Grey Ghost Gear is now partnering with British firm Karrimor SF and had a few new products on display at OR. This is the Stealth Operator Pack. It’s in he catalog but they haven’t added it to the website yet. It is a very low profile design made from 500D Cordura. Look for a large main compartment with a single center zip pocket that runs the length of the pack. This external pocket contains a built in admin organizer. Additionally, the main compartment contains several internal mesh pockets. There is also a hydration sleeve between the padded back and main compartment. The shoulder straps attach to the pack via D rings to accommodate wider shoulders or use over other equipment.
Standard colors are Coyote and MultiCam. Obviously, this one was made from A-TACS FG. GGG is more than happy to produce this pack in custom runs of other materials and colors. Contact them for more details.
Look for more GGG/Karrimor news during the show.
Cilogear has introduced a signature line of packs. Now you can use the same setup as their sponsored athletes. For example, this is David Gottlieb model. He is a mountain rescue legend and relies on a special model of Cilogear’s 45 Worksack. It’s a combination of woven and non-woven fabrics to produce bomber performance. It’s fucking light and stupidly durable. Can you imagine a pack as light as 1.4 lbs stripped?
US Palm describes this pack –
“With body of a majestic lion and head and wings of an eagle, the Gryphon was bred for its magical qualities. Our new Gryphon EDC Backpack was bred to carry all your stuff. Every day. Like a champ. Get one.”
You can STILL enter through tomorrow!
Let’s face it, the Lightweight Operator Packs from Grey Ghost Gear look great. My kids wore them to last week’s Warrior Expo Week and they spent most of their visit explaining where they got them. Somehow that turned into a rumor that someone was giving them away. Well now they are.
Grey Ghost Gear has had a lot of success with their PenCott pattern packs but they want to know if they should keep making them, or if they should try out a different camouflage, or better yet, both. Grey Ghost wants to know what you think, but they want to hear your opinion on their Facebook page. They value your opinion so much that they are willing to give away a pack a day for three days running. This means that today, they will give away a Badlands, tomorrow a Sandstorm and on Wednesday a Greenzone pack.
To enter, visit www.facebook.com/pages/Grey-Ghost-Gear and Like them. And then tell them that Soldier Systems Daily sent you and which camo patterns they should make packs in.
They will randomly draw a winner from those posts each evening. You don’t have to reenter each day, once is enough, but you can only win once. Void where prohibited.
This is ATS Tactical’s brand new Jumpable RAID II. The prototype has been jumped. It is the same RAID II pack you know and love (same dimensions, same cubic inches at 1512 ci, a little heavier at 3 pounds) except, reinforced and rigged for jumping out of a perfectly good aircraft. Made from 500D Cordura. Regular price on these is $349.99. They’re doing a pre-order sale on ‘em for the next two weeks at $299.00. The first handful of these will be off the production line either tomorrow or Friday.
Slowly but surely, the pack once known as FILBE is making its way to the Fleet. Apparently, MARCORSYSCOM’s Program Manager Infantry Combat Equipment office has been able to take long enough away from making accusations against each other to produce this very informative video on what is now called simple the USMC Pack. It’s almost 30 minutes long so you may need to watch it in bites during breaks.
