We’ve been eagerly awaiting the return of the Mojo Medical Shears to the ITS Store and we’re excited to announce some new changes.
Combat Medical Systems has retooled the Mojo Medical Shears and removed a few of the previous dummy cord attachment points in the handles and colored them coyote brown.
They’re now also made in Germany, a trade compliant country, rather than the prior manufacturer in Pakistan. If you know medical instruments, you’ll know that many high-quality surgical-grade tools come from Germany. [Read More…]
Editor-in-Chief’s Note: ITS contributor Chris Sajnog is a former Navy SEAL and current Director of Training at Center Mass Group.
A few months back my good friends and Fellow Former Frogmen (F3?) over at T3 Gear were kind enough let me try out some of their gear. The gear was free, but I was asked to give them honest feedback on what I liked, and what I didn’t.
It took a few months to put their gear through the paces; gear evaluation takes longer outside of a combat zone. The first piece that I can provide an honest assessment of is the centerpiece of your warrior-wear: the plate carrier.
T3 calls this model the Geronimo Plate Carrier. I’m guessing they named it this as tribute to Operation Geronimo (later changed to Operation Neptune Spear), in which a few of my SEAL brothers paid a little visit to Osama bin Laden. [Read More…]

Today we’ll be looking at a few items from Marz Tactical Gear, which include their Admin Pouch with Chemlight Slots, Tourniquet Pouch and belt-mounted SSE Pouch.
I was first introduced to Marz while checking out their booth at SHOT Show last year. What caught my eye was their out of the box concepts on some fairly vanilla pieces of gear. That’s not meant to discredit any of their work, just to describe traditional admin pouches and dump pouches.
One of the things I really like about Marz is that many of their gear items feature a small pull tab of webbing that quickly releases the pouch, much like we feature in our Discreet Messenger Bag with our Med Insert. It hands-down works and to me is one of the best ways to quickly open a pouch. [Read More…]

We’ve been working for some time on developing a secondary way to seal our popular ETA Trauma Kits that will allow them to fit in most double M4 magazine pouches and we’re stoked to show you what we’ve come up with!
While our standard size kits aren’t going away, starting soon you’ll be able to choose if you want a “slim fit” version or a regular version of either our Basic, Standard or MIL/LE ETA Trauma Kits.
This new “slim fit” version of our kits doesn’t sacrifice any of the lifesaving components you’re used to, it’s simply another option for those that need it. [Read More…]
