Tactical Jack Police Earpiece – Gel Insert.
by admin on Jun.19, 2008, under Patrol Store
The Tactical Jack Gel Insert is designed to fit onto the end of all standard clear-coiled acoustic earpiece tubes, as featured on the Tactical Jack Police Earpiece (Talk & Listen) for Motorola MTH800 and the Tactical Jack Police Earpiece (Talk & Listen) for Sepura SRP2000.
Unlike normal earpiece tips, that have to be pressed into the ear canal, the gel inserts sit around it.
This gives greater comfort to the user, allowing the earpiece to be worn for longer periods of time without the discomfort associated with traditional tips. Due to the insert not blocking the ear canal it gives the user greater ability to hear background noise. They are also less likely to become dislodged.
Also due to the earpiece sitting comfortably outside the ear hole you won’t get that horrible build up of wax associated with the traditional tips.
This combination of good fit and improved hearing will make you safer and leave you to carry on without the irritation caused by standard ear tips.

JUST IN! – Tactical Jack Torch – TJ1 Protector LED
by admin on May.01, 2008, under Patrol Store
We have just received the new Tactical Jack torch – TJ1 Protector LED into stock. It truly is one of the best police torches I’ve seen for its price in a long long time.
A number of the team here at Patrol Store are self-confessed torch spotters, and we regularly have arguments over which is the best torch and which is best in each price range. However when the Tactical Jack TJ1 Protector LED torch arrived we all agreed that it is the best bar none in its price bracket.
The Tactical Jack TJ1 Protector High Intensity LED Torch is a compact tactical torch ideal for Police, Security and general use.
Featuring a high intensity 1 watt LED with a 45 Lumen output, this torch is ideal for tactical operations and self defence (featuring a focused beam bright enough to temporarily blind and disorientate).
The use of an LED instead of an incandescent lamp also means that the torch has an extended burn time of over 50 hours!
This torch really is great; instead of running off costly lithium batteries, Tactical Jack have created a great new battery system allowing you to run the torch on 3 x AAA batteries. This may not sound too exciting but when you go to buy batteries and see the difference in price I think you will understand why I mention it.
Possibly the most functional feature of this torch is its On / Off Tailcap switch which can be thumb activated for single handed use which makes it ideal for tactical situations.
Key features of the torch -
The TJ1 Protector torch is:
· Palm sized.
· Lightweight.
· Weatherproof.
· Body is anodised high-strength aluminium alloy.
· Sealed O-ring.
· On / Off Tailcap switch.
The Tactical Jack TJ1 Protector LED torch gives many high-end features for a truly remarkable price.

New Range – ASP Handcuffs.
by admin on Apr.25, 2008, under Patrol Store
The new ASP Handcuffs provide a major advance in both the design and construction of handcuff restraints.
ASP Frame geometry is the result of extensive computer modelling and analysis at ASP, which has lead to major advances in both the design and construction of wrist restraints.
ASP Handcuff – Chain Linked – Black or Yellow
Strength potential has been maximized through the use of an interlocking, unitised frame. The ASP handcuff structure is forged from high-strength stainless. The flat bow section provides single movement application preventing slippage on the wrist, experienced with your old handcuffs. There is a keyway and double-lock channel on both sides of each ASP handcuff, so removing the handcuffs is easier and safer.
During a confrontation no handcuff goes on easier due to the swivelling ASP chain and no matter which way you put the ASP handcuffs on the double sided locks allow for easy removal. The red indicator alerts you if the handcuffs are not double locked. The rounded edges of the cuff ensure that you should get fewer complaints of the cuffs ‘cutting in’ to the suspect.
Features:
Interlocking unitised frame
Dual keyway
Deep set teeth for extra security
Rounded edges
One direction unlock
Red double-lock indicator
Includes standard handcuff key
Fits in standard handcuff pouches
Serialised
ASP Handcuff – Hinged – Steel
Asp Hinged Handcuffs incorporate a four-point stainless steel connection. The rivetless exterior design allows the cuffs to lie flat in a case or on the belt. Hinged cuffs enable the user to gain the same compliance as with a fully rigid cuff.
The cuff structure is forged from high strength stainless steel on custom built, high speed, progressive dies. Each restraint is then overmolded with ordnance grade polymer under 75 tons of pressure. The Lock Assembly is unitised and replaceable.
Features:
Strong steel construction
Interlocking unitised frame
Dual keyway
Deep set teeth for extra security
Radiused edges
One direction unlock
Coloured double-lock indicator
Includes standard handcuff key
ASP Handcuff – Hinged – Aluminium
Asp Aluminium Hinged Handcuffs incorporate a four-point aluminium connection. The rivetless exterior design allows the cuffs to lie flat in a case or on the belt.
Hinged cuffs enable the user to gain the same compliance as with a fully rigid cuff. Aluminium greatly reduces weight and this is a major advantage to officers who are increasingly suffering back problems due to increased kit requirements.
Its aluminium material combines a forged bow with an overmolded stainless steel frame to make these cuffs strong, smooth, and lightweight. ASP handcuffs provide a major advance in both design and construction of wrist restraints. Using an interlocking, unitized frame has maximized strength potential. The handcuff structure is forged from high-strength aluminium on custom built, high-speed progressive dies. The lock assembly is unitised and replaceable.
Features:
Lightweight – weighs less than 9 oz.
Interlocking unitised frame
Dual keyway
Deep set teeth for extra security
Radiused edges
One direction unlock
Coloured double-lock indicator
Includes standard handcuff key

