Wednesday, January 9th, 2013HSP Unveils INCOG IWB Holster System by G-Code
Wednesday, January 9th, 2013The INCOG IWB Holster System is a joint development project combining the experience and expertise of two industry leaders with the goal of providing a premium quality, real-world IWB carry system.
Scott Evans, Director of Operations at G-Code Holsters, attended multiple Haley Strategic weapons manipulation and Disruptive Environments training events during 2012. Throughout these programs, a clear need emerged for a better solution to the IWB carry. After some exploration and discussion, a collaboration began between the two companies to develop a IWB system that solved specific problems with other offerings on the market today.
The INCOG is a minimum bulk, multi-positional, deep concealment holster. It’s distinctive features enable the concealed carry of a handgun from a variety of carry positions while maintaining the tactical availability of the weapon. Inherent in the system are adjustments in the depth of carry, angle of carry, the position of carry and security of carry. Adjustments are supported via the unique modular mounting points on the holster and the use of variable mounting components.
Combined they maximize function respective to the users: body type, deployment tactics and personal preferences. The holster is adaptive to varying operational environments and mission requirements.
The patent pending “INCOG Mounting Clip” is is molded from high strength materials and incorporates a negative angle designed to force the holster closer to the body. This improves the conceal-ability of the holster without increasing bulk and supports a higher positional carry without compromise to the security of the system during use. This higher position facilitates faster weapon presentations from deep cover.
The mounting clips also have multiple mounting points further increasing the range of carry options and adjustments. The unique geometry of the mounting clips open and slide down over the belt and lock in place. The clip is actuated via a finger tab, and is flexed to open allowing quick installation or removal of the rig from the belt.
The INCOG holster body is precision formed Kydex providing a secure “snap and pop” fit. In addition, a synthetic suede like material lovingly referred to as “Tactical FUZZ” is laminated to the outer shell of the holster. The FUZZ serves as a soft comfort zone between the holster and the body elevating wear-ability over extended periods. More importantly, this material forms a friction zone between the wearer’s garment and the holster. This aids in the positional security of the rig drastically reducing “holster shift” during movement.
The HSP team has extensively tested the INCOG IWB Holster System to meet their exacting operational and performance standards. Likewise; as with all G-Code products, the INCOG comes with a lifetime warranty factory.
Pricing for base system starts at $69.95 For more information: www.tacticalholsters.com/product/INC/INCOG
DS Tactical to Offer Velocity Systems and Mayflower Lines in Kryptek Patterns This Month
Wednesday, January 9th, 2013Velocity Systems and Mayflower have leaked a photo or two of their current and future products in the Kryptek family of patterns which are currently finalists in the US Army’s Camouflage Improvement Effort. They had planned on debuting everything at SHOT Show and following the normal flow of things. Take orders at SHOT and then release product based on those orders in mid-spring. But now, we don’t have to wait. Velocity Systems FNG David Walsh related to SSD, “We planned to launch the sale of our existing product line (in Kryptek) at the upcoming SHOT show. DS Tactical was ready to invest immediately and who are we to argue?”
What happened to speed things up is that Canada’s DS Tactical has already placed an order that includes Mayflower LPAAC’s, APC’s, several pouches and each of the Chest rig styles in the Kryptek Highlander, Mandrake and Typhon patterns. “Working direct with end users, we believe that Kryptek offers the best range of use in every environment. Velocity/Mayflower was the easy choice when it came to providing innovative products because of their high quality and knowledge of end user needs,“ said DS Tactical’s Colin Noppers.
This stocking order means that these patterns of all Plate Carriers and Chest Rigs from Velocity and Mayflower will be available later this month. Nomad will be available in March. While pricing isn’t completely settled, they should remain in line with those of existing printed products from Velocity and Mayflower. In addition to the current line, both brands will be introducing new products at next week’s SHOT Show.

Eric Kincel Leaves Vltor to Move to Bravo Company
Wednesday, January 9th, 2013Right after Christmas Eric Kincel announced that he was leaving the company he founded 10 years ago, Vltor and its associate Abrams Airborne. What we weren’t able to say until now is that he was heading to Bravo Company to head up their newly established R&D department in Las Vegas. To industry insiders this move comes as little surprise. Kincel has worked with Bravo Company on several projects in the past and this looks like a great fit. We wish them luck.
Dear Friends and Supporters,
With the New Year comes a new beginning. As you probably gathered from my email address, I’ve taken up a position with Bravo Company USA as the Director of Research and Development. Even though Bravo Company is located in Wisconsin, Paul Buffoni (Pres./CEO) has started a second satellite facility in Las Vegas, Nevada. The LV facility is nothing more than a “Skunk Works”, or a location for Research and Development for the future BCM Gunfighter product line.
This recent move from Tucson was a major decision for my wife and I, but we are excited about the future and the possibilities. I look forward to working with and staying in contact with all my friends and supporters for years to come.
For those of you attending the SHOT Show, I will also be there, but will not be manning a booth. For the first time in ten-plus years, I will get to walk the floor and see the show in its complete splendor. Please email me if you would like to meet up and I look forward to seeing all of the familiar faces of the industry.
I hope everyone has a wonderful 2013.
Respectfully,
Eric S. Kincel
Director of Research & Development
