SHOT Show 25 – Shaw Concepts

Tuesday, January 21st, 2025

Unveiled today at SHOT is a new grenade pouch from Shaw Concepts. As yet unnamed, I am calling it the Lethal Universal Grenade Carrier or LUG-C.

In addition to accepting the M67, there’s a slit at the top to accommodate Russian-style grenades.

Additionally, using an insert, the pouch accepts two 40mm rounds.

The jury is still out on the use of snaps for the fastener. There are pros and cons to using other closures. Shaw would love to hear feedback on other preferences.

SHOT Show 25 – Crye Precision

Tuesday, January 21st, 2025

Crye Precision continues to innovate with multiple new garments.

First up is the new Low Burden CBRN Suit which was developed in conjunction with foreign SOF. Due to the ITAR restrictions associated with this garment, it will not be on the Crye website.

Based on the G4 silhouette, the Jacket is available in sizes XSmall – 3XLarge in Short, Regular, Long, and XLong and Pant in 26″ – 46″, Short, Regular, and Long.

Features:

Jacket:

1. Elastic bound hood opening, with interior elastic tunnel

2. Helmet accessible hood adjustment

3. Off-center front zipper opening with low profile Velcro flap

4. G4 style zippered shoulder pockets

5. Adjustable back waist tunnel with Velcro tabs

Interested organizations should contact Crye directly for additional performance tech data.

Next is a version of the G3 uniform in Grey for the British Prison Service which integrates cut resistant panels.

This is the G4 Aviation Field Shirt and Aviation Combat Pant. What’s interesting is the Final Forge Rotary Wing Advanced Tactical Helmet is fitted with a ballistic appliqué.

Crye developed this MultiCam Alpine Uniform for a DoD client. Although it uses the G3 silhouette, the fabric is 100% nylon from their hot weather uniform line.

Much to my joy, the Roll Up Dump Pouch is finally available.

There are a few other goodies coming and I’ll see what else they’ll let me share this week.

A Pack Worthy of Your Fanny

Monday, January 20th, 2025

The Fanny Pack by Raptor Tactical offers a reliable and convenient solution for carrying your essentials in a compact and versatile package. With its durable construction, spacious storage, versatile carrying options, easy accessibility, adjustable strap, and stylish design, this fanny pack is a practical and stylish addition to your gear collection, whether for everyday use, outdoor adventures, or tactical operations.

Raptor Fanny Pack offers low-profile compact transport for daily essentials. Streamlined single-pouch design holds smartphones, cards, keys, and medical aid components. Wears as a sling or around the waist. Based on user requirements we decided to locate a release buckle on the side of the pouch, which gives the user an easy way of fastening and unbuckling the pouch on their waist. The waistband is made of durable webbing that is 1.5″ wide. Additionally, outside of the pouch, we located some webbing straps for attaching carabiners, chemlights, etc. Up front, the pouch is made of elastic fabric, that likes to nicely stretch to carried objects. The back is laid out with 500D Cordura to prevent the pouch from unwanted abrasion.

The Fanny Pack features a sleek and modern design, combining functionality with aesthetics. It is available in various colors and patterns, allowing you to choose the option that suits your personal style or operational needs.

Offered in multiples colors and patterns.

Magpul Announces DAKA Universal Grid Organizer

Thursday, January 16th, 2025

Magpul’s DAKA grid organizers and cases have revolutionized how we carry our firearms and accessories. While they’ve developed 11 DAKA GRID Organizer variants over the last two years which fit 19 different cases on the market, there remain millions of cases that haven’t benefited from the many features of the GRID.

Screenshot

That’s why Magpul created the new DAKA Universal GRID Organizer. A true cut-to-fit GRID, the new Universal GRID fits just about every case out there. They’ve also included DAKA Gear Straps to make sure everything stays in place, and DAKA Blocks can be stacked if necessary for deeper cases.
