Quick e-preview of some recently competed Kermit rigs. Have to look at my spreadsheet again for total amount of rigs ordered but it’s between 16-20.

Thank you again to everyone who was able to purchase, that money allowed my wife and I some very specialized and urgent veterinary care and some more time with an old four-legged friend before she passed. Your patience will be rewarded. by @nortac_

Short clip from Navy SEALs: Tides of SpecWar showing SEALs using 6-color desert uniforms. Not a ton of documentation of this pattern in use by them, or 3-color pre GWOT as it was mostly used on training deployments to Kuwait or by Team 3 as they were assigned to the Middle East. This footage is most likely from the first half of the 90s if I had to guess, even though the video was made in 2000. by @nortac_

Yes, the long awaited NorTac preorder is open! LBVs and Kermit chest rigs in OD/Black only for this run. Shipping both domestic and international is free (I’ll do all the hard work so you can obtain some sweet nylon). Production will start after I’m done with the Blackhawk pouches.

Any questions please let me know. by @nortac_

General overview of what to expect from future NorTac items.

Preorder opens on the website in my bio at 12pm on March 28th (I think I said April in the video incorrectly) and is limited to 10 LBVs and 10 Kermit chest rigs. OD/Black trim only for this run. by @nortac_

Check out the site (link in bio) and the reel posted just before this for some really interesting ass information that people totally want to hear. Anyways, the pre order will be open for a week.

Yes I’ll offer other colors in the future. by @nortac_

Quick bit of show and tell and info about the pre order by @nortac_

Hey everyone, I’ve been MIA for a bit but my wife and I moved a few months ago and everything that goes along with that took up a bunch of sewing time. I have a few outstanding custom orders from very very patient guys to finish up and then I’m starting production on a run of 10 OD/Black LBVs that will go up on my site (link in bio).

These will be a “drop” style as most other gear I make will be moving forward. As lame as it is it’s an easy way to get stuff to people without them waiting months between ordering and then paying when it’s eventually done.

After the LBVs I’ll do a run of Kermits in OD/Black depending on the demand. In the future I plan to offer a few pouches and other small items but for now I’m focusing on the rigs.

No target date for these but probably around April-May.

Bravo Two Zero (1999) is one of my all-time favorite movies. Great story and great examples of some modified PLCE (I love webbing and OPS vests). by @nortac_

Rescued these two guys who got separated in a 2002 Surefire catalog and proceeded to vomit phone-based filters and photoshop techniques all over them. by @nortac_

Current stock of orders is about 75% done, what originally started out as 10 slots grew into about 28 individual orders as I took on additional orders here and there.

Thank you for your patience if you’re still waiting, those who’ve received their orders know that I provide updates throughout the build process.

I’m one guy with limited free time to sew who underestimated how quickly I can crank out gear, so again thank you for your patience and support.
