Orange and Coyote Brown MPIL MK1

Coyoteish MPIL

Battle Systems just released a limited number of Coyote Brown-ish and orange MPILs. These panels are designed for those who don’t need two color panels. Battle Systems is calling the color Coyote-ish because the fabric is so shear that the color from the orange side shows through making the coyote color appear slightly off. They are being sold at a special price and when they are gone… they are gone.

UW Gear Swampfox MKII in Woodland

Woodland Swampfox

I have a thing for Woodland Camo and I am really glad to see it making a bit of a come back. This UW Gear Swampfox MKII makes me a bit weak in the knees. UW Gear has recently added Woodland to their color options for all their gear.

Feinstein AWB Bill Introduced

Dianne Feinstein unveiled her proposed Assault Weapons Ban yesterday and in her own words…

“The purpose of this bill is to dry up the supply of these weapons overtime, therefore there is no sunset on this bill.”

You can read more about the legislation on Senator Feinstein’s website. Alex Pappas of The Daily Caller was able to take a picture of the list of firearms that are specifically banned by this bill.

You probably know what I am going to say next – now is not the time to back down. If you have already contacted your representatives, do it again. If you haven’t yet, by all means do it right now! There is no easier way to contact them than to use Ruger’s website.

 

Echo93 Gunsmithing and CAV-15 Services

You know Echo Nine Three for their excellent AK Sling Plates but did you also know that they offer general gunsmith services? Joe Elledge, the owner of E93 has been working as a gunsmith since 2000.

Joe was a certified armorer for the CAV-15 lower receivers back when they were being produced by Cavalry Arms. He developed a series of modifications for the CAV-15 that Cavalry Arms liked so much that they covered his mods under their warranty. The mods included shortening the stock to a length more fitting a carbine, fitting a new butt plate, under cutting the trigger guard to allow a higher grip, and stippling the grip.

These mods are more interesting than ever thanks to the availability of the CAV-15 MKII lowers from GWACS Armory. GWACS Armory has managed to stay above water during this time of panic buying and is still able to get their lowers out the door in just a few days. E93 is now, once again, in the CAV-15 modification business.

E93 charges $85 for the stock cut and butt pad fitting or $125 for the entire package listed above. I have a lower on its way for Joe to work his magic on and I will be completing a review when it returns.
