Visitors will see first-hand the latest designs and assortment of concealable, overt and tactical carriers second to none in the industry. These include the:

• American Revolution Concealable Carrier – Provides maximum comfort, breathe-ability and durability. It features low-profile shoulder padding, moisture-wicking and anti-microbial material, patented Easy Grip Side Straps™ for quick donning/doffing, and is available with a fitted female carrier.

• Fearless Concealable Carrier – This premium covert armor solution features a proprietary yoke design which offers comfort and concealment by masking the armor profile typically seen through the wearer’s shirt. The yoke also increases adjustability and load distribution of the ballistic armor panels.

• Traverse Overt Patrol Carrier – Easily converts from a concealable soft armor into a front zip-side opening system. This vest offers both MOLLE and Dress configurations along with optional features to meet departmental requirements. It is available in either a LEGACY or new BRAVO configuration.

• Hard Core PT Carrier – A low-profile option that is adjustable in both the shoulders and waist. The vest features AE’s Dynamic Cummerbund System allowing the user to breathe and move much more efficiently. Shoulder strap geometry features enhanced ergonomics and communication channeling.

• Lighthawk XT 3.0 – Now built on the widely accepted SPEAR BALCS ballistic cut, the vest provides ample coverage while maintaining a more aggressive architecture. Improved carrier technology includes an MRM Vent System, upgraded Advanced Shoulder Pads, and interchangeable cummerbund system with quick release options.

• The Fearless Tactical Carrier – This adaptable and fully adjustable plate carrier provides optimal coverage without sacrificing mobility. Armor compartments can hold multiple size rifle plates and soft armor inserts. The vest features a 4-point, quick-release system that instantly drops the carrier, for reassembly in seconds.

• Special Assignment Unit (SAU) Plate Carrier – The streamlined, lightweight and modular SAU is available in MOLLE or Laser Cut configuration and features a Quad Ventilation Liner (QVL) system, Advanced Shoulder Pads, optional COBRA® Alpha Quick Disconnect Cummerbund, and more.

• The Fearless PC – This state-of-the-art plate carrier system features a laser cut attachment platform and can be customized with either the TUBES® or COBRA® Alpha quick release Dynamic Cummerbund systems with accessory sleeves, so the wearer can kit out just the way their mission requires.

New for 2019 – Kinetic Development Group updates the SCAR MREX M-Lok System

January 18th, 2019

The SCAR MREX (Modular Receiver Extension) has successfully served the shooting community and Special Operations units in combat for over four years. The MREX has made the SCAR 16 and 17 a more versatile modular platform, accommodating a variety of accessories with M-Lok, direct mount, and picatinny mounting options. The MREX greatly improves the shooting ergonomics and balance of the SCAR rifle. Over the years, KDG, creator of the MREX, has been listening to the needs of both commercial and military customers, tallying the most important desired features to incorporate into the MREX MKII.

Kinetic Development Group is proud to release the SCAR MREX MKII. There are a few obvious differences / updates from the original MREX. M-Lok slots are present in more locations than the previous model, spanning the entire length of the MREX MKII. M-Lok has been added to the 2 o’clock and 10 o’clock position as a new mounting location and shield from the gas block. The MKII has the desired step down forward of the front folding sight like the MREX, but no picatinny. The traditional picatinny in this 12 o’clock position has been replaced with M-Lok slots allowing for more mounting options. The MKII will be offered in three different lengths instead of two. The lengths available will be the MKII 6.5, 4.25, and 2.2. These designations signify the length the MREX MKII extends (in inches) beyond the SCAR upper receiver. The 6.5” length is the ideal full size rail extension, same as its predecessor (MREX M-Lok 6.5). We have updated the MREX M-Lok 4.9 (Mid-length) to an overall length of 4.25” to accommodate the needs of issued rifle users. This length is ideal for use on a SCAR MK17 with a 13” barrel and issued FNH suppressor. Finally, the MKII 2.2 is ideal for use with a SCAR 16 10” SBR configurations, or any SCAR user looking to add M-Lok to their rifle without having a rail that extends beyond the gas block. All versions of the SCAR MREX MKII will be available in Type III hard coat anodized black and Magpul Flat Dark Earth Cerakote.

Like the original MREX there is no weight penalty by adding the MREX MK II to your SCAR. The MKII rails are easier to install with less hardware in unnecessary locations. Like the original MREX, once installed on your barrel assembly, the MREX MKII can stay attached to the barrel, allowing easier change to configuration.

MREX MKII will be available March 2019 from kineticdg.com and Kinetic Development Group’s loyal dealers and distributors. If you are attending Shot Show 2019, please visit KDG at booth 3166 to see the new MREX MKII. For more information, visit kineticdg.com/mrex-mkii or email at info@kineticdg.com

MultiCam to Highlight Strategic Partnerships at 2019 SHOT Show

January 18th, 2019

Brooklyn, NY – MultiCam®, the combat-proven, complete family of concealment solutions for those who demand the best, has announced that it will be highlighting some of their major strategic partnerships, to include Cerakote, IMP Anodizing, Index Fasteners and Flexfit®, at their MultiCam® Alpine vinyl wrapped booth (#32408) at the 2019 SHOT Show, in Las Vegas, held January 22nd-25th.

Throughout the show, Cerakote and MultiCam® will be unveiling their upcoming 2019 partnership plans. Cerakote, the industry leader in thin-film ceramic coatings that caters heavily to the gun decoration market, has been working closely with MultiCam, to develop a library of approved colors and stencil kits for each of the variants of the MultiCam patterns. To highlight the progress, three Noveske rifles, which will be part of the Crye Precision Charity Auction, will be on display at the booth.

IMP Anodizing is the official anodizer for aluminum in MultiCam®, using a process called Permodize®. The agreement between the two companies is structured so that OEM’s are able to have their products, (rails, uppers, lowers, knives, multi-tools, lights, etc.) anodized in the internationally popular pattern at IMP. To showcase the work, MultiCam® will have Gerber’s 06 Auto, Covert Auto and Mini Covert Auto knives in the anodized MultiCam® and the upcoming MultiCam® Arid patterns on display at their booth.

MultiCam®’s strategic fabric partner, 1947 LLC, will be debuting 19 new fabrics this year. The range of fabrics expands the already large offering from 1947, and will give even more options for apparel and gear manufacturers to create quality MultiCam products.

Flexfit®, one of the world’s largest manufacturer of custom, private label headwear, will be expanding their MultiCam offering on their leading Flexfit® and Snapback styles. In addition to the highly popular MultiCam and MultiCam Black styles, samples of the upcoming Alpine and Tropic hats will be on display. Flexfit representatives will also be available to answer any questions. In addition, the company will be accepting $20 donations for their adjustable MultiCam® Black mesh hats.

MultiCam® is also showcasing their partnership with Index Fasteners Inc, a leader in the Wholesale Fastener Industry to serve as the only kydex supplier to be licensed to print MultiCam® onto kydex for the holster/sheath markets. MultiCam® and MultiCam® Black holsters; mag pouches and sheaths from ANR Design will be on display during the show.

In addition to the booth display, attendees will also be able to contribute to their favorite military charities through the annual Crye Precision Charity Auction, which will be hosted at the MultiCam booth. Items up for auction will include: rifles from Noveske and Tikka, and a pistol from Salient Arms International. All proceeds will benefit Special Operations charities.
