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.

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
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.
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.
The design objective for the Griffin Low-Pro RIGID rails were to provide a slim, ultralight M-LOK rail, with increased rigidity over current similar market options.
“We had been looking at the market for a while and noticed that there were two types of rails essentially. Rails that were beefy and strong, and rails that were slim and unfortunately weaker. We wanted to combine the desirable attributes of both category products into one optimal rail system.”, Austin stated, Primary owner and Lead engineer for Griffin. He went on, “The final design resulted in 70% more rigidity than current similar market slim rails. This is important for those who need to use IR lasers as armed professionals or for hunting. There are a lot of great options now in IR laser aimer products that have solid mounting and solid bodies and we wanted to make a slim rail that provided industry leading point of aim / point of impact for those aimers.”
Low-Pro RIGID rails feature a 7075 aluminum barrel nut which can be installed with the included Griffin Armorers Wrench. The mounting is done with included shims and flat head cap screws for an ultra-flush and low profile mating to the receiver. 17-4 stainless QD flush cups are included which thread into the barrel nut through holes in the rail.
The kits include the Griffin Primo Gas Block, a 416R stainless .750” ID gas block which can be set screwed in place and / or pinned.
Additionally, the rail kits include the Griffin RAIL SHIELD panels as standard equipment. This 4 piece kit provides a 4.6” length surface for heat protection and griping. The user can choose to use the flat bottom panel or angled grip panel for enhanced recoil control.
Available in 8.6”, 10.5”, 13.5”, and 15” lengths.
Rails weigh 5.9 -10.5oz 1.54” wide 1.35” ID.
Features:
Low-Profile M-LOK interface
Internal reinforcement ribs provide increased strength to weight ratio
