Saturday, August 3rd, 2024

Aug. 4, 2024, Pooler, GA –Blue Force Gear, a recognized manufacturer of high-performance tactical equipment, is pleased to announce an exclusive product launch with Primary Arms. PA is a leading online retailer of premium firearms and tactical gear, and together they are pleased to release a limited-edition Vickers Combat Applications Sling (VCAS) in the iconic Chocolate-Chip Camo pattern.

The Chocolate-Chip Camo pattern, originally developed by the United States military in the 1970s, has a rich history in military and tactical operations.

Originally designed for the rocky terrain of the American Southwest, this pattern gained widespread recognition during the Gulf War/ Desert Storm. While its effectiveness in certain environments was later superseded by newer patterns, its legacy as a classic camouflage design endures.

This collaboration brings together the know-how of Primary Arms in providing top-tier service to the market and Blue Force Gear’s commitment to innovation and quality of production. With both companies’ dedication to delivering exceptional products to their customers, this opportunity has become a step in the right direction for uplifting more options to the end users.

This limited-run product is a must-have for collectors and enthusiasts alike.

“We are proud to collaborate with Blue Force Gear on this exclusive release,” said Matt Okun, Director of Merchandising at Primary Arms. “The VCAS Sling is one of the most proven designs on the market, and the new Chocolate-Chip Camo option makes it even more appealing.”

Arc’teryx and Skip Partner to Introduce MO/GO: Revolutionizing Mobility with the World’s First Pair of Powered Pants

Thursday, August 1st, 2024

Vancouver, BC, July 29, 2024 – In a groundbreaking collaboration, Arc’teryx and Skip proudly announce the launch of MO/GO™, the world’s first pair of powered pants designed to make human movement more joyful. Designed to support users to be more active through increasing stamina and reducing pain, MO/GO utilizes wearable robotics to tackle mobility challenges caused by aging, fatigue and injury that limit millions of people’s ability to move through life. This innovative product will be available for reservation starting July 24, 2024, with shipments planned for late 2025.

Founded as a project at Google X and spun out into an independent company in 2023, Skip is dedicated to creating movewear that supports those facing mobility challenges. Skip’s co-founders, Kathryn Zealand and Anna Roumiantseva, both have personal connections to mobility challenges, seeing their loved ones’ universes shrink due to health issues. Skip sought to partner with Arc’teryx’s Advanced Concepts team to create MO/GO, due to the brand’s expertise in apparel innovation and engineering solutions for movement in challenging environments. Led by scientists, engineers, and designers, Arc’teryx’s Advanced Concepts team is dedicated to pushing the boundaries of design and collaboration.

MO/GO is designed to support users in their outdoor recreational activities. Inspired by the mountain goat, one of nature’s best climbers, these powered pants enable users to tackle elevation like never before. The technology provides a 40% boost to the leg muscles on the way up and supports the knees on the way down, using a battery-operated motor connected to a suite of sensors and a computer module that predicts and assists the user’s movements.

Arc’teryx integrated the system within the beloved Gamma Pant for this application, due to its breathability, abrasion-resistance and softshell stretch for active pursuits, and co-created bespoke carbon support structures to spread force from the motor across the leg ensuring comfort during extended periods of hiking. Extensively tested on hiking trails in the US and the Coast Mountains of British Columbia, MO/GO feels like a natural extension of the body, enhancing mobility without drawing attention to itself. This sleek, slimline design sets it far apart from the medicalized devices available to date.

“Arc’teryx was founded on a love for the mountains, and creating products which enable people to push themselves and reach new heights,” said Katie Becker, Chief Creative Officer at Arc’teryx. “When the Skip team reached out with their early MO/GO prototype, we were immediately intrigued. Through extensive testing, prototyping and pushing the boundaries of design, we’ve seen testers get back out in the mountains they love – scaling summits and challenges they thought were lost to them. That’s what it’s all about to us – creating space to share our love of the mountains – and we’re so excited to see the MO/GO out in the world.”

Skip’s Co-Founder, Kathryn Zealand added. “By bringing together Skip’s expertise in artificial intelligence and powered wearable technology and Arc’teryx’s renowned product design and engineering excellence, we’ve created a product that truly transforms the outdoor experience.”

The product will be available for reservation starting July 24, 2024, with shipments expected in late 2025. Media and the public will have the opportunity to test MO/GO at the Arc’teryx Climbing Academy in Squamish in August 2024.

For more information on MO/GO™ and to reserve your pair, visit www.skipwithjoy.com and join us in making the mountains accessible to all.

Introducing the XR2 Ultra, Compact, Lightweight and Rechargeable Weapon Light with Red Aiming Laser

Wednesday, July 31st, 2024

Fountain Valley, CA—SureFire, LLC, manufacturer of the world’s finest—and most innovative—illumination tools and tactical products, is proud to announce the highly capable, easily concealable XR2 weaponlight with visible red or green aiming laser is now shipping in the red laser configuration.

The XR2 is a lightweight, ultra compact, rechargeable handgun weaponlight with aiming laser that boasts an impressive 800 lumens and 15,000 candela. The XR2 is activated with intuitive ambidextrous switches that allow for both momentary-on or constant-on activation. This concealable weaponlight operates on a quick-detach battery, enabling the operator to swap out the power source without removing the XR2 from the host weapon and disturbing the laser’s zero.

With its incorporated red aiming laser (green laser model coming soon), the XR2 allows for faster target acquisition, enabling the operator to engage effectively in high-pressure situations. The 5-milliWatt laser is highly visible in various lighting environments, providing a clear aiming point in even the harshest conditions.

The XR2 is designed for a concealable mid-size handgun with its ultra-lightweight, extremely compact, low-profile design. Its rail mount features four points of contact to ensure an added measure of redundancy and security when mounted to a weapon and will securely attach to most Universal-rail-equipped handguns. The dual recoil-proof LEDs result in a Hybrid beam pattern with significant reach downrange as well as ample spill light, so you can positively ID targets at distance while maintaining situational awareness.

XR2 Features:

• Dual LEDs deliver 800 lumens of intense white light and 15,000 candela shaped in to a Hybrid beam pattern; ideal for positive target identification at short- to medium-range distances, delivering a bright central beam and ample spill light

• Choose between red laser with an output of 5 milliWatts/635 nanometers and green laser with an output of 5 milliWatts/515 nanometers for rapid target acquisition from nonstandard shooting positions

• Compact form factor is ideal for concealment, adding no additional width or length to most mid-sized concealable handguns.

• SureFire’s intuitive and ambidextrous switching provides momentary-on or constant-on activation for virtually foolproof, stress-free instant activation

• Quick-detach, rechargeable lithium polymer battery provides fast and easy battery swaps without removing the XR2 from the host firearm, ideal for prolonged low-light training sessions

• Battery-mounted fuel gauge allows convenient monitoring of charge status; it minimizes your chances of being caught with a dead battery

• Included charging cradle features two charging bays so you can keep charged spare batteries readily at hand

• Weatherproof, sealed gasket to ensure durability in rainy conditions
