Battle Arms Development has released a new image of the production prototype for their upcoming MRO mount. This mount, being a production prototype, should be fairly close to the actual production piece. The radically skeletonized design is extremely lightweight (just .78 oz including screws) but doesn’t skimp where it counts with plenty of rail grabber surface area and two cross-bolts.
Joe Flowers, Bushcraft Global head honcho, is no stranger to knife design. Several successful designs have been pulled from his mind and put into steel. The latest such design is the Brakimo that is being produces by TOPS Knives with Bushcraft Global.
Details are still sparse at this time but the knife features micarta slab handles with a bow drill divot and a massive lanyard loop which is probably a good thing if you are working over water in the jungle. The knife also features a drop point blade with a scandi or modified scandi grind probably similar to what you will find on the TOPS BOB Field Knife.
EDIT: We have received some additional specs.
Unity Tactical has been exhibiting their new CLUTCH Belt at SHOW Show. The belt is designed to carry and organize a wide array of gear like your handgun, magazines, medical gear, and more in a form that can be both overt and covert. The video below dives deep into the details of the CLUTCH. This thing makes Batman jealous.
You may not be at SHOT Show but at least you can save 10% on your entire order at RE Factor Tactical. They are running a SHOT Show sale that runs through Friday. Just used code SHOTSHOW when you checkout at REFactorTactical.com.
I have been very pleased with the Gorilla Ammo products that I have used though my sample size is admittedly small. Their 77gr Sierra Matchking load has shot very well for me. Now they have announced that they are moving into the high end self-defense ammo market with a selection of solid copper projectile based offerings.
The development of solid copper projectiles has lead to major advancements in terminal ballistics. It is nice to see more companies coming online with options like these.
From Gorilla Ammo:
Vero Beach, FL, – January 20, 2016 – Gorilla Ammunition introduces the new Silverback product line, featuring solid copper machined projectiles in 380 ACP, 9mm, 45 ACP, and 300 BLK. These technologically advanced projectiles create insane temporary and permanent wound cavities with controlled expansion to optimum depths.
“The growth of Gorilla Ammunition has been tremendous over the past year. We are very excited to release our new Silverback Line at SHOT Show. These lead free, CNC lathe turned copper projectiles are engineered and tuned for maximum expansion with penetration depths dictated by user requirements.
