Enforce Tac – SIG Optics Exhibits USSOCOM Squad-Variable Power Scope Candidate

March 8th, 2018

SIG Optics had their contender for the USSOCOM Squad-Variable Powered Scope solicitation. It is a 1-6x intended for use out to 600m. It is seen here mounted to a SIG716-G2.

It is a variant of their commercially available Tango 6 optic, with final assembly in their Oregon plant. Additionally, they manufacture the mount there. The optic also comes with a throw lever installed.

Interestingly, it is a second focal plane scope. The contract had a small business set aside for first focal plane submissions, while the second focal plane versions are a full and open competition. If you’re wondering why there’s even a second focal plane option, it’s because the customer wanted the dot to be crisp and visible, even in full daylight.

The optic is a red dot, with a SOCOM-specified reticle. At the intensity setting, you can lock out the dot.

Although they have not made a final decision on naming convention, you will be able to purchase a version of this optic. Options will include tube color, reticle and first or second focal plane.

Enforce Tac 18 – Heckler & Koch Introduce Gen3 Polymer Magazine

March 8th, 2018

Heckler & Kock debuted their new GEN3 Polyner Magazine at Enforce Tac. It is a 5.56mm, 30 round STANAG magazine which is now standard with the HK416 and 433 rifles.

They put quite a bit into the design aesthetic. For instance, the round count window conjures a projectile, moving toward the target.

Speaking of round count windows, there is also a window at the backstrap. The spring has an orange indicator letting you know you are empty.

Grooves for a positive grip extend completely around the magazine’s body, as you can see in this photo of the front aspect.

Here is a view of the feed lips and follower.

It has a removable floor plate.

Made in Germany, the Gen3 PM is available in this RAL8000 shade as well as Black.

Design features will eventually find their way into a 7.62 version as well.

Enforce Tac 18 – MD-Textil Modulares Gurtsystem

March 8th, 2018

Germany-based MD-Textil displayed their Modulares Gurtsystem (English: Modular Belt System) in the TACWRK Booth.

Released last year, MGS makes its first full appearance at Enforce Tac. It is a fully modular and scalable harness system which can be as simple as a first line belt or as extensive as leg and chest harnesses.

We can get into some more technical information in the coming weeks if you guys are interested but there’s a bit of a funny story associated with MGS.

The designer of MGS often gets called Armadillo by friends. The German word for armadillo is Gürteltier or literally, belt animal. Naturally, the armadillo has become the symbol for MGS.
