DSEi 21 – C2R FAST Chameleon

Tuesday, September 14th, 2021

The Chameleon is C2R FAST’s latest creation. It consists of a Base Carrier seen here which accepts skins in different colors and patterns, allowing you to change the camouflage of your vest without buying a new one.

Here’s an example. In less than a minute, this vest was transitioned to MultiCam Alpine.

Here you can see how it works. The skin features two openings which are stretched around Tegris lips to keep the skin aligned and in place.

If you can think of the pattern, they’ve got it, or can do it.

The Chameleon will be available for order as soon as C2R FAST launches their new website in the next few weeks.

ARKTIS Adds PenCott-GreenZone To Its Roster of Camouflage Patterns

Thursday, August 26th, 2021

“ARKTIS” is a legendary brand name within the UK and northern/western European military and law enforcement sectors. Originally founded in the town of Exeter in Devon by a former Royal Marine officer in 1985, the brand is now owned by Francis Dinsmore Ltd., a 230 year old textile producer in Northern Ireland.

ARKTIS was one of the very first companies that catered specifically to the needs of special operations forces, as well as regular units deployed on specialized operations – such as peacekeeping and patrolling. It could in fact be said that ARKTIS was one of the founding fathers of the revolution in military gear that we have seen develop over the past 25-30 years.

No company or brand survives by resting on its laurels though, and ARKTIS has always been known for innovating and making things that are better made and more attuned to the needs of end-users than standard options. This extends right down to the fabric that ARKTIS constructs its combat garments from. ARKTIS uses a tough, nIR-compliant, 50/50 poly-cotton ripstop fabric that is specially woven, printed, and DWR treated for them by Dinsmore.

Among various solid colors and camouflage patterns, ARKTIS is now manufacturing a range of their garments and headgear in the PenCott-GreenZone pattern. Officially licensed by Hyde Definition Ltd., ARKTIS GreenZone® camo garments are already in use protecting UK Police teams on special rural surveillance operations. A range of GreenZone items can also now be purchased by ARKTIS wholesalers and dealers – and also through the ARKTIS commercial webstore for individual purchasers.

PenCott-GreenZone was developed through years of independent research by Dom Hyde in the UK, and has been successfully proven as an amazingly effective camouflage pattern by users all around the world since its introduction to the market in 2011. The PenCott pattern geometry is so effective because it combines superior shape disruption as well as the illusion of 3D depth through texture matching techniques in a hybrid combination of omnidirectional micro, midi, and macro fractal elements.

TacHacker – Helmet Assault Ghillie

Saturday, July 10th, 2021

TNVC’s Augee Kim recently shared his Helmet Assault Ghillie DIY project on social media. Here it is, in case you missed it.

Recent little project of mine that I’m calling the “Helmet Assault Ghillie,” or “HAG.”

Inspired by WWII-era “net” helmet covers, I wanted a quick and easy way to attach and remove camouflage scrim to a helmet, while still retaining full functionality of critical components like the helmet rails/rail-mounted accessories, Core Survival Hel-Star 6 IFF strobes, external power connectors, retention systems, etc.

The base is a 550 cord net secured to the helmet using shock cord and clipped on to the helmet clips included with the Ops-Core Step-In Visor (the kit actually includes all the needed clips—two long ones for Super High Cut configuration rails as well as two short ones for High Cut/XP configuration rails, I just installed both), to which I used jute twine to tie on manufactured camouflage net as well as cut strips of Multicam mesh material, but you could also tie or tuck any foliage, burlap, or other material to it as well.

The final product gives me full function (including being able to change batteries in the external battery pack by unhooking the back of the HAG) of all my helmet-mounted systems, while, in my opinion, effectively breaking up the outline of the helmet and providing effective (and matching—tacti-fashion is important too) additional camouflage that is non-permanent, and quick and easy to attach and remove.

Thursday, July 1st, 2021

The MCK (Micro Conversion Kit) handgun conversion kit from CAA USA is now available in both TrueTimber Strata (above) and Mossy Oak Bottomland (below) camouflage patterns.

The Mossy Oak and TrueTimber micro conversion kits will be available to the “die-hard shooter” and “avid hunter” on two platforms (Gen 1 and Gen 2)

CAA manufactures one of the most recognizable Glock brace ensembles on the market, all divided into two primary types: the MCK and RONI. While they’re most often associated with Glock brand handguns, they also have Smith & Wesson, Springfield, SIG Sauer, and other options available.

The MCK Mossy Oak is available in two different generations, Gen 1 and Gen 2. Both models are specifically designed with the hunter in mind, and both models are available in the popular Mossy Oak Bottomland pattern.

TrueTimber CEO Rusty Sellars says, “The CAA conversion kits are revolutionary, and we are really thrilled about what they have going on. This is a great opportunity to connect TrueTimber camo to the tactical world and CAA MCK to hunting enthusiasts with such a versatile product that has already proven its worth in so many different applications.”

CAA CEO LTC (Ret.) Mikey Harman advises,

“With TrueTimber’s unmatched dedication to the outdoor community, we at CAA found this partnership to be an absolute win-win. The versatility and modularity of the MCK platform lend themselves extremely well to the ever-growing handgun and PCC handgun markets.

Our success in the tactical, law enforcement, and sports shooting communities make the partnership with TrueTimber the next logical step in the MCK timeline. The MCK comes in 17 color choices including several custom Cerakote models and currently fits 115 handgun types with many more slated for release in the coming months.”
