OTTO Engineering, 20 Meter Diver Headset, and NoizeBarrier® Range SA Tactical Over-The-Ear Headset

OTTO® 20-METER SINGLE EAR and DUAL EAR DIVER HEADSET

Over-the-Head Headset

The 20-Meter Diver headset is the right choice for water rescues, special operations, maritime security operations, underwater repairs, and more.

With Dual Ear or Single Side Headset, OTTO® offers uncompromising water-resistance solutions that function flawlessly at depths of up to 20 meters in fresh or saltwater.  The specially designed larger, over-the-ear rubber speakers and water-resistant microphone have been tested under extreme conditions to ensure the headset will continue to provide clear communications even after multiple dives to as deep as 20 meters of saltwater. The dual-ear headset includes a hard-wired PTT designed to perform at depths up to 20 meters without self-actuating. It is compatible with multiple radio platforms and ideal for all communications needs where water-resistance is a requirement.

Otto has successfully completed multiple tests for extreme depth and harsh conditions.  The 20-meter test conducted on both the Single Ear and Dual Ear headset repeats a dive to 20 meters for several minutes.

The testing includes repeated dives to 20 meters for several minutes and then returning to the surface.  The test includes a significant temperature differential between the headset and the water to ensure that the headset will not leak from the combination of temperature variation and extreme pressure.  This headset is built and will operate through multiple missions.

UTS Systems TM Series Shelters

UTS Systems is a U.S. based, veteran-owned company that provides both modular and expeditionary shelters to today’s Military. The shelter systems provide tactical command posts, base camps, hospitals, and CBRN collectively protected shelter systems.

The UTS TM Series shelters are a durable, robust, man-portable system that is the cornerstone of many military deployments.

The TM shelters range in size from the TM18, the smallest unit, at 190 square feet, to the TXL120, the largest unit, at 1,380 square feet.  Each of these systems requires only a minimal team of 2-6 people to set up. None of the shelters require power, special tools, or even a ladder for complete assembly in less than 10 minutes.  Once assembled, the units enable complexing to create structures, including tactical command posts and hospitals.  All of the shelters include pass-through ports/sleeves on end walls with ECU/cable ducts.

The UTS TM Series shelters incorporate a unique external frame design. Combined with the thermal fly, they provide superior thermal resistance for a 26% reduction in energy consumption over similar size shelters, as tested by the U.S. Air Force Research Lab. The system can achieve a 40-degree temperature difference with one 5-ton ECU supplying two 650 square foot shelters.

UTS systems also transport containers, electrical generators and power boxes, integrated LED lights, complexing/connecting equipment, and litter racks.

The UTS TM series shelter systems are a great solution to quickly setting up your team shelter and getting on with the mission.

Switchblade® Modular Pack System

For years, the Department of Defense has been chasing a “Family of Packs”; a single pack adjustable for the wide variation in mission profiles and load carriage requirements.  Catoma® may be one of the first successful manufacturers to tackle the requirement with its Switchblade® Modular Pack System.  One Frame, Any Fit, Any Load, Any Mission is the mantra for Switchblade® Modular Pack Systems.  The sky is the limit for the Switchblade® System. Catoma® has designed systems for 2, 3, and 4 man teams for mortars and munitions while also creating modular components for weapons, communications, and multi-day sustainment.

The patented Switchblade® frameset is at the heart of the Switchblade® Modular Pack System.  The frameset is a combination of the framesheet, shoulder straps, waist belt, and the frame pad.  The framesheet is built of carbon fiber composite but is adjustable vertically and horizontally.  This individually adjusted frameset can lock into a wide assortment of packs, including various team pack kits.

A great example of a team pack system is the M240 3-man team pack system.  The Gunner Pack Kit includes the Frameset and the Assault Pack.  The Assistant Gunner Pack Kit consists of the frameset, Molle Panel, two 300-Round Pouches, Barrel Quiver, Raid Pack, and Hyrdosleeve. In comparison, the Ammo Bearer Pack Kit includes the Frameset, Molle Panel, two 300-Round Pouches, Raid Pack and Hydrosleeve.

