Vanguard Combat pants and shirt

Vanguard® combat trousers were designed and made to provide as much freedom of movement as possible without compromising durability. Made from NYCO fabric with Cordura® 500D reinforcements on the knees, these pants will serve soldiers well on any mission. Numerous pockets, including classic hip pockets, zippered front pockets and hook & loop closed pockets on the thighs will fit all your necessities. Pants are complemented with a high-class Direct Action Vanguard Combat shirt. Is designed to work with you and is made from top-quality fabrics; the torso is made of Polartec® PowerDry FR stretch fabric that is not only comfortable next to the skin, but also transfers moisture away from the body. The sleeves are made of NYCO fabric that is durable, yet breathable.

SPITFIRE MKII Plate Carrier

The new SPITFIRE® MK II Plate Carrier version may look simpler, but in fact it is much more scalable and mission configurable. The designers have decided to strip the carrier of unnecessary PALS slots under the flap and on the back as well as enlarging the loop panel on the front for large LE patches, and we’ve also made it lighter than the standard version.

Thanks to numerous new flaps, back panels and cummerbunds users are able to modify and personalise the carrier the way they actually need it.

DYNYCO – brand new fabric

Direct Action will show a completely new material DYNYCO, which will be used to make Vanguard combat pants.

What is DYNYCO? Research & Development Direct Action department has developed a flexible yet robust and lightweight material that will protect the soldier but at the same time adapt to movements on the battlefield.

How was this done? Direct Action labs have started adding elastane to cotton and nylon to reduce the use of stretch material, balance flexibility and give the user the same comfort.

And so Dynamic NYCO, or DYNYCO for short, was born – one of the first flexible NYCO rip-stop material with 49% Nylon 48% Cotton 3% Elastan. From now on, your uniform can be really comfortable and durable.

Ready for the show? Come and visit us at BOOTH 7605 at Level 1. Feel free to drop by on our awesome After Party at 5:00 PM – 21.01.2019.

Machine Gun Announcement from Geissele Automatics and Barrett

January 14th, 2020

North Wales, Pennsylvania – Geissele Automatics is proud to announce their acquisition of the 240LW and 240LWS machine gun technical data package and intellectual property from Barrett Firearms Manufacturing, Inc. Barrett also announced it has entered into a technical support agreement for the 240LW and 240LWS with Geissele.

The 240LW and 240LWS are lighter, more robust versions of the medium machine guns fielded by U.S. and allied forces around the world. The design uses a patented two-piece construction process that simplifies and solidifies the forged receiver without resorting to exotic materials or having to rely on rivets that can loosen.

Bill Geissele, President and Founder of Geissele Automatics, said “The Barrett team has taken the good performing, but dated, M240 weapon system and made it into a machine gun for the 21st century. The 240LW/LWS is improved in every performance aspect: it’s lighter, more reliable, easier to load, easier to maintain, more ergonomic and more controllable. With the addition of Geissele’s forged long life barrels and NanoWeapon (Picatinny DSL) coating we look forward to providing the U.S. warfighter and our allies with 240LW/LWS machine guns.”

Since 2007 Geissele has been serving the U.S. Special Operations community and SOF units world-wide with high performance weapon systems and components. Geissele is also proud to provide these same products to our law enforcement officers and civilian shooters.

Sam Shallenberger, President of Barrett, said “Barrett is the leader in large caliber, long range precision rifles for the most demanding shooters on Earth. Barrett .50 caliber systems have been adopted by the U.S. Military as the US Rifle M107, and the Barrett MRAD has recently been adopted by USSOCOM as the Mark 22. After working with Geissele on other projects for several years, we are confident they are the right organization to maximize the potential of this latest Barrett firearms design.”

Barrett is a family-owned and operated company and the world leader in large-caliber, long-distance, precision rifle design and manufacturing. Barrett products are used by civilians, sport shooters, law enforcement agencies, the United States military and more than 73 State Department approved countries around the world.

Blackhawk Secures Contract to Equip French Army with T-Series L3D Holsters

January 14th, 2020

Level 3 Holsters to be Furnished with Glock 17 Gen5 Pistols

VIRGINIA BEACH, Virginia – January 14, 2020 – Blackhawk, a leader in the law enforcement and military equipment realm for over 20 years, announced today that it will participate in a contract for the French Armament General Directorate to equip newly furnished Glock G17 Gen5 pistols with new T-Series L3D holsters. The French Army recently selected the G17 Gen5 and multiple accessories to be used as their standard handgun and the new equipment, including the Blackhawk T-Series holster, will be distributed to the French troops within the first months of 2020.

As part of the contract, over 75,000 pistols, holsters and related accessories will be provided to the French Army over the next three years. The tender, launched in early March 2019, was open to multiple possible candidates who were asked to submit their entries for review. As part of the try-outs conducted by the French DGA, all equipment was subjected to a series of stringent tests to asses both the reliability and user-friendliness of the offered pistols and their accessories.

“The recent selection by the French Army to pair newly acquired Glock G17 Gen5 pistols with our T-Series L3D holsters is a tremendous validation of the innovation and durability featured in our new duty-rated holsters,” said Josh Waldron, President of Blackhawk. “We are extremely proud and honored to have been chosen by Glock to serve as the holster supplier for this tender. The French Army will be receiving our newest holster system that has been specifically engineered for compatibility with multiple platforms, making it one of the most versatile options available for military and police agencies.”

Developed with a low-friction, dual-density internal material, the T-Series holsters allows for a smooth and effortless draw, while its external design features a proprietary glass reinforced nylon and soft touch polymer lines for the upmost durability. Adding to its versatility, the T-Series L3D holster is standard with three different mounting options. User can select either the S.T.R.I.K.E®/MOLLE Platform, T-Series Duty Belt Loop or Blackhawk drop leg platforms, all featuring the patented Blackhawk Quick Disconnect System. This unique and one-of-a-kind system allows the holster to be quickly and conveniently moved from one platform to another with no tools required.

Designed to follow Blackhawk’s Master Grip Principle, all T-Series holsters have been specifically developed to allow the user’s hand to land naturally where it should in order to deploy the sidearm. This efficient movement pairs with a sound-dampening, low-friction, dual-density internal material that translates into a smooth, quiet draw.

For more information on the new L3D holster from Blackhawk or to view the complete line of T-Series holsters be sure to visit www.blackhawk.com.
