Vortex Optics Viper PST 2.5-10×32 FFP

By on February 21, 2013 in Guns

Vortex Optics has really impressed me with the value of their Viper PST line. One of the newest additions to that line is the Viper PST 2.5-10×32 FFP. This is a fairly compact 2.5-10 magnification range optic that looks like it would be right at home on a light precision AR-15 build.

The Viper PST 2.5-10×32 FFP features a first focal place reticle so that you can range targets and have consistent hold overs throughout the entire magnification range. It has matched turrets and reticle measurements so you don’t have to do any conversions on the fly (you can choose between MOA or MRAD models). Speaking of turrets, this optic has customizable zero stops and you can even order custom ballistic matched turrets through Kenton Industries. The reticle is etched and illuminated.

I am really just scratching the surface on this optic. It looks like a whole lot of optic for the $899 MSRP (street prices will probably be around $800). Check out VortexOptics.com.

If you have challenge coins that you want to organize and protect, you will want to read on. JAVRAN has recently shown a series of photos of their upcoming Challenge Coin Book and it looks very, very slick.

The JAVRAN Challenge Coin Book holds 16 coins (4 pages that hold 4 coins each). It is constructed with 1/8″ closed cell foam to protect the coins. The front exterior of the book is covered with color matched loop material for displaying patches. There is a loop field on the interior for holding additional patches. There are also two small slip pockets that can be used to hold small, flat items like business cards.

Weapon Outfitters Heavy Buffer

By on February 20, 2013 in Guns

Every one of my carbines has an H buffer (or heavier in some cases). Simply put, adding some weight to the cycling mass in your AR-15 can smooth the recoil pulse and increase the reliability of your carbine.

Weapon Outfitters Heavy Buffer

The Weapon Outfitters Heavy Buffer is one of the many H buffer options that are available. It is unique because it is filled with powdered tungsten instead of steel and tungsten weights as you would find in a typical H buffer. Some claim that the use of powdered tungsten further smooths the recoil pulse. Oh, and if you didn’t notice… it is bright red!
