Beyond Tactical exhibited their PCU lvl 9 shirt and pants at SHOT Show. Based on work completed to produce a specialized combat uniform, the Beyond product is available as a custom fitted item. This example was made from an FR fabric, but they are available in several different fabrics and colors. Contact www.beyondtactical.com for more information. Make sure you ask them about their Travel Shirt which has been in development hell since summer.
Everyone’s doing it, adopting new camo patterns that is. Two new patterns are on their way for the Spanish Army, a Woodland Digital pattern named “Spectrum64K” (seen below) and a Desert/Urban variant purported to look almost identical to UCP. The cut of both versions is almost identical to the ACU.
The ironic thing in all of this is that as soon as the patterns were released by the Army, Spanish troops preparing to deploy to Afghanistan started to run out and purchase MultiCam and US MARPAT uniforms.
Everywhere I went at SHOT Show an A-TACS mannequin was staring me down. This one was in the Danner booth.
Patagonia is going to offer Alpha Green as a color option for their Fall 10 line up. I know it’s a way off but start saving your pennies if you want to put together a more modern version of MARS or just update some of the pieces in the kit you already have.
Ops-Core has engineered a new buckle for their chinstrap in order to improve the grip while wearing gloves. Additionally, the new design in conjunction with a slight change in how it is attached to the webbing will stop webbing material from preventing the buckle to close.
Without a doubt the Mayhem TR from Arc’teryx was the coolest thing I saw at SHOT Show. This pullover hoodie design will make a great addition to the Arc’teryx line…some day.
These new rifles were spotted in the Remington Booth. Thanks to Ryan.
There are some ‘adult’ subtitles in this piece entitled, “Hitler finds out how much the new Bushmaster ACR will cost.” Pure comic genius.
