it a beefy medium and the Gleneagle is labeled Large which it certainly is. Since both bags feature all the same core design features I have put them together for a dual review.

MAXPEDITION - Gear Bag series (Jerobam, Methuselah, Balthazar)

Details: Category: Packs/Bags; Created: Monday, 09 November 2009 01:20

This 3 bag series came about with the concept of simple general purpose shoulder bags. Quality is of course the usual high standards expected from Maxpedition, however pricing is more affordable by keeping extra pockets and compartments minimal. The three sizes covers a good spread of filling user needs so there is pretty much something for everyone. Whether it be holding tactical gear, electronics, paperwork, or whatever, this gear bag series is quite adaptable.

MAXPEDITION - Modular Inserts

Details: Category: Pouches; Created: Sunday, 25 October 2009 21:09

Maxpedition and other tactical gear makers have been making bags with loop velcro panels for a while so finally we have some more options on how to make good use of them. Since the intent is that these panels will generally be in the interior of bags the retention security is low in favor of easier accessibility. Some quick breakdowns:

Maxpedition Duffel Load Out Series: Baron, Imperial, Sovreign

Details: Category: Packs/Bags; Created: Monday, 19 October 2009 19:10

SPECS:
Baron - 22” L x 10” W x 9” H, approx. 1500 cu. in. (PALS 3 rows, 6 channels)
Imperial - 28” L x 13” W x 12” H, approx. 3500 cu. in. (PALS 3 rows, 8 channels)
Sovreign - 32” L x 15” W x 14” H, approx. 5000 cu. in. (PALS 3 rows, 10 channels)

Been a hard user and looking for something that is closer to a heavy duty sack rather than being overly fancy with pockets? Look no further than the Maxpedition Duffel Load Out Series.

MAXPEDITION - 6" x 9" Padded Pouch

Details: Category: Pouches; Created: Saturday, 17 October 2009 05:38

DIMS: 6" wide x 9"+ tall x 3" thick
Frontal loop field: 3" x 4"

This pouch is now around to expand the Maxpedition padded line for those who want something in more of a large GP size. At this size you can get into larger electronics such as hand camcorders. Of course feel free to get crafty and fit whatever items you want inside to have a cushy ride. If attached directly to the body the padding can also make wearing more comfortable for long hauls. The main opening double zippers are done reversed style and work nice and smooth.

OTB Boots - Bushmaster Boot

Details: Category: Footwear; Created: Friday, 28 August 2009 08:02

OTB has been making a good name for themselves making specialized tactical boots. Starting off with water based boots for SEALS, they now offer many primo land variants. One such example I have here is the Bushmaster which is greatly based on the Abyss design.

OTB Boots - Thor TC Boot

Details: Category: Footwear; Created: Friday, 28 August 2009 07:54

Mister Thor Boot here has an interesting design intent which was made specifically with Special Forces in mind. The idea is to have a boot where operators can insert into the area of operations and be covert capable in which the boots appear civilian in nature. The attention to details and heavy duty materials used separate the Thor from typical hiking boots to make them tactical ready.
