FMA MIC CAT Tourniquet Gen 7 Replica — Black

Decorative replica of the Combat Application Tourniquet (CAT) Gen 7, manufactured by FMA for airsoft kit. It reproduces the shape and finish of the original tactical first-aid device, with a simulated one-handed application, designed to complete an IFAK kit or medical pouch on a plate carrier during milsim activities.

The FMA replica of the CAT Gen 7 is built to replicate the appearance of the genuine device: the windlass, strap and securing velcro are all present and closely imitate the construction of the original. This makes it useful for training in kit positioning and visual reference, but it carries the fundamental limitation of any replica: it has neither the mechanical strength nor the medical tolerances of a certified device, and must never be used in a real medical emergency. Anyone training in tactical first aid must do so with approved devices.

For milsim, the replica solves a practical problem: carrying a genuine CAT in a pouch means risking damage or loss in the field, while a decorative example maintains the correct visual appearance of the kit without putting operational equipment at risk. The trade-off is straightforward: you gain visual consistency in your setup at the cost of zero medical functionality.

Key points

• Closely reproduces the shape and finish of the CAT Gen 7, giving an airsoft kit a visually complete and realistic look.
• Allows the tourniquet to be positioned in the IFAK pouch during milsim without exposing a certified device to the hazards of the field.
• Useful for getting used to the placement and draw of the tourniquet in your own setup, as part of equipment management training.
• Black colour, compatible with most plate carriers and tactical accessories used in milsim.
• This is not a medical device and does not replace a certified tourniquet under any circumstances: it must not be used for first aid.
