pmcimagazine.comGEAR ON TESTVIKTØS GEAR“A tactical brand like no other. VIKTØS productstranscend the typical boundaries of conventionaltactical companies and address the entire black gunlifestyle; from combat to training, to R&R.”That’s a bold statement and the tagline for VIKTØS gear, and I’mdefinitely liking what I’m seeing, and that’s gear that’s as good fordaily wear as it is for the range! VIKTØS is a family run businessheadquartered in Janesville, Wisconsin. Launched in the fall of2017 by a combined force of industry and military veterans, itis their mission to produce innovative gear for the tactical user.They say that their product transcends the typical boundaries ofconventional tactical companies and addresses the entire blackgun lifestyle; from combat to training, to R&R. It is a decidedlyunique approach from a decidedly unique brand.I’ve had a couple of items from different parts of their line tocheck out, and again I like what I’m seeing. At this time of theyear if you’re having a range day, even an indoor one, then a bitof comfy, warm “snivel gear” is just the thing, and many of us atPMCI swear by our favourite hoodies! As I’ve been watching therollout of VIKTOS gear I’m REALLY liking the FALLBACK SHOOTERHOODIE! Available in black or grey, in sizes S to XXL, this is onerighteous pullover that can take the nip out of an autumn/winterrange day, but that will equally at home as a “statement ofintent” in more social settings! Made of 2oz mid-weight fleece(80% cotton/20% polyester) it comes in a relaxed men’s fit,with a Ribbed elastic cuff and waist, and as VIKTOS garmentsare U.S. veteran designed and developed you’ll be warm in theknowledge that you’re supporting a worthwhile business too!Another particular bit of gear (amongst many great items!)that took my eye is the VIKTOS UPSCALE SLING 2 BAG. Largerthan a chest slung buttpack, but smaller than current tacticalslingbags, the VIKTOS Upscale 2 CCW Slingbag Bag in MultiCamwas designed for minimalist concealed carry and EDC and as anideal “Go Bag”. The CCW compartment will fit up to full-size pistolin the included universal Velcro® holster, or switch it out for yourpreferred holster. The ambidextrous, lightly padded, sling andCCW access compartment allow easy pistol access when wornon either side of the body.The main compartment features elastic webbing and internalcargo pocket, perfect for holding extra magazines, tourniquet,and IFAK. The padded upper compartment is a perfect place forspare eyepro. The Upscale can also serve double-duty with itsrear MOLLE panel, allowing it to be attached to a plate carrier orother bag. In this configuration, the CCW compartment is capableof holding a 1.5-liter hydration bladder.• Overall dimensions 15″ H x 7″ W x 4″ D• 600d Cordura® chassis (Ranger/Nightfjall)• 500d Nylon chassis (Multicam)• Custom sling hardware including quick release shoulder strap• Light padding on shoulder strap adds comfort• YKK® zippers with quiet pulls• Rear Molle webbing• Ambidextrous access concealed pistol compartment• Universal Velcro® sleeve holster fits up to a full-size pistol• Fits up to 1.5-liter hydration bladder with clip and hose routing(not included)• Main pocket with organisers for magazines, tourniquet, medkit• Padded eyeglass compartment• Ambidextrous and stowable shoulder sling• U.S. veteran design & developedThis looks ideal for longer duration days where you need to carrythose extra items to see you through the duration, and I’m likingthe fact that it can also be attached to the rear of a plate carrierto act as a sustainment pack! If truth be told I’m very impressedby what I’ve seen from VIKTOS thus far, and I hope they’ll be atSHOT 2022 to speak with in person, and I also hope there’s a lotmore to come from them!Check out the entire range they offer by simply visiting www.viktos.com and get yourself some of that “black gun lifestyle”!18
