2020 Vision: Military Small Arms Evolution.

From Soldiers Systems, the new LWMMG

I can hardly believe my eyes here. In the last few weeks a couple of stories hit the industry editorial sphere that show a trend in Military Small Arms. They’re evolving, fast.

From Soldiers Systems here is the 5,000 unit solicitation for the new machine gun similar to the one pictured above for SOCOM and the USMC.

Here too the US Army is looking at fielding an ISCR/IBR

Further solicitations over the past couple months have shown US SOCOM and the conventional infantry forces of the USMC and US Army are looking to invest heavily in upgrading their small arms capabilities.

The LWMMG solicitation is the most forward and furthest advanced in the the procurement process and we’ve seen requirements for new rifles come and go many times. From the XM8 to today the US Military is keeping its eye on evolving technology but rarely moves forward more than minor increments. The current fielded state of military small arms is 10-30 years behind the firearms industry.

The XM8, Service Rifle that wasn’t. An H&K G36 essentially

The reason these new solicitations seem more promising is that the US Military is no longer tying itself to legacy systems. More specifically legacy calibers, 5.56x45mm and 7.62x51mm. The new LWMMG is in .338 Norma Magnum (8.6x63mm) and the Intermediate Battle Rifle is, from inception, only looking to stay in 7.62x51mm until a new round is determined.

The US Military is actively looking to modernize its small arms. The current legacy systems are designs that originated in the 1950s and are pretty much at their design evolutionary limits. To improve the system’s core capabilities the round it fires needed to change

The new M110A1 CSASS, a contender for the IBR/ISCR as well

Free floating barrels, M-LOK, Variable Optics/Reflex Optics, The M17 MHS, and now the Light Weight Medium Machine Gun (LWMMG) solicitation to surpass the GPMG/MMG systems currently fielded all point towards the largest shift in infantry capabilities we’ve had since the M16 and M60 were fielded.

Vanquest 2017: New Falconer, Trident, Rackit, and Multi-Cam Black

The 2017 Vanquest is out in the wild. Four main products and the Black Multi-Cam nylon headline the field.

 

The FALCONER-30 backpack is loaded with key features from Vanquest’s most popular and field-proven bags and pouches: IBEX backpack’s fillet-open main compartment, MAXIMIZER Organizer’s space-saving webbing, and FATPack med pouch’s elastic cord ladders, all packed inside this 3-layer backpack!

Total 30-liters of space featuring a MacGyver’s dozen (28) of pockets/slots to securely stow your EDC, outdoor, school, work, and get-home essentials. The covert FALCONER-30 backpack is unrivaled in its ability to TRULY organize your gear.

This newer larger Falconer is ready to meet your everyday needs for organization, carry, and short term sustainment.

 

TRIDENT-31 backpack is the big brother of our very popular TRIDENT-20™ backpack in a larger, more versatile form. You wear it like a backpack, with the option of quick-access from the side, just like a sling pack.

The new TRIDENT-31 is 31 liters in total capacity (10 liters larger than the TRIDENT-20), with improved shoulder straps, extra back panel padding and a removable, padded waist belt with pull-forward adjustment. You can now comfortably carry more gear and heavier loads.

Padded main compartment and four dividers provide extra protection for your EDC (everyday carry) items, photography gear, or range gear and a dedicated laptop sleeve that can hold a 17″ laptop. You can access the interior from top or left side, and like a sling pack, you can quickly get to your gear by swinging the backpack to your front. Total 44 pockets and slots to organize your gear.

The Rackit-36 Rifle and gear bag offers the user a mildly more spacious and organized bag over the Gen 1.

New Features: (1) 0.5″ longer internal space. (2) More loop-faced MOLLE-Air attachment area in the front pocket. (3) More loop attachment area in the main compartment

The Rackit-36 Gen2 will get all your kit where you need to go and lower the advertising signature of a traditional rifle case.

Anyone who has gone into the field for an afternoon hike or a multi-day excursion knows hydration is crucial. The new HYDRA has you covered so you neither under or over pack.

The HYDRA Water Bottle Holder is your lightweight “One-Size-Fits-All” solution for carrying any cylindrical item from a skinny 16.9 oz (500 ml) bottle, to a giant Klean Kanteen 64 oz (2000 ml) Growler.

Made of grippy Hypalon rubber and ultra-tough 1000-D CORDURA, the HYDRA is built to serve you for years. The HYDRA also comes with built-in MOLLE straps for quick attachment or belt carry.

Grab what you need from the entire Vanquest 2017 line up here. I know I need a new EDC pack.
