Hunting mule deer is one thing; hunting mule deer using a bow with howling winds in the Sandhills of Nebraska is something entirely different. Luckily for active duty Navy SEAL, Master Chief Ron Bellan and the rest of the Reaper Outdoors team they had Camo Form® to help them accomplish their mission.
Reaper Outdoors is the team behind the hit television series, “Survive The Hunt,” the first tactical/ hunting show. Recently Camo Form by McNett® Tactical sponsored a mule deer hunt with the Reaper Team on an episode titled, “Operation Camo Form.” Despite cold, harsh and windy conditions, they managed to land a mule deer with the help of Camo Form.
“We’re wrapping anything and everything we can think of,” said Bellan. “We’re using it and have been using it for a long time. We believe in this product. It’s Reaper tested, Reaper approved.”
Camo Form is the only reusable camouflage wrap that will not leave a sticky residue when removed. Unlike camouflage tapes, Camo Form adheres to itself as it is wrapped around the object. Camo Form helps conceal weapons, blinds and outdoor gear, adds grip, quiets clanking objects and helps with noise dampening. In addition, the heavy-duty fabric can be washed and re-used many times over. With 14 traditional and digital camo patterns, Camo Form offers on-the-fly concealment no matter what the environment.
Bag Rats, the UK answer to box nasties. After our recent mention of Box Nasties, we received this report from a Royal Marine named Alex.
I saw your post about the box nasty lunches you guys get. They don’t look too bad to be honest!
Well, compared to the ‘bag rats’ we get over here in the UK. Typically a brown paper bag with a nasty sandwich, a yellowing apple, a bag of crisps (chips) and a cold cornish pasty (a type of savoury pastry) filled with some kind of ‘meat’.
The problem is, the civilian contractors who make them can be evil buggers. Case in point – the attached image of a so-called ham sandwhich. This sort of thing happens all the time!
Thanks for putting this into perspective for us. At least we get meat, even if we can’t figure out what type it is.
Blue Force Gear is looking for input on future color options for the Hive Satchel in addition to any feedback regarding the concept as a whole. The above image links to the poll, so make your voice heard.
