Vertx Airflow Phantom Ops Pant at PredatorBDU

Vertx Fighter Design

PredatorBDU just released one of the first detailed videos about the new Vertx Airflow Phantom Ops Pant. The licensing of Fighter Design’s Airflow tech by Vertx was some of the most exciting news leading into the SHOT Show and they didn’t disappoint at the show. Every report that I have heard has been very positive regarding the way air moves through these pants.

The Vertx Airflow Phantom Ops Pant is available for pre-order at PredatorBDU.

TacStrike FRTC

TacStrike-LogoTacStrike hit a homerun with their Flat Rate Box Targets and the hits keep coming with the introduction of their Flat Rate Target Carrier (FRTC). The aptly named FRTC is a target carrier that can be shipped two to a USPS Flat Rate Box. The legs of the FRTC can be made from the scraps of the 1×2″ or 2×2″ lumber (not included) that you install for the uprights.

The FRTC is an important addition to the Flate Rate Box line because, as fun and productive as shooting steel can be, you have to break out the paper once in a while to stay honest. Steel gives immediate feedback and helps you keep a brisk pace on the training range but paper makes tracking the quality of your hits far easier. With the addition of the FRTC, TacStrike will now have a complete training target systems with components that are very affordable and can be shipped affordable.

Check out the FRTC at TacStrike.

IMI 77GR OTM 5.56X45

IMI 77gr

MK262 is a proven performer but it doesn’t come cheap. Most MK262 ammunition cost nearly $1 a round and that is why it is nice to see Widener’s Reloading bring an MK262 clone to market at a lower price (as low as $.78 per round).

According to Widener’s, this IMI 77GR OTM 5.56X45 is made on the same lines as the IDF’s MK262 and the only difference between this and real deal MK262 is some additional sealant. I have shot quite a bit of IMI ammo over the years and it has been universally good so I have high hopes for this ammo.
