Check out the upcoming US Palm AK Grip at Soldier Systems.
This grip looks like just what the doctor ordered for AK users. I have used the Tango Down grip for the AR-15 that is the same shape. It does a great job of driving the hand high on the grip so you can really drive the rifle.
The MOE Illumination Kit is available at dealers now! These will make mounting a light on the MOE handguards even more user friendly. The item that most interests me is the cantilever rail. This rail will allow the user to mount the light slightly more forward on the handguards. This can make a big difference, especially for those who run their hands out further on the handguard (closer to the muzzle).
Hopefully, Magpul will offer this cantilever rail separately someday and get the midlength MOE handguards out to dealers soon.
Happy Mother’s Day from Jerking the Trigger!
I have been watching and waiting for this one for a while now. The Tactical Solutions TSG-22 is new .22LR conversion for Glocks and it brings with it some unique features that might just make it the premier conversion unit for people who really train with their Glocks.
The 3 most attractive features to me are also reasons that people who want a serious training weapon will want: it is machined from STEEL for realistic weight, it takes any Glock sights so you can replicate your serious gun, and it has last round hold open so you can train reloads realistically. On top of all that, Tactical Solutions makes some seriously accurate barrels so this one should be quite accurate.
If this is at least as reliable as comparable conversion units that are already on the market, it will be a huge success.
I have been using these Outdoor Products dry sacks for about a year now. They have been on several multi-night and day hikes and they have never let me down.
I was pretty skeptical of them at first due to their low cost, so I tested them before I trusted them to keep my stuff dry. I stuffed the bags full of t-shirts and let them sit under running water. The contents remained dry. Then I actually submerged the bags for 2 minutes and the contents still remained dry except for some very small areas where water came in at the closure. I was thoroughly impressed. For use inside of a backpack in the rain and even in quick accidental dunks, these are completely sufficient.
These have turned out to be an excellent way to keep gear dry and keep it organized. The bags are made of light weight rip stop nylon. They are light enough to use as organizers even when you don’t expect rain. The seams are fully taped and the closures do a good job of keeping water out if you follow the directions.
I used to just use a trash bag to keep my things dry in the rain but these smaller bags offer more organization potential. They will only set you back $10 for the 3 pack at Wal-Mart. For the price, you can’t beat them.
