In a special notice issued just minutes ago, United States Special Operations Command has canceled the Suppressor Upper Receiver Group solicitation.
The Suppressor Upper Receiver Group solicitation is cancelled.
United States Special Operations Command plans to analyze the results of the testing and post a new solicitation to industry in the future.
The message was simple and straight forward, yet doesn’t explain why. Many in industry have been very critcal of the ambitious program due to its requirements to keep the weapon cool enough to handle in spite of high operating temperatures.
Considering the solicitation closed just a month ago, this move seems quite sudden. It sounds like none of the candidates met the program’s goals and SOCOM is going to circle back around.
Fountain Valley, CA — SureFire, LLC, manufacturer of the world’s finest—and most innovative—illumination tools and tactical products, has launched their new M600IB Intellibeam ™ ScoutLight®. The revolutionary M600IB utilizes SureFire’s proprietary IntelliBeam™ Technology—an intelligent sensor and microprocessor-based system that continuously evaluates the environment where the beam is aimed—to automatically adjust the light output to the optimal level, anywhere between 100 and 600 lumens. So you always get just the right amount of light for the taskat hand, based on your surroundings! Inside, in close quarters, you get less light, to eliminate light splashing back into your eyes. Outside, or with longer distances, you get maximum output.

Developed in coordination with some of the leading medics and combat first responders, the MATBOCK Backdraft is for small teams with relatively quick access to higher levels of care.
The unit mounts on the back of the plate carrier via MOLLE and is split into 2 separate removable pouches that are held in place via Velcro.
The unit was designed to split medical equipment between bleeding and airway and is run in this setup by different units.
The bottom of each pouch is attached to an adjustable lanyard that connects to the side panel of the plate carrier. When the operator requires the contents of one of the pouches, he or she simply pulls the lanyard, releasing that pouch.
The pack does not come equipped with any medical supplies as this time and is not limited to medical purposes only, but was initially designed for the medic. The back panel of the unit and the pouches is Tegris to give them rigidity and the pouches are made of MATBOCK’s extremely lightweight and strong Ghost Lite. Additionally, because the material is completely waterproof, the contents of the bag will remain protected from the environments.
