Professional Operator's Kit --- A review

I recently received the Professional Operators Kit from Blue Line Gear. My purpose for this piece of equipment is for Search and Rescue Missions. SAR missions are one of my primary responsibilities; because of this I wanted a light weight, wearable bag, that could conceal/carry a full size pistol, an extra magazine, a radio, a flash light, pens / pencils, pad of paper, my favorite Blade the Harsey T-3, and other miscellaneous items.

I looked around the internet for several months before I settled on the POK. I read rave reviews about it on badlands so I figured I would give it a try.

I ordered the POK from Ryan at www.bluelinegear.com . Ryan was awesome, I ordered the POK on a Saturday, Ryan called me on Monday and advised me of a delay, but by Friday I had the POK on my door step.

It is approximately 10 X 10 inches in size it features 7 channels and 5 rows of MOLLE attachment points on the front. I added a DBT admin pouch and DBT small radio pouch to fit my needs. On the back it gives you the ability of attaching it to a pack or other MOLLE compatible platform via MOLLE attachments that are included or you can wear it like a radio chest rig.

Inside on the top contains a flat area of loop Velcro with an adjustable universal holster, an adjustable double magazine pouch. On the bottom it contains several elastic loops, a clear ID panel and 2 zippered pockets for various items. Construction is top notch, with taped and double stitched seams this thing is one tough piece of gear.

Zippered up this bag is very unobtrusive and it fits my needs very well, on a SAR mission now all I do is ditch my duty belt, grab my POK, garb my camelback, and I hit the wood line. I would highly recommend the POK and Blue Line Gear to anyone!

More info on the POK from there website.