Other individual and team kits include 81MM Mortar Packs, 60MM Mortar, Gustaf Pack, Sniper Pack, a small Raid pack at 45L, and the larger Assault Pack at 60L+.  Don’t forget all of these are using the same frameset that is adjusted to fit you.

 

If you need a truly modular pack system that allows for diverse load carry solutions, you have to consider Catoma Switchblade® Modular Pack System and their options!

The XVL2 Pistol and Carbine Light and Laser Module

The XVL2 isn’t just another weapon light; it is a unique pistol and carbine light and laser module system.  The XVL2 weapon light hit the streets and battlefields at the request of our nation’s finest military and law enforcement service members.  SureFire® has developed this extremely versatile lightweight dual led white light with an infrared illuminator.  It can mount on a pistol or carbine rifle and attaches securely to both Universal and Picatinny accessory rails. Additionally, the XVL2 comes equipped with built-in co-aligned green and infrared lasers.

 

One of the key attributes built into the XVL2 is the high output Max Vision Beam™ of 400-lumens.  The light has a peak beam intensity of 820 candelas out to 54 meters in the face of the adversary!  Another handy gunfighter feature is the integral ambidextrous momentary and constant-on tail cap switch conveniently located for index finger access.  The body of the XVL2 is constructed of mil-spec hard-anodized aluminum and allows battery (123A lithium) changes without removal or re-zeroing of the system.

 

Your unit or agency can equip the XVL2 with a remote pressure switch.  The Remote Switch Pistol, RSP, and Remote Switch Rifle, RSR, offer additional options to activate the light with finger pressure without moving a finger from the grip.

 

The SureFire® name has always developed and delivered top-notch weapon lights and lasers, but they have perfected this accessory.  The XVL2 pistol & carbine light and laser module system is a must.  Every warrior out there should possess one of these.

CQB Stocks Designed for Confined Spaces

By now, many of you are aware of Maxim Defense™ and its offerings.  Maxim Defense™ is a non-traditional U.S. based firearms development company centered on producing better, lighter, and more reliable firearms and accessories that exceed in today’s most extreme environments. Headquartered in St. Cloud, Minnesota, Maxim Defense™ provides research and development and manufacturing superiority for U.S. and NATO military forces, government agencies, and homeland first responders.

 

Depending on your mission or operating environment, Maxim Defense™ has something that can increase your lethality.  They are most well known for their CQB stocks; these stocks are great for operating in confined spaces or limited storage space.  They provide you with the ability to deploy or manipulate your weapon quicker and get on target faster.

 

 

The Gen 6 series stocks are shorter in their collapsed position and extend to standard full-length stock and buffer tube.  The Gen 6 stock has no buttons to push and can be extended by simply pulling the stock.  The buffer tube housing incorporates two quick detach sling swivel locations.

 

The Gen 7 version has the same length of pull and operation as the Gen 6.  But the Gen 7 has a more streamlined design that removes the right and left side quick detach sling swivel locations and incorporates a single ambidextrous quick detach sling swivel location.

 

Most of their compact stocks will require proprietary buffers and buffer springs and even the bolt with some models.

 

However, their Combat Carbine Stock or CCS will work with even your MIL-STD buffer and buffer springs and net you about an inch of length savings.  The main point is if you need a stock that’s easily deployable, that will allow you to work or carry in confined space, be sure to take a look at Maxim Defense’s line of stocks.

 

Maxim Defense™ also makes full up compact weapon systems, many of which operate the same as any standard AR platform in a few different calibers from 5.56, 300 BLK, and even 7.62 x 39.  They also make handguards, rails, and rail covers that are top-notch along with their parts and accessories like their popular HATEBRAKE.  Ultimately, Maxim Defense™ is a “must look” to determine what will work for you and your mission requirements.

Princeton Tec® – Adaptable Lights For The Military

Since 1975, Princeton Tec® has innovated and developed products for everyone from the professional to the outdoor sports enthusiasts. It all started in Princeton, New Jersey, by Bill Stephens, an engineer by day and an entrepreneur by night running his own dive shop.

