Interested in Some Special Platatac Kit?
Friday, March 23rd, 2012Platatac just posted a picture of a new rig on their Facebook wall. It’s a niche piece of kit but they’re wondering if anyone else would be interested in it. Go check it out, let ’em know what you think. Many people are unaware that the Australian company frequently builds small batches of specialized kit that never goes out on their commercial site. If they make just a few dozen it might cost as much as $400. If they manufacture over a hundred the price could be cut in half. Go check it out.

Tentsile – A Unique Shelter from the UK
Friday, March 23rd, 2012We love hammocks but let’s face it, they are kind of cramped. But not anymore, at least now that Tentsile is on the scene. The advantages are obvious; stay up, off of the ground and avoid pests, water, dangerous animals and other threats.
They offer shelters to accommodate groups ranging in size from 2 – 8 persons. Tentsile will work with you to build to your requirements but generally, the larger versions of these super hammocks follow a three-pointed design with individual sleeping areas radiating out from a communal porch.
Tentsile shelters aren’t for every environment but if the conditions are right, they sure do look like a lot of fun.

Survive the Hunt Premieres 26 March on Pursuit Network
Friday, March 23rd, 2012
What happens when you take military grade technology and TTPs and apply them against big game? The new Pursuit Network series, “Survive the Hunt” that’s what. Hosted by Navy SEAL and HMFIC at Reaper Outdoors, Master Chief Ron “Reaper01” Bellan, “Survive the Hunt” takes on big game hunting, outdoor living and survival in a new way; from the perspective of the seasoned combat veteran.
Episode 1 features Operation Winterhorn, a trophy Elk hunt in South Dakota. Reaper01 and the team use sniper weapons and tactics to bag their prey. In particular, watch for the 1000 trophy shot from a PWS MK2 in 7.62 NATO.
“Survive the Hunt” premieres Monday, 26 March, 2012 at 1830. Visit www.reaperoutdoors.com to learn more.
Ops-Core to Resume Operations
Friday, March 23rd, 2012In an agreement with the City of Boston earlier this week, Ops-Core will have 45 days to do assembly work, but no painting, in its space at Fort Point Studios. Simultaneously, it will move its operation to a new facility in Boston. This comes after recent tensions with artist-tenants at Fort Point Studios. I feel this is great for America and great for Ops-Core and great for their employees who will be back to work.
Personally, I hope the remaining tenants of Fort Point get exactly what they asked for. That mean old corporation (Ops-Core) that employs people and pays taxes and rent and stuff will go away. Now all that needs to happen is for the owners of the facility to get their tenants to step up and pay fair value for their flats. I hope they enjoy actually pulling their own weight.
