Grey Ghost Gear and Noveske Team Up

Noveske and Grey Ghost Gear sitting in a tree… K I S S I N G! It looks like Grey Ghost Gear and Novekse Rifle Works are gearing up to make some beautiful music. Noveske AR-15 upper receivers are already available at Grey Ghost Gear but what I am really looking forward to is seeing the exclusive tactical gear that is created for Noveske.

From Grey Ghost Gear…

How do you determine the value of badass2? Can it be reckoned, or is it incalculable?

You’re about to find out.

Grey Ghost Gear (which is bad ass) has teamed up with Noveske (which is equally bad ass). How bad ass is that?

Effective immediately, Grey Ghost Gear will be carrying Noveske uppers and soon you’ll be seeing complete rifles.

Asked to give some background to the relationship between the two innovative companies, GGG Despotrix-in-Charge Lindsey Lea advises, “The love story began with my very first SHOT Show ever. That’s where I met John and Sheri. We’ve been friends since then and now that that Grey Ghost has decided to carry weapons, Noveske was the obvious choice—both out of our respect for John and of course for the obvious fact that they’re superb rifles.”

Buyers will see a Noveske tab on the Grey Ghost website from which to choose from a variety of Noveske models, including the Infidel, Rogue Hunter in 16” and 18”, some of the 10” uppers in both 5.56 and 300BLK and others.

Noveske Rifle Works’ Sheri Johson echoes Lea’s sentiment. “The people at Grey Ghost Gear are some of the best I know, really,” Sheri says. I’ve been a fan forever. When they came to me about high quality AR parts…well, it was obvious we were going to do it.”

Rumor has it Grey Ghost Gear may reciprocate by building a Noveske-specific line of gear like concealed carry messenger bags, a 3-gun setup and the like. You’ll want to watch for that.

Fans of both GGG and Noveske are also well advised to keep an eye on both companies’ social media. There will be a joint giveaway soon involving both Facebook pages and possibly Instagram—prizes will be Noveske uppers and GGG goodness.

Recommmended Reading: Elzetta Explains FL1 Standards for Flashlights

Flashlight shopping used to be an absolute free-for-all. Some manufacturers advertised the somewhat deceptive bulb lumens when describing output while others advertised the more honest “out the front” lumens based on a solid guess on the light losses to the reflector and lens or optic. The best manufacturers measured actual output in integrating spheres and then undersold the true output. You had some companies pushing candlepower while others pushed lumens. Some advertised total runtime until the batteries were drained while others measured runtime to 50% output (or some other percentage). It was madness.

The FL1 standards for flashlights are a huge step in the right direction. We, as consumers, now have access to standardized information about flashlight performance where as before we were stuck trying to figure out how to compare apples to apples. However, in order to be as informed as possible, you have to understand the FL1  standards. Elzetta just created a post on their blog that takes a lot of mystery out of the new standards and I highly recommend that you check it out.

Freeman Outdoor Group 451 Chopper

Freeman Outdoor Group’s 451 line of knives is growing in size and number. The new 451 Chopper, with its 6.5″ blade (11.8″ overall), is their largest knife yet.

Freeman 451 Chopper

The 451 Chopper is ground from 3/16″ thick LSS PGK steel. It features aggressively textured G-10 handle scales and a Cerakote finish. The 451 Chopper comes with a Spec Ops sheath with a custom formed plastic insert.

The drop point blade profile has a 3/4 height, flat primary grind with a 40 degree secondary grind. The blade looks very distinctive with its swedge grind and long fuller. The tang is exposed at the pommel for hammering.

Check out the new Freeman Outdoor Group 451 Chopper.