When Bill’s day job tried to relocate him to Indianapolis, far away from the Atlantic Ocean where he loved to dive, Bill quit and doubled down manufacturing the industry’s first automatic dive timer. This dive timer was the beginning of Princeton Tec.

Over the years, scuba lights began to take over the product line up. Over time, Princeton Tec expanded its lighting solutions to fit the needs of more than just divers. To this day, Princeton Tec is a family-owned and family-run business that develops and manufactures personal lighting systems for military/law enforcement/first responders, industrial, outdoor enthusiasts, and scuba professionals. Princeton Tec® operates its machine shop and injection molding facilities. Most importantly, they have remained an American manufacturer and local employer since the beginning.

Princeton Tec’s tactical illumination line-up is one of the most versatile and innovative in the industry. The solutions engineered provide the right amount of light exactly where you need it, regardless of the mission.

Prater Precision and The Sniper Data Board

While precision rifle shooting, have you ever forgotten your holdovers from having a big target array? Or from having a target center way out in the distance?  If you answered “YES” to either of these questions, the Prater Precision “The Sniper Data Board” is perfect for you!

A U.S. Special Operations Veteran designed The Sniper Data Board to access ballistic reference sheets or ballistic computers without disrupting the shooting position or allowing the target to leave the field of view. With a clear protective case, the shooter can make corrections with a grease pencil, plot out targets, and set DOPE in the desired chart. Additionally, this device helps the shooter quickly move from target to target without coming off the gun to look at the next shot’s hold.

The Sniper Data Board allows quick reference to your data for multiple distance engagements. The Sniper Data Board is a collapsible, lightweight solution that utilizes a standard Picatinny rail to display on either side of the weapon. The Sniper Data Board Data Card Holder is available in MultiCam® and Tan. The components are precision machined from 6061 aircraft-grade aluminum and protected by Mil-Spec Type III hard coat anodizing.  The Sniper Data Boards are manufactured and assembled in the United States with all Berry Compliant materials.

What was once considered a simple matter of comfort is now understood that properly layered clothing systems affect performance. Modern base layers are multi-faceted performance garments that lay the foundation for a clothing system, and the folks at Massif® have set the bar high. Their base layer collection keeps the wearer comfortable and dry and protects from heat and flame exposure.

Cool Knit®– Lightweight

The perfect base layer, Cool Knit®, aggressively wicks sweat away from your skin, keeping you cool and preventing saturation. The lightweight four-way stretch retains its shape over time and is highly compressible for easy stuffing when you’re living out of a pack. Constructed with DuPont™ Nomex® brand fiber – the first flame-resistant fiber selected for use in military uniforms. DuPont™ Nomex® fibers carbonize and thicken when exposed to the intense heat of a flash fire, creating a protective barrier that reduces or prevents burn injuries. The Cool Knit is so soft and comfortable that you’ll forget it is Flame Resistant (FR).

Nitro Knit – Lightweight

The Massif® Nitro Knit base layer with 37.5™ technology offers no-melt, no-drip protection for day-to-day activity. The extremely lightweight and breathable fabric works with body heat to dissipate moisture keeping you dry and comfortable. These next-to-skin base layers have a performance fit and multi-dimensional stretch for ease of movement and layering.

Protective Combat Uniform (PCU) – Lightweight and Midweight

The PCU is the moisture-wicking, next-to-skin layer in the complete PCU survival system. Developed for USSOCOM, Massif® utilizes Polartec® Power Dry® to provide superior wicking action, an ergonomic design for exceptional fit, smart seam integration to eliminate pressure points from stacked seams, high breathability, quick-drying, and comfortable next-to-skin. You’ll want this Non-FR layer in your kit.

