#GoLoud and Check Out Direct Action Gear at IWA OutDoor Classic 2020

Monday, February 24th, 2020

Direct Action® is a Polish manufacturer specializing in combat gear for LE, military and civilian users. At IWA OutDoor Classic 2020 they’ll be presenting their flagship products as well as brand-new gear to be offered in 2020. Visit them in Hall 9, booth 9-220 and check:

Direct Action® SPITFIRE MK II PLATE CARRIER®

SPITFIRE MK II PLATE CARRIER® may look simpler than the previous version, but in fact, it is much more scalable and mission configurable. We’ve decided to strip down the carrier of unnecessary PALS slots under the flap and on the back as well as to enlarge the loop panel on the front for large LE patches. What’s more – we’ve made it lighter than the standard version. Thanks to numerous new flaps, back panels and cummerbunds you are able to make the carrier the way you actually need it.

Direct Action® VANGUARD COMBAT TROUSERS® and VANGUARD COMBAT SHIRT®

VANGUARD COMBAT TROUSERS® were made specially to provide as much freedom of movement as possible without compromising the durability.

Made of NYCO fabric with Cordura® 500D reinforcements on the knees, these pants will serve you well on any mission. Numerous pockets, including classic hip pockets, zippered front pockets and hook&loop closed pockets on thighs will fit all your necessities. The hook&loop pockets can be used as improvised dump pouches. Hook&loop flaps on leg cuffs and knees allow you to adjust the pants to your needs. Additionally, to provide even more freedom of movement, the pants feature numerous gussets made of 4-way elastic soft shell fabric.

VANGUARD COMBAT SHIRT® is made of top quality fabrics. The torso is made of Polartec® PowerDry FR fabric that is not only pleasant to touch but also stretchable, as well as transfers the moisture away from the body. The sleeves are made of NYCO fabric that is durable, yet breathable. Reinforcements on the elbows, that work as pockets for protective pads, are made of Cordura® 500D fabric. There are additional zippered pockets on shoulders with soft loop panels for personalization.

Direct Action® DYNYCO fabric to be shown at IWA OutDoor Classic 2020

At 2020 IWA OutDoor Classics Direct Action® will show a completely new material – DYNYCO, which will be used to make VANGUARD COMBAT TROUSERS®.

What is DYNYCO? Direct Action® R&D department has developed a flexible yet robust and lightweight material that will protect the soldier but at the same time adapt to movements on the battlefield

How was this done? Direct Action® labs have started to add elastane to cotton and nylon to achieve even greater flexibility while providing the user with the same comfort. And so “Dynamic-NYCO”, or DYNYCO for short, was born – one of the first flexible NYCO rip-stop material with 49% Nylon 48% Cotton 3% Elastane.

Ready for the show? Come and visit Direct Action® crew in Hall 9, booth 9-220.

Nevada Highway Patrol Transitions to SIG SAUER P320

Friday, February 21st, 2020

NEWINGTON, N.H., (February 21, 2020) – SIG SAUER, Inc. is proud to announce the Nevada Highway Patrol has transitioned to the SIG SAUER P320 9mm pistol as their official duty pistol. The Nevada Highway Patrol is a division of the Nevada Department of Public Safety responsible for law enforcement across the entire state of Nevada with over 480 sworn Troopers.

“Our initial transition to the SIG SAUER P320 has been seamless, and our Troopers are impressed with the accuracy and superior performance of the pistol,” said Colonel Daniel Solow, Nevada Highway Patrol. “Our diverse group of Troopers is going to appreciate the custom fit of their P320, and having the ability to choose a grip size based on their personal preference due to the unique modularity that the P320 is known for.”

The P320 pistol is a modular, striker-fired pistol, available in full-size, carry, compact, and subcompact sizing. The serialized trigger group makes the P320 adjustable to multiple calibers, size, and grip options. The P320 is available in 9mm, .357SIG, 40S&W, .45ACP, with a choice of contrast, or SIGLITE Night Sights, and is also available in XSERIES and RXP models that include upgraded features including an optics-cut slide. The intuitive 3-point takedown requires no trigger pull for disassembly, and safety features include a striker safety, disconnect safety, and optional manual safety.

“SIG SAUER is honored to continue our long-standing relationship with the Troopers of the Nevada Highway Patrol through their selection of the P320 as their official duty pistol,” began Tom Jankiewicz, Executive Vice president, Law Enforcement Sales, SIG SAUER, Inc. “We are proud of the positive feedback we have received during their transition to the P320, and with the inclusion of the optics-cut on their slides they have the ability to easily expand the pistols capabilities in the future with the addition of a red dot optic.”

Training Never Stops

Whether you’re a Program Manager, Procurement Specialist, or end user, the key to success is staying ahead of the curve through training and continuing education.

The training courses cut out irrelevant details and are delivered by experts who have firsthand experience.

• Receive course credits
• Learn from subject matter experts
• Walk away with hands-on, scenario-based training

Here are a few examples:

Stop the Bleed: Stop the Bleed is a course designed to educate the public on how to effectively reduce blood loss in an injured patient. Phokus Research Group will cover: identifying different types of bleeding, methods to control bleeds, and how to treat the patient post bleeding control. Any and all skill levels are welcome.

FMT Tactical Athlete Medic Certification: This course introduces the concept of movement therapy and performance enhancement to create simple and effective non-opioid musculoskeletal treatment and selfcare programs for the tactical athlete. Musculoskeletal injuries are one of the leading causes of non-combat related injuries within the Department of Defense. This course is a new paradigm for decreasing Return-to-Duty timelines and increasing force readiness with each athlete and command.

Procurement Strategies: Recent crises all have one thing in common: equipment was needed and FAST! (Equipment that the DoD, military and federal agencies wouldn’t otherwise have.) From Government-Wide Acquisition Contracts (GWAC) and service-specific contracts to tailored solutions, learn how ADS leverages agile and flexible procurement solutions to meet your needs in a time of crisis.

Make sure you get signed up here.

Warrior WEST is open exclusively to active duty military*, federal, state and local government agencies, law enforcement, and first responders. Military and government attendees must present official government-issued identification.

*Registration is not open to retired military or the general public.
