B.E. Meyers 249-Saker Price Reduction

The B.E. Meyers 249-Saker (249S), the Saker suppressor mount version of the venerable 249F flash suppressor, has been selling well. Well enough, in fact, that B.E. Meyers has been able to increase production and reduce prices. They are now available for $89.95 which is actually less expensive than the standard, non-suppressor mount 249F and very competitively priced among premium suppressor mounts.

Manticore Arms CZ Scorpion EVO Slider Stock Prototype

Manticore Arms released an image of their latest Slider Stock prototype for the CZ Scorpion EVO. This most recent iteration should be close to the actual production stock that will go into production soon. I’ve always appreciated Manticore Arms willingness to support niche firearms with great quality accessories.

Magpul DAKA Pouches

One of the coolest things about watching Magpul is that their big ideas have never been limited to just firearms and related accessories. The new DAKA Pouches are a prime example. On one hand, it would be easy to write them off as just a zippered pouch not unlike the ones you used to store your pencils inside your Trapper Keeper. On the other, there is a level of refinement and innovation built into this pouch that assures us that Magpul is still Magpul even as they venture further and further from firearms.

Check out all three sizes of the DAKA Pouches at Magpul.

From Magpul:

The Magpul DAKA Pouch, designed to bring organization to the dusty, dirty, and muddy world we work and play in.

Made from polymer infused textiles that are welded on all seams and use a genuine YKK® water resistant zipper. The construction methods and materials used mean that these pouches are at home in hard use applications like tool storage or bulk storage of your reloaded ammunition as well as lighter duties like organizing your personal electronic accessories. Although these pouches are not 100% water proof (read submersible…) they will keep your items dry under most wet weather situations making them a great choice for most outdoor adventures.

Made in the U.S.A.

Features:

  • Large Pouch size 9″x13″
  • Reinforced polymer fabric with anti-slip texture
  • Welded construction creates permanent impenetrable seals
  • YKK AquaGuard® water repellant zipper

AK105 Style Gas Blocks in Production at DDI

DDI is cooking up all kinds of interesting things ahead of this year’s SHOT Show. They will be set up in the NEXT area in booth N406. If you checkout their booth, you may be able to put eyes on the new AK105 style gas block that they are producing.

DDI AK105 block

The AK105 style gas blocks incorporate the front sight into the gas block. Moving the front sight back to the gas block reduces weight and opens up interesting opportunities for the front end of the AK. That includes different muzzle devices and easier barrel shortening for both SBRs or permanently attached muzzle devices.

DDI is already showing off (pics below) an AK that makes the potential for such a modification apparent. Hopefully, they work the AK105 style gas blocks into their current production AKs. Better yet, it would be great to see a production AK with a 14.5″ barrel and permanently attached muzzle device on dealer shelves.