Inversion – Lightweight and Midweight

One-touch and you’ll be sold. A few cycles of wear, and you’ll be touting your new favorite base layer. The Massif® Inversion base layers utilize an advanced tri-blend yarn system that provides unparalleled performance across multiple environments. This unique blend plus the addition of spandex generates an improved range of motion, superior comfort, and remarkable recovery for after-wash durability with no unsightly “bag outs.” Sweat is rapidly wicked away from your body through a premier moisture-management system scientifically engineered for fast dry times. This moisture-management system results in a highly breathable garment that allows you to focus on your mission.

HotJohns® – Midweight

The HotJohns® base layer is a versatile piece worn next to skin or over a Massif® Cool Knit® layer. The design is streamlined for easy layering and is highly breathable, wicking moisture away from the skin, keeping you warm and dry even when you’re working up a sweat. Extra length in the back keeps the torso tucked in without excess bunching. Constructed with DuPont™ Nomex® brand fiber, HotJohns® will be a favorite in your layering system.

Flamestretch®– Heavyweight

Massif’s warmest base layer incorporating DuPont™ Nomex® brand fiber is an insulating layer worn over Cool Knit® and HotJohns® garments. Flamestretch® fabric is highly breathable while trapping heat to keep you warm and comfortable. When operating in cold conditions, these ultra-soft and incredibly comfortable garments are the ideal choices.

Magpul® Back-Up Sights (MBUS®) Pro

When situations arise and a shooter’s primary rifle optic malfunctions, gets damaged, or loses battery power, it could become a life or death situation. However, running Magpul® MBUS® Pro sights as a back-up will keep the shooter in the fight and confident in their weapon. The shooter can quickly reengage offensively when resorting back to old school standard iron sights. However, the MBUS® Pro front and rear sight combination are superior to traditional iron sights.

 

The MBUS® (Magpul® Back-Up Sight) Pro is a corrosion-resistant all-steel sighting solution that delivers maximum functionality and strength and mounts to a MIL-STD-1913 Picatinny or STANAG 4694 rail with minimum bulk. The sleek combo has positive detents that keep the MBUS® Pro Front and Rear at standard M4/M16 height when deployed.  The MBUS® Pro has a small footprint on the rail while offering a very low profile, even compared to its Gen 2 Polymer MAGPUL® brother.

 

The user can mount the MBUS® Pro sight to a gas block without melting or deforming due to the all-steel construction.  The sights have a narrow base to make them compatible with most IR aiming laser and light installations for the professional user. Additionally, the elevation adjustment knob & windage knob can be turned by hand and require no tools to manipulate. The rectangular front sight post also has a selectable Standard & Match option.

 

Another MBUS® option is the Pro Offset Sights. These come in handy when the primary optic malfunctions or gets damaged. This 45-degree angle provides the shooter with an accurate iron sighting solution.

The REAR sight, with its sleek low profile, has sturdy positive detents in both up & down positions. In either mode, the desired position remains with no likelihood of slipping. However, making adjustments by hand takes a fair amount of finger strength. The MBUS® Pro Front & Rear combo weighs in at 3.3oz with hardware. The MBUS® Pro set up can be bought either in individual components or as a set.

LiteFighter® Sheltering Systems

 

With the total number of confirmed Coronavirus (COVID-19) cases exceeding more than 26 million people globally, our warfighters’ safety now extends well beyond the battlefield. To combat the further spread of COVID-19 and meet the social needs of tactical distancing, LiteFighter® Systems, LLC (www.litefighter.com) has deployed over 45,000 LiteFighter 1 tents this year to date.

 

The LiteFighter 1 is a unique, lightweight, multi-season, individual shelter system that can be used both on the ground as a waterproof tent and on a standard-issue US military cot as a bug-proof bed net.

Since its inception, they have provided more than 350,000 warfighters with the best one-person tent available for CONUS Field Training, Emergency Response Missions, and deployed to multiple hot spots worldwide.

