Magpul DAKA Magnetic Field Tray
The Magpul DAKA Field Tray is a unique EDC and loadout working mat that doubles as a gear dump tray that’s extremely durable and uses a magnetic mechanism.
The DAKA Field Tray was designed to solve the problem of losing small parts while working on firearms or other mechanical gear. The tray is equipped with a magnetic surface that will keep all your small parts organized and in one place.
These are made out of a long-lasting material, so it can be used in any condition. The tray is flexible and also has compartments to store your belongings. All you have to do is snap the four corners together and voila-you have a new contained workspace!
The powerful magnet beneath the Magpul symbol keeps small metallic items like springs, bolts, pins, and screws in place so you don’t lose anything vital to the task at hand.
For serious use, the field tray inside is dirt-free, oil-free, and debris-free. A strong magnet located below the Magpul logo keeps tiny metallic goods like springs, bolts, pins and screws in place while not in use, ensuring that important things don’t go flying off on the job. The Field Tray may be unclosed for flat storage when not in use. It’s ideal for gun cases, backpacks, and range bags.
These also make for great travel gear, as an operator or tourist. Your EDC items can be “displayed” on the tray when not in use. So you know what you have and can equip later on for missions or just going out on the town.
The DAKA Field Tray is made from a polymer material that is 30% glass filled and features a textured surface for added grip. The tray features a unique magnetic closure system that keeps your gear securely in place while you’re working on your loadout. The magnets are strong enough to keep your gear in place, but not so strong that it’s difficult to open.
The Field Tray may be un-snapped from the rest of the pack to allow for flat storage. It’s especially useful for backpacks, gun cases, and range bags because it can be removed when not in use.
Overall, I’m very impressed with the Magpul DAKA Magnetic Field Tray. It’s a unique product that is well-built and designed, and it’s a great addition to my everyday carry.
If you’re looking for a new EDC tray or loadout working mat, I highly recommend checking out the Magpul DAKA Field Tray.
![“Survival in any form for any environment is an act of prevention and or recovery, best enacted by preparation.” -Det V Cader The problem with survival prepping is the assumption that you’ll be home when the SHTF, if not then it was all for nothing. This is the solution: Standard “prepping” is the practice of stockpiling pertinent supplies and the training of survival techniques to be used for a possible lifestyle altering, large-scale catastrophe or SHTF event. The typical process is simple; slowly but consistently acquire food, water, weapons and other relevant equipment and store them in a singular central location such as a home or private “bomb” shelter. Just as important but far less utilized is the ongoing learning and practice of survival, defense and use of the prepped equipment. Having everything in one location has one fatal flaw, however. It assumes that you will be at that very location at all times or it will always be easily accessible and nearby to your present location. There’s no way of knowing when or where an “event” will take place. Meaning getting to your home base where all your survival prepping is stored may be impossible due to the nature of an “event”; mass gridlock traffic, land / infrastructure destruction, social panic and violence, restrictive martial law, vicinity containment, active combat / hot zones and public transportation collapse. The average person commutes to work or school 5 days a week far enough that they need to take motorized transportation, public or private. Then there’s leisure, recreation and errands time at other homes and facilities as well as being away on vacation. So all that survival prepping, across town or half way around the world can be lost or seized by another. For more than a decade I’ve been doing the “vagabond survival prepping method” of which evolved from stashing small city-specific go-bags around the world as part of my former operative profession. It wasn’t about survival back then but about professional utility and function. Equipment that wasn’t ideal to equip on my person at all times because of unnecessary baggage or non-permissive locales. As time went by and the more I returned to some of these “prepped cities”, the go-bags that were already stashed became better equipped and for more dynamic use such as urban / wilderness survival. To this day, I manage these hidden go-bags whenever I happen to be in their respective countries. That’s my way of survival prepping while vagabonding. These are located in a growing number of the cities I frequently visit in secure but relatively easily accessible spots such as; under a boulder access in New York’s Central Park, inside a tree stump in the Amazon Jungle and a derelict manhole in Bangkok – all of which have been my active stash spots for years. Unlike typical at-home-preppers, I don’t have the luxury of a long term address so I can’t hand pick the exact items I want off the internet to ship to. But this works out for me just fine as I build / upgrade my kits with readily available materials from the city I’m in. So if an “event” does take place (which will often affect major cities first and most), I’ll have my prep kit close by no matter where I am in the world. Instead of having to rely on a singular base a continent away. Due to the limited opportunity but unlimited variety of goods available while constantly traveling, each go-bag is completely different. Some by design and others by necessity. All are sealed to protect from the elements and hidden but easily “accessible”. Various Kit Items List: Backpack, Duffle Bag or Dry Bag MRE’s, Canned Foods and Vitamins Bottled Water and Energy Shot Water Treatment Tablets Prescription Contact Lenses Kevlar Vest or Shield Climbing Rope and Gear Euros and US Dollars Gold and Platinum Bullion Urban / SERE Kit Wilderness Kit First Aid / Trauma Kit SD Card w/ Data Smartphone Gas Mask Knife, Machete and other Weapons CB and Two-Way Radio Full Change of Clothes Multi Tool and Pry Bar Flashlight and Chemlights Sleeping Bag or Parka Solar Charger Some may consider renting a locker in a facility like train stations or self storage units. It’s not easy to maintain them for years at a time when you’re not even in the country for years at a time. Also, when considering an “event”, it’s logical to expect the loss of power grid and the mayhem in busy public areas. It’s best to stash them where no one will look in an area that won’t be too hectic but not where it will be too difficult to reach with limited transportation options. The vagabond survival prepping method isn’t limited to location independents and nomads, however. Consider your travel requirements of daily life and stash a go-bag in strategic spots accordingly; in your car, near your job, somewhere between your home and work, a friend’s place and near a hangout you frequent. Survival prepping doesn’t end with the acquisition of supplies and equipment, it only begins there and continues on with honing skills to survive and thrive.
