Huron Hot Weather Uniform and Boonie in OD Now Available from TYR Tactical

Friday, April 8th, 2016

The Huron Hot Weather Uniform consists of pants, blouse and boonie hat.

The Hot Weather Uniform from TYR Tactical’s Huron line is made from an ultra comfortable 3.6oz 100% ripstop nylon. This fabric feels like you took an old set of jungle fatigues and washed them a bunch of times. TYR initially had the OD fabric but their supply was quickly sold out to a government customer but now it’s back in stock and I can’t wait to get my hands on a set.

In addition to the Ripstop nylon as a base, they use 4-way stretch tweave, poly mesh, and 4-way stretch polyester with X-Static® technology. The materials are also treated with No Fly Zone® and MCS® Blocker, to provide sun protection. Additionally, they’ve added X-Static® for anti-microbial, no odor and no static cling.

Overall there’s plenty of venting built into this fast drying hot weather uniform.

Blouse Features:
• Two Breast Pockets with Ventilation
• Bar Button Front Closure
• Two Zipper Sleeve Pockets
• Waist Cinching Tabs for fit adjustment
• Fully vented back panel

Pant Features:
• Groin, waist band and knees incorporate 4-way stretch tweave for added range of motion, comfort, and abrasion resistance
• Universal Knee Pad Pockets
• Knee Cinching Tabs
• Two Front and Two Rear low profile slash pockets. The bottom of these pockets are constructed with poly mesh for water/debris drainage and airflow.
• Two Cargo Pockets with ventilation. Low profile design allows the pockets to lay flat when not in use
• Bar Button and Velcro® fly closure
• Boot Cuff Velcro® Cinching Tabs
• Internally Sewn, Poly Mesh Boot Gaiter

TYR also offers these Berry compliant uniforms in MultiCam.

Marine South – Ops-Core Updates Skullcrusher

Thursday, April 7th, 2016

I’ve been using the Ops-Core Skullcrusher for many years when I require Night Vision but I don’t need a helmet, for example, while hunting. It’s much more comfortable than the old headsets issued with the PVS-7s and 14s because it is well padded and offers several points of adjustment. Additionally, it incorporates rails at each side and has accommodation for a counterweight.

Recently, they updated the design by no longer molding the shroud plate directly into the Skullcrusher but rather offering a three hole design that will accommodate their mount or three hole mounts from other companies such as Wilcox.

SHIPPING NOW! Magpul Dispatch T-Shirt

Tuesday, April 5th, 2016

 

Now shipping the Magpul “Dispatch Tee” inspired by the WW2 era when electronic communication was unsecure and at times unreliable, using “dispatch riders” was the most effective way to deliver orders, reports and maps between units. These brave riders faced machine gun fire, artillery attacks and hazardous trail conditions, in some cases deep behind enemy lines. An example of what it might have been like is featured in this excerpt from “Adventures of a Dispatch Rider” By British Army Capt. W.H.L. Watson.

“Then came two and a half miles of winding country lanes. They were covered with grease. Every corner was blind. A particularly sharp turn to the right and the dispatch rider rode a couple of hundred yards in front of a battery in action that the Germans were trying to find. A “hairpin” corner round a house followed. This he would take with remarkable skill and alacrity, because at this corner he was always sniped. Into the final straight the dispatch rider rode for all he was worth. It was un-pleasant to find new shell-holes just off the road each time you passed, or, as you came into the straight, to hear the shriek of shrapnel between you and the farm.”

Aside from a compelling story this t-shirt comes in fine cotton which has been designed and engineered from the fiber to finished garment to be the softest, most comfortable, mid-weight T-Shirt available.

Using 100% ring spun cotton and preshrunk, these T’s are constructed with a cut-n-sew pattern exclusive to Magpul. This method of construction features a side seam that controls twisting and torque and is finished off with our own rib collar and custom neck tape.

FEATURES
·100% Ring Spun Cotton
·Designed, Engineered, and Patterned by Magpul
