TNVC Presents the M81 Woodland Collection – Custom and Exclusive Products in a Cold War Classic

Wednesday, February 9th, 2022

February 9th, 2022

TNVC is excited to celebrate the kick-off of our Annual virtual Shooting, Hunting, Outdoors, & Tactical Tele-event (vSHOTT) with the official launch of the TNVC M81 Woodland Collection, a collection of custom and exclusive / specifically selected products and accessories in the classic M81 Woodland Camouflage Pattern.

tnvc.com/shop/category/woodland-collection

M81 Woodland is one of the most prolific and iconic camouflage patterns of the modern era, it was the standard camouflage pattern for all four services before the Global War on Terror. It holds a special place in many people’s hearts, especially veterans, from those who wore starched and creased BDUs with spit shined boots, to those who invented the modern combat uniform with RAID Mods and other mission specific adaptations.

TNVC has partnered with some of the leading companies in the industry, including Ops-Core, OTTE Gear, Tactical Tailor, and others to bring a range of products and support for this Cold War Classic that so many of us were brought up on, and can still be quite effective in many environments.

To launch the M81 Woodland Collection, TNVC has partnered with Ops-Core as the Exclusive Commercial Distributor of Woodland Pattern FAST Helmets, starting with the FAST SF Helmet, based on the USSOCOM SPEAR FTHS (Family of Tactical Head-borne Systems) Ground Ballistic Helmet.

tnvc.com/shop/ops-core-helmet-fast-sf-super-high-cut-ballistic-tnvc-exclusive-m81-woodland

These special TNVC Exclusive FAST SFs have the same durable, hydrodipped finish used on the standard Multicam FAST SF helmet, and have all of the same features of the standard FAST SF/FTHS, including the industry leading Vented Lux Liner and OCC Dial suspension, Skeleton ARC Rails and shims, as well as the 3-Hole Modular Bungee Shroud (MBS) to mount mission critical equipment such as Night Vision Goggles.

M81 Woodland Helmets are currently inbound, and initial orders should ship within 1-2 weeks, with many more on the way in all sizes!

To accompany the M81 FAST SF, we are also re-releasing the TNVC Mohawk Gen. 2 Helmet Counterweight and Accessory System in M81 Woodland, with all three variants (MK 1 Counterweight & Battery Tray, MK 2 ANVIS LPBP and similar, MK 3 L3Harris CWBP and similar) currently available in stock:

Of course, not to be forgotten, included in the M81 Woodland Collection are Nocorium Low-NIR reflectivity NVG vinyl wraps, available not only for a wide variety of goggle systems, including the L3Harris BNVD (AN/PVS-31), as well as for the L3Harris GPNVG Panoramic Night Vision Goggle and TNV/BNVG-M Artemis Binocular Night Vision Goggle, but also for Ops-Core AMPs, and other accessories!

SHOT Show 22 – Blast Proof Soft Cooler by Blackbridge Defense

Monday, January 24th, 2022

We’ve previously mentioned Blackbridge Defense’s weapon mounts during our AUSA coverage. They’ve expanded their offerings with the Blast Proof Soft Cooler which was designed to prevent water bottles from exploding during IED blasts. In addition to up to 30 water bottles, it will also accept MREs, 5 Gallon Jerry Cans and the High Stress Collapsible Water Bag 5 Gallon bladder.

It’s designed to keep ice for up to 56 hours. I took this photo at about 3PM on the last day of SHOT Show in a room that was around 70 Deg F. The ice was still whole and the bag had been opened numerous times during the day to show the interior. Its going to keep your stuff cool. Unfortunately, I didn’t get the opportunity to blow it up.

Blackbridge Defense products are available for agency and unit purchase through ADS, Inc.
