SHOT Show 26 – Shaw Concepts
Shaw Concepts is always a fountain of innovation and thy displayed quite a few upcoming products but the one I want to concentrate on is an as-yet-unnamed harness which can be configured as chest rig or plate carrier.
Both modular and scalable in nature, it will accept a bib, panels and dangler at the front. You can also add armor plates by using Shaw Speed Bags. The front plate is attached to the front of the rig via Velcro, is an easy and quick way to scale the protection level.
At the rear, the plate attaches via custom Metal Hardware and T-Stoppers.
The rear is stiffened using Tegris to assist with load carriage and stability.
The Shaw harness also incorporates an S-Lok sleeve cummerbund which is available in 3”, 5”, and a narrow plate carrier height. The patent pending S-Lock uses the same technology as the Usurper belt to set the length of the cummerbund.
The rear of the harness is height adjustable and the shoulder straps are length adjustable. Additionally, the shock cord allows some flex for breathing yet the stiffened spine nears the weight of the load.
There is a metal toggle buckle to attach the shoulder straps to the front panel but these can be replaced with FS Tubes and you can easily add shoulder pads to the shoulder straps.
Assault zip-on panel (no final name) uses UCAS standard zippers for compatibility with other brands.
Likely to launch July 4th along with several other new items.
