It’s a MultiCam baby carrier. I wish these guys luck with this one. Another company created some prototypes but the liability insurance was too much to make it cost effective.
Coming soon.

Thursday, February 5th, 2015What Was The Deal With Pats Coach Bill Belichick’s Pre Super Bowl Tshirt?
Wednesday, February 4th, 2015Prior to Sunday’s Super Bowl XLIX, New England Patriots coach Bill Belichick was spotted wearing an interesting shirt. The snake on the back, poised to strike, was somewhat reminiscent of Gadsden’s Don’t Tread On Me symbology but it wasn’t all there.
Turns out, that wasn’t half wrong. The image was from the Dynamis Alliance DTOM Tshirt. The image was created by tattoo artist Joey Nobody and former SEAL and Dynamis frontman Dom Raso is a dyed in the wool Patriots fan. That’s where it came from.

SHOT Show – Yeti Tank
Thursday, January 29th, 2015
Down in the bowls of the basement at SHOT Show are some of the coolest products on the show floor. On the third day, I ran across a very packed Yeti booth. So packed, that I couldn’t get a photo of anything. These coolers are popular! They’ve got several new items coming but I thought the readers of SSD might appreciate the Tank.
Offered in 45 and 85 sizes, the Ice Blue is currently in stock with white and Desert Tan coming in April. The larger 85 model will accommodate up to 60 longnecks, 96 cans, 1 keg, 51 blue crabs, 24 mullet & menhaden, 98 slices of watermelon, 20 gallons of trash can punch, or 2 bushels of oysters. Yeti also offers insulated lids for transport, storage, keeping everything cooler longer or as a place to plop down around a campfire.
SHOT Show – IWOM Outerwear
Thursday, January 29th, 2015Designed for sitting or standing, the Hunting Parka System is a camouflage snuggy. It combines a brushed tricot (for stealth) wind and waterproof outer layer with Thinsulate insulation mid-layer along with a micro fleece inner layer that incorporates SmartSilver antimicrobial.
The system can be stuffed into a bag for travel and storage and worn as a parka complete with hood, integrated facemask and sleeves. A removable long insulated tail protects the legs for periods of inactivity.
SHOT Show – Rivers West
Wednesday, January 28th, 2015As I walk through the endless aisles of SHOT Show, things will grab out at me. This time it was the Shadow Poncho by Rivers West.
This seam-sealed cape design is available in the uninsulated Shadow Poncho model as well as a Sherpa fleece lined version called the Treestand Shadow. Look for interior handwarmer pockets in both and arm slits on the Shadow Poncho.
Available in Widowmaker Shadow Camo only.
ODG Advanced Reconnaissance Chest Rig
Monday, January 26th, 2015Manufactured by the good folks at Grey Ghost Gear, the Orion Design Group Advanced Reconnaissance Chest Rig is a PALS compatible, Modular Chest Rig. There’s quite a bit going on with the ODG ARC so we asked them to send us a write up.
We are proud to finally announce the ODG ARC. This design has been on the drawing board for awhile. It was conceived during a winter mobility training package I was invited to attend with an NSW Recce troop in the mountains of Idaho. It was also a collaboration between us and S&S Precision. Drew was instrumental in coming up with the silent closure and building the second article for us.
The ARC is comprised of five pieces. First the heart of the system is the optics pouch. This pouch is capable of holding large framed 10x Binoculars and some small Thermal imagining devices. It is constructed with padding to help protect mission critical optics.
It has an array of features:
Molle webbing on the sides to accommodate pistol mags, multi tools, laser range finders, and kestrel ballistic weather meters.
Fold down admin panel to accommodate GRG, ballistic data cards, maps, and some smart phones.
Elastic webbing to hold pens, chem lights,as well as loose ammo.
Bungie tie downs to hold elk bugle/game calls or remote antennas for personal coms.
Loop panel to accomodate magazine/pistol carriage
The yoke will be offered in two configurations the “Alpha” (Not Shown) will be a slick minimalist yoke constructed in a four way stretch. The “Bravo” (shown) will be a mesh/ MOLLE platform for additional hydration/load carriage capability.
The next component are the side panels which give you the ability to integrate into the optics pouch for a more robust load carrying capability, or the ability to remove the optics pouch and use as a stand alone micro chest rig.
The panels contain internal and external loop placement for endless options for versatility in carrying magazines, radios, and pistols.
Lastly the system offers a small roll top minimalist pack with an internal 32oz hydration sleeve and external hose port.
We are happy to announce that the system will be manufactured by the newest member of the ODG Tribe, Grey Ghost Gear. They are consummate professionals, and the reason this third version came to be a reality. I can’t frankly say enough good things about them. They are great people as well as great professionals and we are thrilled to be working with them. If you are a small company like us and in need of nylon manufacturing capability these are the folks to get it done. I hope everyone had a great SHOT show we certainly did!
