FirstSpear Friday Focus: Line One Belts In Stock!

Friday, August 27th, 2021

This week’s Friday Focus, we’ll take a look at a FirstSpear staple item. The line one belt is our most popular everyday belt! Borrowing its name from an old NSW term for the first level of clothing or gear, the Line One Belt has amazing tactical performance that maintains the high level of comfort and mobility usually associated with leather.

“Sizing is perfect, still looks new after almost two years of daily use. Sturdy enough to do everything from CCW to multiple day courses.” —Online Review

“Having used this belt for the last several years, it still looks like new. It remains very stiff, as it was designed, holds up to multiple training days per year, as well as being worn almost every day with a holster and magazine pouch. Not a better EDC belt on the market as far as I am concerned.”

— Online Review

Urethane covered nylon provides superior strength and weather-resistance. This belt won’t crack, peel, or become stiff in frigid temperatures. Specially tempered, non-slip coating eliminates “break-in” time and allows for leather like flex, yet it is impervious to sweat and water and will not stretch or lose its original shape. The Line One Belt is an excellent platform for concealed carry or for just keeping your pants up with style.

Available in Rich Mahogany, Black, Manatee Grey and Tan.

S.O.TECH Delivers 8000 M320A1 Grenade Launcher Weapon Retention Clamps to USMC

Wednesday, August 25th, 2021

S.O.Tech is proud to have worked with the USMC to develop a solution to the difficult challenge of securely retaining the M320. This is a cumbersome device with scope and stock making it sway and shift on the vest. A stable carriage platform that still offers speed draw and field repairability was needed.

The Solution: SOTECH’s weapon clamp was designed to pull the weapon close to the body with the pistol grip angled inward. The clamp uses a plastic insert to grip the frame of the weapon rather than the trigger guard. The clamp is indented on one side and flat on the other side, allowing the weapon to lay flat on the shooter. Detents on both sides would have angle the weapon outward creating sway. Three MOLLE compatible loops provide a stable attachment that pulls the weapon against the shooter.

Quadruple retention with a plastic lined front strap fastened by a side lock buckle common to all military issue rigs pro-vides easy manipulation and security. Stiffened straps keep them from dangling and catching in the action or in the sight mount. The elastic grip retention is anchored for an easy no-look find and manipulation. Its pistol grip loop is rubber grip lined flat elastic for a better hold on the weapon.

And in case of a failure with the plastic clamp, it can be easily removed and replaced, as can the elastic grip strap which can also be tightened if the elastic wears. M320A1 Grenade Launcher Weapon Retention Clamp is patented and has additional patents pending. Available on GSA and through DLA. Government price is $45.60.

RETENTION CLAMP, Right GLRC-RT-CB NSN: 1005-01-691-9293;

RETENTION CLAMP, Left GLRC-LT-CB NSN: 1005-01-691-9289;

RETENTION CLAMP INSERT GLWRCPI NSN: 1005-01-691-9320

Springfield Armory Waterproof Rifle Case

Sunday, August 22nd, 2021

Measuring 54″X10″ the Springfield Armory Waterproof Rifle Case is made from 500D PVC material paired with weathertight water resistant zippers.

Springfield states the Exterior Shell has a Waterproof Rating of IP 67 (immersion up to 1m). They also claim it will float and since it’s lined with removable foam padding, I don’t doubt it. Just to be safe, I’d just count on this rifle bag being weatherproof rather than waterproof, based on the terminology Springfield uses.
