TDI-Arms is working in conjunction with AK Operators Union to develop a new lower handguard for VEPR FM/VEPR12/Stamped RPK variants. The new TDI-Arms VPR-L VEPR Lower Handguard works with the Ultimak upper handguard rail and TDI-Arms claims it has no effect on your rifle’s zero since it does not contact the barrel. The VPR-L features M-LOK slots so you can add compatible accessories and a QD sling swivel socket.
Look for the TDI-Arms VPR-L VEPR Lower Handguard to be available in about 25 days. It will retail for under $100.
When you think TOPS Knives, you probably don’t think of kitchen knives but you probably should. Their Frog Market Special (FMS) has been in their line up for years and it is right at home in the kitchen. Now, the FMS has a big brother – the Frog Market Special XL.
From TOPS Knives:
The highly anticipated release of the Frog Market Special XL is here. It has all of the aesthetics and function of the original in a larger package. Many users out there have this knife in their kitchen, camp kit, and some have even carried the FMS as an EDC knife. The longer blade and handle, and the slightly thicker steel give the XL an advantage in certain food prep tasks. “The Frog Market special and XL are both great knives. Almost every TOPS employee has the original in their kitchen and the XL will quickly follow suit,” said Craig Powell, General Manager of TOPS Knives. The Frog Market Special XL can be purchased by itself or as a combo with the smaller Frog Market Special.

Aridus Industries has opened pre-ordering for their upcoming CROM – Co-witness Ready Optic Mount. This mount is designed to mount an Aimpoint Micro on Remington shotguns or the popular Beretta 1301 Tactical. There are certainly other Aimpoint mounts available for shotguns but the CROM has a unique feature that sets it apart. The mount has a windage adjustable ghost ring sight built in that can be co-witnessed with the red dot sight.
Check out the CROM at Aridus Industries.
