High Ground and Phokus Research Release New Sling At SHOT Show

Thursday, January 10th, 2013

Ring Sling

High Ground and Phokus Research have come together to solve the two biggest issues that surround your weapon sling.
1) There is not a 2 point sling on the market that allows for ambidextrous firing.
2) There is not a single point sling on the market that allows for weapon retention while going hands on or climbing.

The new Ring Sling allows for all the benefits of a single point sling (weapon manipulation, speed, and ambidextrous use) along with the desired weapon retention associated with a two point. So throw away that tennis ball catch, and give your little brother that 2 point sling you bought because it WAS the best thing on the market. Check out High Ground at SHOT Show in booth #15065 to get your hands on one.

Arc’teryx LEAF Packs – Khyber 50 & 80

Thursday, January 10th, 2013

In addition to the newly introduced Khard packs, Arc’teryx has also introduced a larger Recce class pack called the Khyber. Offered in 50 l and 80 l sizes, they are available in standard LEAF colors of Crocodile and Urban Wolf Grey as well as MultiCam.

Khyber 80

This image should give you a rather rudimentary size comparison for the two models.

Khyber 80 and 50 comparison

Here, Arc’teryx designer Dan Green goes over the philosophy behind this great pack and its little brother the Khard. He says in the video that they started over from scratch and I can attest to the amount of development that went into these new packs. Not only did they put a lot into them but they also had the foresight to not put every feature they could think of into them.

2013 LEAF: KHARD PACK from ARC'TERYX on Vimeo.

These are very lightweight packs with the Khyber 50 weighing in at 1.8 kg / 63 oz and the Khyber 80 at 2.2 kg / 78 oz. This is thanks in part due to the C2 composite construction suspension system which is a simple, yet effective deign that is low on bulk and keeps the pack close to the wearer’s back. Like it’s smaller brother the Khard, this pack is at its core a mountaineering pack and it’s sleek design relies on internal and external lash tabs and daisy chains rather than PALS webbing to attach additional loads. The Khyber also integrates a removable top lid with hydration ports and external compression shelf.

Look for additional coverage of these and other new Arc’teryx LEAF products live from SHOT Show. Full details on the entire line of Arc’teryx LEAF packs is available at leaf.arcteryx.com/Product.aspx?EN/Mens/Packs.
