TacStrike BSYF Target

By on January 17, 2013 in Tactics and Training

TacStrike knows why you train. They are trainers themselves. They know you are training to protect yourself and loved ones from bigger, stronger, younger, and faster foes. That is exactly why TacStrike has partnered with Pat Goodale of PFT (Practical Firearms Training) to create the BSYF (bigger, stronger, younger, faster) Target.

The hand drawn prototype target is shown with the production sample to give a better visual idea of where the perforations are located.

The BYSF target is sort of like an improved IDPA target. Its size is based on a 5′ 10″ male. It features 3 perforated aiming points that are roughly the size of an open hand. These three aiming points correspond to the 3 anatomical structures that can be used to produce a stop in a deadly force situation – the groin, high center of mass, and the head. The target is also perforated to indicate the arms and the point at which the torso and lower body meet.

This looks to be an excellent target and it will be available shortly. Check out TacStrike.

Don’t Stop Now

President Barack Obama handed down 23 executive actions and several proposals for new gun control legislation yesterday. While many people are likely breathing a sigh of relief after the executive actions were viewed as fairly mild compared to what many thought would happen, it is important to note that the the proposed legislation are far from mild. The proposals, which include universal background checks, a ban on certain assault weapons, magazine capacity limits, would represent a severe restriction on your 2nd Amendment freedoms.

So, while many of you are taking a deep breath, now is not the time to stop working. This is just the beginning of the next phase. The President has made his wishes known and now it is time for you to make yours known. He and his supporters will now be working on gathering votes and compromising but you need to let your Representatives know that you have no interest in new legislation or compromise.

I don’t want to discourage you from calling or sending personal letters to your Representatives, but there is no easier way to contact them than to use Ruger’s website.

Here are some other ways to get involved:

News from Brownells

By on January 16, 2013 in Guns

Brownells has gone mostly quiet on the current back order situation that has been brought on by the increased demand for magazines, AR-15 lowers, and ammo. They just released a statement to bring their customers up to date.

Happy New Year

It has hardly been a happy new year for those who are searching for AR-15 magazines.

From Brownells:

To Our Customers,

We have experienced a truly unprecedented volume of orders recently. Because your trust is most important to us, we want to assure you we are doing our very best to achieve our goal of same/next day shipping on your orders.

However, as a result of industry-wide shortage of certain products, many customers like you have ordered out of stock items and have been placed on backorder status. We are in daily contact with our key suppliers to get as much inventory as they are able to send so we can fill backorders as quickly as possible.

It is our promise to fill all backorders as quickly as possible. We will not cancel your backorder unless you specifically request us to do so. Orders will be filled and shipped based on the date they were received. We will ship backordered items as soon as inventory arrives in our warehouse. You may receive multiple shipments, but remember you only pay shipping once with Brownells.

In addition, we are developing an order update system to keep you informed on the status and anticipated delivery date of your order.

You are our #1 Priority, so please know we are doing everything possible to get your order to you as quickly as we can.

Best,
Frank & Pete Brownell

If you are looking for magazines and ammo, I still think Brownells is one the most reliable places that you can back order. They have closed back ordering on Magpul PMAGS but you can still back order the excellent Brownells USGI style AR-15 magazines. I know several people personally who have received their back orders relatively quickly from Brownells.
