Kel-Tec CNC, Incorporated better known as Kel-Tec Weapons recently issued a recall for one of their most popular guns the Sub 2000 pistol caliber carbine.

The folks at Massif have created a base layer collection that not only protects from heat and flame exposure, but keeps the wearer warm and comfortable. I have worn other products made using Dupont’s Nomex before, but none have been as comfortable as the Massif Base Layer Collection.
