Tactical accessories from Recon Company – pouches, patches and equipment for duty

Not all equipment can be neatly pigeonholed into a single category. Tactical accessories are what make the difference when everything else is in place – the right pouch in the right place, a notebook that works even in the rain, batteries that don’t rattle loose in a side pocket. At Recon Company, we’ve been sourcing precisely these military accessories for over 30 years – selected according to the same criteria we apply to government contracts.

The range is aimed at soldiers, police officers and security personnel who know what they need – and at anyone still figuring it out. We’re here to help.

Tactical Pouches and Admin Panels – Organisation under pressure

A tactical pouch is only any good if it works in the dark. Operable with one hand, quiet, and compatible with your existing MOLLE accessory setup. Our range includes utility pouches for loose bits and bobs, specialised mag pouches, as well as admin panels for maps, pens and documents – brands such as Tasmanian Tiger, 5.11 Tactical, Helikon, Maxpedition and SnigelDesign. Anyone buying an admin panel should look out for a paracord retention system – the so-called ‘flip-down brake’ prevents the entire contents from spilling onto the ground when opening it whilst standing. It sounds trivial, but you’ll realise its importance at the very latest the first time you use one without it.

Anyone configuring their system should bear in mind: not all MOLLE compatibility is the same. Cheap systems slip out of place under load. We only stock pouches that, after being put on and taken off multiple times, still stay where they’re meant to be.

Patches – Velcro, IR and Morale

Bundeswehr patches and tactical markings are not mere decoration. IR-reflective markings, unit insignia and flag patches fulfil a clear function in the field – identification under stress, at night, and from the air. Military Velcro patches can be quickly swapped and attached to any compatible garment, helmet or rucksack.

We also stock morale patches – anyone familiar with military service knows that these too have their place. GITD variants for night-vision compatibility are also available in our range. The selection is constantly growing.

Battery organisers, EDC and waterproof notebooks

Small bits and bobs take up time if they’re not organised. A battery organiser from Storacell keeps AA, AAA and CR123 batteries to hand – no rummaging around in your night camouflage gear, no pulling out the wrong size. Anyone who manages batteries for night-vision devices, torches and two-way radios all at once knows just how quickly things can get confusing.

Add to that waterproof notebooks from Rite in the Rain – you can write in them in drizzling rain, in the snow and with wet fingers. No swelling, no smudging. Anyone sketching maps in the field or jotting down observations needs paper that can keep up. The range is complemented by EDC gear such as key organisers and micro-tools – compact, suitable for everyday use, and service-compatible.
