This is Polartec’s new Power Wool. It’s a 5.9 oz, no-melt/no-drip gridded fleece. It offers some mechanical stretch and has a great hand (that means it’s cozy). There’s a lighter weight (4.3 oz) fabric as well. It’s fully Berry compliant and would make a great upgrade to the level 2 garments in GEN III ECWCS.

STEAMBOAT SPRINGS, Colorado (September 1,2017) – TALON Grips, Inc. is proud to announce the release of G19 and G17 Gen5 Glock grips. The Gen5 grips are the cumulation of TALON’s extensive experience designing firearm grips.
The evolution of TALON Grips is highlighted with the introduction of the new Gen5 Glock grips. “The absence of finger grooves on the Gen5 Glock resulted in a TALON Grip design that provides comprehensive grip area coverage in a very durable design” said Mike Morris president of TALON Grips. He continued, “Our inhouse design, prototyping, production, and product testing enabled us to move quickly and efficiently from concept to final product. Truly our entire team contributed in the development of this grip.”
TALON Grips drew on their extensive design experience to produce a grip that appears simple yet incorporates the latest design developments. The result is a reliable and stylish grip. Specific grips are available for each backstrap option including no backstrap, the medium backstrap/beavertail, and the large backstrap/beavertail. The variety of grip sizes offered ensures a perfect fit regardless of which backstrap is selected by the user.
Utilizing the latest design and production technologies, TALON Grips produces the most innovative functional grips available. Never resting on what is considered good enough TALON Grips continues to provide superior products that make difference at an affordable price.
“The first TALON Grip was made for a Glock 23 over 8 years ago so the recent creation of our Gen5 grips highlights our continued progression and evolution making perfection even better”, said Mike Morris.

Last year, Point 6 announced a partnership with Cocona to introduce the 37.5 technology into Merino socks.
I’m a huge fan of Merino wool and the 37.5 helps with moisture transfer. Additionally, like Merino, 37.5 is no melt, no drip, relying on activated carbon from coconut shells. It doesn’t hold nasty smells either.
There is a whole range of socks, but one you might want to look at is the 37.5 tactical defender medium mid-calf. I’ll call it the Goldilocks of their line. You can go up or down in features and performance from there, based on your activity, your feet, and the environment.
I’ve been wearing the low, athletic version interspersed with my other Point 6 socks, and like them a lot. All of my Point 6 socks have outlasted other brands.
This week we focus on the all new Long Sleeve Field Shirts from FirstSpear.

All the benefits of wool in an ultra light super comfortable package.
