In the meantime you can get a ferro wingthing and mount the smoke grenade pouch of your choice on it. I think agilite and other companies make similar products to the wingthing but I don't have any hands on experience with them.
A couple tips I have... 1) If your carrier has molle on the back, I am a huge fan of running a remote cable for my radio antenna. Antennas run off of line of sight and running my antenna off my back gets the antenna a little higher and doesn't impede the movement of my one arm. 2) I am a huge fan of running my IFAK from a dangler pouch off of my rear plate bag. The catch is that the IFAK has to have an ambi draw mechanism like the new Agilite med pouch or the Ferro Concepts Roll med pouch. It is still very accessible but out of the way and I find it adds lumbar support while sitting.
i really appreciate how you guys explain everything in a quick simple way, so many guys try to use big words and sound like some kind of war prophet, thanks
Lev, I just want to let you know that smoke grenades do not provide cover. Smoke grenades provide concealment. Cover = means bullets CANNOT penetrate where you are hiding. (trees, rocks, buildings, vehicles, etc.) Concealment = means bullets CAN penetrate where you are hiding. (bushes, smoke, etc.)
This has nothing to do with you professionals, but as a civilian that enjoys the modern martial art and getting out in the boonies with buddies for training, "keep it one layer" is some of the only advice I 100% know I can give somebody just getting set up. Lots of folks want to load up with stuff that will be moved the next time they use their kit, and would be absolutely horrible in hot situations. Spreading things around so you're somewhat slick and can get as low as possible really beats getting hung up on every snaggy obstacle (and equipment etc) and most importantly hitting the dirt only to lay on top of a pile of gear. Buddy pack strategy is my other favorite. Especially with small attached packs that hold your bladder and some goodies - everybody in your squad should have a somewhat uniform set of items in there. A couple spare mags, an extra loose dressing, energy gel, light sticks, little spare battery holder - whatever it is, there should be a compact assortment of stuff everyone will need. Team contract settles what it is and where it goes. Man I'm grateful I'll never actually have to use this stuff - I'm bad at it, but it's challenging and compelling.
Been wearing kit since 06. My biggest thing I noticed about new operators is too much gear. They want to wear a ton of cool stuff but quickly become too heavy. Be fast and light. Let your training dictate movement and control your battle spaces.
Everyone Shout Levi, on these tips and tricks… very informative. I would like to add one tip, if your carrying heavy plates or a lot of added weight make sure carrier is properly secured and tightly secured but not so tight you can’t breathe this will reduce the tension on your shoulders during hard use.
Minor gripe, I wish the K19 had the number sizing system on its straps too, I think that should be a standard for all PCs imo. And if u make the grenade pouch I hope it can fit either smoke or flashbangers 👍
Smoke pouch is an awesome idea! Just maybe have some sort of a latch that can be pulled to pull it out or have some kind of band in the bottom so it won't slip out💪🏻
Is a great advice, also the operator will carry according to the mission, primary equipment and possible secondary equipment, Main supply you carry should be, Ammo, water and food.
Hi guys, your products are great, thank you and keep it up, I would like to see a modular adapter for attaching Velcro to the height and width of the AMAP/Micro MAP, so that we can, for example, attach one adapter with full equipment for a medic and other adapters for combat equipment, and simply put on the bag each time what is needed according to the mission , it can save the time of moving the shoe from mission to mission (you actually have a similar product that is intended for a vest in the front, I'm talking about attaching it to the bag in the back and it will be higher)
From my point of view, if I should choose one item that is not already in the Agilite production list, that should be a collapsible dump pouch. As a mention, with this new item, my Magnetix belt will be complete. All my combat/war setup (PC and belt) are Agilite in this very moment but the dump puch that I have is made by one of your competitor. :)From my point of view, if I should choose one item that is not already in the Agilite production list, that should be a collapsible dump pouch.
cumber bund is derived from Farsi language. Cumber( کمر kamar) in Farsi means waist and bund ( بند band ) in Farsi means bounded or fixed (so fixed or bounded to waist). This word is also used for Belt.
