D&L
Sports™ AR-15 Tactical Vest |
|
|
|
Some shooters prefer a "go vest" over a simple go bag. Dave Lauck designed the D&L Sports™ tactical vest to provide a higher level of gear capacity than the go bag, yet retain the speed and practicality that emergency responders need. The vest features side adjustment straps which allow operators to preset the overall size of the vest to go over their torso size and common gear load. This allows responders to throw it on and go, in emergency situations. The vest is not bullet resistant, but can be adjusted to fit over common concealable body armor. |
|
This vest features six cells on the front of the vest capable of holding six extreme duty AR-15 magazines with pull rings, and three more cells capable of holding six single stack pistol mags, or three double stack pistol mags. |
|
Also on the front of the vest are two utility breast pockets which expand to 1" in thickness, perfect for small radio, GPS, ear/eye protection, etc. Inside the breast area of the vest are a map pocket on the right, and holster on the left. The internal holster is well suited to right-handed cross draw and carrying a full to mid-sized auto pistol, like the 1911. |

There are four D rings on the vest. Two in the collar bone areas, and two just behind the shoulders. The two on the front are generally used for radio mic and Camelbak hose holders. The two on the rear are used to suspend a Camelbak pouch. |
|
The back of the vest features a horizontal pocket suitable for an emergency sectional knock out rod. It expands to one inch in thickness so other expected use items can also be carried. |
The two small of the back vertical pockets expand to 2" in thickness so more expected use items can be carried, medical gear, food, batteries, etc. |
The front and rear of the vest both have tie down capabilities to the belt line. Unit identification patches can also be added to front and rear of the vest. |
The two lower front corners, and two lower rear corners feature sections of Mollé type webbing to allow attaching other needed pouches. |

Warning |
|
The safety selector of your AR-15/M16 style rifle/carbine must be properly fitted with other components in the trigger system to mechanically block the components of the trigger group in a properly engaged position when the selector is "on safe". (Qualified gunsmith activity required) Moving the selector to the "fire" position, intentionally or not, will obviously allow the trigger to move to the rear, the hammer to fall, and the firearm to discharge. This is of critical importance to all involved, especially to those operating with any type of sling system. Do not drop any firearm to a slung position in a careless manner. Always follow all firearm safety rules. Control your muzzle in a safe direction at all times. Do not cover your own body areas, or those of others. In the event of dropping an "on safe" firearm to a slung position, there is still the possibility of the mechanical safety being pushed to the off position, the trigger being moved to the rear, and the firearm discharging. This is especially true then you are wearing other equipment in conjunction with your carbine. Do not place loaded firearms in carry cases or the same dangerous problem may occur. |
|
High volume shooters, especially in high heat environments must remember that the chamber can become super heated after a volume of fire. Leaving a live cartridge in a super heated chamber may cause the firearm to "cook off" or discharge unexpectedly, with the safety selector in any position. Clear the chamber and allow the gun to cool. If you are operating in a dangerous environment that requires near instant firearm readiness, lock the bolt to the rear with a loaded magazine locked into the magazine well while you allow the firearm/chamber to cool. If the firearm becomes needed immediately, you can simply release the bolt to chamber a round and resume firing. |
