Howard Leight Impact Sport Electronic Hearing Protection

By Matt on June 6, 2013 in Tactics and Training

A friend of JTT is prepping for his first carbine course and asked me if I had tips for him as he prepared. I mentioned that I wish I had purchased electronic hearing protection sooner than I did because it makes it so much easier to hear the instructor in a course even though you are at the other end of the line. He just sent me an email to say that the Howard Leight Impact Sport hearing protection is on sale at Brownells so he picked up a set.

The Howard Leight Impact Sport is one of the best deals around on electronic hearing protection. The ones that I have been around have all held up very well, even in the rain in spite of them not being advertised as water resistant. They have a very nice low profile that fits under helmets and won’t get in the way of your cheek weld. They are comfortable to wear and OC Tactical even makes covers for them.

If you are planning on taking any type of firearm training, these are money well spent. Check out the Howard Leight Impact Sport Electronic Earmuffs on Brownells.com.

SerePick Stainless Steel Entry Cards

By Matt on June 6, 2013 in EDC, Preparedness, Survival

SerePick just rolled out one of their latest discreet lock bypass tools – Stainless Steel Entry Cards. There are two different versions (V1 and V2) that are identical to the Titanium Entry Card models that are sold by ITS Tactical and Vigilant Gear except the material (stainless instead of titanium).

The cards are identical in size to a credit card which makes them very easy to carry on your person or in your gear. They come with a vinyl storage sleeve. I have both versions in hand for a review so stay tuned.

Both versions of the Stainless Entry Card are available from SerePick. The V1 Entry Card is available from ITS Tactical. The V2 is available from Vigilant Gear.

Business End Customs Glock Mods

By Matt on June 6, 2013 in Guns

I have talked about Business End Customs before on JTT. BEC recently caught my eye again with a new and innovative mod that they are offering.

The Glock 30 frame shown above has a Grip Force Adapter permanently attached under the “BEC texture.” I am a big fan of the Grip Force Adaptors, especially Glock’s compact models. I have never seen one integrated like this.

BEC has also under cut and rounded the trigger guard, and added magwell cutouts on this particular G30 frame.

Austere Provisions Compacy CORE Panel

By Matt on June 6, 2013 in EDC, Tactical Gear

The CORE Panel from Austere Provisions Company is a simple concept (the best concepts are simple). It is small MOLLE compatible panel that can serve as a stand-alone organizer or a drop-in organizer for other packs and bags.

Mike has shown earlier prototypes of the CORE panel before but this new one has one obvious and exciting change. It uses Blue Force Gear’s MOLLEminus Technology!

In addition to the MOLLE fields on each side, the CORE has an internal pocket. Its height is similar to a chest rig or PC cummerbund so most standard pouches will fit it well.

Before you ask… The FDE Sentinel Designs Glock Magwell shown in the pic was part of a special run. There are no plans to offer them in the near future.

MOLLE Safe Panel from Wilde Built Tactical

By Matt on June 6, 2013 in Guns, Tactical Gear

Space is often at a premium in a gun safe. The MOLLE Safe Panel from Wilde Built Tactical can help you get organized.

Wilde Built Tactical custom makes these panels to your dimensions. The panels feature full coverage with MOLLE webbing. They are made from 1000D nylon with a Velcro backing and grommets if you choose to mount the panel with screws.

If you are like me, and already have a ton of MOLLE pouches laying around, this can help you organize both the pouches and the small gear that tends to clutter your gun safe.

Check out the MOLLE Safe Panel from Wilde Built Tactical.
