Thread: PLB pouch fail

About 4 years old,just fell off belt kit,poos polypropylene webbing is rotten

Good call out. Would hate to need to grab it and it not be there.

Mines in a Twinneedle....there bombproof mate!!!!!

Nice to point out for people, I keep mine in a convenient pocket rather than rely on the strap

this old green bugger is over 30

I could make you one out of kydex, would need it in hand to do though.

Yes I have the same, a mate of mine can make to order. I am about to drop my camera from my knife belt so will get a new one made to fit just PLB

I use a Twinneedle Small Radio Pouch to hold my ACR Res-Q-Link + PLB. Fits in perfectly and it is bomb proof. I didn't trust the neoprene & velcro pouch it came with, wouldn't survive 5 minutes in the Kaimais.

@Bryan. I have the same PLB and the neoprene pouch it came with didnt last. Been looking fo ra pouch that will be nice and snug. You find teh top to the Twin Needle is sufficient? That was my only doubt.

@kiwijames

Yup its plenty strong enough. Has a strong bungy paracord attached to a strong plastic clip. Quality materials used and very well made and my PLB doesn't budge in there. I just tightened the cord until it was a super snug fit. Went this way verses their larger radio/plb pouch as it would have been too long.

Twin needle also make a radio pouch with a canvas lid, This is what I use for my acr.

The KTI's seem to have a solid case, will check the belt loop though.
