Midwest Armor VENTURE FM4

VentureFM4Midwest Armor’s new VENTURE FM4 has a spec sheet that is down right drool inducing. How does a level IV stand alone, triple curve plate that is only .55″ thick sound? What if I told you it weighs only 5.5 pounds per plate?

  • Materials: Advanced Uni-Directional UHMWPE
  • Size: SAPI/ESAPI Standards
  • Thickness: 0.55″
  • Weight: 5.5 pounds (2.5 Kg)
  • Triple-Curve
  • Liner: Plural-Component Polyurea
  • Resistant to Gasoline/JP7 and salt water

These plates tick every check box for what makes a potentially epic set of ballistic plates – thin, broad ballistic threat mitigation, and lightweight. Check out the new VENTURE FM4 at Midwest Armor.

Igniter Zipper Pull from RE Factor Tactical

Look at the nearest zipper pull. Go ahead. Feast your eyes on that worthless freeloader. It just dangles there, doing nothing but jingling like Santa’s reindeer when you move. It’s about time someone put them to work.

RE Factor Tactical’s new Igniter Zipper Pull is an easy to carry cordage/fire kit that has 3 main components: 4′ of paracord, a small ferro rod, and an 8″ piece of jute twine. It rides on just about any zipper until it is needed. The paracord is to be used as emergency cordage. The ferro rod can be used to spark a fire with the jute twine (see this post for how to use jute twine).
