Exos Defense

The TI-7 Stock is an excellent piece of equipment but it has suffered something of a branding crisis. It is manufactured under the Tactical Intent brand that belongs to Molding Solutions, an experienced molding company out of Lexington, Kentucky. However, when you see it for sale at various retailers, it is often listed incorrectly as being manufactured by a number of different places like Double Star Arms or Red Jacket Arms.

Exos Defense

In order to reign in all of the branding issues and to create a new brand under which they can expand their product line. Molding Solutions, is creating a new company called Exos Defense. Their website is currently just a PDF catalog but the entire site should be online soon.

If the TI-7 Stock and their KWIKGUARD Rail Covers are any indication, you will want to keep an eye on Exos Defense.

Tacprogear is rolling out Multicam options across much of their product line. Several items are already available and more are in the pipeline. While their products are assembled overseas, the Multicam fabric is US made and their hardware is top-notch (YKK zippers, ITW hardware, etc.). I have been in touch with the folks behind Tacprogear and they have some very promising products in the works, so stay tuned.

Check out Tacprogear.

Fight and Flight Tactical Severs Ties with 72 Tactical

By on August 15, 2013 in Tactical Gear
LLAMA PackMany of you are familiar with the pack formerly known as the Skinny Sasquatch. It is somewhat like an up-sized version of the Fight and Flight Tactical Defilade Pack with a ton of additional features that make it very scalable. The pack is designed and manufactured by Fight and Flight Tactical and it was distributed by 72 Tactical.

Due to some serious issues, Fight and Flight Tactical has cut ties with 72 Tactical. I won’t air out all the details at this time but the following image that alleges IP theft is currently making its way around Facebook and it appears to me to be just the tip of the iceberg.

Whenever something like this happens, there is likely to be a lot of back tracking, double talk, and supporters from both sides lining up to defend their favorite gear maker. It will take a long time to sort this out fully, if it is ever fully sorted out. The plate carrier issue above is not the only, or even the most serious, alleged issue with 72 Tactical. The most important details to come out of this is:

The Skinny Sasquatch will now be called the LLAMA Pack (Long-range, Low-Profile, Adaptable, Mission, Assault Pack). The packs will still be made in-house at Fight and Flight Tactical and distribution will move in-house as well. These will be on the Fight and Flight Tactical website soon. Stay tuned for more details on the pack as they are available and a full review.

UPDATE: The LLAMA Pack is now available at FightandFlight.com.
