The D.A.R.K. Slim, which is similar to our signature kit, (The DARK) has everything you need, and nothing you don't when it comes to a lifesaving trauma kit. The DARK Slim is packed tightly with more trauma supplies than you can typically find in other trauma kits this size. This tactical style trauma kit, or Individual First Aid Kit (IFAK), was designed with "simplicity under stress" in mind, for when you need it most. The DARK Slim is trusted by both, the Military in the world's worst environments and Law Enforcement Agencies around the country. The D.A.R.K. Slim is perfect for the Military and Law Enforcement as a tactical trauma kit, and for First Responders and Civilian use.

Details:
The kit features a side mounted TQ pouch on the right side that will accommodate either the CAT (standard offering) or SOFTT-W (substitution), trauma shear retention strap and PALS channel on the left side, a 2”x3” loop patch on the front of the pouch for medical identifiers, personal identifiers, etc. and a new attachment system that eliminates snaps. The webbing is woven through the channels on web gear and “tucked” back under and tension holds the kit in place. **BLACK POUCHES HAVE DETACHABLE BELT LOOPS*** The pouch is 500D nylon made in the USA.
The kit comes in multiple color choices.

Perfect size, great contents, very happy with purchase.
The attachment method allows for height adjustment on my belt, tourniquet and shears have no slop, plus, everything is quick and easy to access. The only thing that I would (and will) change is to add duct tape so you can use the vacuum seal bag or mylar blanket as extra improvised chest seals in a mass shooting situation.
I have two with pouch inserts. They might be slightly larger than some of the other kits out there but the extra medical you can add and being able to bundle everything (tq and shears) sold me. I’ve been through multiple pouches and these are the ones I run now. The pouch insert is awesome for being able to quickly deploy and access your med components. Definitely a great piece of kit!
Excellent kit with fast arrival!
Going to give this thing 5 stars. Super happy with it. I decided to put this kit on my gun belt. I opted for the pouch insert on this one or easy access with my off hand. All of the vacuum sealed products arrived intact just fine. I was super excited to find out these guys were based in Colorado, so I'm supporting a local business here. My only minor complaint is with the pouch itself. It looks like a seam busted on the lid cover and i have a bit of nylon thread loose. Beyond that super minor thing, I'm thrilled with this kit.
High quality product. Came highly recommended and I was impressed with what was received. They shipped faster than expected in a Covid environment.
I have purchased a number of Dark Angel products since taking one of their classes and been impressed with all them. I picked up the Slim for my battle belt, which I use when working rifle drills on the range or when I'm camping. It keeps everything I need close at hand without being obstructive. It held up great during a rifle course I took over the Fourth and I'm very happy to have another piece of Dark Angel gear with me if I ever find myself in a situation that requires it.
Great stuff has everything quick access which is great when in full gear.
This slim kit lives up to its name. I was on the fence by price but once I received the milspec kit, I was highly impressed and I am now thinking about going to their medical course out of state. I feel more prepared with this kit and I'll be ordering more refills. My backstory is that I survived two violent gun crimes (bad school/ city areas). If I had known about these years ago during those horrific times, I could’ve saved lives rather than watch people bleed out rapidly while EMS took minutes. As a survivor I am very pro gun. These are ideal for go bags for civilians. The price isn't high for what you get, but the results are there. Think of this thing as a life jacket. Chances are you’ll never need it but if you do really need it, poor training or a bad kit is no good and people die. Thanks for such a high quality kit. I believe every range bag, car, home, etc needs one of these. I wish public schools had more of these kits in their clinics for saving people during tragedies.
