May 19th, 2015
The 3rd Annual Duskin and Stephens Beef and Beer Benefit is this THURSDAY, May 21st at the Pinehurst Fair Barn. If you are in the Fort Bragg area, there is no better way to kick off your Memorial Day weekend than with this event honoring two fallen Green Berets, CW2 Mike and Duskin and SFC Riley Stephens. This is an excellent event run by two active duty Special Forces NCOs. The past events have helped support Army SOF soldiers and their families. This is a family friendly event which, in addition to raising money, also helps connect SOF service members with the local community.

Earlier in the year former teammates and friends of Mike Duskin also hosted a 3 Gun Competition. The match honored four former Special Forces Soldiers who were also competitive shooters and raised money for the Task Force Dagger Foundation. The first place shooter won a Salient Arms Tier 1 Glock 17 which he in turn donated to this year’s Duskin and Stephens Beef and Beer Benefit Silent Auction. Next year the planners of the 3 Gun intend to move the match to May in order to be held closer to the Beef and Beer Benefit.

SOFIC 2015 – Revision’s Kinetic Operations Suit
May 19th, 2015Based on development of USSOCOM’s TALOS program, the Kinetic Operations Suit from Revision Military incorporates a variety of technologies.
Most obvious is the distinctive Armageddon camouflage pattern. The operator wears the Prowler exoskeleton powered by Revision Sharepack. The exoskeleton bears the weight of the system as well as ancillary mission equipment. And can be up armored with XSAPI level plates as well as frag protection on the lower leg. Up top is the Vertical Load Offset System which equates to zero helmet weight born by the operator’s neck. The ballistic helmet is 100% polyethylene with cutout for use with augmented vision systems. The ensemble also includes a scalable armor vest that goes from 18% vital area chest coverage all the way up to 60%.

SOFIC 2015 – VBSS Robot from Helical Robotics / MATBOCK / Kopis Mobile
May 19th, 2015Just when you think you can pin MATBOCK down they do something like this. As former SEALs, the maritime environment is their domain and the necessity of a way to scale the sides of ships was the inspiration for this new VBSS robot. 
MATBOCK teamed with Helical Robotics who holds four patents on robots that can scale vertical obstacles. Then, they worked with hometown team Kopis Mobile to integrate streaming video. the result is a robot that will go right up the side of a ship’s hull to emplace hooks and ladders as well as conduct reconnaissance.

Haley Strategic / G-Code – Incog Shadow Holster
May 19th, 2015
The Incog Shadow is a weapon light capable IWB holster built in collaboration between G-Code and Haley Strategic. The Incog Shadow is offered with both a stand alone single clip system and a dual clip system compatible with Incog mag caddies. Like all Incog holsters, the Shadow is offered with either a camo or Tactical Fuzz laminate. Tactical Fuzz is a “suede like” synthetic laminate which reduces noise during movement, reduces the holster’s reflective signature, and presents a “softer” surface against skin. Tactical Fuzz is offered in Black, Tan, Slage-Blue, and Grey.
The Shadow is being offered for the Glock 17 and 19, H&K VP9, and 4.5″ S&W M&P in 9mm and .40 S&W. The holsters accommodate the SureFire X300 and X300 Ultra Weapon Lights.
