OTD LLC Nub Mod for Safariland ALS Holsters

By on May 16, 2016 in EDC, Guns

Safariland’s ALS holsters are some of the easiest to use level II security holsters available. ALS holsters release the firearm by means of a small nub that is pushed to the rear by the user’s strong side thumb during the draw stroke. The nub, as designed by Safariland, generally works pretty well but for users who want to improve the drawstroke, there is the OTD LLC Nub Mod.

The Nub Mod is a two piece, hard anodized aluminum, bolt-on attachment for the stock ALS nub. It enlarges the nub and improves the angle at which the user’s thumb interfaces with the nub. Installation is very straight forward and requires no permanent modifications to the holster.

The Nub Mod is available in two versions. The first is the standard version used for ALS level II holsters. The second version is also compatible with ALS level II holsters but has an angled relief cut to add clearance for the hood found on Safariland’s level III SLS holsters. It is also available with FDE or Grey finishes to match your holster.

If you are using your ALS hoslter in a law enforcement or security role there is reason to give careful thought to making the gun easier to get out of the holster. Many shooters, myself included, use ALS holsters as a way to provide some extra retention during outdoor pursuits/work and this modification is a no-brainer for those activities.

Crimson Trace Conducts Classes Across America

By on May 14, 2016 in Guns

I always appreciate companies that don’t just sell products but that go the extra step to educate the consumer – not just about the features and benefits of their products but the best practices for using them. That is what Crimson Trace is doing all across the country.

Crimson Trace Classroom range training

From Crimson Trace:

Crimson Trace, the world’s most recognized and purchased brand of laser sights and tactical light systems for self-defense firearms, has opened the doors of gun shop and range classrooms across America. The new Crimson Trace Classroom™ program has already graduated nearly 1,000 students with more classes scheduled. Those class graduates work at the counters of stores and ranges from the Carolinas to California—and all points between.

The educational and informative two-part classroom includes an in-class session where students learn details about lasers, Crimson Trace product categories, and much more. Participating students learn about laser sight fundamentals, accuracy, protection, training and improving confidence.

A second segment of the Crimson Trace Classroom training places students on the gun range where they shoot revolvers equipped with Crimson Trace laser sights. One segment of this intense range session includes shooting with glasses specially designed to inhibit vision, and the students learn to rely on the laser sight for aiming. It’s a very popular course that helps gun shop staff better discuss laser sights with customers—and those discussions are based on experience. Stores that have included the FREE training for staff are reporting better prepared staff—and better served customers. The staff who complete the course also receive a certificate suitable for framing.

Stores and gun ranges interested in scheduling a FREE Crimson Trace Classroom event are encouraged to call 800-442-2406. Most classes are conducted by the eight Crimson Trace regional sales managers located across America along with other Crimson Trace staff.

For more than two decades, Wilsonville, Oregon based Crimson Trace has provided America’s gun owners, and military units and law enforcement officers around the globe, with the world’s largest selection of award-winning laser sights and tactical light products. Crimson Trace now offers more than 225 products and is widely recognized as the world’s leading brand of laser sights for firearms. Full details can be obtained by visiting www.crimsontrace.com or by calling 800-442-2406.

Keep an Eye on SB Tactical

SB Tactical LogoYou are going to want to keep an eye on SB Tactical, especially at the upcoming NRA Show. They are making some major moves including a new branding, new partnerships, and new products that will continue to push them deeper into the AR-15 pistol PDW market.

SB Tactical (and Sig before them) is basically responsible for the resurgence of the AR-15 pistol. You can expect them to add even more momentum to that market space coming out of the NRA Show especially as it pertains to the AR-15 pistol as a PDW – a concept we have discussed frequently here on JTT. I have been given a sneak peak of what’s coming and it’s exciting.
