Which Family of Camo Patterns Should The US Army Choose?

Monday, June 10th, 2013

Way back in April 0f 2011 we ran a rather unconventional Camo Design Contest prior to the kickoff of the US Army Camouflage Improvement Effort. During the ensuing two years the Army has downselected to four commercial families of patterns and tested the heck out of them. Since the Secretary of the Army is supposed to announce their selection this Friday in celebration of the Army’s birthday, we thought it would be fun to poll our readers on which pattern they want the Army to choose. This unscientific poll will remain open until Wed evening at 2359Z so that we can announce the winner on Thursday morning, just in case it might sway the Army’s decision. Feel free to vote for your favorite and tell your friends.

PNW Arms needs your help to come up with a better name for one of their mortar systems. It’s the heaviest one in their arsenal, however, it needs a better name. Its sister is called NanoMortar and they are pretty high on that name since it only weighs a little over 12 pounds. To enter, post your proposed name on their Facebook photo.

To attract some good names (and bad ones too) they will be giving away to two things: 200 Rounds of 300BLK Match or 7.62×51 Sniper ammunition and their military patches to the name we choose.

You can still win some ammunition by sharing and liking the Facebook post to attract others who may be better with the written word. This part of the contest will be for a $250 gift certificate to their online store and a secret squirrel military patches to boot.
