From TexAgs Sponsor Republic Brand:



Republic Brand - Made in Aggieland
My husband, Kyle Greenwood '92, is using his gift for military product design to create a new line of "Texas Lifestyle" products made with high quality U.S. MIL-SPEC materials. This includes bow cases, AR cases, luggage and bag lines, John Deere Gator(TM) seat covers, doors and gun racks. After approaching GameGuard, the "Official Camo of Texas", we are integrating this camouflage pattern as part of our unique product line. Republic Brand will begin taking pre-orders June 1st for its initial product offering with additional products launching throughout the summer and fall.

Our Manufacturing History
In 2004, a deploying Aggie Corps buddy asked Kyle, Company S-2, to make a HMMWV (Humvee) turret seat to sit in for the 10+ hour convoys across Iraq. Kyle accepted the challenge and invented the "Cooper Sling" to let his buddy test at Fort Hood. Other gunners came to watch and soon wanted to trade in their thin seatbelt type straps for Kyle's improved version.



Fast forward to 2009 and we had successfully designed, produced and supplied ballistic blankets to the entire fleet of Marine Corps LAVs (Light Armored Vehicles). The Marine Corps MRAP (Mine Resistant Ambush Protected) vehicles were being urgently manufactured by the hundreds every month and flown into Iraq. Our seat and restraint system and proprietary energy-attenuating gunner platforms were going with them. BMI Defense Systems became the world's leading authority on gunner turret protection for ground vehicles and still is today. This success allowed BMI Defense Systems to earn the number 2 position for the 7th Annual Aggie 100 in 2011.

Gig'em & God Bless!