If you get QD cummerbund and need another pouch for some reason (I hate that on CIRAS.) Just use inner pouches with velcro to get addtional pouches bothj sides always cuz its on front pc and use QD on both sides.
you guys should design a plate carrier backpack that has a QD so that you can get to it with out taking off the vest but also a easy way to put it back on with out taking it off, similar to your battle belt design
Defense mechanisms make great cummerbunds that solve the problem of the loss of molle. I use them with my K19 and it’s great ! Agilite should take a look at it for their next Cummerbund 😀 (Also Shaw concepts use the same system but with a different rear attachment system)
Great Hacks Hevre, You know the say: Equipment is never enough, Just Designs and Better Fabrics and Quality changes with new Ideas which comes Under Fire situations. I like your Gear and must have some. Why you dont do Video about Combat Uniforms of IDF Tier Forces? Smoke Grande Pouch is always good...
I improvised a similar smoke grenade hanger for my K19, in Gaza as well. I would suggest that you add an elastic band on top, so it wont slip out from a hit/bump on the bottom. The elastic band can be mpved easily and take the grenade out. Usuallywith smoke grenadesyou have that extra 1 sec to do so (vs frag). If you do use this hack, maybe kit my team with them ;)
Like the idea of a the smoke hanger pouch, if you do put it in to production is there any chance you can add slots in the Velcro so you can thread the Cumber band QD mounts you find on the kzero through ?
Smoke holder initiated...i say yes. maybe two styles. one without flap. think urban/cqb. one with flap, think airborne/amphib ops. drain hole or slot bottom. snap or buckle fasteners. small web loop for dummy cording item not of pyrotechnic design close to opening.
Any idea on when you guys may do just a chest rig setup? Would love to have a chest rig with a pincer placard and a few pouches for at the home rapid deployment to where I don't have to throw on my plate carrier but still have the extra mags etc. Just in case a poor soul wants to invite himself into my home! Any input on this would be great thanks!
I have a question. Isn't it as long as the belly-abdominal part of these plate carriers? Yes, its current state is to protect vital organs. But abdominal injuries are also quite dangerous injuries. Therefore, the abdominal part is left exposed. what is the reason of this? thanks.
The smoke grenade pouch is great! Please launch this commercially.
I 2nd this motion ✊🏽
But we need smoke grenades
There's a really similar product by helikon tex and it works great for tqs also
Other punches are external only this would be so amazing
Definitely manufacture that smoke hanger pouch.
Would be huge and get it off the belt or taking up space on the outside of the cummerbund
In the meantime you can get a ferro wingthing and mount the smoke grenade pouch of your choice on it. I think agilite and other companies make similar products to the wingthing but I don't have any hands on experience with them.

im defiantly going to run the one side QD now, it just blew my mind how ive never thought about that.
Lev, I just want to let you know that smoke grenades do not provide cover.
Smoke grenades provide concealment.
Cover = means bullets CANNOT penetrate where you are hiding. (trees, rocks, buildings, vehicles, etc.)
Concealment = means bullets CAN penetrate where you are hiding. (bushes, smoke, etc.)

Useful tips and tricks for a plate carrier. You should definitely make a grenade pouch but make it adjustable for different grenade sizes.🤙
Definitely manufacture that smoke hanger pouch but I prefer dimension to accommodate and flash-bang too.
''Sneak some of the stuff in your buddys pack''. Great advice. Especially on the most grumpy guy in the squad 🤣
Love the smoke grenade idea!!
The smoke pouch is a good looking bit of kit.
I like that its elasticated so could be unitised for other uses if needs be.
Just have to point out it's the C7 vertebrae, T7 is lower.
Great tips, great gear, great work 👍
Love how lightweight the K-zero is and how easy it is to customize. Will recommend to anyone no matter what operations you run
Been wearing kit since 06. My biggest thing I noticed about new operators is too much gear. They want to wear a ton of cool stuff but quickly become too heavy. Be fast and light. Let your training dictate movement and control your battle spaces.
Definitely make that smoke pouch. The market for support grenade pouches is way too small and you guys make awesome stuff
Love the smoke grenade pouch!
Never thought about the weak side still using Velcro to use that space.
