Hard Point Equipment Announces The Completion Of Their Restructuring Process

April 23rd, 2016

DSC_6006

Hard Point Equipment is pleased to announce the completion of their restructuring process. Due to the many increasingly difficult challenges associated with effective outsource manufacturing, Hard Point Equipment has at last put forth the effort and necessary capital investment to bring the majority of our production in-house now. This fundamental change means that in the future we will be able to more reliably supply our customers what they need, when they need it, and at a quality level that consistently upholds our ever-stringent standards.

In order to accommodate the added capabilities, however, our product line will be changing in some significant ways as well. The production focus will be shifted away from tactical nylon to high-end shooting enhancements and specialty cutlery, though we will continue producing a few of our core soft goods.

In addition to these, we will also be embarking on some exciting new joint ventures with several well-respected strategic partners.

The first of these is a new ultra-concealable, hard armor system, the “300,” made to our specifications by CATI Armor that utilizes our innovative, patented “carrier-free”, plate harness system. As thin as typical soft armor, but capable of defeating rifle-grade threats, this revolutionary product is likely to forever change the way body armor is worn by the covert operator.

We are exited for what the future holds and look forward to providing you even better products and service than we have in the past!

LBX-4000 Titan 2.0

April 22nd, 2016

In an effort to continue to evolve and expand on our MAP (Mission Adaptive Panel) System line of gear, LBX has teamed up with the Costa Ludus crew once again to develop a 3-Day MAP pack as an update to the popular Titan pack developed by LBTINC and LBX.

The Titan 2.0 houses a full loop interior for various storage load-outs with the use of the LBX hookpouch inserts, along with a padded storage compartment on the back for the safe stowage of a laptop or tablet with dual zipper access.

The update to the pack now allows you to take advantage of the MAP System and attach different panels to the front of the pack via two 3/4” fast clips and loop.

Available now via LBXTactical.com.

Armageddon Gear – Grippy Thing

April 22nd, 2016

The new Grippy Thing from Armageddon Gear will make quick work of stubborn Suppressors and other gear that need a solid grip to remove.

A day at the range will leave your hands sweaty and dirty. Combine that with suppressors that are difficult to remove due to their smooth shapes. The Grippy Thing was designed as a simple solution specifically for this situation.  But hey, you could use it for all kinds of things, like stuck lids on jars.  

Made from Coyote colored Hypalon, it unfolds for use. There’s also a loop that attaches to a pack, belt, or wherever.
