Hey guys I just ordered 2 exotac nanostrikers and they only come with a tiny wrist wrap. I was told it only takes small guage paracord so I wanted to know where I can find a length of this to make a neck lanyard?

thanks!

I think you are looking for shock cord.
Supplycaptain.com sells it.
 
+1 to SupplyCaptain.com

I get all my paracord from them. The "Small gauge" paracord they mentioned is probably Type I Paracord or utility cord on SupplyCaptain's site. They're only rated at 100lbs of load, unlike the 550lbs of Type III paracords. On the other hand, they're much smaller in diameter.

If you'er making a neck lanyard of it, I doubt you'd be putting 100lbs of load on it.... at least I hope not!
 
fwiw you can fit gutted paracord thru the hole

It seems they sell 3/16th & 1/8th - any idea which one will fit? I'd prefer to go as thick as I can, but not sure if it will fit the nanostriker?

I also have the nano match tube as well - will this take regular paracord, or do I need the shock cord for this one too?

What is shock cord compared to paracord btw?

Thanks.
