Christmas Gift Idea: BFG Wallet

By on November 15, 2016 in EDC

I have mentioned the Blue Force Gear Wallet on these pages before but now Christmas is looming and you probably need gift ideas. There has been a BFG Wallet in my back pocket for 2 years now and I can say it is easily the best wallet I have ever owned.

I don’t like thick wallets so tri-folds, while functional, are not an option for me. Bi-fold wallets are slim but in their most common layout, they can’t hold enough cards before becoming too thick… if they can hold them at all.

The BFG Wallet is a bifold but with a different layout than most. Most bi-folds have a bill slot and a credit card holding zone laid out on either side of the fold (total of 2). The BFG Wallet has a bill slot, of course, but it has two credit card holding zones on either side of the fold (total of 4). It has more card slots which can either hold more cards or, better yet, spread out a few cards to keep the wallet very slim. The layout of the cards also allows the wallet to bend slightly in the middle so it conforms to your backside… Now, that is luxury.

On top all that, the wallet is constructed from BFG’s ULTRAcomp laminate material so it shrugs off water, won’t tear or crack, and is just generally durable without being thick or heavy.

The BFG Wallet makes a great gift. Check it out at Blue Force Gear.

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.

Cole-Tac Twist Pouch

By on November 7, 2016 in EDC, Tactical Gear

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.
