Rampart Range Day – Tulmar Safety Systems GALEO

Thursday, May 30th, 2024

We’ve shown you the GALEO life preserver from Canada’s Tulmar Safety Systems in the past.

What we haven’t shown you is what it looks like outside of the carrier.

Providing 40 lbs of positive bouyancy it can be attached to standard plate carriers. Its streamlined low profile shooter’s cut allows unimpeded weapons handling, climbing, rappelling, fast roping, and confined space movement. It can be Re-armed and re-packed in less than five minutes under operational conditions with no tools required.

This and other products shown at Rampart Range Day are available for unit and agency orders in Canada and the US through Rampart.

Rampart Range Day 24 – Tactical Concealment

Thursday, May 30th, 2024

Tactical Concealment is well known for their purpose built ghillie suits and other camouflage systems for snipers and recce troops.

Customers have come to them requesting kits that consist of their platforms along with camouflage materials to build suits from scratch. This can not only save money but allows students in training courses to build suits which is an important part of any curriculum. It also allows one to build to the environment they work in. Their answer is TC BYO for Build Your Own.

You’ll get the same quality materials they use to create concealments at a fraction of the price. Plus, you’ll learn a few things along the way. One of things I like about BYO is that they even include this cardboard form to help you create your own gear. Gluing everything together on a flat surface can result in odd protrusions.

Rampart Range Day 24 – ARA

Tuesday, May 28th, 2024

ARA had the most extraordinary piece of equipment I’ve seen in some time. The Man Portable Adhesive Disruption System is designed to make items inoperable by applying glue to the working parts.

Now, I’m not really a fan of the name. When I first saw it I thought it was a solvent that would make things fall apart and MPADS is close enough to MANPADS that it might confuse some, but I’d say they are definitely on to something.

The system consists of a pack which holds the spayed and 9 canisters for the adhesive, along with some accessories. All told, the load is 33 lbs with 9.0 liters of adhesive per kit which will up to 2 square meters per liter and you can apply about 2 liters per minute.

Whether you’re up to sabotage or making equipment quickly inoperable when you don’t have time to destroy it via other means, this is a great idea. You can disable vehicle controls, weapons, lab equipment, factory components, etc. Its use is really limited by your imagination.

The ARA rep said it might be useful for field expedient repairs of equipment as well. It is a very strong adhesive after all.

Rampart Range Day 24 – Mission First Tactical

Tuesday, May 28th, 2024

Using some leftover material from the production of their ACHRO line of low viz bags, Mission First Tactical decided to make something new.

These aren’t on the website yet but are great as ammunition bags for bulk ammo. I’m using one as a shaving it, but there are loads of things you can do with a durable, zippered pouch.

Made from 1000D nylon Kodra Carbonate a weather and abrasion-resistant fabric.

Colt Canada to Showcase New C8A4 Carbine During This Week’s Rampart Range Day & CANSEC

Tuesday, May 28th, 2024

Colt Canada will be showcasing its C8A4 carbine as the conceptual prototype for the Canadian military’s ‘Canadian Modular Assault Rifle’ program at the upcoming Rampart Range Day on May 28 and the CANSEC 2024 trade show in Ottawa, ON Canada May 29 & 30.

I’m looking forward to seeing this as these guys are very much a dark horse in the small arms field, and consistently punch above their weight, having been selected by the Danish and Dutch armed forces as their principal small arms supplier, UK SF with the L119 family of carbines, as well as other NATO and allied SF and tactical law enforcement agencies worldwide.
