PMCI - May 2021
It's that time again and even though parts of our world are still ravaged by COVID, Bill and Trampas have pulled out the stops to get another issue of PMCI up and online! The world doesn't stop turning, and neither do they stop "getting work done" as PMCI gets inside the doors of the cutting-edge WOFT Training Facility in the USA and has a look at what G&G Armament are doing with the Taiwanese Military in terms of "6MM Training" for the real world. While Trampas gets on the range with the SIG M18, whilst Bill turns his attention to packs and plate carriers; it may be hard to get stuff done right now, but as always PMCI deliver something for everyone when it comes to "tacticool"!

HELIKON-TEX ROGUE HOODIE
GEAR ON TEST
“Old” is the new “new” it would seem when it comes
to camo gear, and this time we pick up the story of the
re-introduction of “Tigerstripe” by Helikon-Tex, our old
friends from Poland!
In the last issue of PMCI I talked about the fact that our
good friends at Helikon-Tex had recently released both
pants and shorts of a thoroughly modern style in the
venerable “Tiger” pattern, and said that I hoped there
would be more to come from them using this excellent
camouflage, and what a difference just a few weeks
makes!
I said in the review that I hoped Helikon-Tex would do
more with the pattern, and it looks like my comments
have been heeded as they’ve recently announced the
ROGUE HOODIE that will be available in both Multicam
Black/Black, and Tigerstripe/Black, and it looks absolutely
righteous in both patterns!
The ROGUE HOODIE (Full Zip) is a tactical urban hoodie
made for “military style” fans. The combination of a loose
cut and ten pockets makes it easy to carry all the elements
of your EDC gear in it. The main pockets have additional
organizers that will allow you to properly arrange the
equipment and protect it against loss. YKK® zipped chest
and shoulder pockets allow for quick and direct access to
documents or a small, flat wallet.
The use of a tear-resistant 50% Cotton/50% Nylon
rip-stop fabric additionally strengthens the panels on the
hoodie, whilst the additional polyester fabrics will ensure
give and comfort in all the right places! The elasticated
cuffs and the cord-adjustable hood provide temperature
comfort on cold days too.
The hoodie is available in two unique colour and
camouflage combinations, thanks to which it will suit those
who like to stand out in the crowd (or indeed disappear
into the woods)! It will allow you to emphasize your
passions while going to town, to the shooting range or
the gym. Additional velcro panels on the shoulders allow
easy personalization.
I am liking this A LOT, and again, I hope that this is
just the next garment to appear in a growing range for
the future, and that Helikon-Tex will have more for me to
show soon! You can rest assured that my own order has
already been placed, and although I could be all young
and groovy with MC Black, I’m going all traditionalist this
time by embracing good old “Tiger”, and you can keep
an eye on this story as it develops by checking out www.
