/0 Comments/in , , , /by

The BEARCAT® Ultralight Plate Carrier, a new, well-fitting, ultra-lightweight, and mission-tailorable Plate Carrier from Direct Action. The Bearcat is designed to be fully tailorable and versatile, but with a main platform that weighs only 290 grams.

Bearcat WildWood

Although the Bearcat is designed mainly with Swimmer Cut plates in mind, it will also fit SAPI or Shooter plates. Due to the use of highly stretchable softshell fabric, the plate carrier offers great fitting, no matter what kind of plate cut you choose. The inner velour Velcro® panels are also specifically designed to work well with the COMFORT PAD system of the Spitfire® Plate Carrier.

Other Spitfire accessories, like the CUTAWAY set, flaps and back panels also work well with the Bearcat. That makes this carrier a great choice for those who already have the elements of Spitfire® System, but seek for a lighter platform. For extra versatility, the Bearcat is being launched with a set of its own specifically designed accessories – all designed to compliment the ultra-lightweight of the Bearcat platform. The Bearcat accessory set includes; SKELETONIZED BACK PANEL® and SKELETONIZED PLATE CARRIER FLAP®, as well as the minimalist SKELETONIZED CUMMERBUND SLIM®, and the SKELETONIZED COMMS WINGS SET®.

The BEARCAT Ultralight Plate Carrier and all accessories are available now in PenCott-WildWood camouflage. For full details, visit www.directactiongear.com

The original Dragon Egg® backpack from Direct Action has consistently been one of the company’s best-selling products and has found a home among a wide variety of users – from commuters and hikers, to first responders, law enforcement tactical teams, and military special operations forces.

This new 30-litre capacity version should prove very capable for everyday use as well as being a good 3-day sized patrol pack. Like its predecessor, the Dragon Egg Enlarged® is made from a combination of Cordura® 500D nylon and laser cut laminate.

The main internal compartment features a zippered mesh pocket for small items, and the front compartment includes an internal organizer system for conveniently carrying and locating small tools, personal equipment, and cell phones or radios. The pack also features a back pocket that is padded with protective foam for safely carrying tablets or laptops (up to 15″ size). On the sides are pockets for water bottles or other items that you might want to have quick and easy access too. The pack also features two hydration system pockets to choose from – one internal and one external.

Making the Dragon Egg Enlarged particularly useful for tactical, SAR, and military users is the fact that the pack and the hip/waist belt include sections of laser-cut panels that are compatible with MOLLE / PALS configured pouches. The hip belt can be detached and used separately, or together with a pair of lightweight shoulder straps that are included with the pack.

BREAKING NEWS: PENCOTT® CAMO NYLON GEAR FROM HELIKON-TEX COMING SOON!

/0 Comments/in , , , /by

Helikon-Tex announced a few days ago that all of their current nylon gear (as shown in the 2016 catalogue) will also be available this autumn in PenCott® camouflage patterns!

14242451_1257778354253128_8680220757251858930_o

Also revealed at the MSPO Trade Show this week in Kielce, Poland was the final prototype of their new ‘GUARDIAN’ Chest Rig.

14203164_1259743037389993_7499044589765167804_n

The GUARDIAN appears to follow a fairly classic layout and is designed to be as lightweight as possible, so all pouches are sewn directly onto the rig’s chassis.  The magazine pouches will accept AR, SR and AK magazines and are constructed with built-in ‘lifters’ for use with shorter magazines (such as 10- or 20-rounders).  More details will be released soon, and the final confirmation of colors, camos, price and availability will be announced at IWA in March 2017.

The first prototype of the (then unnamed) chest rig was in fact seen at this year’s IWA in Nuremburg.

REVISION MILITARY SNOWHAWK™ GOGGLE SYSTEM

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Cold climate operations have become an essential tactical focus for militaries around the world, with many dedicating more resources to training in the Arctic and other cold weather regions. This shift has generated a growing demand for gear that can withstand harsh conditions and function in extreme environments.

To that end, Revision Military developed the SnowHawk™ Cold Weather Goggle System in collaboration with Anon Optics, a leader in goggle design for snow sports and a brand owned by Burton Snowboards, the world’s leading snowboard company. The SnowHawk™ is the first-ever fully integrated ballistic goggle and balaclava system offering complete face coverage, superior anti-fog performance, and ballistic protection.

Extensive time, attention, and resources were dedicated to ensure breathability as well as warmth and anti-fogging:

  • Mesh over the mouth and nose directs breath away from the goggle; the dual-pane thermal gasket lens creates an insulated barrier; built-in top and lateral forced-air vents provide constant airflow; and, Revision’s leading OcuMax© Plus coating is applied on the inside of the lens to prevent fogging, plus a hard-coat is on the outside of the lens to resist scratching.
  • The SnowHawk system’s balaclava design utilizes Anon’s Magnetic Facemask Integration (MFI®) technology to seamlessly integrate the goggle and balaclava, ensuring stabilization and seal, with no skin exposed. The system achieves total face and head coverage, but is also intuitively designed for ease of use and swift removal when necessary.

Revision unveiled the SnowHawk™ at SOFIC 2016 and will also be showing the system at the Defence Vehicle Dynamics (DVD) trade show in the UK in September and at AUSA in Washington, D.C. in October.  The demonstrator model is shown in our SnowDrift® camo pattern as market-tester and capability demonstration.