Great tips -- and it's a yes from me on the smoke grenade pouch (and flash bang would be nice).
Everyone Shout Levi, on these tips and tricks… very informative. I would like to add one tip, if your carrying heavy plates or a lot of added weight make sure carrier is properly secured and tightly secured but not so tight you can’t breathe this will reduce the tension on your shoulders during hard use.
Yes to the smoke pouch. I’ve had to put a luminae one on my k19 cummerbund.
Minor gripe, I wish the K19 had the number sizing system on its straps too, I think that should be a standard for all PCs imo. And if u make the grenade pouch I hope it can fit either smoke or flashbangers 👍
Great tips and plate carrier education Lev! Straight from the battle field!
You guys make the best gear I’ve ever got my hands on!
Thanks for tips. For the prototype make it elastic with a retention systepe at the bottom ! 👌
Another very informative vid! Thanks for sharing your experiences. Oh, and release that smoke grenade pouch!
Great tips and yes definitely on the smoke grenade pouch!
I say let’s make the smoke grenade pouch!!! Also the QD and Velcro combo is something I’ll be testing out!
Smoke pouch is an awesome idea! Just maybe have some sort of a latch that can be pulled to pull it out or have some kind of band in the bottom so it won't slip out💪🏻

Thanks for the tips Lev! Yes, definitely manufacture a smoke grenade pouch🤙
Always great info/reminders from Agilite!
I’ve been using pouches for a water bottle up front. The smoke grenade pouch is a great idea.
Smoke cover does not make, Concealment it is. - Yoda
YES...please make that smoke carrier...possibly with an adjustment strap other than the stretch fabric.
Yes please make the smoke grenade pouch and one for flash bangs/distraction devices.
Love the QD hack on just one side!! Gotta test it out!
Great knowledge and tricks as always! Thanks, and yes to the hanger!
That smoke grenade pouch looks like it’d be a great kit item. Either as a smoke grenade pouch (duh) or as a quick access TQ holder.
אני אוהב אתכם!
תודה לכם על העבודה המדהימה שאתם עושים

Please make the smoke grenade pouches. Definitely will compliment my MC & Tan K-Zero kits.
From my point of view, if I should choose one item that is not already in the Agilite production list, that should be a collapsible dump pouch.
As a mention, with this new item, my Magnetix belt will be complete. All my combat/war setup (PC and belt) are Agilite in this very moment but the dump puch that I have is made by one of your competitor. :)From my point of view, if I should choose one item that is not already in the Agilite production list, that should be a collapsible dump pouch.
I'd love for you to make the smoke hanger pouch, definitely very much needed.
Great content as always!!! Need this smoke grenade, asap!
That's a firm YES on the smoke holder!
cumber bund is derived from Farsi language. Cumber( کمر kamar) in Farsi means waist and bund ( بند band ) in Farsi means bounded or fixed (so fixed or bounded to waist). This word is also used for Belt.
I like the grenade carrier idea
Make a video on the differences between the k zero and k19 and what each one is for
They did
I got you
th-cam.com/video/hla8y062y94/w-d-xo.html&pp=ygUOazE5IHZzIGsgemVybyA%3D
has been made like 1 year ago, check it out, its on this channel somewhere
Yall are awesome! love
Would like to see a adaptive radio pouch, for both military and civilian radios.
Mount an additional Tourniquet to the stock of your Longrifle, so you always have verry easy acces.
Yes, we need a good smoke/flashbang pouch.
Love your gear, and videos. Semper Fi Guys
one side QD is a very good one!
If you get QD cummerbund and need another pouch for some reason (I hate that on CIRAS.) Just use inner pouches with velcro to get addtional pouches bothj sides always cuz its on front pc and use QD on both sides.
