CTS Burrito
CTS Stomp ADG If you’ll likely never use it, actually moving in it, training with it and it’ll likely sit in your closest or trunk indefinitely. Airsoft stuff may be ok, I wouldn’t go that route though. If you’ll be using you PC and gear, I’d bite the bullet and get real gear. |

See if you can find some surplus USGI molle Flashbang pouches.
Over the last decade, that's what myself and other soldiers have done in the Guard. We don't carry our kit enough to justify the added expense of the fancy quickdraw holder. Easy to hold one tourniquet, maybe more supplies if needed. The fastex buckle makes for quick access, but covers everything up. Here's an example Smith Surplus & Supply - $3 |

A usgi 2 mag pouch will hold an Izzy, combat gauze, gloves and you can rubber band a TQ to the side.
Mu vehicle kit is in an airsoft grade GP MOLLE pouch |

It doesn't NEED to be tear away, but I have an SUV with 2 child seats, so behind the headrest isn't ideal. I do have a flat spot on the back of my center console that would be great with some velcro so it could be reached by any seat. I like the organization of yours. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Makes sense. I was thinking you may have one of those MOLLE set back organizers no, I like them but the damn child seats take up SO much space in the back. Plus the forward facing kiddo would have access to everything and likely try and stab his brother...

I keep an ITS Nylon Zip Bag (website) in one of the bottle pouches on my EDC bag. It's pretty slim and fits a TQ, QuickClot Combat Gauze LE, Israeli bandage, Z-Pak Gauze, pair of micro HYFIN seals, gloves, and some tape. It works really well and is slim enough to tuck into a door pocket if needed.
I've taken to tossing a TQ in my pocket when I'm out and about. I bought several SOFTT-W tourniquets from TacMed solutions several years ago because they lack Velcro and easier to stuff in a pocket than a CAT. I have not tried the newer SOF Tourniquet but it looks pretty much identical to the SOFFT-W. |

So, I needed a way to hold both my TQ and Shears (I use the Ferro Concepts Roll 1 for my IFAK).
I tried to the Beez Combat Systems IFAK BLUNT as it has a spot for your TQ, shears, Marker or decompression needle, and the contents of the IFAK, but it was too big or use with my plate carrier. I am planning on using it for my chest rig set-up I'm doing though. So, I went back to the Ferro Concepts Roll 1 IFAK and still had the problem of where to put my shears and a TQ, because the Roll 1 doesn't have space for those items. I ended up going with the Haley Strategic TQ and Shears (TQS) hanger and it's perfect. It protects the TQ better than those strictly nylon hangers and it holds the shears well in place. No I wear the Ferro Roll 1 on my back and the Haley TQS on my front. The TQS comes in at around $48. |

Have you guys look at the VXV Concepts option? It allows that AXL med insert and will hold a TQ, but I think you'd be unable to put shears with it as well. I don't why medical shears are always like an after thought to IFAKs.

Also, another option that's even cheaper that also works reasonably well is this. You can tighten the bungee to your liking. I actually have two of them. It's an extremely minimalist option. I have found that you have to be careful with tightening the bungee... too lose and it falls out. too tight and you can remove it with one hand. There is a sweet spot that you have to find. The blue force may be better in this respect, but at a higher price.
You can get it on ebay for about $10 or from the company itself

Check out Esstac elastic TQ holders for PC or belts.
Currently, I prefer to use an abdominal pouch for an IFAK for my PC or chest rig. For a low profile / vehicle IFAK, I use a fanny pack. Check out Spiritus Systems $65 SACK or Fanny SACK. For cheaper prices, Krydex makes an airsoft grade abdominal pouch ($22) that works. Consider the Helikon-Tex Possum Waist Pack ($38) or the wider bandicoot version for a fanny pack. The nice part about a vehicle IFAK fanny pack is after you grab it, you have to option to strap it to your body to free up your hands. Also, a fanny pack may work with your belt kit and may be rotated to your front side for comfort when in a vehicle. Considering upgrading your TQ to a M2 Inc. 2" RATCHETING Medical Tourniquet (RMT) instead of the outdated CAT7 or SOFTT-W. You don’t want to bleed out because your buddy unintentionally knocked your windless loose during transport. |

I got 2 these on my kit. They work ridiculously well. Just grip it and rip it. There’s no fnaggling at all. Also current CATs and SOF-T’s don’t get Uv damaged so you can wear em till the cows come home. |

Arbor Arms makes a few that are good.
https://arborarmsusa.com/product-category/medical/ Keep in mind with the hairtie/elastic options: that exposes the body of the TQ to UV. UV exposure to plastic, over time, weakens it. Expect to have to change your TQs out more frequently if you use it and frequently have it on. |

If you just want something "just in case" and aren't going to war, just grab Condor. They'll be fine if you're on a budget. If they're not, 2 minutes with some thread will fix them.
