Where Do Competition Shooting and Tactical Training Meet?

Trigger Time TV recently posted a video that explores how action shooting competition and tactical training can have a symbiotic relationship. Unless you have access to private land to shoot on, there are certain things that you just can’t do at many public ranges, like shoot on the move, draw from concealment, or engage targets in multiple directions. However, all of these things are common in action shooting competitions. There is tremendous training value to be found in these competitions if you approach them with a proper mindset.

Cavalry Manufacturing SCAR MK17S PMAG Lower

It looks like SCAR MK17S shooters are going to have some options when it comes to using PMAGs with their MK17S. Many of your are likely already familiar with the billet aluminum Handl Defense lower that allows the SCAR MK17S accept PMAGs but there is now a another manufacturer throwing their hat into the ring – Cavalry Manufacturing.

You might see the Cavalry Manufacturing name and think polymer but this lower will be made from aluminum. Unlike an AR-15 the lower receiver on the SCAR is not the serialized receiver so it can be purchased without having to go through an FFL. This is also why Cavalry Manufacturing, who no longer holds an FFL, can manufacture these receivers.

Look for more details on the Cavalry Manufacturing SCAR MK17S PMAG lower soon. Hat tip to SinistralRifleman.com for the information and video.

Rogue Gunfighter Store is Live

The Rogue Gunfighter web store is now on line. You have probably been following the development of the LVR like the rest of us and hoping it would be available soon. Well, the wait is over.

Rogue Gunfighter LVR

The LVR is an armor carrier that is really loaded with unique features. It seems to scale endlessly and easily. Without adding or removing a single pouch it can serve as a low visibility, slick carrier or carry up to 10 M4 mags, a handgun, and other gear! It comes with a removable MOLLE chest rig to further increase its load bearing potential.

The LVR isn’t all they have at the new store so head over to RogueGunfighter.com and check it out.
