Rampart Range Day 2017 – Polaris Solutions Ltd
May 30th, 2017
Israeli company Polaris Solutions Ltd produces multispectral, 3D camouflage systems under their Rajuga line. They offer a wide range of different systems, ranging from observation port or sensor covers to full on OPs as seen below (front then rear).
As you can see, the shelter offers a rigid frame to help support the TVC panels and includes cutouts for observation ports.
Different visual camoufiage patterns can be printed on either side of the Thermal Visual Concealment panel and the material also provides protection in the IR spectrum. Additionally, the TVC material offers sun, rain and wind protection and is bery lightweight at .7kg per sq m. It folds or rolls flat for transport and can be individually configured to mimic local terrain, offering a very effective 3D effect which sensors or observors can be concealed under.
The desert patterned system seen above is the Sniper kit. It sits atop a rucksack cover which is also part of the kit.
Polaris Solutions products are available through Rampart.
SureFire Introduces New MasterFire Holster System
May 30th, 2017Fountain Valley, CA—SureFire, LLC, manufacturer of the world’s finest—and most innovative—illumination tools and tactical products, is proud to announce the launch of the all new MASTERFIRE™ Rapid Deploy Holster system. The MASTERFIRE™ is a one-of-a-kind retention holster that uses an open top design to securely retain almost any handgun or handgun configuration, including those with suppressors and red dot sights. A proprietary lug-and-cam system locks the weaponlight and handgun in place with Level III retention.
Unlike most holsters, the MASTERFIRE™ is indexed to the WeaponLight, so it can be used with virtually any handgun with a mounted H-Series SureFire WeaponLight. Its unique light-activation switch can be set to automatically activate the H-Series WeaponLight or laser when the gun is drawn, saving valuable time in high-stress situations and making one-handed manipulations easier.
