OC Tactical continues to add cool new product lines from small makers to their store.  They are now carrying the RE Factor Tactical Tourniquet Holder and Tactical Trauma Shears Holder. You can check out the new items at OCTactical.com.

On a related note, RE Factor Tactical recently authored an informative post on how to configure a tourniquet for use whether you are using their holder or not. The post can be found on their blog.

 

Bad Blood Knives Push Dagger at TacStrike

The Sean Kendrick designed Bad Blood Knives line from HallMark Cutlery is really making a name for itself as a high value brand. TacStrike has been carrying them for sometime now and the customer feedback has been great.

They recently received their first shipment of the Bad Blood Knives Push Dagger and they are offering some special deals to help spread the word. If you purchase a Push Dagger and an Arch Frame Target Carrier, you will receive 50% off the Push Dagger. Additionally, any purchase of a Push Dagger will also include a Bad Blood Sticker, a TacStrike Pin-Up-Girl Sticker and a Pocket Constitution.

Push daggers can be a very intuitive and easy to retain option for those who are looking to add self defense knife to their EDC. The user needs only to grip the knife properly and make a fist.

Check out the Bad Blood Knives Push Dagger on TacStrike.com.

M-47BA AK-47 Magazine

This should be pretty exciting news to all of you AK shooters out there. The new M-47BA magazine is now available and you are going to flip when you see the features and the price.

The M-47BA is very similar to other magazines that have been on the market for some time, the so-called Bulgarian slab side magazines. These magazines have a pretty poor reputation for breaking feed lips because they are not reinforced with metal. However, the new Bulgarian M-47BA magazine has metal reinforcement in the locking lugs, spine, and feed lips – much like the venerable Bulgarian Circle-10 magazines.

While the Circle-10 magazines cost more than $30 a piece when you can find them, the new M-47BA mags cost $20 and they are available right now from K-VAR.

Green Lasers Coming Soon from Crimson Trace

People have been after Crimson Trace for years to come out with green lasers. Well, the wait is almost over. Crimson Trace will be introducing new green laser models for several different weapons in September.

Green lasers are much easier to see, especially in day light conditions. A green laser aiming point can generally be seen further away and more easily seen in bright conditions. They can also be handy for people like myself, who are color blind and don’t see red particularly well.

Check out CrimsonTrace.com for additional info.

 

The SLR-101 is Back!

The Arsenal Co. SLR-101 is one of the finest AKs (maybe the finest AK) that has ever been imported to the USA. They haven’t been imported for the last 10 years or so which drove prices up considerably on the secondary market. Thankfully, a batch of these rifles have been imported once again and K-VAR has them.

The SLR-101 has all the hallmarks of a great AK. I don’t get too wrapped around an axle about AR-15 fit and finish but with AK pattern weapons, fit and finish is more of an indicator of quality. The SLR-101 AKs that I have handled in the past have all exhibited some of the best fit and finish that I have seen on an AK. It features a chrome lined, hammer forged barrel with 14mm threads and a milled receiver.

The SLR-101 is a classic AK and it is great to see them available again at K-VAR.