With eight possible configurations, the LiteFighter 1 is the most versatile single person tent on the market. This 3-season army tent is deployable on the ground, as a lightweight, back-packable, freestanding tactical tent (with or without a rainfly). You can also attach it to any standard-issue military cot for a secured bug-proof bed net and attach the rainfly onto the cot mounted system for additional privacy and protection. There is an optional waterproof groundsheet to add to the system for even greater wear resistance and durability. If you want a minimal configuration, the LiteFighter 1 sets up quickly as an ultra-lightweight Hasty Hooch™. To create a freestanding scout hide-site, add your camouflage netting to the hasty hooch configuration.

 

The LiteFighter 1 sets up quickly and easily. Here’s a demonstration:

 

LiteFighter® has developed a windbreaker attachment that can easily be placed on the inner tent to convert the 3-season military tent into a 4-season shelter for cold/windy conditions. The windbreaker can easily be taken off in warmer climates to reduce the weight and allow for more breathability. The inner tent tub floor and rainfly cover materials are all polyurethane coated; every seam has been carefully sealed with seam tape to make the system completely waterproof.

 

The double-walled ventilation allows maximum tent airflow and reduces condensation build-up. Dual extra-large rainfly vestibules allow for maximum gear storage and easy access into the tent. This LiteFighter 1 tent offers a simple 3-step assembly/disassembly procedure and packs easily into military rucksacks or 3-day assault packs.

 

LiteFighter® is staying on the leading edge of innovation by replacing the traditional aluminum pole sets with the new “Ghost Bone” ballistic fiber poles, spider hub, and all-weather shock cord. The new Ghost Bone ballistic fiber poles are lighter, stronger, more flexible, and more wind resistant. Watch how the LiteFigher 1 did against Category 1 hurricane-force winds. Seriously, you’ve got to watch this!

 

The LiteFighter 1 Individual Shelter System includes a 70D inner tent, a 30D rainfly cover, an all-in-one carbon fiber pole frame, six ground stakes, an accessory kit, fabric repair patches, a tent pole repair splint, four tent guy-outs with molded tensioners, a waterproof visual user guide, an accessory kit bag, and a tent carrying case.

 

The following optional items are available: a 70D waterproof groundsheet (required for hasty-hooch configuration), a windbreaker, and camouflage netting for a tactical scout hide-site.

 

LiteFighter® is the leading provider of small tactical shelters to the US military and continues to develop innovative shelter systems that address an ever-changing battlefield. LiteFighter® is a family-owned, VA certified, Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) that manufactures rugged, lightweight, versatile, and highly mobile individual shelter systems and tactical gear for the US military and the outdoor camping community. Our shelter systems are made in the USA, for soldiers, by soldiers. If you’d like to find out more, visit www.litefighter.com.

 

 

 

TCI™ LIBERATOR® NEW COMMUNICATIONS SUITE

 

The new TCI™ Liberator® IV, V, and HP headsets meet law enforcement and special operations forces’ current demands and requirements.

Liberator® headsets’ key features include electronic hearing protection to provide full-spectrum environmental sound and incoming radio communication simultaneously. The multimode dual processor design includes active noise cancelation (ANC) to add additional electronic protection against steady-state noise. A combined mode pairs the two processors to provide the end-user complete electronic protection against both impulse and steady-state noise. The Liberator® series tactical headsets have been deployed by the Department of Defense, law enforcement agencies, and security teams during missions in Afghanistan, Iraq, and worldwide. Thousands of systems are currently in service today, and thousands more will be deployed locally and around the world in the future. All Liberator® headset systems are designed, engineered, and manufactured in Ontario, California.

Liberator® tactical headsets exceed military durability standards with earcups made from durable Safari 7 TM glass polymer, which offers scratch-resistant protection and exceeds the high and low-temperature thresholds of current headset earcups. The Safari 7 TM glass polymer is the same type of material that Safariland® uses for its 7TS holsters systems. The headset features multimode digital hearing protection for all sound environments, high-battery life from a choice of two battery types, low-profile earcups, state-of-the-art digital sound processing for optimal reproduction of environmental sounds, and leading radio frequency (RF) and time delay multiaccess (TDMA) shielding for using advanced digital waveforms such as ANW2. TCI™ utilizes an exclusive Advanced Digital Threat Compression Technology (ADCTC) that compresses hazardous sound levels while providing the user with continuous situational awareness, communications, and the best replication of ambient sound. The TCI™ Advanced Digital Situational Awareness Enhancement technology (ADSAE) provides the user with precise sound localization and proximity of ambient sound to maximize the user’s effectiveness and safety. The headsets also feature an active noise cancelation (ANC) mode to provide an additional 5-8dBa reduction above the steady-state 25dBa (25NRR) offered passively by the earcups themselves. The third mode of operation combines ADCTC and ANC modes to provide electronic protection against steady-state noise and impulse noise.

