Mission First Tactical Battlelink Minimalist Stock (BMS)

By on October 20, 2012 in Guns, Tactical Gear

Mission First Tactical is showing off the latest addition to their BattleLink series of stocks – the BattleLink Minimalist Stock or BMS. The BMS joins the BattleLink Utility and BattleLink Utility Low Profile Stock (which we reviewed).

MFT tested this production prototype of the stock until it cracked.

The BMS is certainly a light weight stock. It weighs in at under 4 ounces and MFT claims that it is the lightest on the market. Don’t let the word “minimalist” and its light weight make you think this stock lacks features. This stock retains much of the functionality for which the BattleLink stocks are known. It retains the ability to accept the Mission First Tactical Foretrex Upper Mount. The BMS also has several sling mounting points including a QD sling swivel socket near the forward part of the stock. It also has the angled buttpad which I liked so much when reviewed the BatteLink Utility Low Profile Stock.

Check out the new Mission First Tactical BattleLink Minimalist Stock.

UW Gear Swampfox

By on October 19, 2012 in Tactical Gear

Stop the presses! UW Gear just introduced their next chest rig – the Swampfox.

The most obvious feature of the new rig is the split front design that allows for easy donning and doffing. I am a sucker for split front chest rigs. It also has the same great pouch and flap design as the excellent Minuteman MKII Chest Rigs. Both sides of the rig have a 3×3 panel of PALS webbing and the “H” harness is the same great design that UW Gear is known for. I have also been told that UW Gear is working on a hydration carrier that will integrate with their harness which is great news because split front plate carriers and hydration carriers go together like PB&J.

The new rig will be on UWGearInc.com in the next few weeks. In the mean time, you can discuss the Swampfox on the UW Gear Discussion Forum.

TacStrike Arch Frame Target Carrier Price Reduction

TacStrike knows that every politician that is running for office wants to get into your wallet but they don’t want that to keep you from training with great gear. They have lowered the price on their Arch Frame Target Carriers to make them even more affordable. These target carriers are great due to their arched leg design that allows them to be stable even on surfaces like gravel or sod.

Check out the Arch Frame Target Carrier on TacStrike.com.

Brownells has launched their new site. I am pretty habituated to the old site so this new site will take some getting used to but I like what I have seen so far. The product pages are cleaner and easier to use with larger images. The search is more prominent and the categories are easier to navigate. Check out the new Brownells.com.
