TAREINCO Patch Field Strips
The Patch Field Strips from TAREINCO look like handy little buggers. They are strips of webbing with loop material sewn on them that can be secured in a column of PALS webbing. You can place several of them together to create as large or as small of a patch panel as you need. In addition to serving as patch panels, these would also be excellent for placing on the lower front of a plate carrier to make it compatible with chest rigs like those from Mayflower R&C or Extreme Gear Labs.
The Patch Field Strips are sold in packs of two. Check them out at TAREINCO.
Hard Target Innovations Kopfjaeger Sling
Hard Target Innovations is developing a new sling, the Kopfjaeger Sling, that is geared toward precision shooting that has some interesting features.
The Kopfjaeger is made from 1.5″ nylon webbing. It has an integrated, adjustable arm cuff that makes it easy to sling up and stabilize the rifle. The loop is adjusted and holds tension via an Austri Alpin Slidebloc buckle.
The most unique feature might be the removable dope patch that has space for data out to 1000 yards in 50 yard increments. This dope patch is secured via hook and loop material so that it is replaceable. Additional dope patches will be available for purchase.
A portion of the proceeds of each sling will be donated to AmericanSnipers.org.
The Kopfjaeger Sling should be available soon. Check out Hard Target Innovations.

RE Factor Tactical produced a great video that covers just some of the uses for the venerable P51 Can Opener. It is easy to see why they integrate them into their Operator Bands.
Tactical Tailor Now Building in PenCott
Tactical Tailor is about to make the day of PenCott Camo fans everywhere. They are releasing many of their most popular products in PenCott!
From Tactical Tailor:
Tactical Tailor now building in PenCott™
Lakewood, WA—For Immediate Release 05 NOV 13
Tactical Tailor, supplier of rugged, 100% American-made tactical equipment to Warfighters around the world, is proud to announce it will be building equipment in the PenCott™ family of camouflage patterns.
The effectiveness camouflage should not gauged by popularity, nor aesthetic appeal. Camouflage is measured by its ability to mask shape and form to prevent detection. The successful use of camouflage—or its compromise—often determines mission success, mission failure and even mission completion. It is for this reason that Hyde Definition calls their patterns Mission Critical Camouflage, and it’s because of PenCott’s efficacy that TT added the Badlands™ and GreenZone™ variants to its equipment camo pattern options.
“We haven’t just looked at T&E results,” says Tactical Tailor’s GW Ayers, “We did our own research. We took it to the field and sent it overseas…the results are in. We need to offer PenCott™.”
“Tactical Tailor makes some of the most rock solid and effective gear on the planet,” says Lawrence Holsworth, Hyde Definition’s Director of Business Development. “It’s a great honor to be working with them—and a testament to the effectiveness of PenCott™’s patterns that they chose us.”
Hyde Definition’s family of patterns features a unique, hybrid, 3-in1 pattern geometry that is more organic and natural looking than typical camouflages. It provides superior concealment at all ranges. Founder Dominic Hyde realized the deficiencies of many such patterns years ago and set out to design a new pattern geometry that would be more effective and adaptable than any other patterns available.
“The PenCott™ patterns are enjoying great growth internationally,” Holsworth advises, “so teaming up with Tactical Tailor will help us consolidate and build on that success in the US market as well.”
Tactical Tailor will initially be offering equipment in BadLands™ (for dry, upland, bushland, semi-arid and transitional terrain) and GreenZone™ (for verdant temperate, tropical and semi-tropical operations). There are two other patterns, with a fifth in development: SandStorm™ (for arid, desert terrain) and SnowDrift™ (for snow and winter terrain). The last pattern is called MetroPolis. It’s an urban/industrial/low-light pattern scheduled for release in 2014.
“Sandstorm™ and SnowDrift™ are great patterns, no doubt,” Ayers continues, shading his eyes with a grin and looking into the distance. “and MetroPolis is intriguing. However, I can neither confirm nor deny we’ll be doing anything with those in the future.”

I suspect that this bodes well for the staying power of PenCott.
