Battle Arms Development is showing renders of their newest lever – the Short Hybrid. This will make a total of 8 lever options for the excellent Battle Arms Development – Ambidextrous Safety Selector. The new lever was designed in collaboration with Military Moron and production will start soon. This looks like the most ideal choice for the trigger finger side of the BAD-ASS yet.
Stay tuned to the Battle Arms Development website and Facebook Page for details.
Some of you may not know that Chris Costa and Travis Haley are no longer part of Magpul Dynamics (the training wing of Magpul). Both have moved on to their own individual ventures. In spite of these high profile departures, Magpul Dynamics is in good hands.
From left to right: Jon, Duane, and Steve
The newest member of the team is Jon Canipe. Jon has impeccable credentials but, more importantly, he is an excellent instructor by all accounts. I haven’t trained with Jon, but he did take time out of busy schedule to do an interview on this very blog back when JTT was just starting out. Jon joins Duane Liptak Jr., Steve Fisher, and Caylen Wojcik, all noted instructors themselves.
You can read more about the current Magpul Dynamics staff in their industry forum on M4Carbine.net.
I have received a few emails inquiring when the MPIL (Marker Panel, Individual, Lightweight) from Battle Systems would be available again. I have good news. The new production version of the MPIL available soon.
The production version features a few changes from the original pre-production version that I reviewed. The production version has new packaging, coyote brown para-cord attachment points, and an improved IR reflective patch.
ITS Tactical will have the exclusive release of the production MPIL in the next several days. Stay tuned.
I have been talking about the NavELite magnetic compass quite a bit lately because I think it has the potential to be an extremely functional navigational aid. If you have seen all of the coverage of the NavELite but you still aren’t quite sure what it is all about, then you will want to check out this demo video that NavELite recently posted.
VTAC has introduced a new version of their Ultra Light Vertical Grip. The original version features quick detach capability. The new version does away with the QD functionality for those who don’t need it.
