Things Are Happening at HTC

Sunday, July 7th, 2013

We’ve run across a couple of interesting government procurements of High Threat Concealment gear recently. First we find out through a story in Government Security News that “Customs and Border Protection (CBP) is issuing this Notice of Intent to award as a sole source requirement to High Threat Concealment (HTC), 708 Gum Rock Street, Suite E, Newport News, VA 23606 for Low Profile Systems (both Left and Right handed).”

And then a Sole Source announcement is published on FedBizOpps that NSWG2 intends to purchase “66 ea LOW PROFILE CONCEALMENT SYSTEMs. Standard includes 1 ea dual pistol mag holder, 2 ea M4 Mag Holders, 1 blowout kit, 1 gen 3 radio holder and 1 gen 3 pistol holster,” from HTC.

Looks like quite a few agencies are interested in HTC. Check out this video by Progressive Force Concepts covering their gear.

Introducing the Blue Force Gear M320 Grenade Launcher Holster

Wednesday, April 17th, 2013

The Blue Force Gear Grenade Launcher Holster has already seen over a year of use by combat forces carrying the H&K M320 the current US Army issue 40mm grenade launcher. While the M320 can be attached to an M4 carbine or used in a stand alone mode, the holster was designed for the latter mode of operation. When used as a stand alone, the M320 resembles a rather large caliber pistol with a telescoping buttstock.

As the M320 can make an M4 carbine rather unwieldy, most troops carry it in the standalone mode and have been storing it in a wide variety of field expedient manners including Blue Force Gear medium vertical pouches, SAW mag pouches, in backpacks or dangling via single point sling.

While there are a couple of other holster solutions on the market, BFG took a completely unique approach. It stores and ships flat and when not mounted to your gear and can be disassembled and stored flat in a pack.

M320 Unholstering

The holster is an open top design with an adjustable cross strap allowing for use with any sighting system. A bungee loop can be placed around the grip for additional retention.

The holster mounts to a 3 x 4 MOLLE field and can be mounted on the right side with the grip to the rear or left side with the grip forward.
