Trijicon MRO Preview

Trijicon’s new MRO is going to make some serious waves in the red dot optic market if the rumors about it are true. Information sheets have been leaked from a number of a sources so, at this point, we know a lot about the physical attributes of the MRO. It boasts features like flush adjustment knobs, 6 visible light settings, 2 night vision settings, a 2 MOA reticle, and a large 25mm objective in spite of its compact size. It weighs just 4.1 ounces thanks to its 7075 aluminum housing. Perhaps most notable, is that the MRO will join a small and elite club of optic with 5 year battery life.

Rumors regarding availability indicate that it will hit the market around the end of the month. There has been contradictory rumors about the price with some saying it will have a $500 MSRP and some saying a $500 retail price. It will be competitively priced if either of the pricing rumors is true.

If all of the above isn’t enough to get you excited… This optic is made in Michigan, USA.

Kryptek Slide Serrations from Customized Creationz

Customized Creationz’ upcoming Kryptek slide serrations use the distinctive polygonal elements of Kryptek’s camo patterns to create aggressive gripping surface on a handgun slide. The texture is deeply laser engraved on both the sides and top of the slide. The Kryptek pattern seems to lend itself very well to this treatment.

The second exciting bit of news is their new $10,000 stretch goal. They would like to produce these cards here in the USA at one of the biggest names in playing cards, Bicycle Playing Card Company. This will require a large minimum order that can only be met if they reach the stretch goal.

They have raised nearly $6K with 22 days left so the new $10K goal is certainly attainable. Check out the Kickstarter page and tell a friend!

E93 Shows You How to Install Magpul AKM MOE Hand Guards on AMD-65

You know Echo Nine Three for their line of sling plates and slings for the AK family of weapons. However, many do not know of their gunsmith services and long history with the AMD-65. They recently posted a video that shows how to install Magpul AKM MOE Hand Guards on an AMD-65 which is great news for AMD-65 owners considering that these are great guns with very few fore end options.

Two things are made abundantly clear in the video: the AMD-65 looks great in its new Magpul kit and Joe Elledge (head honcho at E93) is like some kind of a human milling machine with a rotary tool! My Dremel work never looks even close to that good.
