SOTECH Debuts Their Springnose Taser 10/7 Holster, Airborne Cobra and Light Infantry Suspension System

Friday, January 26th, 2024

SOTech will be unveiling an array of new product designs at SHOT Show this year.  We’ve spent the better part of 2023 conducting field tests and interviewing soldiers from the 82nd ABN, Ranger Regt, Special Forces and 25th ID developing our Light Infantry Suspension System, Airborne Cobra Pack, and medical systems.  These tests are culminating in review by the Army over upcoming months.  The LISS supports ensembles including rifleman, medic, leader, SAW gunner, grenadier and breacher which will be on display.  The jumpable arrangement of the Cobra pack and our new series of scrim and ruck covers will also be shown.  Come by booth 20059 to check them out, and if you can’t make it to SHOT, check them out in our catalogs at: sotechtactical.com/pages/catalogs   US Patents and Patents Pending

After dominating the soft-shell market for Axon Tasers for 25 years, SOTECH launches its first plastic holster.  Rather than adopting a pistol holster to a taser, SOTECH designed the Springnose TM around the features and requirements of both a Taser 7 and Taser 10.  We worked closely with LAPD Training Division to absorb their requirements and lessons learned.  We came up with a holster design that encompassed these features:

• Accessed with either strong hand or weekhand draw.

• Slim body design takes minimal space on the belt.

• Downward and rearward draw eliminates accidental weapon misidentification.

• Compressing taser against spring plate and rotating rearward provides quick draw.

• Extra retention strap with thumb snap is removable, and sewn semi rigid.

• Secondary weapon release provided by thumb depression of top hook.

• Officer can screw adjust to forward, vertical, or rearward cant.

• Officer can rearrange holster to right or left-hand wear.

• Field repairable as bottom cap is removable for access to spring compartment.

• Belt clip secures with unique inverted buttons.

• Belt clip fits 2 ¼ patrol belt and inner clip fits dress belts.

• Made in USA and US Patented and Patents Pending.

The Big Frickin Gun Pouch from Shaw Concepts

Sunday, January 21st, 2024

Whether it’s a M240, M249, IAR, M32 or the sort you need to pack out enough to feed it for the duration of your mission / outing. The Big Frickin Gun Pouch (yes inspired by Doom) allows you the versatility to pack out different ammo types easily and then cinch the Shockcord to silence the load from making excessive noise. We also love to use it as a mini buttpack on the back of our belts. If you’re a machine gunner or the sort give it a try.

FirstSpear Friday Focus – FirstSpear Fight Panel is Live!

Introducing the Second Generation of Lindnerhof’s PA Magazine Pouch Series

Monday, January 15th, 2024

LENGGRIES, GERMANY (12 January 2024) – Lindnerhof-Taktik today introduced the second generation of the PA Magazine Pouch Series.

These updated products come with a wide range of enhancements and adjustments to meet current industry standards. Some of the key innovations include a redesigned construction, alpha tabs on all pouches instead of sewn-on pull handles, and the convenience of adjusting or removing the elastic cord strap on the outside of the pouch without disassembling it.

To improve functionality, the back of the pouches now features MX material with laser-cut slots and slim 20mm PALS straps. This not only reduces the weight of the pouches by approximately 5-10%, but also allows easier mounting, especially on reinforced systems like the Curv belts, compared to the previous 25mm strap.

The pouches with an external MOLLE/PALS system for attaching additional pouches (except for PA004 & PA158) have been upgraded with 20mm straps. This change not only reduces weight compared to the previously used 25mm straps, but also creates a more cohesive look when used with modern systems like the LT042/II plate carrier from Lindnerhof.

Additionally, Lindnerhof-Taktik has made some improvements to the color matrix in order to achieve a more attractive appearance. Previously, the 3fb and 5fb flecktarn versions featured single-colored MOLLE/PALS straps, such as stonegrey on the 5fb flecktarn variant. In the second generation of PA Magazine Pouches, the straps have been replaced with camouflage ones that perfectly match the pattern.

The new generation of the PA Magazine Pouch Series offers a variety of models, including magazine pouches and panels for rifles such as the HK417, multi-caliber pouches, as well as magazine pouches for pistols.

The available models are as follows:

• Double Rifle Magazine Pouch PA001/2

• Single Rifle Magazine Pouch PA002/2

• Double Rifle Magazine Panel PA494/2

• Triple Rifle Magazine Panel PA098/2

• Multicaliber Pouch PA119/II

• Single HK417 Magazine Pouch PA091/2

• Double HK417 Magazine Panel PA093/2

• Single Pistol Mag Pouch PA004-1/II

• Double Pistol Mag Pouch PA004-2/II

• Single MP Magazine Pouch PA158/II

Explore the latest products from Lindnerhof Taktik today and enjoy the improved features and modern design.

KOR Technik Debuts New Transport Protection Solution at SHOT Show

Friday, January 12th, 2024

Scottsdale, AZ, U.S. – (JANUARY 11, 2024) – KOR® Technik, known for pioneering and patenting the revolutionary protection solution Vacuum Rigidizing Structure (VRS®), will showcase its latest innovation in transit packaging at the 2024 SHOT Show® presented by the NSSF® from January 23 – 26 at the Caesars Forum in booth #72850. Highlighting the new double-panel VRS system, the KOR Technik display promises enhanced cargo encapsulation for double the protection and security during transportation of high-value contents.

G.P. Searle, founder of KOR Technik, invites attendees and media to experience the company’s transportation solutions featuring two new VRS designs with double panel systems. Searle elaborated, “We have two double systems featuring double panels that safeguard cargo by molding, conforming, and completely encapsulating it. One is a one-piece, fold-over type design, while the other incorporates a stacking system of individual panels. Regardless of what you’re transporting, the two-panel options elevate the level of protection.”

Under the tagline, “One Case, Countless Missions,” KOR Technik aims to demonstrate the advantages of VRS technology inside Zarges USA aluminum cases. During SHOT Show, KOR Technik will showcase the benefits of VRS technology in Zarges aluminum cases, emphasizing their state-of-the-art design as the preferred choice for transporting high-value objects. Searle expressed pride in presenting their foam replacement system within Zarges cases, stating, “Zarges’ aluminum cases are known for their exceptional performance attributes. Combined with KOR’s double VRS protection panels, they signify the cutting-edge development in reusable packaging for securely transporting valuable items.”

In booth #72850, three of Zarges’ most popular and versatile K470 flagship cases will be equipped with KOR VRS panels in Zarges x KOR Technik Kits. “Uniting the outer protection of Zarges’ aluminum cases with KOR VRS technology offers travelers, hunters, competitive shooters, and operators a reliable and repeatable protection solution that is endlessly reusable, ready for new gear in minutes, lighter weight, and more cost-effective,” he concluded.
