New ACU Construction Available in MultiCam

July 18th, 2016

I have been waiting for this. Finally, someone has introduced the new ACU cut in the MultiCam camouflage pattern. As you know, the Army’s Operational Camouflage Pattern, popularly referred to as Scorpion is restricted to military sales only, while MultiCam is commercially available. But even more important, by the Army’s own patent, we know that MultiCam outperforms OCP.

Available exclusively at TacticalGear.com, the new ACU features all the updates made during the 2015 reinvention, including replacing hook-and-loop pockets with more discreet closures and a roomier upper-sleeve pocket.

    MATBOCK Monday – Jungle LIFT (J-LIFT)

    July 18th, 2016

    Over the next few weeks, we will be featuring the team from MATBOCK during our MATBOCK Monday series. The two founders Zach Steinbock and Sean Matson, have been in the industry for years and continue to find ways to innovate. MATBOCK is a Virginia Beach small business and we are excited to see where this featured series is going to lead us.

    A few weeks ago, I had the opportunity to visit the MATBOCK team and they shared with me a new product that was sitting on their work table (fun fact: the tables in their shop are over 40 years old. They were in Sean’s grandmother’s custom drapery shop), the Jungle LIFT (J-LIFT). The J-LIFT is the latest product to join the family of products in the LIFT System. Developed to enhance the capability of the LIFT System, but also support a South American military unit.


    The Jungle is a tough environment and this litter is equally as tough. Made from neoprene coated nylon, it will not absorb water and strong enough to carry over 400lbs. Additionally, the litter can double as a hammock; however, we would recommend a bug net on the bottom and top. Lastly, the J-LIFT is compatible with the Combat Carbon Poles.


    3.5” Wide x 14 “ Long while stowed
    26” Wide x 78” Long when deployed

    Weight: 1.6lbs (with carrier)
    Weight with poles: 4.1lbs

    Stay Strong Baton Rouge

    July 17th, 2016

    Baton Rouge has had some rough times lately, but the murder of three police officers and the wounding of four more, by persons unknown, is just too much.  


    BRPD and the local community remain in our thoughts and prayers.  May they find peace and heal any division.

    For God’s sake, let’s stay safe out there!

    High Gear Evolution ADAPTIV

    July 17th, 2016

    During last week’s Warrior East, former SEAL and his assistants conducted a couple of combatives demonstrations while wearing Adaptiv suits from LBX Tactical.

    This video featuring Dom and Tony Blauer will give you some background on the High Gear suits which are available through LBX Tactical. While High Gear suits protect the user, they are built in such a way to allow the wearer to feel hits unlike other suits on the market which cocoon the wearer and result in unrealistic training.
