Patch Panel Moves Production In House

The Patch Panel is living the Americ… er, Canadian dream! Their business is growing and they a making moves to better meet the needs of their customers.

From Patch Panel:

Patch Panel announces move to complete in house production of customized Cordura patches, with enhanced offerings, and lead times.

In 2012, Patch Panel (WMI Sports Ltd.) began offering IR Name Tapes as an industry first. In time, this grew to call signs, name plates, unit patches, and now, their exclusive Identification Panels. Throughout this time, we went places we had never expected, including military unit, division, and regimental sized orders, as well as the opportunity to support many police units with roadside safety marking patches, as well as identification units. 

Starting as a small company, we naturally did not have the resources to produce items entirely in house, and were forced to outsource parts of our production to save costs. This meant that the lead times just kept growing to weeks, and even months. 

At the beginning of 2016, Patch Panel initiated the steps to move all production to our facility in Peterborough Ontario, where production quality could be controlled to exacting standards, and produced expediently by their Canadian Forces Veteran production team.

Today, we are happy to announce that long lead times are a thing of the past. Dropping from 10 weeks, to 10 days, and even an option to expedite to 2 business days. We are now able to provide the patches you need, in short order. All of these changes help us support our goals to generate more domestic manufacturing, as well as employ more veterans in our workforce.

Now Available – Scalarworks LDM/MRO

Lightweight optics deserve lightweight mounts and the Low Drag Mounts (LDM) from Scalarworks are the best I have used. Their mounts use a clever ratcheting wheel and detent system instead of a bulky lever to create a quick -detach, return-to-zero mount with a weight comparable to the lightest non-QD mounts available.

The LDM/MRO is now available. It features the same telescoping clamp, radically skeletonized design, and updated 7075-T6 construction as the Aimpoint Micro version of the LDM. The mounts weigh in at just 1.11 oz or 1.15 oz for the absolute and lower 1/3 co-witness models respectively.

Check out the LDM/MRO at Scalarworks.

Buyer Beware: Counterfeit Magpul MBUS Pro Sights

Magpul’s MBUS Pro Sights are among the finest sights ever made for the AR-15. I happen to think they are an excellent value compared to other sights on the market but they are certainly not inexpensive. Given their price and popularity, it shouldn’t be surprising that there are fakes out there.

If you come across a deal that is too good to be true, there is a good chance that it is… This recent thread on M4Carbine.net shows detailed images of authentic MBUS Pro Sights and counterfeits.
