SOCOM Begins Procurement Of Communications Accessory Suite Land

Monday, April 8th, 2019

Over the weekend, the US Army’s Program Management Office for Special Operations Forces Survival, Support and Equipment Services issued two J&As for the purchase of Communications Accessory Suite Land (CASL) components via GSA. CASL was envisioned as a technologically advanced Communications Accessory Suite compatible and interoperable with the Next Generation Handheld (NGHH) radio (and other legacy radio systems), consisting of a Push-To-Talk, high noise Headset (circumaural or in-the-ear) and associated cables.

Specifically, SOCOM plans to purchase the Ops-Core AMP Communications Headset, Invisio X5 Headset and V60 PTT.

Although, both components of the system were selected almost a year ago, there were apparently software issues which needed to be worked out with SOF radio manufacturer Harris Corp, before fielding could begin.

Global Ordnance LLC Acquires Chemring Military Products Inc

Monday, April 8th, 2019

Global Ordnance LLC (“Global Ordnance”) announced it has completed the acquisition (“Acquisition”) of Chemring Military Products Inc. (“CMP”), a subsidiary company of Chemring Group PLC.

Global Ordnance is a veteran-owned small business that responds to the needs arising from critical missions of the US Government and its allies around the world. Since its inception in 2013, Global Ordnance has earned a reputation as a trusted and reliable partner of its customers, to include the US Special Operations Command and the US Army.

CMP procures and delivers worldwide US-standard and non-standard ammunition and weapons systems. In FY2018, CMP generated revenues exceeding $111M with an operating profit of $10.5M.

Both Global Ordnance and CMP have been long-time suppliers of non-standard ammunition (NSA) and non-standard weapons (NSW) to US and foreign government entities. Today’s acquisition of CMP by Global Ordnance marks the synergy of two well-established organizations with complementary strengths and expertise. By absorbing the staff and contracts of CMP into its organization, Global Ordnance aims to improve its already stellar reputation as a reliable and dependable US Government business partner and a leading supplier of NSA and NSW. On a larger scale as a result of this purchase, the focus for Global Ordnance going forward remains on providing unmatched service and products to its current customers.

While today’s Acquisition magnifies the depth and breadth of an already strong NSA/NSW team and places Global Ordnance atop the NSA/NSW partner spectrum, it also allows Global Ordnance to broaden the extent of activities in the commercial space which the company entered in earnest within the last two years. Since then, Global Ordnance has become an exclusive US distributor of already established brands, such as Grand Power of Slovakia and Australian Outback Ammunition of Australia. The company plans to continue growing its presence and strengthening its competitive impact in the commercial US market.

FirstSpear Friday Focus – OEM Partner Series, Triad Tactical Rifle Forend Wrap

Friday, April 5th, 2019

Today’s Friday Focus marks yet another installment in the FirstSpear OEM Partner series, where we take a look at one of FirstSpear’s Industry OEM partners and one of the products FirstSpear manufacturers for them. We revisit Triad Tactical and their Rifle Forend Wrap.

Constructed with a low profile loop bonded to a rubberized hypalon provides an exceptional amount of traction, friction, and padding on the foreend of any rifle. The RFW is non-slip, providing extra grip in your hand, even when wet. When held against a hard material like a barricade, wall, tree or rock, the RFW reduces movement when shooting, allowing for better shot placement and follow-up shots.

The RFW is made of a rubberized material that is bonded to the soft/loop side of Velcro. The wraps can be mounted using the strips of sticky backed Velcro (provided) or with the shoelace option(the small size is Velcro only, no shoelace option). The RFW can also be trimmed by the user to create cut-outs for bipod studs, pic rail etc.

Designed by Triad Tactical and Made in the USA with USA Materials by FirstSpear.
