This Metclaf Hunting Pack from MR features the new Guide Light frame which is 30% lighter than the NICE frame and is available now.
Starting Spring 2017, you’ll be able to get MR’s great hunting pack line in Desolve Camo which originated in New Zealand. Here, you can see the Bare variant. As you can see, it includes several different elements in the pattern. I’d say, they are going after OptiFade.
So far, only Hunter’s Element, a New Zealand brand, has announced clothing in the pattern.
The Magpul DAKA Pouch is now available in three new colors. Hi-Visibility Yellow and Orange when you need to find it fast and Stealth Grey for subdued carry. ?

It appears that USSOCOM has issued multiple contracts in response to their Broad Agency Announcement issued earlier this year to refine requirements for the next generation SOF helmet. The latest award is to Gentex, and we assume, much of the work to be accomplished by their Ops-Core business unit. The BAA can be seen below.
Ops-Core FAST helmets have been SOCOM issue for many years and the fruits of this contract will be used by Natick to help refine requirements for the next generation SOF helmet.
Contract Award Dollar Amount: $370,365.51 Plus Option CLINs valued at $464,607.00.
The announcement is found at www.FBO.gov as long as they keep it there. Earlier award announcements to others have been deleted.
If you’re looking for an AK Sling, we can’t think of a better option than Blue Force Gear’s Standard AK Sling which includes a Molded Universal Wire Loop threaded onto the front of the sling. The UWL’s nylon coated aircraft grade stainless steel cable allows it to attach to the elongated eyelet on the handguard retainer or gas block quietly and securely.
Fits AK-47, AK-74, or other AKM style rifles with front sling loops. The sling can be instantly lengthened and shortened with no sling tail to get caught or parts to break, allowing for close, secure weapon retention that can be carried all day, but instantly lengthened to be shouldered and fired without removing the weapon or untangling the sling.
As a tribute to the famed Russian “plum” furniture and magazines of the late 1980s, the plum hardware on OD Green and Coyote Brown slings are limited editions. There is also a Black model with standard hardware.
