2015 SHOT show updates thread...

[Travis Bertrand]

Small item for me… the christensen arms scope cover with exposed turrets. Any info would be great. its on their website but theres no sizing at all or description or anything.

Thanks!

Interesting, I didn't see them there but will look again hopefully.

I may have missed it here in the thread, but anything new from Vortex?

I didn't see anything new at vortex but will double check hopefully.

From the multiple pictures from itstactical and on Kifaru's FB page it appears that there's a multicam cargo panel on a duplex frame with an OR dry sack between the two.

If anyone has some time, can you confirm this and/or give more details on the new cargo panel? Seems like everyone is just focused on the mountain rambler and new EDC pack.

Just the redesigned crossfire binoculars (I linked the video earlier in the thread) and strike eagle 1-6, but there could be more coming later this year.

Just wondering about Swarovski. Thanks gang!

 

[Travis Bertrand]

New kings camo layering system. From merino base layer to a lightweight rain gear. Not a bad option!

We posted earlier on it. The newest item was the spotter with reticle introduced this past fall.

Thanks for the updates guys.

Hey thanks Bitterroot!

 

[Travis Bertrand]

New entry level binos from vortex, msrp 170-200$


I believe Matt posted a video link on it.

New 1-6x scope (strike eagle) as well. 330$ looks to be a lot of bang for the buck....

Yea the cargo panel is well thought out. The attachment points are kifaru standard, they removed everything off of the bottom of the panel, added a pocket to the front, and the straps are attached with k clips and all of the 8 straps are same size/length!

Travis, how big is the pocket and what is the price point?

 

[Travis Bertrand]

Pocket is approx 8-10" deep and 12" across. Price point is 135$!

Thanks for checking it out and bonus for the pic! Good that the price is the same as the old cargo panel.

So the inside is slick? With no PALS? I'm sure Kifaru will have more info soon. Thanks again.

 

[Travis Bertrand]

It's slick on the inside and bottom is free of any attachment points.

Matt, thank you for the taking the time for all of this and getting a pic...much appreciated.

 

[Matt Cashell]

My pleasure Jeff. We really put some miles on. The best part by far was hanging out with the Rokslide crew. What a great bunch of people!

I hope Roksliders found the updates helpful. Make sure to stay tuned for the upcoming videos hitting the site. I know Ryan is hard at work putting them together.

BB, thanks for putting the time/effort into posting the reports and pictures for us!

You are certainly welcome, but it definitely wasn't just me (I just started the thread). It was a real team effort and everybody worked hard to get good intel for Roksliders.

Again, stay tuned for more detailed info on the videos!
