Noveske Releases OAF Nation Rifle

September 15th, 2015

Grants Pass Oregon- (September 15, 2015) Premium rifle manufacturer, Noveske Rifleworks, is excited to announce the limited release of a collaboration rifle with OAF Nation. OAF Nation is a veteran advocacy group that often laces important social and political issues (along with current events) with their own style of irreverent humor.

“We’ve wanted to do a collab with an AR company for a while now but there were so many out there that just weren’t the right fit for us. On top of that we would never put our seal on or endorse a product that we haven’t used ourselves. When the opportunity arose for a collab with Noveske I was overwhelmed with pride. I ran a Noveske as a PMC in environments from Shash Darak to Wardak, Afghanistan. Out of all the weapons I put rounds through downrange, the Noveske was the ONLY platform that never once failed on me or the men on my project. Rain, sleet, snow, or sand; it was always ready to go. Could not be happier with how this AR came out and really grateful to Mike Aland and Noveske for making this happen.” Said the founder of OAF Nation.

“Upon hearing about his experiences with our product, it became a special project. Noveske has a rich history of providing rifles to those in harms way, and we take great pride in the reliability and accuracy of our rifles.” Added Mike Aland, CMO at Noveske.

We also teamed up to create a launch video that captures the rifle in an interesting shooting scenario with all of the hallmarks that make up a Noveske rifle combined with some of the sensibilities of the OAF Nation. The launch video can be found here:

The rifle, available in three colors, goes on sale today at noveske.com. Featuring our Gen 1 forged receiver set, 14.5” pinned and welded skinny barrel, and 13.5” NSR hand guard, OAF engraving, and will also ship in a California compliant configuration.

DSEI – TYR Tactical Debuts Huron Hot Weather Uniform

September 15th, 2015

Made of a new 3.6 oz 100% ripstop nylon along with 4-way stretch Tweave, the Huron Hot Weather Uniform consists of Blouse, Pant and Boonie Hat. All-in-all, it’s a pretty straight forward uniform as far as pocket layout goes, which is right on time for hot-wet operations.

Despite assertions by those who’ve never actually seen this uniform, it’s not NYCO. The real magic here is this fabric, which feels like you took an old set of jungle fatigues and washed them over and over. It’s soft, like pajamas. Used in conjunction with a combination of mesh and a lighter liner fabric behind the pockets, they’ve got the weight of this uniform down to 1.8 lbs, a full pound lighter than a NYCO ACU. The fabric also features X-static anti-microbial treatment and a UV blocker as well as No Fly Zone bug protection and MCS Blocker to enhance breathability.

The Blouse incorporates a poly mesh yoke with a fisherman-style vent at the rear.

There are also waist take up tabs like on the Type -1 Jungle Fatigues.

The Pant incorporates a Tweave diamond crotch as well as Tweave capped knees.

The knee pocket will accept passing, if desired.

Additionally, there is a mesh gaiter at the bottom hem that can be removed by the wearer if not needed.

This graphic from TYR shows a good 360 view of the uniform.

The Boonie is an update to an old classic that weighs just 3 oz. As you can see, the boonie integrates a mesh panel for cooling. It also utilizes elastic rather than standard nylon tape for the camouflage.

Offered in MultiCam and OD.

The items will be available for purchase on 1-Oct-15 but government organizations can pre-order now to take advantage of end of year funds.