Additionally, in this mode, the headset features a speech isolation mode that isolates close proximity human speech out of the background noise, processes it, and replicates it inside the earcup allowing end-users to communicate face-to-face without the need for an intercom. The modern electronics on this headset are firmware updatable using near field communications (NFC) protocols. These progressive attributes and an array of others enable Liberator® headsets to be ideal for tactical missions. Liberator® headsets provide the performance necessary to support operator concentration, safety, mission completion and reduce user fatigue.

The Liberator® IV and V Tactical Headsets provide exceptional communications and electronic hearing protection during typical and critical situations. The ability to maintain peripheral hearing and amplify potential danger signs and audio clues from the environment are unique features of Liberator® systems and necessary for tactical missions. The electronic hearing protection of Liberator® V systems is the most advanced available. Less progressive systems “clip” or “cut-off” ambient sounds while the hearing protection is activated, impeding situational awareness for the user and often negatively affects incoming communications. On the other hand, Liberator® systems compress and reduce hazardous sound to safe levels inside the headset without muting ambient sounds or incoming radio communication audio. The TCI™ ADSAE technology provides 360 degrees of ambient sound reproduction. This technology is the most accurate method of environmental sound replication, threat identification, and threat localization.  It uses dual external microphones that continually process ambient sounds and instantaneously compress impulse noise. With up to 29 dBa of attenuation, the headset protects the user from exposure to harmful static-state and impulse sounds by compressing dangerous sound levels to approximately 82 dBa. The headsets feature a fixed behind-the-head comfort fit, and the headset suspension provides a comfortable fit with any helmet type. The rigid band is situated low enough to not conflict with different nape pads or ratchet-style helmet suspension systems. The band is also adjustable to allow for the best fit possible.

Liberator® IV Tactical Headsets come with compact single-channel tactical Push-to-Talk (PTT), with a quick disconnect radio interface cable. These radio interface cables are the same cables used on the TCI™ Liberator® 3 & 5 dual comm systems. The system includes a factory mutually approved radio interface connection, assuring the connection precisely meets radio model specifications. This model provides radio interface cables for military radios using a U329 connection and for the Motorola® XTS® 5000/PRC153. The switch is protected inside the PTT housing and is easily accessible in all conditions and wearing gloves. The raised PTT enclosure protects the switch from accidental activation. This PTT is ambidextrous, includes a 17″ coiled radio cable, and requires no end-user modification. This Liberator® V tactical headset comes with a compact dual tactical PTT and a compact single-channel PTT. Both PTT devices utilize the same common quick disconnect cables, including a factory mutually approved radio interface connection, assuring the connection precisely meets radio model specifications. The dual communications PTT is wired TEMPEST compliant and includes features to prevent accidental transmission of potential classified traffic over an unclassified radio net. The enclosure and custom aerospace aluminum switches are IP68 rated and have a cycle count of 1 million activations. The switches feature a raised tactile indicator for high and low bands and are easily distinguished in all conditions and wearing gloves. The single communications PTT is a modernized U94 form that is waterproof and features an ambidextrous MOLLE clip. This package allows end-users to conduct single-channel communications without the hassle of a deactivated PTT switch or unused open connections.

A zipped padded storage bag is also a standard feature for Liberator® systems.

The SOPMOD Buttstock

The Lewis Machine & Tool®, LMT®, SOPMOD buttstock was derived out of the Special Operations Peculiar Modifications program.  It was a true public/private partnership that teamed private business to manufacture new solutions to increase weapon performance for Special Operations Force’s requirements.  One of the block 2 program goals was to create an improved buttstock that would advance ergonomic and performance standards.

