MDM 18 – Arbor Arms Tradesmen SALT Belt System

Wednesday, September 26th, 2018

Arbor Arms is another, small Veteran owned company making their first appearance at Modern Day Marine.

While they are displaying numerous products, we haven’t mentioned their Tradesmen Segmented Adaptive Lasercut Trio (SALT) Belt System before. Like the name says, it’s a three component system, consisting of:

1 the Keeper belt (worn on the pants  with loop Velcro to mate the molle sleeve),

2  the Core Cobra belt (this both holds the Sleeve on and provides base for 1 3/4? belt loop attachments ie; holsters and water wings)

3 the  Sleeve (mates to keeper belt, allows for molle attachment and wraps around  Core Cobra belt)

The Keeper belt, which uses a G-hopk closure, can be worn as the base of the system or stand alone as an every day belt.

Atop the Keeper belt is the Core Cobra belt. It is made from type 13 webbing and an AustriAlpin Cobra Buckle. They also sew in a soft loop for safety lanyards.

Finally is the sleeve which wraps around the Core Cobra belt and made from laser-cut Squadron material. It allows the attachment of PALS equipped pouches but is segmented, so sections can be quickly unwrapped without taking the whole thing apart for rapid load adjustment.

MDM 18 – RE Factor Tactical 40mm Grenade Pouch

Wednesday, September 26th, 2018

Quantico Tactical gave us a sneak peek of a prototype 40mm grenade pouch from RE Factor Tactical. This is a 3D printed model but will be manufactured from high strength polymer.

It will hold three 40mm grenades and incorporates a lip at the top rear of each cup to help retain the grenade in the pouch.

Here, you can see how it works. There’s also a bungee cord to keep the grenade in place with a quick release at the front.

The pouch is also PALS compatible.

No word yet on when these will be released. But you can bet, they’ll be available through Quantico Tactical.

MDM 18 – SureFire XVL2

Wednesday, September 26th, 2018

It’s been talked about for some time, but SureFire is now offering the XLV2 weapon light/laser combination for government sales.

CE5A20C3-647E-4D50-9837-DAE62700F973

There are a lot of features packed in this compact light including a 400 Lumen Maxvision white LED, 300 mW Maxvision IR LED, 850 nm Class IIIb IR laser, and 520 nm Class IIIb Green laser (50 mW).

Designed originally as a pistol light, the XVL2 has already been seen on carbines as well as MP7s, flipped upside down.

D772C047-CEEB-4B84-843D-7AB2C88FD11B

This is a 3v light and the single cell CR123A is accessible by a clockwise quarter turn of the lamp module.

There’s also a special DG coming this light.

SureFire assures me a civilian variant is coming, but they’ve got to get it certified first.

For now, government customers contact SureFire or Quantico Tactical.

MDM 18 – National Molding Tactik Buckle

Tuesday, September 25th, 2018

The Taktik Buckle by National Molding incorporates an anti-break locking system and includes a beaded lanyard pull for disengaging the buckle. The two pieces mate in a way similar to two fists interlocking at the fingers.

The Tactik Buckle is currently available in three sizes (1″, 1.5″
and 4″), but they can be used with one another to reduce size.

MDM 18 – ADS / Phokus Research Group

Tuesday, September 25th, 2018

All innovating, Phokus Research Group has taken the USMC Individual First Aid Kit and broken it down into three modules to make it more effective.

Module One includes those items needed for trauma by every Marine and is in a format to be worn inside the Marine Plate Carrier.

Module Two includes items which should be carried by a Squad but not necessarily by every Marine.

The final Module contains a boo-boo kit, containing items regularly used like band-aids and over-the-counter meds, which Marines carry in their IFAK but would have to break open and dig through in order to use them.

They can do something similar with any kit.

Look for Phokus Research Group in the ADS, Inc booth.
