On the tenth anniversary of the HSP INCOG Holster, Safariland has announced a collaboration for a new production version of the IWB holster called the INCOG X.
This two-piece Boltaron design features a suede exterior for comfort and stability and a deep RDS cut to accommodate all optics. The design will also accept many lights.
They are also introducing updated clips as well as a strut clip option. Although not shown, there is also a direct mount magazine caddy available.
Although the R-Series was soft launched during last year’s SOFIC, it’s big debut is at this year’s SHOT Show.
Using the new JPC-R as its core, the R-Series is a modular and scalable system which is highly configurable. They’ve also worked to balance weight and durability, particularly for the loads carried by the SOF personnel they worked with the develop the system. The other thing the R-Series does is accommodate a wide variety of plates and sizes with one vest.
Another feature of the JPC-R is that the front panel remains a standard size and the rear panel comes in different sizing options to accommodate the wearer’s girth.
This new front panel standardizes the amount of load carriage real estate across your force, regardless of individual stature. This means that smaller troops will be able to carry the same gear as those with wider chests.
Seen above from left to right are the Assault, Jump, and Recce configurations. Below are the various components used to configure different loads.
Exhibiting in the Night Vision Inc, MTEK is exhibiting their new helmet, the STRIKE.
The first thing you’ll notice is that there are no rails. In order to save weight (and bulk) the STRIKE doesn’t have rails. Instead, it incorporates the MonoRail, an adapter for hearing protection.
It also features their Fluxliner retention and pad system as well as a Wilcox shroud.
Ballistically, it offer 3A and fragmentation protection.
