Helikon-Tex presents: tailor-made kits for shooters

As the shooting season gains momentum, Helikon-Tex has decided to help shooters choose the essential gear and accessories tailored to the specific type of shooting sport they practice.

The manufacturer offers the following kits:

The Long Range kit — patience, discipline, and focus

Helikon’s offering for long-range shooters includes the Pillow and Large shooting bags for rifle stabilization, as well as the Backblast Mat Extended shooting mat for added comfort during extended periods behind the scope. Cleaning tools and accessories can be conveniently carried in the Mini Service Pocket and the Field Tote bag (available in six eye-catching camo patterns), while the rifle itself can be cleaned with ease on the Rifle Cleaning Mat. The Half Finger Mk2 gloves ensure a secure grip on the weapon, and the Trooper Nylon pants provide warmth for the legs and seat. Of course, long-range shooters don’t live by shooting alone; coffee breaks and conversations can be enjoyed in comfort thanks to the Traveler Enlarged chair.

3-Gun Set

You shoot under time pressure – your gear needs to be just as fast and reliable as you are. And when the temperature rises, a well-fitted pair of shorts will ensure complete freedom of movement.

Shotgun, pistol, rifle – everything has to perform in 3-GUN. With all that ammo, every 3-GUN shooter will appreciate a spacious Ammo Bucket, while the rest of your gear – even soaked clothes (because 3-GUN is no walk in the park – bad weather is no excuse) – will fit into the innovatively designed Alien bag. Fans of the movie franchise will know the reference… Magazines for your race-ready AR15 will slide smoothly into the Insert Competition Triple Carbine inserts and the MultiGun Rig vest. On the range, you need to look sharp – but not like the “tactical” crowd. The Range Hoodie and Treadstone jeans will help you strike the right balance, with a Competition Med Kit pouch at your belt, just where it belongs. After an intense session, your trusty Benelli (or maybe not?) and AR will need some TLC and recovery, which is where the Service Case comes in, complete with a convenient gun cleaning mat featuring a separate section for grease- and oil-covered parts.

IPSC Set

In IPSC, it’s the details that matter — and they make all the difference when it’s go time.

For fans of alphas, hangers, and shorts, Helikon-Tex offers the Cobra Competition Range Belt paired with an inner belt. Your fully kitted-out AR15 will travel safely in the SBR Carry case. At the same time, your CZ, Staccato, or any other high-end pistol will be right at home in the Multi Pistol Wallet, made of durable Cordura. The rest of your gear, mags, and ammo will fit neatly into the Rangemaster Gear Bag. To complete your “Alpha hunter” look, add the stylish UTL Polo – TopCool Lite, Range Tactical gloves, and Trooper Nylon pants. So go on, shooter — the range awaits!

Tactical Set

This kit strikes a balance between functionality and readiness for situations that demand an immediate response. It’s designed for those environments where complete control of your gear and yourself is key.

It’s designed for shooters who prefer harsh conditions, awkward shooting positions, and the melodic ring of steel gongs over the crisp sound of cloverleafs on paper targets. The Tactical kit enables comfortable carry of gear, ammo, and magazines while maintaining that all-important Tacticool Factor. Your ammo and mags ride comfortably in the Training Mini Rig – Cordura, paired with a belt setup that includes the Competition Modular Sleeve, Competition Nautic Shooting Belt, and the Non-Slip Comfort Pad. Naturally, the belt must be properly outfitted with a complete set of Competition Rapid Carbine and Pistol Pouches, along with a cheerfully swinging Competition Dump Pouch. The Mission Bag has enough room for your accessories, ammo, and spare magazines, while your eyes and hands stay protected with LanRay Shooting Pro Glasses and Urban Tactical Mk2 Gloves. And what would a tactical range-goer be without a proper uniform? Helikon has you covered there too, with its well-known MCDU Combat Shirt and MCDU Pants (PolyCotton Stretch Ripstop) in the season’s trendiest camo, Vintage ERDL / Olive Green.
