Limited-Edition-AK-Sling-V4-Leather-Pull-Tab-600x400

This is the fourth version that they have produced. It features all the functionality of a VCAS but with some nostalgic, AK touches that really set it apart. The front attachment point is a brass, original AK style snap hook. All of the hardware is Plum colored nylon. The pull tab used to rapidly adjust the slings length is leather and the sling features a very cool, hand stamped “proof mark” that sets it apart as one of the Limited Edition AK Slings.

All of these features combine to create a sling that looks like a period AK sling but has modern functionality. I own one of the first editions and it is almost too great looking to use… almost.

Check out the Limited Edition AK Sling Version 4 at Blue Force Gear.

FBI Selects Aimpoint

The FBI HRT and DSU have both selected Aimpoints to be issues to their agents. Many people tend to think of the T-1 and T-2 with their extra water-resistance rating and night vision compatibility as the “professional” Aimpoints in the Micro series but apparently not even all professionals need those feature sets. The H-1 and H-2 are excellent optics in their own right and more than capable of duty use for those who don’t need NV capability.

From Aimpoint:

Chantilly, VA – November 24, 2015 – Aimpoint, the originator and worldwide leader in electronic red- dot sighting technology, has announced that the US Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is now issuing Aimpoint Micro Series Sights to agents in the Hostage Rescue Team (HRT) and Defensive Systems Unit (DSU).

The FBI conducted rigorous testing on optics from a wide variety of manufacturers. Following this selection process, the Aimpoint Micro T-2 and Micro H-2 were authorized as issued optics. The Micro T-2 was chosen for use by the HRT, and the Micro H-2 was selected by the DSU.

Contracts were awarded via competitive bidding process, and Aimpoint Dealers began shipments to the FBI in July, 2015.
