BCM Mk15 Tritium Watch (Limited Edition)

By on October 28, 2015 in EDC

When a gun company comes out with a branded watch, most watch-guys probably roll their eyes. They are usually just rebranded fashion watches with all the quality of a trade show giveaway. BCM went a different route. Their new BCM Mk15 Tritium Watch is certainly not a cheap quartz rebrand. It is their design from the ground up and they even own the tooling!

This watch isn’t cheap but, in the world of watches, it isn’t expensive either. Judging by the feature set, they are actually delivering some very solid value for the asking price. Things like sapphire crystals with double AR coatings, Swiss movements, tritium, and 316L PVD cases built like this don’t come cheap. Check out the limited edition BCM Mk15 Tritium Watch.

Support the Hearing Protection Act

By on October 27, 2015 in Guns

The fact that silencers (sound suppressors) are included under the NFA is absolutely ridiculous. They are regulated on the basis of ignorance, purposeful misinformation, and Hollywood shaped perception. These tools that have so long been portrayed as assassin’s tools are no more than safety equipment for the shooter and those around the shooter. There is finally new legislation that recognizes that and seeks to remove silencers from the NFA which would, by default, lower prices.

To learn more about the Hearing Protection Act (HPA), you can visit the American Suppressor Association which an advocacy group that has worked to make the HPA a reality. Consider joining, or at the very least, signing up for their email newsletter so you can stay informed about how you can help ensure the HPA becomes law.
