The new ZRX Tactical Flashlight Mount from Elzetta is now available. This is an interesting mount for its use of multiple materials in its construction. Elzetta was able to make use of polymer for the rail interface. This keeps cost and weight down (only 1.1 ounces). The flashlight rings are hard anodized aluminum and the hardware is steel.
The ZRX Tactical Flashlight Mount is available at Elzetta.com.
Brownells has their Magpul PMAG 10 packs on sale for 99.99 and there are coupon codes out there that will get you free shipping if you look around a bit. That is not too shabby.
You probably haven’t heard of SKUNKWERKS 13 yet, but I suggest you take notice. They have just gone live with their new website and Kalashnikov Optics Platform and I suspect you are going to hear a lot about them.
The Kalashnikov Optics Platform (or KOP) is incredibly simple and I mean that as a great compliment. It is optic mounting solutions for AKs that utilize a series of different mounts that are attached to the AK in place of the rear sight via an over-sized pin. According to SKUNKWERKS 13 this system allows mounts to be swapped quickly and allows them to retain zero all while still allowing the rifle to be field stripped as normal and without interfering with folding stocks.
There are already a wide variety of mounts available. There is a magnified optic mount that utilizes the excellent split rings from LaRue Tactical, standard 1913 spec rails in various lengths, a Trijicon RMR mount, and an Aimpoint Micro mount. Many of the mounts have an integrated rear sight that replaces (and improves) the rear sight that they replace.
The KOP seems to have a ton of potential. You can find more information at Skunkwerks13.com.
The PIG SYSTEMA is a very ambitious and extremely impressive concept from SKD Tactical. SYSTEMA is an entire modular load bearing system that consists of a number of modular components, many of which can be stand-alone components, that combine to make everything from a slick, 11 ounce plate carrier to a full featured load carrying armor setup.
There are two main components to the system: the Brig Plate Carrier and the Brig Chest Rig. The Brig Plate Carrier weighs only 11 ounces on its own. The Brig Chest Rig can be used as a stand alone chest rig with the addition of an optionally available harness or in conjunction with the Brig Plate Carrier. There are also tons of other modular components like hydration carriers and modular packs that can be integrated into the plate carrier or chest rig.
I am just scratching the surface here. This system is so scalable it is ridiculous. Check out the PIG SYSTEMA on SKDTAC.com.
The SpecOpShop SOU (Special Ops Uniform) will be available soon in the LandCamo ABD Patterns. The SOU is now available in a wider array of specialty camo options than any other uniform that I know of. They are available in Woodland Camo, various PenCott Camo patterns, Multicam, 3 Color Desert, A-TACS, and more.
SpecOpShop also recently updated their website to be much more user friendly. Check out SpecOpShop.com.
