The Spec Warfare Coloring Book was designed with a dual-purpose mission. 1) To depict a more realistic snapshot of how our nation’s premiere warfighters appear, operate, and train. 2) To give something back. A portion of each sale of this publication will be donated to a charity that directly benefits Veterans of the United States and/or their families. Currently, sales of this item will benefit Folds of Honor. FOH’s mission is “To provide educational scholarships to spouses and children of America’s fallen and disabled service-members.”
20 pages (2 copies of each 10 images) are included with this booklet. You can download a free sample image to be printed out on the product page [link below] via the Mission Spec website. Printed in the USA on domestically sourced paper.
The new Muzzle Pad from Dark Star Gear is soft wedge for use with kydex holsters. It is designed to aid in comfort by cushioned the lower edges of the holster that can dig into the wearer and concealment by pushing the grip of the handgun into the wearer.
Soft wedges are not new. There are number of ways to improvise them and there are other purpose built wedges available. The ergonomic tear drop shape of the muzzle pad and availability of two different firmness levels makes the Muzzle Pad unique.
XTech Tactical, one of the fastest growing
firearms accessory manufactures, is now shipping its OEM47 10/30 (MSRP $19.95) as
an expansion of its “Commufornia Special” magazine line. Like the MAG47 10/30,
$1 for each magazine sold off the company’s website will go towards Gun Owners
of America to fight for gun rights. The magazines will also ship with a $5 off
annual membership offer to Gun Owners of America.
The XTech Tactical “Commufornia Special” offers a
field strippable 10rd magazine in a 30rd magazine body. This permits much easy
mag changes and insertion into the rifle, while still permitting the user to
clean the magazine. The term “Commufornia Special” is intended to remind and
encourage the company’s customers to get involved in protecting their rights as
firearms owners and supporters of the Constitution.
The OEM 10/30 will not function if its blocker is removed due to its reduced spring, and
the magazine is only marked as a 10-round magazine.
About the
OEM47 Line:
The OEM47 line is a result of numerous requests
from rifle manufactures for XTech Tactical to offer a lower cost AK 7.62×39
magazine option to include with the sale of their rifles. However, the company
would not settle for simply making a less expensive option without optimizing
the value and its competitive placement in the market. The OEM47 line features
an all polymer construction using a proprietary composite blend.
After 9 months of development the polymer permits
the 30rd, standard capacity, version of the OEM47 to pass drop tests that more
expensive US Made AK magazines will not.
The OEM47 line currently is only available as the
OEM47 10/30 with the standard capacity 30rd option soon to follow. The OEM47
line up offers a great value to those looking for magazines for recreational
and range use. For those looking for a battle-ready magazine, the MAG47 offers the
most advanced US manufactured AK magazine on the market. The MAG47 features the
most advanced polymer, stainless steel feedlips and locking lugs, where-as, the
OEM47 is an all polymer construction.
Forward Controls Design has released their new RBF (Recoil Buffer retainer, Forward controls). The RBF represents an improvement to a TDP spec buffer retainer pin. The pin portion is 10% thicker which will be of some comfort to those who have broken or bent buffer retainer pins in the past. It is machined from 17-4 stainless steel bar stock and heat treated.
Forward Controls Design views the RBF as cheap insurance.
When all the systems in an AR function properly, one could argue is that a reinforced buffer retainer isn’t necessary. We agree, except mix and match parts from different manufacturers and their varying adherence to TDP specs, tolerance staking is far from the exception. Many of us have had this inexpensive part break and toss its tip into the lower receiver, usually in the trigger group and cause a jam. RBF’s billet construction and reinforced tip aim to mitigate this, it could be viewed as cheap insurance, even if the way we make it is anything but cheap.
Ruger’s BX-15 magazines for the 10/22 are a great size to carry and manipulate but there are relatively few pouches available for them. Fortunately, Crusader Gear is now offering a single magazine pouch specifically for the BX-15.
The pouches feature a slick pouch construction with bungee retention. They are constructed from 1000D Cordura nylon. These pouches are MOLLE compatible and include a MALICE clip.
