ESEE Passport Case

izulapassportcase

One of the things that makes ESEE great is that fact that they aren’t really a gear company. They sell gear to support their love of survival training and adventure travel. So, when you are a survival training, adventure traveling company first and a gear company second, you get to make some very unique products like the ESEE Passport Case.

This passport case really blends adventure travel and survival training in a very ESEE kind of way. The pouch itself features storage for your passport (of course), credit cards, cash, pen, and USB drive. It folds into a compact package and can be hung around your neck to keep it hidden (and safe from pick pockets). It will come with a Fisher Space Bullet Pen and a set of travel specific survival reference cards.

These should be available from ESEE dealers shortly. Visit JungleTraining.com for more details.

Magpul “Boulder Airlift”

Magpul has released details of the plan to put full capacity PMAGs in the hands of Coloradans that we mentioned yesterday. They are calling it “Boulder Airlift” and here are the details:

Magpul is proud to announce the “Boulder Airlift”, our program to make sure that responsible Colorado citizens have the opportunity to own standard capacity PMAGs prior to the potential implementation of pending legislation that would infringe on their Second Amendment Rights. The program will be open to all responsible CO residents, (with both billing and shipping addresses inside CO) and provide access to a limited quantity of PMAGs. Remember to contact members of the Senate and the Governor prior to ordering and urge them to oppose HB 1224.

Full details at http://www.magpul.com/Colorado

Similar to the Berlin Airlift, the Boulder Airlift will bring much needed supplies to freedom-loving residents trapped inside occupied territory. While we plan to initially use FedEx or UPS instead of aerial delivery, we figure that $5 flat rate shipping will make up for any loss of “style points.”

The increases we have made and continue to make in production capacity will allow us to open this program with very minimal impact on the number of PMAGs we are shipping to our dealers and distributors out of the state. We are also aware that Colorado is not the only state with existing or pending magazine capacity restrictions; we are working on programs for other affected states as well.

Jerry Miculek Practical Rifle DVD from Brownells

Jerry Miculek Practical Rifle

Thanks to the development of action shooting sports around the country, the tactical world is borrowing gear and techniques from the competition world (and vice versa) more than ever. This is especially true when it comes to practical rifle competition. It is easy to see why this symbiosis is happening. I dare you to watch this preview for the Jerry Miculek Practical Rifle DVD from Brownells and tell me he can’t teach even the most serious shooters something about driving a carbine between targets, shooting on the move, shooting positions, grip and stance, and the list goes on.

Do competition tactics translate perfectly to the realities of the battlefield, crime ridden inner city beat, or self defense situation inside your home? No, of course not, but the fundamentals of shooting quickly and accurately are on full display here and I suspect that anyone could learn a thing or two.

Check out the Jerry Miculek Practical Rifle DVD from Brownells.com.

BCM Takes a Stand

Bravo-Company-USA

Paul Buffoni, owner of Bravo Company USA and Bravo Company Manufacturing, has officially put his money where his mouth is. BCM was recently selected to replace the Milwaukee Police Department’s current patrol carbines. However, after learning that Milwaukee Police Chief Flynn testified in favor of a new Assualt Weapons Ban (see video below), BCM withdrew their bid and will no longer be doing business with the department except warranty work on the carbines that they already own. Kudos to Paul and BCM!

Readers, we have reached the point in this fight where the principles of your favorite manufacturers and retailers are going to start costing them money. It is incumbent on you to support the businesses that make these stands!
