If you an iPhone 4 user and a reader of SSD, then you are most likely aware that Magpul had previously released an Executive Field Case for the phone. As stylish as it might be, this case lacked the grip enhancing PMAG-style ribs found on the Field Case for the iPhone 3. This new version has rectified this and has incorporated them into the design.

It’s so long Antioch and hello Brentwood for Tactical Command Industries. Effective 27 June, 2011, they are moving from their original business unit opened in 1996 in Antioch, California by Don Medine, a service disabled Police Sergeant and Tactical Team Leader to a new facility at 2150 Elkins Way, Brentwood, California 94513. It will give the company much needed space to expand customer service, production and R&D functions.
According to the company president, “The purchase and acquisition of the new facility for the company in Brentwood, California is exciting, but also delineates the end of part of the company’s history. We started the company in Antioch and we have operated a business unit there since the beginning.†Mr. Medine continued, “Part of my law enforcement career was with the police department in Brentwood, so it seemed quite natural for the company to move there.â€

Snow Peak is well known for their innovative products produced in Titanium. Generally, they are things like sporks and kick ass mugs. Stuff you use while camping. So their newest offering is a bit of a surprise.
Cool right? Now the downer part. These nuggets come directly from their web site:
※ This product is intended to cover and not intended to protect.
※ This product is made of metal that may degrade performance of radio transceiver.
※ Use of this product could result in iPhone 4 being scratched.
Thanks Nick!
