RE Factor Tactical – Soup Sandwich T-Shirt

Sunday, September 10th, 2017

When I was a younger man (and still in the service), I often used the term “Soup Sandwich”. These days, it’s “Football Bat” but I guess that’s a tough one to draw.

Hi-Lux Introduces New Rifle Scope for CMP and NRA Service Rifle Matches

Saturday, September 9th, 2017

The Hi-Lux XTC 1-4 X 34 rifle scope is specifically designed for CMP and NRA High Power “Across the Course” Competition. Featuring a 34mm objective lens for optimal light gathering, the XTC 1-4 X 34 has front objective parallax adjustment from 15 yards to infinity. Since stages for Across the Course matches are set at fixed distances of 200, 300 and 600 yards, an adjustable parallax is critical in minimizing the parallax error.

Additionally, fine ¼ MOA click elevation and windage turrets allow for precise adjustment. The XTC 1-4 X 34 is the next generation of the Hi-Lux Close-to-Medium Range (CMR) tactical scope and is loaded with advanced design features that truly put it in a class all of its own.

Blue Force Gear Focuses On Lightening The Load With Their Innovative Technology At DSEI

Friday, September 8th, 2017

POOLER, Ga., September 7, 2017 – Blue Force Gear®, the designer and manufacturer of the world’s finest weapon slings and tactical equipment, is gearing up to promote its innovative technologies meant to Lighten the Load™ of tactical equipment. Blue Force Gear will highlight tactical equipment that utilizes each of its innovative technologies at the Defense and Security Equipment International (DSEI) show at ExCeL, London from Sept. 12-15.

Blue Force Gear is built on innovation, always looking to elevate tactical equipment and gear across the industry. Through the introduction of the Helium Whisper® Attachment System, MOLLEminus, ULTRAcomp® and Ten-Speed®, Blue Force Gear continues to revolutionize the way tactical gear is made.

The MicroTKN!™, the smallest version of the Trauma Kit NOW!™, utilizes Ten-Speed technology with its outer MOLLE or belt mounted pouch. The MicroTKN! is designed to hold essential lifesaving medical supplies in a small, easy-to-carry pack that takes up minimal space and carries a low profile. The kit currently is offered in three options: basic, advanced and unfilled.

Blue Force Gear strives to lighten the load for tactical operators with its innovative technologies and newest tactical equipment. The PLATEminus Plate Carrier utilizes MOLLEminus, a revolutionary load carriage platform that is fully MOLLE compatible. Being the lightest plate carrier on the market is just one example of how Blue Force Gear’s innovative technologies are changing the way load carriage systems are designed.

“We are dedicated to innovation and always introducing the best products we can to our customers,” said Stephen Hilliard, Director of Product Development of Blue Force Gear. “We’re really looking forward to everyone seeing our next generation of gear and all that Blue Force Gear has been up to in 2017.”