Viper Security Jacket
by admin on Apr.14, 2008, under Patrol Store
The Viper Security Jacket is a great bit of kit for door supervisors and all those involved in contract security work.
The Viper Security Jacket has Panels with ’security’ on the front and the back of the jacket.
The front panel is on the right breast section and the back panel goes across the width of the jacket at shoulder height.
The panels can be concealed with zips, which allows you to wear it home after work or off duty.
The sleeves can also be unzipped to create a badged body warmer. The jacket has a Velcro panel on the left chest to attach your the logo of your company or individuals’ name tags.
If you’re involved in contract security work as a door supervisor or in event security, you’ll need one of these as much as your SIA license.

Police Kit – Pick of the Week: Magnum Boot Elite Spider – 8″ Leather and Nylon
by admin on Mar.28, 2008, under Patrol Store
The Patrol Store team have been waiting for this boot to arrive like a group of five year olds waiting for Christmas.
To say that we’re excited about this new addition to the range of Magnum boots would be an understatement.
The Magnum Elite Spider – 8†Leather and Nylon features many revolutionary design features that set it apart from its competition and put in a league of it’s own for use in elite tactical situations.
The boot ranks as one of the lightest boots in this market, also it features a breathable membrane that puts many of its rivals to shame.
This boot is a rival to all boots competing in the tactical boot market, this cutting-edge boot is engineered to suit the needs of the highest level elite tactical professionals, including US SWAT, UK Tactical Firearms patrols and operational task force officers.
Hopefully I’ve now got you as excited as we are about the boot let’s see what Magnum have to say about their great new boot.
“Raising the bar in the lightweight category, Magnum Elite Spider is 20% lighter than any other boot in its category.
Elite Spider’s lightweight construction suits SWAT type operational missions by keeping officers light and agile on their feet. The boot’s upper is constructed of combination fully polishable full-grain leather, lightweight action leather and highly breathable aero mesh allowing for added breathability.
Unlike most tactical boots on the market, Elite Spider is built on a running shoe structure/last making it cut out for running and physical training.
The integrated tri-density compression-moulded EVA midsole, a technology typically reserved for running footwear, provides support and comfort where needed, while a 3D Max Comfort Contoured Footbed cushions with 3 layers: comfort, support and shock absorption. A shoelace pouch conceals laces for safety and convenience.
Elite Spider’s proprietary Vibram® outsole, which exceeds international slip and oil-resistance standards, is made up of the quietest rubber compound available, generating less noise and providing a higher level of grip than the industry standard.â€
Features include:
Lightweight, Breathable Aeromesh Nylon
Full Grain/Action Leather
Running Shoe Last
‘Spidermesh’ Lining
3DMax Footbed
Composite Shank
EVA Midsole
Vibram Slip Resistant Sole
EN347 Compliant
Available in sizes 3 to 14
By creating the Elite Spider Magnum have made a boot that not only is more comfortable, lighter, and easier to use in situations where the wearer needs to be quick on their feet but with the added re-assurance of high levels of grip, stability and comfort.
Customers have stated:
“The Magnum Elite Spider is a remarkably comfortable boot, It has great breathability and a sturdy construction.â€
“Straight out of the box they are comfortable and extremely light. When walking, your foot is thrown forward like when wearing trainers, making them ideal for foot chases. This boot is great.â€

ZT Ultimate Metal Key Holder / Hook – Black
This week we have been looking at our range of Key hooks and holders. And after trying them all out we have chosen the ZT Ultimate Key Holder / Hook which we import from the USA as our Star Pick. We like it so much that we’ve made a video, which you can view here.
