Matthew Cole, owner of Cole Partnerships & Training (CPT), is one of those guys that never seems to sleep and is mysteriously everywhere at the same time.  It is that kind of hustle that is going to make an impact in this industry.

I met Matt while standing in line waiting to get into the Crye Precision party at SHOT SHOW 2014. In the few minutes before I had to jump into an inner tube and head down the ice slide into the party, we setup some time to speak on the floor of the show.

He gave me the opportunity to check out his version of the admin pouch, called the Practical Admin Pouch, or PAP. Very thin, light, and well…practical…the PAP gives shooters everything they need to access essentials in the field.

CPT Admin Pouch Inside

 

Many of the features of the pouch were born out of Cole’s first hand experience during the time he served, like instant access to a Commanders Critical Information Request List, or High Value Target List.

His specific goal was to keep it small, unobtrusive, and to have a pouch that could be mounted centerline and not mess with magazine changes. The components were laid out to be horizontal, not vertical to take up minimal real estate on the user’s body.

The pouch also contains a clear pocket to house things like a topo map, CCRI, HVT list – and it is dry erase compatible. This pouch is also removable in case you want to run a tourniquet on your centerline instead. There are multiple quick store pockets in the pouch as well.

Coming in at around the $45 mark, the CPT PAP is worth a look for shooters looking for a minimalist admin pouch to add to their kit.
