Inglorious Amateurs – Memorial T-shirt

January 13th, 2015

Available for pre-order through 15 January, these Memorial T-shirts honor those members of the CIA who have laid down their lives in defense of this great nation since 2001. Inglorious Amateurs is donating 100% of the profits from this sale to the CIA Officers Memorial Foundation.

November 25, 2014 marked the 13th anniversary of the Battle of Qala-i-Jangi and the date of the first American killed in what became Operation Enduring Freedom. Johnny Micheal Spann was not only the first American killed in the conflict, but also the first CIA officer killed since 9/11. Since that time the Agency has added a total of 33 stars to the Memorial Wall.

The front of the shirt is an artist rendition of Mi-17 helicopter used by the CIA’s Northern Alliance Liaison Team (NALT) just after 9/11. The back is the Memorial Wall located in the lobby of the Original Headquarters Building, with the most recent 33 stars highlighted in remembrance and accompanied by the wall’s heading “IN HONOR OF THOSE MEMBERS OF THE CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE AGENCY WHO GAVE THEIR LIVES IN THE SERVICE OF THEIR COUNTRY”

ARG Tactical Unveils Four New Products For SHOT Show 2015

January 13th, 2015

New company ARG Tactical has some interesting products to offer at SHOT Show. We’ll be keeping an eye on them.

ARG Tactical Unveils Revolutionary Products at 2015 SHOT Show Conference
Innovative gear that meets the mission

PHOENIX, Jan. 8, 2015 – ARG Tactical LLC, an international leader in tactical and deployment gear distribution, is excited to announce the presentation of breakthrough products from the industry’s premier brands at this year’s SHOT (Shooting, Hunting, and Outdoor Trade) Show Conference held January 20–23 in Las Vegas, Nevada.

As the exclusive distributor for multiple products that are making tactical gear history, stop by our booth to discover how ARG Tactical can improve the efficiency and safety of your mission.

Four New Product Releases that Will Change the Way You Protect the People

1. Malterra Gear – Every single piece of equipment manufactured by Malterra is made in the United States using cutting edge technologies in manufacturing and fabrics. Utilizing new super-materials, tested and true manufacturing procedures like radio-frequency welding, and unwavering American quality control, Malterra offers innovative tactical equipment and bags for today’s battlefield.  ARG is proud to introduce Malterra as their exclusive 2015 SHOT Show distributor.

2. Integrated Components CAM Shroud – ARG is proud to introduce a new helmet shroud from Integrated Components that’s lighter, stronger, and more cost-effective than any other shroud in today’s market. The carbon aluminum mount (CAM) is made of molded carbon fiber and aero-space aluminum. The shroud’s highly durable component construction and unparalleled design ensures a perfect fit with all standard bracket-style NVG (night vision goggle) mounts.

A low-profile design also eliminates snagging on risers during airborne operations, and includes multiple bungee and lanyard mounting options for visor compatibility.

3. Integrated Components CAM (Rhino) Helmet Mount – We’ll also showcase a working prototype of the Integrated Components CAM Rhino helmet mount. The first of its kind, this product marks a new industry standard in NVG mounts. Made of carbon fiber and aluminum, the CAM (Rhino) delivers a greater range of motion than every other product currently available.

Highly stable and efficient, the stronger mount arm and strategically placed pivot point allows you to stow the NVG closer to the front of the helmet for low-profile stowage. Optional arm-release modes for NVG stowage increase usability depending on the individual mission required.

4. 4D Tactical Head Liners– As the master distributor for the full line of 4D Tactical products in 2015, we’re kicking off the year by debuting some of their most exciting products at SHOT, including their life-saving head liners. Based on cutting-edge technology and 20 years of experience developing improved PPE (Personal Protection Equipment) solutions, these helmet liners reduce blunt force trauma to a significant degree that far outscores competing products during military tests.

Founded on 4D Tactical’s design of the original MICH helmet padding, 4D proprietary technology promotes unparalleled protection, stability, and comfort.
