SOTECH’s Newest SOF IFAK Innovation

Monday, May 6th, 2019

At the SOMA conference this week SOTECH will be debuting their newest development in their SOF IFAK line – the Rapid First Aid Pack, along with other new developments of SOTECH’s Tactical Medical Modular Care System Generation II. In its latest iteration, SOTECH took its SOF IFAK (circa 2003), narrowed it to a coffin shape and developed a double flapped rip cord no-look opening system. Thus, the zippered pouch could mount to the lower back for one-handed side access much the same as SOTECH’s Viper Flat IFAK system innovation that is now in use around the world. The double flap provides full enclosure retention, quick access, and the ability to easily access contents or to rip the insert out completely. The pouch can be worn lower back on a riggers belt or padded belt, thigh drop, vest or pack. The internal panel is also set up for speed access while other designs are a morass of elastic loops.

SOTECH will also display improvements to its Medical Assault Combat Belt System allowing for multiple under belt attachments, as well as a new pouch marking system and a new modular medical pouch attachment system. Check out our booth in Charlotte at SOMSA Wednesday and Thursday.

XTech Tactical Expands Partnership with GOA with OEM47 10/30

Friday, May 3rd, 2019

Mesa, AZ

XTech Tactical, one of the fastest growing firearms accessory manufactures, is now shipping its OEM47 10/30 (MSRP $19.95) as an expansion of its “Commufornia Special” magazine line. Like the MAG47 10/30, $1 for each magazine sold off the company’s website will go towards Gun Owners of America to fight for gun rights. The magazines will also ship with a $5 off annual membership offer to Gun Owners of America.

The XTech Tactical “Commufornia Special” offers a field strippable 10rd magazine in a 30rd magazine body. This permits much easy mag changes and insertion into the rifle, while still permitting the user to clean the magazine. The term “Commufornia Special” is intended to remind and encourage the company’s customers to get involved in protecting their rights as firearms owners and supporters of the Constitution.

The OEM 10/30 will not function if its blocker is removed due to its reduced spring, and the magazine is only marked as a 10-round magazine.

About the OEM47 Line:

The OEM47 line is a result of numerous requests from rifle manufactures for XTech Tactical to offer a lower cost AK 7.62×39 magazine option to include with the sale of their rifles. However, the company would not settle for simply making a less expensive option without optimizing the value and its competitive placement in the market. The OEM47 line features an all polymer construction using a proprietary composite blend.

After 9 months of development the polymer permits the 30rd, standard capacity, version of the OEM47 to pass drop tests that more expensive US Made AK magazines will not.

The OEM47 line currently is only available as the OEM47 10/30 with the standard capacity 30rd option soon to follow. The OEM47 line up offers a great value to those looking for magazines for recreational and range use. For those looking for a battle-ready magazine, the MAG47 offers the most advanced US manufactured AK magazine on the market. The MAG47 features the most advanced polymer, stainless steel feedlips and locking lugs, where-as, the OEM47 is an all polymer construction.

Dealers can contact dealers@xtechtactical.com or Zanders Sporting Goods.

TAC-9 – Modular Pistol Caliber Platform introduced by Sol Invictus Arms

Friday, May 3rd, 2019

Melbourne, FL. (May 1, 2019) – SOL INVICTUS ARMS, a premier American firearms manufacturer, is pleased to announce the release of its new TAC-9 – the ultimate modular pistol caliber platform. Introduced to the public for the first time at the NRA Annual Meeting in Indianapolis, Indiana April of 2019 – the TAC-9 was purpose built with adaptability in mind to suit a customer’s needs.

The TAC-9 is an affordable modernized 9MM Sub gun feeding from Glock magazines. It offers a durable and accurate weapon system in a compact yet modular platform. It features a blowback operated system ensuring reliability for the most demanding conditions. It is not another AR – The entire action is housed in the upper receiver and there is no buffer tube needed.

The Sol Invictus Arms TAC-9 was developed for motorcycle patrol officers who are often the first responders to active shootings. Armed with only their sidearm, many officers expressed a need for a compact weapon system that could be stored in their saddlebag and deployed quickly. Using the same ammunition and magazines was a key requirement during the development of the firearm.

At the heart of the TAC-9 is an all steel bolt which works with a standard AR-15 fire control group. This offers superior reliability and maintains the same manual of arms that users are accustomed to, decreasing training time on the new platform.

The TAC-9 is also equipped with a modular quick disconnect barrel system. This enables the user to switch from a pistol configuration to a carbine in minutes and without the need for special tools.

In addition, the TAC-9 also includes an adaptable rear trunnion that allows the customer to use a folding stock or standard AR-15 buffer tube. This makes pistol and carbine brace/stock configurations endless.

The TAC-9 is chambered in 9MM and comes with a 5.5” or 8.5” 4150 Chrome Moly ordnance grade barrel. The barrel, bolt, and steel receiver all feature a Nitrided finish for excellent corrosion and wear resistance.

MSRP:

TAC-9 Pistol Configuration – $705 TAC-9 Pistol w/SBM4 Brace – $824

The National Tactical Medicine Competition Returns to Charlotte

Friday, May 3rd, 2019

National Tactical Medicine Competition

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Special Operations Aid & Rescue, Ltd. (SOARescue)

2 May 2019

The 2019 National Tactical Medicine Competition will be held at the Gaston College Regional Public Safety Training Center just outside of Charlotte in Dallas, North Carolina on Sunday May 5th, hosted by SOARescue. The event will be held just prior to the Special Operations Medical Association Scientific Assembly. In total, 12 two-man teams will compete for the title of 2019 Champions. This year’s competitors come from across North America from California to Pennsylvania and included three international teams.

Each team will be tasked with a grueling 4 stage course that is both mentally and physically challenging. The stages transition the competitors through each of the TCCC/TECC phases of care. Teams are challenged with a variety of skills, from providing care under fire in a hostile environment, to treating casualties with critical care medicine using limited resources. These are the same skills that tactical medics must utilize when they are faced with a wide range of calls/missions, such as a school shooting or evacuation from a far-forward austere setting.

Tactical medics are also challenged with rescue skills, negotiating obstacles or difficult terrain with a casualty. Casualties may have to be hoisted or lowered depending on the situation to move them to a place where they can meet an evacuation asset. The public is welcome to come, and watch teams compete. Spectators can watch teams working through treating various casualties and overcoming the obstacles of challenging scenarios. Teams will be competing from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm on Sunday May 5th.

This competition has been an incredible opportunity for civilian and tactical medical professionals to work together in friendly competition. The training competitors engaged in before the competition has made each competitor a better medical provider and competing allows them to find any weaknesses they may have. We hope to continue and grow this unique competition, to better prepare our responders, and to help the community better understand the services provided. The unfortunate reality of this world hit far too close to home this week. The University of North Carolina at Charlotte was struck by evil, when 6 students were shot, two of which fatally. This is only one example of the many similar situations that strike our nation annually. It is our deepest desire to foster an environment for our nation’s responders to hone their skills, so that if the unfortunate moment comes, they are better prepared.

The 2019 National Tactical Medicine Competition will be an incredible success, thanks to all of our contributing sponsors, role players, patient actors, judging staff, and adjunct facilitators.

Some of our Sponsors are:

-CTOMS

-Qore Performance

-ADS

-Blaze Defense Systems

-Haley Strategic

-Zenith Firearms

-Breachpen

-Condition Grey

-5.11 Tactical

-Lion Apparel

-First Line Technologies