 

LMT® was the commercial force behind the development of the SOPMOD buttstock.  The stock incorporates an enhanced cheek weld and a rubberized buttpad.  The better angle on the cheek helps gain a more natural shooting position and incorporates two watertight tubes for battery storage. Together the enhanced cheek weld and rubberized buttpad reduce the overall felt recoil and improve second shot consistency.

 

The stock utilizes glass-reinforced polymer that is stronger than a standard M4 buttstock.  The tube is cut to military specified extension tubes and has a tight tolerance to eliminate any rattle or sound.  The gen2 SOPMOD stock incorporates two quick detach sling swivels for sling attachment.

 

Bottom line: The LMT® SOPMOD stock is an operationally-proven buttstock that reduces perceived recoil and improves accuracy.

SureFire® SOCOM Suppressors – The Standard-Bearer

In 2002 SureFire® created its suppressor division to redefine suppressor technology, materials, and construction. Starting with the finest U.S. mill-certified high-temperature alloys available, SureFire® engineered the most advanced and fail-safe suppressor baffle system ever devised. It met all their ambitious criteria for sound, flash, and dust signature reduction while remaining compact in size, lightweight, and supremely durable. They torture-tested every design relentlessly to ensure that it met their goals while consistently producing a sub-1 MOA shift in point of impact compared to the same weapon unsuppressed, regardless of the number of attach-detach cycles. Their patented front plate design virtually eliminated the first-round flash signature. Their patented Fast-Attach® mounting system provided a rock-solid interface with the weapon and fast and easy detachment after extensive firing. The philosophy at SureFire® has always been that durability, signature reduction, accuracy, repeatability, and sound suppression are the most important factors to consider when evaluating a suppressor design for combat or duty use.

Once they were satisfied, they had met their own goals; they summated their suppressors for the SOCOM suppressor solicitation. The SOCOM suppressor solicitation was the most demanding suppressor trial ever performed by the U.S. Military. In 2011 SureFire® was awarded the SOCOM Suppressor contract for $23.3 million.

 

In 2017 they were awarded another $10 million contract.

This contract is the second award based on the most rigorous and extensive suppressor selection in USSOCOM history.

In 2019 The military established NSN’s for the SOCOM556-RC2.

 

SureFire® makes SOCOM model suppressors for weapons systems from 5.56 to .50 Caliber weapons.

There are four SOCOM series models in 5.56 caliber; SB2, RC2, the Mini2, and MG. All of these come in both black and dark earth. All of these suppressors except the Mini2 have NSN’s assigned to them.

There is additionally four SOCOM series models in 7.62 caliber; SB2, RC2, TI, and MG. The MG model has an assigned NSN.

The SOCOM300-SPS was designed for the 300 Blackout, but works for all calibers from 5.56 thru 300WM.

The SOCOM338 TI is 9.9 inches long and weighs 22.0 OZ, but it is a beast at handling the 338 Lapua and has an assigned NSN.

The SOCOM 50 SPS at 14.4 inches long and 86 oz is a large suppressor to be sure, but it also accommodates the large 50 caliber round. The SOCOM 50 SPS delivers up to a 99% reduction in flash to conceal the shooter’s location.

The newest kids on the block are the SOCOM65-RC2 and the SOCOM65-TI. These suppressors are for 6.5mm, 6mm, .260 calibers. The SOCOM65-RC2 is the 6.5 mm/6 mm/.260-caliber version of the U.S. Special Operations Command selected suppressor for the Mk13 Sniper Rifle.

Massif, a world leader in flame-resistant clothing for the United States Military, today announced a new branch-wide approval from the United States Air Force for its women’s-fit 2-Piece Flight Suit for all non-ejection seat platforms.

 

This is further affirmation of Massif’s long-standing commitment to providing the best-fitting garments for all end users. Massif prides itself on purposeful clothing design with a high level of detail that syncs with the real-life needs of its end-user, for maximum performance in the field.

