Platatac Smash Guitar Case

November 14th, 2012

Lots of people build gun cases that look like guitar cases but the folks at UK-based Edgar Brothers asked, “what if there was a guitar case that looked like a gun case?” They posed the challenge to Australia’s Platatac and the result is the Smash Guitar Case.

Arc’teryx Veilance Graph Sweater

November 14th, 2012

We haven’t mentioned the Veilance line from Arc’teryx in quite some time. Some consider the LEAF line expensive so an entire collection of clothing designed specifically to be sold through high end men’s stores send some folks howling. That is, unless you can afford it. You can see the difference in quality. The deal is, you have to find it to be able to see for yourself.

The are a lot of cool items in the Veilance line but one thing really stuck out for me that we are missing on the LEAF side; a Merino sweater like the Graph. Available in Black, Boron Grey (shown above) and Ordesa Green (shown below), the Graph combines all of the goodness of a Merino garment with TerraTex nylon stretch panels along the yoke and down the arms for abrasion resistance.

“We are very excited to enter into this relationship with Crye Precision,” said driver and Marine veteran, Mark Llano. “With their commitment to creating high quality tactical gear that keeps our soldiers safe in the field and their dedication to the veterans’ community, Crye Precision
embodies the very ideals that SERKET Racing was founded on: excellence and dedication. I look forward to working with their team and having a good run in the November 18th Formula One support race in Austin, Texas.”

Started by former Marine Mark Llano, and Randy Webb, the SERKET racing team competes with the goal of raising awareness and assistance for those who have honorably served and sacrificed for our country: military veterans and their families. Veteran owned and operated, SERKET Racing is aware of the obstacles that veterans face upon their return home and teams with numerous local, state and national charities to develop and implement innovative programs to assist these veterans and their families in their time of need.

Gregg Thompson, Crye Precision Director said, “We are incredibly proud to join SERKET Racing and the NGT Motorsport race team in this effort. We’ve worked closely with Mark Llano for years to develop and deliver innovation for the warfighter and couldn’t be more excited to continue this tradition of excellence and integrity. Mark and his team are the ideal ambassadors to spread this message of gratitude to these heroes and we are simply glad to be a part of it.”

New from Raven Concealment Systems – ModuLoader Frames

November 13th, 2012

Raven Concealment Systems has just released details on their new ModuLoader Frames. Part of the ModuLoader series, the new Frames are designed to bridge the gap between daily concealed carry gear and more “tactical” load carriage products like the extremely versatile Taco pouches from High Speed Gear, Inc.

Think of them as an adapter that will help you adapt your Tacos and other accessories for use with a standard belt. ModuLoader Frames are available in four sizes and manufactured from the same material that RCS uses for their injection molded belt loops and pancake wings meaning they will provide flexibility for increased comfort.

They will also allow four different ride heights and accommodate five different belt loops for a customized fit and will still link and integrate with many existing Raven Concealment products.

They will begin taking orders on Black Friday (23 November), with RCS promising that orders will ship in time to be under the tree Christmas morning.

Like all RCS products, the ModuLoader Frames are proudly designed and manufactured in the USA, and are covered by their unconditional lifetime warranty.
