Fighter Design Featherlight Rifle Sling

By on October 16, 2015 in Guns, Tactical Gear

The Fighter Design Featherlight Rifle Sling looks like a typical padded sling at first glance but they have managed to tuck something pretty innovative into the pad. The sling is an adjustable 2 point design with side release buckles at each end of the pad.

This sling weighs less than 100 grams which is incredible for a padded 2 point sling. The exterior of the pad is made from lightweight rip-stop material that is durable but keeps weight to a minimum. The real weight saver can be found inside the pad. While most slings use foam, the Featherlight Rifle Sling uses expanded spacer mesh (often found on backpack back panels). That is very clever.

Check out the Fighter Design Featherlight Rifle Sling. They also have some cosmetic seconds for sale at just $10 a piece and their USPS First Class shipping is very cheap.

Krebs AC-15

By on October 16, 2015 in Guns

You know that guy in the internet AK meme that is saying “Nyet, rifle is fine”? Well, even he wants one of the new Krebs Custom AC-15s.

The AC-15 is a thoroughly modern AK with features that shooters will love but collectors and AK purists will hate (but secretly love). This Saiga based, 7.62x39mm chambered AK features a 14.25″ cold hammer forged barrel with a permanently attached Krebs 4 Prong Flash Suppressor. The extended Krebs UFM rail provides plenty of real estate for gripping the carbine and KeyMod for mounting lights, slings, etc.

Krebs Custom has worked out a way to reinforce the receiver cover so that there is no movement during recoil and the receiver covered mounted rear sight returns to zero after the cover is removed and reinstalled. There is a short scope rail where the rear sight would typically be, allowing the user to mount a micro red dot sight so it will co-witness with the iron sights.

The AC-15 comes with Magpul furniture. Like every Krebs gun I have ever handled, care has been taken to remove sharp edges. It is finished with black KrebsCoat.

This first run of AC-15s will be the only one to sport a folding stock mechanism. If you want a folder direct from Krebs, act fast. Check out the new AC-15 at Krebs Custom.
