Relevance?
Let me get this straight – from what cat blaster just posted…. First Spear has the Patent on laser cut MOLLE? What am I missing? If they do, then they must be making a killing on the new Army MSV 2.0 contract!
yep
SSD – thoughts on this as it relates to the industry…… Now that MSV 2.0 is official with laser cut MOLLE – I feel everyone will jump on board and adopt it. However if FS has the patent, then there’s going to be some soon to be rich lawyers out there….
Funny thing is – Crye Precision claims to have a patent on laser cut MOLLE/PALS too.
link to the patent?
Okay, digging a little deeper – it appears that this is based on FS’s 6/12 design, it has the loop on the back face of the laser cut fabric for the pouch tabs to attach to. From what I read (again, I ain’t a lawyer) if you cut a slit into the standard laminated fabric (non FS version with loop Velcro) and attach a standard MOLLE pocket then you are not in violation of the patent. Curious to see what others say…
I read it as both velcro and non velcro laminate materials.

All I know is that I tried to do business with these guys two years ago and couldn’t get them to return a phone call or email. Spent the better part of a month filling out their form and emailing it multiple times, calling and leaving messages before I just gave up on them. Guess they didn’t want my money.
I’ve purchased from Beez and never had an issue.
We got some custom BALCS carriers done for our current deployment and Beez was painless to work with. They have some odd design features that I wanted to avoid and they let us piecemeal the rig together from what they offer without charging much, if any, additional fees.
