Anchortex Welcomes Back RBR Tactical Under Its New Name, RBR North America (August 5, 2011)
If you’re familiar with the RBR Tactical line, you may have been surprised when the company, known for making a popular series of ballistic helmets and tactical armor used by many government agencies at the municipal, state, and federal level, closed their doors for business several months ago. We have good news, though - RBR is back, under the new brand name RBR North America, and has opened with several new advantages. First and foremost, if you’ve ever worn an RBR Tactical helmet, you probably only had one significant complaint against it - the mesh liner it came with was flimsy, wasn’t made in the United States, and was usually quickly torn out and replaced before it ever saw service. RBR North America has taken steps to ensure you’ll never have to rip out a liner again by using Team Wendy quality liners made in the United States and approved for use by the US Army, Marine Corps, Navy, and National Guard on all tactical helmets from this point onward. This does nudge the price up slightly, but the customization quality of the padding now included is incredible - a single Large-size helmet can fit all but the very smallest or very largest of heads, because the Team Wendy padding included allows you to customize the helmet to fit your head snugly without feeling crammed into place or dangerously loose. Second, RBR armor carriers are undergoing redesigns and improvements that take consumer and dealer suggestions into consideration. While the basic concealable or exterior carriers are available immediately (at extremely reasonable prices), the new carrier designs will be announced shortly. Other new designs available include the ballistic flotation vest - providing bullet-stopping power to naval customs officials, search crews, and boarding crews without endangering their lives should they fall into the water. Anchortex Corporation welcomes back the RBR line of ballistic protection products and looks forward to seeing more good things from it in the future.
