S&S Precision Shop Show – S&S Precision ZipFlip

Tuesday, July 10th, 2018

S&S Precision developed the ZipFlip to satisfy a user requirement for a scalable chest mount for ATAK equipped Android devices which could be worn while attached to armor or in a stand-alone configuration, while parachuting or conducting mounted and dismounted operations.

The basic component is a NavBoard which can be used by itself but will also accept a removable soft pouch, sun shade, auxiliary battery pouch and stand alone harness.

The system is PALS compatible via the S&S Precision Tenacious Tab.

The Android device is secured to the NavBoard via a low-profile cinch lock. Additionally, cables and excess cinch lock material can be stored between the NavBoard and soft case.

A removable stand-alone harness is included for operations where Armor is not needed such as admin jumps.

The FlipZip can be secured via a zipper Er with dual slides.

Mission Spec Obtains Rights To Produce Sherpa Mag Pouch For Yeti Wurks

Monday, July 9th, 2018

Mission Spec, LLC has recently obtained the rights to the Sherpa Scorpion Evo III Mag Pouch from Fight and Flight Tactical and will be producing it exclusively for Yeti Wurks.

The Sherpa is a four mag carry solution made specifically for the thicker magazines used by the CZ Scorpion Evo III. The pouch comes standard with both bungee and flap-over-mag Velcro retention options. It can be attached to a plate carrier via the included MALICE clips or worn as a standalone piece of gear in a bandoleer style (strap included and removable).

The Sherpa is 100% manufactured in the United States with US sourced components and is Berry Compliant. Black and Coyote are available at the time of this writing. As production ramps up, other colors/patterns will include MultiCam, Ranger Green, and Kryptek Typhon.

Some reports/reviews indicated that the original Sherpa mag pouch was too tight when inserting the magazine. Mission Spec has slightly edited the design to include more tolerance in the pouch area.

Coming Soon – Teeter Pouch 3 from OV Innovations

Thursday, June 14th, 2018

The Teeter Pouch is a PALS-compatible, bikini-style water bottle carrier from OV Innovations. They’ve got a new version on the way, called the TP3. It is sized for 3 columns and 3 rows of PALS webbing instead of the 4×4 that the original was designed around. It is particularly well suited to 20oz bottles, but it will handle 1 liters without issue.

SKD Tactical – PIG 3L SP (Short Profile) Hydration Carrier

Tuesday, June 5th, 2018

Designed for the Hydrapak Short Profile 3.1L-3.5L (expandable) Hydration Bladder, the ALL-NEW PIG 3L SP HYDRATION CARRIER (SHORT PROFILE) features the same wide mouth zipper opening and bilateral tube routing as the original PIG Hydration Carrier (2L). The proprietary 4″ elastic band adds compression to the bottom of the bladder which serves to counteract the “fat belly” effect as the bladder empties. The bottom of the back panel is made of mesh, to aid in drainage and evaporation of condensation.

As part of the new [SYSTEMA] family of product, this Hydration Carrier not only works with the PIG MK-1 Shoulder Straps, but integrates directly with the PIG BRIG CR (Chest Rig) via the PIG BRIG CR-LB (Load Bearing) Harness. Direct Molle interface is achieved via 4 Short Malice Clips, which are included.
