Gentex’s Ops-Core has added a new photochromatic lens option to their Step-In Visor for their helmets.
Integrated with the helmet, the Step-In Visor sits close to the eye so they can still be worn even when using NODs. Below you can see how the lens darkens when exposed to bright light.

Part of the capabilities set being brought to the US by UK’s Brigantes Equipment, DNS Alpha offers a full complement of next-to-skin to shell garments like this GORE-TEX PYRAD FR and waterproof breathable ensemble.

While elastic-style ammo pouches keep your magazines secure, many people complain that it can be difficult to reinsert them. Agilite went to work on the issue and came up with the Pincer Placard. They developed a new molded mouth that works like a funnel and lined the pouch for easier insertion. Yet, the elastic body still does its job.
They automated the test process of inserting magazines thousands of times in order to check wear on their new pouch. If you haven’t seen their test apparatus in action, be sure to go here.
The founder of DISCO32 spent some time in Long Range Surveillance during his service in the Army and it gives you a bug for communications. He turned it into a full-time business.
His new DISCUS is an inline PTT device which offers a separate circuit for Bluetooth connections so you can monitor comms but also listen to music or audio books, or TAK on cell service when appropriate. Look for more details soon.
My friend Aaron Solich passed me some photos of this AIMPOINT P2 Lens Cover he received from TangoDown.
Here’s what Aaron had to say:
ACRO P-2 arrived today! The other item is a lens guard that I received from friend Jeff Cahill at TangoDown recently. Not only is the optic great but the lens guard is really slick and low profile. It’s machined to slide down over the recessed area that’s around the optic housing just behind the front lens and the set screw on each side screws down into the hole on each side to hold it in place. Material is anodized aluminum and it protects the front lens from impacts of things larger than the guard. Very useful for protecting the front lens if using the optic to rack the slide with something like a barrier, doorframe, etc. A little bit of insurance for the optic that should be available in the near future.
