Armageddon Gear Gunsmith Apron

If you are a gunsmith (or do things in your garage with a rotary tool that approximates gunsmithing), you have an acceptable excuse to wear and apron… In fact, you probably should wear one. It keeps your clothes clean and lets you keep your tools close at hand. That is the idea behind Armageddon Gear’s new Gunsmith Apron.

The apron is as bomb-proof as everything else Armageddon Gear makes with its 1000D Cordura construction. It has an assortment of pockets, a loop field for adding patches, and 3×4 PALS field for adding a pouch or just tucking in a pen. The waist strap has a side release buckle so you don’t have to tie and untie it every time you put it on or take it off.

It’s good enough for the rifle gurus at GA Precision (image below) so it is good enough for all you basement Dremel experts. Check out the Armageddon Gear Gunsmith Apron.

Tyrant Designs has released their latest aluminum billet AR-15 grip – the MOD Grip. Unlike their previous grips, the MOD grip features user-replacable polymer panels to adjust the size of the grip.

From Tyrant Designs:

The MOD Grip is our latest AR-15 Grip design. It has a body (3oz) made from aerospace grade 7075 aluminum, as well as modular (hence the name) front and back straps made from a polymer composite. The total package weighs in at 4 ounces. The front strap is designed for a 3-finger grip, while the back strap comes in either smooth (standard) or with a chevron design. Both series of back straps are available in medium and/or large.

There are a few reasons why we set after a modular design. Firstly, we wanted to offer a product that would be easy for the consumer to evolve. As time goes by we will continue to release new designs for both front and back straps. The end game is to offer a variety of options for the consumer, allowing them to have the exact grip they want. Secondly, we wanted to offer the operator a grip that covers both form AND function. We may be biased, but we believe the MOD Grip is the best looking AR-15 grip to ever be manufactured. But to be 100% functional in all conditions we chose to make the grip modular, and from a more traditional polymer composite. The straps themselves are resistant to climate change as well as offer the familiar feel one may get from other AR grips.

Both the aluminum body, as well as the straps are CNC’ed in our shop, located in the good ole USA. Nothing is molded or casted. The result is a premium grip that does not sacrifice quality.

We are very excited to release the MOD Grip, and will continue to innovate with all of our future designs!
