Molle-Lok is the fastest way to securely mount gear to your Molle webbing. With a stainless steel, spring-loaded latching system, and durable high-strength polymer construction, these Molle attachments are like no other when it comes to getting your duty gear up to your vest. Ranging in sizes from 3” to 5”, the Molle-Lok is ready to mount Holsters, Mag Pouches, or Tasers wherever you’ve got Molle.
Molle-Lok can be mounted easily on Molle webbing or our TMMS for added modularity. It’s also compatible with our Signature Double Mag Pouch as well as the AR-15 Mag Pouch.
With a spring-loaded, stainless steel pin at the center of the Molle-Lok’s latching system, the Molle-Lok can be quickly undone yet stays secure and locked to your gear even during the rigors of duty use.
High Strength Polymer ConstructionMade with Impact-Modified Nylon 6/6, providing enhanced toughness while maintaining excellent strength, stiffness, and flexibility.
A body camera’s “field of view” determines how much of the scene in front of the camera will be recorded. Too narrow a field of view will result in missed evidence. Too wide a field of view will cause “fish-eye” distortion. Some body cameras employ distortion correction technology to help capture a broad field of view without the strong distortion that would otherwise come with the wide angle lens.
If a body camera falls off an officer, it’s not doing its job, and potentially vital evidence is not being captured. It is therefore imperative that you select a camera mounting system that works well with your agency’s uniform and work practices. Options vary from the conventional center-chest magnetic mount, to brackets that interface with MOLLE and Peter Jones / Klick-Fast load-carrying systems.
Every body camera system needs a “back end” solution for storage, management, processing and secure sharing of video evidence. For very small agencies, this can be as simple as a program running on a laptop. For larger agencies, it will be a high-capacity on-premise server or a cloud-based application. When specifying your solution, you should use your video evidence retention policy to calculate exactly how much storage you will need. Some manufacturers will require you to pay large fees for storage, and even larger fees if you exceed your contractual allowance. Be sure to research the storage costs associated with each vendor.
Dual Mounting SurfacesWith six holes on both sides of the Molle-Lok, you've got options on how to mount your gear and how high you mount it.
The Blade-Tech Molle-Lok gives you the convenience and versatility you need when customizing how you carry your gear. The Molle-Lok is designed for both stability and ease of use, even under the harshest of conditions making it perfect to use with duty gear. A spring-loaded pin and lock system snaps into place, securing the item to you while also offering you the convenience of easily rearranging your gear. Each Molle-Lok is engineered to be attached to a wide range of gear, including holsters, mag pouches, and light pouches.
Next Level ModularityEasily put gear on your vests, belts, or anything else that uses MOLLE Webbing. From mag pouches to knife sheaths, the Molle-Lok has it covered.
As your body cameras build up large volumes of video evidence, it will become increasingly important that you manage the material efficiently. To accomplish this, you will need to add tagging and metadata. Some video systems can also be configured to act based on video metadata: for example prioritizing the upload of violent crime video before that of traffic citations.
Pre-event (also called pre-event buffering or pre-buffering) is a standard industry feature with police body cameras. Unlike commercial cameras, which begin capturing content when you press record, police body cameras need to be able to include contextual information into recorded incidents. The reason for this is that something relevant usually happens right before an officer presses record on his body camera, and that context should be included in evidence. This is facilitated by pre-event. The length of time that is prepended onto an incident to be included with each incident is typically dictated by agency policy and administratively controlled.
Live streaming of video from a body camera has so far had low adoption in law enforcement. Every camera is required to have a reliable broadband connection, which can be expensive and administration-intensive. Also, the impact on battery life will be significant, possibly leading to premature shutdown of cameras during extended incidents. In-car video camera systems do not carry the risk of battery depletion, so it is recommended that all vehicle systems are configured for live-streaming.
Quick Release LockThe spring-loaded lock can be quickly unlocked and the Molle-Lok moved around. With a metal locking bar, your gear isn't going anywhere.

It is strongly recommended that all sworn officers are equipped to record every interaction with citizens. This should include community liaison officers, technicians, enforcement officers and school resource officers as well as patrol officers. You should consider equipping other personnel with body cameras if they regularly interact with the community as well.
The battery life for a body camera will vary from one manufacturer to another. The minimum is often 6-8 hours, with 12 hours typically defining the high end. Bear in mind, shifts can run long, and officers may ask to use their cameras for side jobs, which will place additional burden on your camera's battery requirements. Since many agencies pool their body cameras, if your camera cannot easily replace the battery, you will need to plan time to recharge the cameras between shifts. If battery life is important to your agency, you should consider a camera that has a replaceable battery.
Body cameras are becoming an increasingly important tool for police officers. They help to capture an unbiased perspective of an incident and provide crucial evidence for investigations. When researching the best body camera for your agency, you want to be sure that the solution you choose meets the technological, practical and policy requirements of your agency.
Body cameras that support pre-event (and proprietary features such as Record-After-the-Fact) are technically always recording, though the footage is not uploaded into evidence unless a recording is initiated. Expectations of privacy by officers and citizens must therefore be carefully assessed whenever a body camera program is initiated.
Missed recordings are a significant issue for agencies with body camera programs. Most agencies have a policy which mandates camera activation when interacting with members of the community, but, in some circumstances, officers simply do not have the time to press record. Because of this, you should consider features like Record-After-the-Fact, that allow authorized agency officials to retrieve video footage from a camera’s memory, even when the record button was never pressed.
Not all cameras can. You need to specifically find a vendor that has both body cameras and in-car cameras that are built to sync with one another. Among the few vendors that do offer this capability, the level of integration will vary.
Our Molle attachments are available in 3” and 5” versions which allow for mounting whatever you need whether it’s Blade-Tech gear or your own crafted duty gear solution.
