Catoma- 300 Round M240 Pouch
Thursday, February 7th, 2019I stopped by the NDIA SOLIC symposium in DC this week to hear a couple of the panels and ran into the guys from Catoma.
It’s a zippered Pouch with removable molded polymer insert which will accept a 300 round belt of 7.62mm.
The Pouch is part of their Switchblade Heavy Weapon’s Carriage System, currently under evaluation with the 82nd. Although the Switchblade MOLLE Panel will accept three of these pouches, It’s recommended to only use two due to ammunition weight.
The Pouch can also be used on its own to organize belts and features two D rings for use with a sling.
That flap on the right of the photo allows the gunner to fold the first few rounds of the belt over and hold them in place at the ready, so it’s quicker to get the belt into the gun.
ORSS 19 – MATBOCK Introduces Travel Bag Line
Thursday, January 31st, 2019First off, I was surprised to run into MATBOCK at OR, but they had their wares dialed in, with a focus on the Search and Rescue community.
For example, they were displaying their hard bottom Cobra Sled in Rescue colors.
But the new hotness is their Travel Bag Line. Made in the USA, the entire kit of five bags weighs just 7.5 oz thanks to the Ghost Lite construction. These aren’t going to absorb liquid and they’ve even used Kevlar thread and water resistant zippers.
Right now there’s a limited time offer for a set of five bags for $200 from www.matbock.com.
