PETAC GEAR Tactical Belt Medical Pouch Compact Admin Pouch EMT First Aid Pouch IFAK Utility Pouch Trauma Kit Organizer Tourniquet Holder BK

If you truly search for belt mounted first aid, you won't find many out there. Certainly some of the molle platforms you could place on your belt, but this one is actually made for it. As shown in the description, it can be used for different belt sizes. Plenty of room for gear as well. The only complaint I have is it's overall footprint is a little big, not much, just wish it was about an inch or two shorter to be more low profile. I was looking for something when not wearing battle belt, but still needing holster, spare mags, and first aid. Satisfied with my purchase, and someone that is tall will likely have no complaints. At 5'9", it's just a tad too "tall" on my lower back. But the product itself is very well laid out and constructed.

I own the Trex Arms Med1 Pouch and now this. I am building a belt in black and didn’t want to pay $50+ shipped for the Trex Arms version. The build quality on these seems identical to one another. The material thickness, stitch quality, and appearance are indistinguishable. If the tags both said Trex or Petac, you wouldn’t be able to tell them apart. I’m all for supporting small companies, but I don’t see what makes the Trex version cost 100% more. Buy the Petac if you want this style of IFAK.

The pouch itself is fine and the mounting options are fine but putting a legit NAR tourniquet into the straps on the bottom is almost impossible. Removing it may be easier but it doesn’t do that job well. However, the TQ fits inside the pouch with plenty of space.

I have two IFAK kits in this form factor, this PETAC and a competing model. The competitor is larger in all three dimensions, the internal 'caddy' is also larger. While that may seem great, it's just too big to wear on a belt. This is small enough to wear in any position, including at 3 or 9 o'clock around the smallest radius arcs on my waist and be comfortable. The competitor is more suited for a full on trauma kit and attaching to a bag (though it also is made for a belt, and has no MOLLE components). The only thing the competitor has going for it is the 'caddy' Velcroes in place rather than floating free, as with the PETAC.The PETAC's lower elastic straps are just a little small and make it incredibly difficult to fit a SOF-TT tq in; emergency removal will take a bit of mental effort to slow down and exercise fine motor skills in extracting the tq (the competitor is opposite, strap loops are too wide, tq is likely to be lost).This is a great IFAK pouch. It's not made to contain everything you want to carry in a full kit. Full kits are great, but unless you carry an entire bag with you daily or during your outdoor activities they're useless. This can be with you at all times, slim and out of the way, which makes it far more valuable. Load it up with enough to get you back to your car in one piece, sort out anything worse there.

I was shopping around not for an IFAK, but for a small pouch I can use for medications on wilderness EMS or Search and Rescue calls. This pouch is sized just right for that, and has loop sections lining the inside. It makes securing vials of medications, needles, syringes etc. easy and secure. The outer loop section attaches securely to the back of my radio chest harness for positive control over the controlled substances, as well as providing some thermoregulation during winter.I haven’t used it extensively yet so I can’t comment on durability, but it seems well-made and beefy enough to not need kid gloves.
