One of the last videos from Airsoft GI Josh as he leaves company for other endeavors... "Here at Airsoft GI, we try our best to stay current with the newest and greatest in the tactical gear world. Recently, Josh contacted High Ground Gear and they sent him some stuff to look over and review for free. Needless to say, Josh was impressed with not only the Plate Carrier, but the Ring Sling and the Chest Rig.

Eric goes over the High Ground Gear Plate Carrier in Multicam pattern... "Material-wise, the Plate Carrier is made from 500D Cordura and weights in at 2.5 lbs. We did our testing with the Team Wendy Training Plates, which weight in at 5 lbs each. After a few hours of use, I started to feel the weight of the plates.  I would like to see the shoulder straps attaching at more of an angle rather than straight up and down. I think changing that angle will help with shoulder fatigue."

Soldier Systems did us a service again and uploaded the 2013 Product Catalog from High Ground Gear. In case you're not familiar with this company, which we doubt you are, they are a US-based company with some of the well-received tactical gear products such as packs, rigs, pouches, and other gear accessories. Their Modular Packs are particularly interesting to us

Here's The Gear Locker's Eric giving a review on the High Ground Gear Ring Sling... "At SHOT Show this year, I wanted to check out the Plate Carrier from High Ground Gear in person and when I was at their booth, I noticed this very interesting sling on display.  This sling was their Ring Sling.  After speaking with Mike and exchanging business cards, I went on my way to see what else there was at SHOT.  To my surprise, a Ring Sling showed up in the mail a few months later for TGL to review.

When you think that dump pouches have reached their pinnacle of design here comes High Ground Gear making their own take on it and added MOLLE loops for more configuration. It costs US$49.95 at their website... "The uniquely designed & slightly tapered dump pouch design keeps mags upright after being dropped inside, so you can re-access half-spent mags faster.
