Blue Force Gear Expands OEM Services Capacity with ULTRAcomp by the Yard, Helium Whisper Licensing, and Textile Laser Cutting

Wednesday, February 22nd, 2023

Pooler, GA – Blue Force Gear®, the leading provider of high-quality tactical gear, is proud to announce expanded capacity for OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) services to include Helium Whisper® licensing and textile laser cutting.

The company is now offering OEM services for its proprietary coated fabric ULTRAcomp®, a proprietary material that is lightweight, abrasion-resistant, hydrophobic, and reduces IR signatures. ULTRAcomp can be used in a variety of applications, including bags, holsters, pouches, and other load-carriage applications. ULTRAcomp is now available to manufacturers looking to create their own products using this innovative material.

In addition to OEM services, Blue Force Gear is also licensing their patented Helium Whisper attachment system, the next generation of MOLLE-compatible attachment. The Helium Whisper system offers a low profile and significant weight savings compared to traditional MOLLE attachments, making it ideal for tactical gear applications. With this licensing agreement, manufacturers can incorporate Helium Whisper into their own products, bringing their customers the benefits of this innovative technology.

Finally, Blue Force Gear now offers textile laser cutting services, using state-of-the-art technology to cut various materials with precision and efficiency, including ULTRAcomp and other high-performance textiles. This new service provides manufacturers with a convenient and cost-effective way to produce their products, reducing lead times and improving overall efficiency.

“We are excited to expand our OEM capacity to allow more manufacturers to have access to ULTRAcomp roll-goods and laser cutting.” said Jay Duncan, Senior Director of Sales for Blue Force Gear. “By offering these services, we provide our customers with a complete solution for all their tactical gear needs, from design and development to production and delivery.”

SIG SAUER Reinstated On Instagram

Tuesday, February 21st, 2023

With no explanation, SIG SAUER’s Instagram account was reinstated after being placed in indefinite suspension on Sunday.

It’s great to see they are back but it would be even better if Meta, the owners of IG and Facebook didn’t go after the firearms industry.

Instagram Suspends SIG SAUER Account

Monday, February 20th, 2023

On 19 February SIG SAUER and their fans on Instagram found this stark message.

No real explanation there; “account integrity and authenticity”? Sounds like they’re grasping at straws.

To further demonstrate how capricious Meta’s decisions are, SIG’s other accounts like SIG Academy are still operational.

While multiple firearms related accounts have recently had content deleted, suffered restrictions, or been suspended outright by IG, this is the first time they’ve take down an entire account for a major manufacturer.

YouTube on the other hand has been on a tear, deleting the accounts of multiple firearms-related accounts.

The Dior collection is a thing of beauty. Mission accomplished.”

Sneak Peek – SIG SAUER ROMEO9T

Thursday, February 16th, 2023

During our SHOT Show coverage there was a Red Dot Optic in the corner of a photo of SIG’s Next Generation Squad Weapons, leading many to ask what it is.

The ROMEO9T from SIG SAUER Electro-Optics is a Red Dot Optic designed specifically to satisfy an operational requirement for use with firearms chambered in .300 BLK. It offers the user the option of two separate zero settings.

These can be used to accommodate sub- and super-sonic ammunition, but could also be used for any situation where loads have different points of impact such as training and operational ammunition. Naturally, it can be used with weapons chambered in other calibers as well.

To accommodate the different points of impact, it features two different reticles (2 MOA Dot or 65 MOA Circle with 2 MOA Dot) with one emitter Red and the other Green. Consequently, there are two sets of windage and elevation adjustment dials.

The ROMEO9T is intended for night shooting, is NVG compatible, and features zero light leakage. Thanks to design and lens coatings, it doesn’t cast energy out the front.

Powered by a single CR123 battery, it features 15 dot brightness settings. Three are for night vision, with 15 daylight intensity settings. Additionally, there is a night vision override setting.

The adjustment buttons include slight protrusions indicating whether the button increases or decreases the intensity of the LED. These tactile adjustment buttons are also found on the ROMEOM17, an RDS designed for use with the Modular Handgun System.

The battery will run for 50,000 hours but there’s an internal battery on the circuit board which offers about another 10 hours and is great for battery swaps.

Above you can see the underside of the 7075 Aluminum housing along with the Mil Std 1913 attachment.

The ROMEO9T has been under development for the past couple of years but was delayed, like so many other projects in industry, due to COVID. However, this optic relies on the US supply chain including lens and circuit boards. That’s right, even the lens is from a domestic source. However, there is a Titanium shroud, but it’s machined here and everything is assembled in Oregon. It’s going to be expensive and will eventually be available commercially but was designed for a very demanding customer and they get first dibs.
