One if by land, two if by sea. This was the signal to tell Paul Revere which route the British Regulars were using to attack. They came to take away rebel firearms.
He alerted the minutemen during his famous midnight ride.
The Regulars were defeated in Concord. But Lexington was the first battleground.
You are the modern minuteman. This kit is for you.
The Alloy plate, the Testudo carrier. Durable Tools of Liberty used by Free Men across the United States.
The Testudo Gen 2.0 Plate Carrier is distinguished by its cummerbund, which wraps around the lower part of your torso to give you a perfectly comfortable & tight fit- the same way shoelaces make for a better shoe.. It features a fully adjustable cummerbund and shoulder straps, making it more than a “one-size-fits-all” solution. It also has plenty of PALS webbing for attaching your MOLLE-compatible pouches, holsters, and accessories. These carriers are made in the "Slick Side" version. They feature Velcro loop on the front for patches and further customization, while the front admin and kangaroo pockets have webbing rather than loop--ready and able to accommodate module attachments via the MOLLE.
The value of lightweight gear is likely the most understated asset in the armor industry. When you have to carry armor all day, trek in it, work in it, and more, shaving pounds off your kit is a great benefit to your fighting ability when the time comes. The A2 is 5.5 pounds and stops both M80 Ball and Green Tip penetrator rounds. It also is rated to stop 7.62x39 (i.e. AK-47). Not rated for AP rounds.
The Multi-Caliber Rifle Magazine Double Pouch accommodates all common rifle magazines and is capable of accommodating magazines such as 5.56x45 (.223), 7.62x39 AK, or 7.62x51 NATO (.308 Winchester). This particular bundle offers this pouch in its double configuration; this means it can carry up to two magazines in each of the two pouches, sewn together for easy accessibility.
Each pouch of the Multi-Caliber Pistol Magazine Pouches accommodate all common pistol magazines, in single or double stack form, from .22LR to .50AE and everything in between, including 5.7.
The (upgrade option) Trauma Pads are a non-newtonian material that absorbs compressive force to mitigate the blunt impact that otherwise causes secondary injuries after an incoming bullet is stopped.