 

Over the last decade, there has been a steady growth of women in the military, particularly in aviation, with women making up 20.2% of the Air Force and 19% of the United States Navy (according to 2018 statistics). Massif recognized this growth early on and has, over the last several years, intentionally developed a line of women’s fit clothing that provides the best in comfort and performance for female service members.

 

“We know that for a team to perform well, their gear needs to perform well. That means optimal comfort and functionality for each specific individual on that team,” said Darci Knobel, Vice President of Customer Experience. “We have always been laser-focused on making sure our clothes fit and perform their best for all end-users, and have made a concerted effort to be at the forefront of providing performance garments designed specifically for women. Today’s news is further validation of our commitment, having already received approvals from the United States Navy for the women’s-fit 2-Piece Flight Suit, and approvals from all branches, including the United States Coast Guard, for our women’s-fit base layers.”

 

Massif’s 2-Piece Flight Suit was designed from direct end-user feedback across multiple branches and multiple platforms. Massif wanted to enhance the capabilities of the modern aviator and aircrewman with innovative design features unique to our garments. The original

 

patented attachment system in the suit was built to allow flexibility and movement between the jacket and pant while still aiding coverage in flash events.

 

Massif recently launched a short documentary film in their Massif Film Series titled “Love the Mission,” highlighting Captain Lexi McRobert, Operations Officer, G/1-189 AVN. Captain McRobert is a great example of the company’s mission to design and develop garments for women who serve.

 

“The days of women having to wear men’s uniforms are over,” said Knobel. “The example of Captain McRobert in our latest short film is a great one. Like nearly every woman in the military, she was issued a men’s flight suit. Wearing our women’s-fit 2-Piece Flight Suit allowed her to feel and perform her best. We are proud to provide the option for all service members to have the best-fitting gear to keep going and perform at their highest level.”

MAGPUL® Gen M3 Magazine

With a few modifications to the combat-proven MOE® (MAGPUL® Original Equipment) M2 PMAG®, the Gen M3™ takes a great design and adds additional improvements. The Gen M2 MOE® and the Gen M3™ are primarily designed for the AR15/M4 weapons. The Gen M3™ has a modified internal and external geometry also permits operation with a wide range of additional weapons such as the HK® 416/MR556A1/M27 IAR, British SA-80, FN® SCARN MK 16/16S, along with others.

The MOE® MAGPUL® set a new standard moving away from the aluminum USGI magazine while offering a cost-competitive upgrade. The new Gen M3™ still comes in a robust impact-resistant polymer construction. It also includes the dual-sided transparent windows to enable rapid visual identification of an approximate number of rounds remaining. The window incorporates new material technology and manufacturing processes for enhanced strength, durability, and reliability to exceed rigorous military performance specifications.

Like the MOE® PMAG, the GEN M3™ features a long-life USGl-spec stainless steel spring, four-way anti-tilt follower and constant-curve internal geometry for reliable feeding, and simple tool-less disassembly to ease cleaning. Also added is a redesigned bolt catch notch in the rear of the magazine provides increased bolt catch clearance. At the same time, an over-travel stop on the spine helps ensure the magazine will not over-insert on compatible weapons. Low profile ribs and new aggressive front and rear texture gives positive control of the GEN M3™ in all environments. A paint pen dot matrix has been added to the bottom panel of the body to allow easy marking by the end user for identification.

The new, easy to disassemble flared floorplate aids extraction and handling of the magazine while providing improved drop protection. It is slightly slimmer than before for better compatibility with tight double and triple magazine pouches. The magazine includes a pop-off Impact/Dust Cover that minimizes debris intrusion and protects against potential damage to the top cartridge during storage and transit.

The Gen M3™ magazine takes a proven design and adds amazing additions for the end-user while maintaining value to the customer. When it comes to a Polymer magazine with well-thought-out functional options, the MAGPUL Gen M3™ is a magazine well worth using. These magazines are proudly made in the USA.
