I Want My Camo Announcement Now! Sign The Petition

US Army Camo – And Now, The Rest Of The Story
Wednesday, April 17th, 2013By now you’ve read these cool revelations online that the Army camo program race is too close to call. That couldn’t be further from the truth.
I spent some time in the Test and Evaluation business and one thing you should notice is that the more data you collect, the closer you will come to a true average of performance. In this case, with over 120,000 data points collected, pitting four commercial families of camouflage patterns across examples of the Global Military Operating Environments, everything started to look flat. One family’s woodland might do very well yet their desert pattern, not so much, and so on throughout testing. This was especially true with the transitional patterns that all used virtually the same color palette. As test data was weighted and tabulated, everything started to look like it performed the same. And yet, there was one area, where one family of patterns stood out, and that was the family that was recommended to the Army’s leadership.
Now, we wait to hear the announcement of that decision.
Introducing the Blue Force Gear M320 Grenade Launcher Holster
Wednesday, April 17th, 2013The Blue Force Gear Grenade Launcher Holster has already seen over a year of use by combat forces carrying the H&K M320 the current US Army issue 40mm grenade launcher. While the M320 can be attached to an M4 carbine or used in a stand alone mode, the holster was designed for the latter mode of operation. When used as a stand alone, the M320 resembles a rather large caliber pistol with a telescoping buttstock.
As the M320 can make an M4 carbine rather unwieldy, most troops carry it in the standalone mode and have been storing it in a wide variety of field expedient manners including Blue Force Gear medium vertical pouches, SAW mag pouches, in backpacks or dangling via single point sling.
While there are a couple of other holster solutions on the market, BFG took a completely unique approach. It stores and ships flat and when not mounted to your gear and can be disassembled and stored flat in a pack.
The holster is an open top design with an adjustable cross strap allowing for use with any sighting system. A bungee loop can be placed around the grip for additional retention.
The holster mounts to a 3 x 4 MOLLE field and can be mounted on the right side with the grip to the rear or left side with the grip forward.
