Palmetto State Armory has released the first batch of their hotly anticipated, USA made, PSAK-47s for purchase. They come with Magpul MOE furniture for $749.99. They are currently in stock but I expect that they will be sold out shortly.

Scalarworks LDM Repeat Zero Test
Scalarworks has produced a video that shows very graphically how well their mounts repeat zero after being removed and replaced on the rail. The test shows 100 shots being fired in groups of 10 with the optic being removed and reinstalled between each volley. The optic steadfastly returns to zero in each case. They didn’t just test the LDM on any old carbine. They mounted it on a .308 battle rifle known for being very hard on optics, the FN SCAR 17.
In my own testing, I saw no discernible zero shift when removing and replacing the mount.
Issue Box from Tactical Walls
The folks at Tactical Walls have a gift for hiding firearms right under your nose (you’ll get that joke in a moment). Their newest discreet firearm storage product is the Issue Box, a cleverly designed tissue box cover that looks innocuous in any room of your house.
The Issue Box looks like any other tissue box cover. Its clever design gives the appearance of holding a full size box of tissues when, in fact, it actually holds one of the shorter boxes. The creates a void under the tissues that can be filled with the handgun and magazine (or flashlight) of your choice which are held in place by a customizable foam pad.
You simply life the top of the Issue Box to access the handgun beneath. Access is very fast and easy.
