Scorched Dark Earth from Mission First Tactical

Scorched Dark Earth is what happens when you use too much gasoline on your bonfire. It is also a new color offering from Mission First Tactical (MFT). Their Scorched Dark Earth is a response to their customers who requested a color that would match many of the other Flat Dark Earth accessories on the market.

Russian Red Dot Sight Battery Life Test

I prefer to use Aimpoint red dot sights on my AKs because I trust them. However, some people like to keep their AKs more original/authentic/correct. There are a wide variety of Russian made red dot sights for that type of shooter, but the run time on these sights can vary so widely that it is hard to make sense of all the options. Thankfully, a poster with the screen-name TX-Zen (of RussianOptics.net), who happens to be an AK guru, posted a fairly comprehensive run time test. You can check it out on the UW Gear discussion forum.

INFORCE Pistol Light

INFORCE, maker of the excellent WML, is showing a new pistol mounted light at the US Army Maneuver Conference. Details are scant at this time but one detail that INFORCE was able to share with me is that the weight is pretty scant, too. This new light weighs in at just 2.85 ounces. Additional details will have to wait until INFORCE completes their press release.

I am most interested to hear about the switching system. It appears to be switched via large paddles or buttons. It is definitely unique which is a common trait among many INFORCE products.

Keep an eye on the INFORCE website and Facebook page for details.
