BLACK ARCH ANNOUNCES DRI-MATRIX BACKERS

Black Arch Holsters sends…

Logan, UT – November 3, 2016 – Black Arch Holsters, a manufacturer of hybrid holsters, announced today the release the Dri-Matrix backer. This all-new synthetic backer has an advanced composite construction that offers greater comfort and moisture wicking ability while also protecting the wearer’s gun from sweat.

The Dri-Matrix backer was designed to provide maximum user comfort while avoiding the issues of durability and condensation found in many other synthetic backers. The key to making this possible is a 3D mesh that transfers pressure over a larger area (providing comfort for the wearer) and allows for the lateral flow of vapor through the backer. This lateral airflow, combined with a surface layer of high density leather and a polymer sweat barrier, allows air to flow through the holster while preventing sweat from reaching the wearer’s gun. The leather face also provides a much more durable surface than many other synthetic backers and won’t degrade over time.

This advanced backer was designed specifically for Black Arch’s Protos-M family of modular holsters. This means that while you can buy a new Protos-M with a Dri-Matrix backer, current Protos-M owners can also buy the new backer separately and easily upgrade their holster.

Protos-M holsters with Dri-Matrix backers are currently available for $79.95. Individual Dri-Matrix backers are available for $35.95. All Black Arch holsters include free shipping and a lead time of only 2-4 business days.

RMJ Tactical has released teaser images of the Mini Jenny before and they released the image above today which shows us that the Mini Jenny will be machined/ground from 80CRV2 steel – a very tough steel with good edge retention.

Cole-Tac Twist Pouch

One of the things that makes the Multitasker Twist so handy is that, when you are using it, it doesn’t always need a pouch. You can just clip it in your pocket or on your gear. However, when you store it in your range bag or backpack you’ll want to keep the included bit carrier with it or it will migrate to all kinds of hard to find places. That is where the Cole-Tac Twist Pouch comes in.

This slick little pouch is about as simple as it gets and that is a good thing. It has two pockets – one for the Twist tool and one for the bit holder – and a Velcro secured flap closure. The pouch is made from 1000D Cordura and available in a variety of colors.

The BadgerStrap – The Newest Belt from Carbon Tactics

Carbon Tactics has used Kickstarter to successfully launch a handful of belts. Their newest crowdfunding effort is the BadgerStrap – a new take on their very slick Quicky Buckle/Belt.

The new buckle has the same magnetic closure system as the Quicky Buckle and that is a good thing. It is very easy to clasp and release but very secure. It also has a similar sliding belt tension bar which is designed to lock down on the webbing aggressively – especially when the belt is under tension.

The Badger Buckle is available with 3 different patterns machined directly on its face. There is a simple flat version, a square pattern that is reminiscent of a PMAG, and hexagon pattern. It is available with either a single layer of webbing or a double layer. I own two of the double layer belts and find them to be the ideal stiffness for supporting a holster comfortably.
