April 24th, 2013Blue Force Gear Unveils PLATEminus at Warrior West
April 24th, 2013Weighing in at just 335 grams, the new PLATEminus™ is the latest component in Blue Force Gear’s growing MOLLEminus line. It’s designed to fit any SAPI/ESAPI style armor plates, with or without plate backers, and is manufactured from BFG’s proprietary ULTRAcomp laminate which incorporates a combination of slots and squares to accommodate as Helium Whisper as well as other PALS-compatible pouches.
Other than the low weight, the key design feature for PLATEminus is that it incorporates a color matched separate plate pocket that’s made from a combination of Tweave and Cordura that accommodates, protects, and camouflages plates and backers. The MOLLEminus construction strategy is already very lightweight but BFG went a step further in their weight reduction strategy by relying on simple 1″ side load stabilization straps. Another interesting feature is that the LMAC shoulder straps can be adapted to the PLATEminus™.
“We designed PLATEminus with simplicity in mind,” said John Felushko, Blue Force Gear’s Product Line Manager. “PLATEminus is simple to put on with single pull forward side straps, simple to customize due to full MOLLE compatibility and simple to size – just buy your SAPI/ESAPI plate size.”
The PLATEminus™ is currently available in MultiCam at OP Tactical and will soon also be offered in Coyote Brown and Urban Wolf.
If you’re attending this week’s Warrior West Expo in San Diego be sure to stop by the BFG to check it out.

TAC-CHALLENGE 2014
April 24th, 2013In early February of this year three long distance shooting enthusiasts came up with the notion to create an event called TAC-CHALLENGE, René Deveault of X-Reload, Sniper Mario Dutil Quebec and Steve St. Louis Web of Webtechgear.
Collectively, the group conceived a long distance shooting event that combined some friendly competition with an opportunity to network with others who share the same passion. This type of an event is not common In the province of Quebec (Canada) like in the United States. After several meetings to develop the concept, the trio decided to expand the team given the scale they wanted to give the event. It was after some time that René Ménard and Mario Fortier joined the team to lend a hand and strengthen the collective.
The event will be held in spring 2014, but why promote a year ahead?
The organizers want to offer to the participants and visitors an adventure they will not forget. All modules for shooting will be handmade and custom, special facilities will be constructed in order to ensure that the course is relevant, challenging and stays on schedule. In May of next year, they will host the first pre-event to test and evaluate everything that is TAC-CHALLENGE 2014.
On the menu of TAC-CHALLENGE include such skills of unknown distance shooting, shooting form unorthodox positions as well as from barricades as well individual and team events. But be sure that, in the meantime, some surprises will be added to the mix as well.
The patch “TAC-CHALLENGE – Veni Vidi Vici” (seen above) was created to raise funds to help TAC-Challenge become a reality in the spring of 2014 in Quebec. The patch is currently in production, we’ll keep you posted when it becomes available for sale.