Please make the Smoke Grenade Hangar! Thanks :D
I wouldn’t mind seeing a Agilite Grenade Pouch in general
@@zwelch1662 Agreed a Grenade Pouch in general would be nice to see
Got one k19, awesome product, hight level 👌🏼
smoke hanger is a good idea, only issue is the location id put it i run a mag. I'm sure i could find a spot though :)
Definitely turn out the smoke pouch for commercial production.
you guys should design a plate carrier backpack that has a QD so that you can get to it with out taking off the vest but also a easy way to put it back on with out taking it off, similar to your battle belt design
Putting the mag that’s on the side cummerbund upside down, held with a retention tab, for a quicker and easier draw
Cringe
Super cringe
Defense mechanisms make great cummerbunds that solve the problem of the loss of molle. I use them with my K19 and it’s great !
Agilite should take a look at it for their next Cummerbund 😀
(Also Shaw concepts use the same system but with a different rear attachment system)
Nice hacks! And that smoke grenade pouch is just the missing piece of gear that my unit needs. Build it and sell it Lev!
I’d love to try the smoke grenade. It’d be great for flashbangs
Yes, please make the smoke pouch!!
Smoke grenade hanger would be dope
Amazing video as usual!
Yes 1000% to smoke grenade pouch. I’ve been using a double mag pouch as a make shift and it works but isn’t great.
Great Hacks Hevre, You know the say: Equipment is never enough, Just Designs and Better Fabrics and Quality changes with new Ideas which comes Under Fire situations. I like your Gear and must have some. Why you dont do Video about Combat Uniforms of IDF Tier Forces? Smoke Grande Pouch is always good...
Definitely produce the smoke pouch!
Definitely produce the simple "smoke" pouch!
I improvised a similar smoke grenade hanger for my K19, in Gaza as well. I would suggest that you add an elastic band on top, so it wont slip out from a hit/bump on the bottom.
The elastic band can be mpved easily and take the grenade out.
Usuallywith smoke grenadesyou have that extra 1 sec to do so (vs frag).
If you do use this hack, maybe kit my team with them ;)
A Molle side wing would be sick
Yes on the smoke grenade carrier please.
Yes. We want the smoke grenade pouch.
Yes on the smoke grenade holder please!
Yes, please make something for Smoke Grenades and Stun Grenades
"All stations standby - Smoke pouch needs to happen: now - now - now" 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Make the smoke grenade pouch hanger into an actual product !!!!
I currently operate with the k19, but I would really like to get my hands on the KZero.
When we could have available to buy the molle panel for the pincer placard?
Would like to see the smoke grenade pouch!
Like the idea of a the smoke hanger pouch, if you do put it in to production is there any chance you can add slots in the Velcro so you can thread the Cumber band QD mounts you find on the kzero through ?
Smoke provides concealment, not cover. Also smoke hanger is a dope idea #testteam5
Smoke holder initiated...i say yes. maybe two styles. one without flap. think urban/cqb. one with flap, think airborne/amphib ops. drain hole or slot bottom. snap or buckle fasteners. small web loop for dummy cording item not of pyrotechnic design close to opening.
Make the smoke grenade pouch!!😊
Great ideas
Would love to have a smoke grenade pouch. Please make available to public
A smoke grenade hanger is useful but it would be better as a front attachment for me.
So U don't accidentally discharge it.
How about some love for the matolistim out here. I just picked up the pouches and want to know how to best set up my vest for the matol.
Any idea on when you guys may do just a chest rig setup? Would love to have a chest rig with a pincer placard and a few pouches for at the home rapid deployment to where I don't have to throw on my plate carrier but still have the extra mags etc. Just in case a poor soul wants to invite himself into my home! Any input on this would be great thanks!
2:00 DID YOU SEE THAT???😱 GOD saved that soilder!
I was just about to post that. Then I jumped into the comments and yours was at the top of the list. 😂
I have a question. Isn't it as long as the belly-abdominal part of these plate carriers? Yes, its current state is to protect vital organs. But abdominal injuries are also quite dangerous injuries. Therefore, the abdominal part is left exposed. what is the reason of this? thanks.
I would love to see the MC Tropic color in K-Zero and accessories as it is a Nordic + UK color
Launch the radio pouch, smoke pouch and 40mm pouch here in the US!
Also a radio pouch!
What is the TQ holder used on the back of the cummerbund? Is it the same listed in the description?
maybe you can add multi smoke pouch as we might have more than 1
ist the smokegrenade hanger to bulky?
