O P Tactical Inc is proud to bring back the Mayflower Hodge Defense Universal Case in a new version.
Designed by Hodge Defense, built by Mayflower / Velocity Systems. The goal in creating the Universal Case was to provide a discreet solution to carry a fully assembled rifle or other equipment when an innocuous profile is required for transport or trips where you are a stranger in a strange land. The case was born out of common experiences in less than desirable places, complete collaboration between the three companies’ founders and a desire to create a truly universal utility case capable of fulfilling multiple roles for end-users.
As a weapon case, it can hold a 16” barreled AR-15 or similar platform and perfectly accommodates a 10.5” to 12.5” M4, with suppressor attached. For general transport or range use, one end of the 37” x 10” case can be unzipped to accommodate larger weapons. The exterior flap secures with three low-profile adjustable ITW G-hooks and the case can be carried by the sewn in carry handle or the shoulder strap clipped into one of the five attachment points. The shoulder strap utilizes a single piece of 1.5” webbing and doubles as an improvised weapon sling,
The Universal Case exterior is 1050D Cordura, with 500D internally. A 2” x 8” internal pouch on the right side of the case is capable of holding a suppressor, two M4 magazines, long-range camera lens, cleaning kit, or anything else similar in size. There is an 8” x 11” internal document pocket sewn into the center of the case to stow small items, data books, maps, NFA Trusts, or other documents. Two sewn in Velcro loops secure the main contents and along the inside of the top flap, there is a row of PALS webbing. The length of webbing can be used to secure other ancillary items such as bipods, weapon lights, and secondary optics via the two ITW QASM Picatinny RAMP attachment points included. 1/4” closed cell padding offers protection and structure without adding excessive bulk.
The design of the end flaps and the geometry used for the heavy-duty, locking zippers, enables the Universal Case to unzip and convert into a 31” x 37” workstation for extended urban observation operations or range use. In addition to its suitability for common uses, the nondescript design lends itself to transport of many other items without outwardly giving away its contents. Because a hard-sided case is not always practical, the Universal Case is an ideal solution for use in low-visibility SOF or LE operations when transporting elongated items like weapons, collapsible breaching tools, tripods, communications antennas, tripods or lightweight medical litters such as the Matbock S-Lift with Combat Carbon Fiber Poles.
What is the difference between V1 and V2?
With the growing popularity of LPVOs among end users, OPT had Mayflower add a middle strap to the bag, due to billowing created by the larger optics.
As of this posting there will be only one run of these bags.
