One of the most common uses for 20$Bandit’s Mini Kit MK-7 is as a first aid organizer. To support that use, the Rescue Red version of the Mini Kit was introduced and it’s now on sale for $20.
Chinook Medical Officer Response Kit
The new Officer Response Kit is Chinook Medical’s most compact hemorrhage control kit to date. It is not much larger than the tourniquet it is designed to hold.
The heart of the kit is the Officer Response Pouch (also available separately) which can be attached to any MOLLE compatible surface and is compact enough to work well on a belt. It is designed to hold the most basic hemorrhage control items (included): a 4″ Israeli Bandage and a CAT Tourniquet. There is also room for 4 nitrile gloves (included).
The Officer Response Kit is available in Black or Coyote Brown. Check out the full kit and the separately available pouch at Chinook Medical.

V7 Weapon Systems Ultra-Light AR-10 Port Door
V7 Weapon Systems is continuing their crusade against unnecessary ounces and they have turned their attention toward a new rifle – the AR-10. Their new V7 Ultra-Light AR-10 Port Door weighs in at 9 grams which is about 45% lighter than a typical AR-10 port door. It is machined from 7075-T6 aluminum and hard anodized. It certainly doesn’t shed much weight on its own, but I suspect we will start to see more and more lightweight AR-10 parts from V7 that could be part of an overall weight reduction strategy.

Return of the Beretta 92G
If you are a fan of the Beretta 92, this will make your day. Rumors have been flying for months and I am glad to be able say… The Beretta 92G is back!

The 92G was arguably the finest variant of the venerable Beretta 92. It featured the heavier Brigadier slide but, most importantly, it’s slide mounted lever was a decoker only – not a safety. This helped to mitigate one of the most common issues with the 92 series which is that the shooter would inadvertently activate the safety while manipulating the slide. This simple but important change makes the 92G so sought after that there is a small but steady cottage industry set up around converting the 92FS to 92G configuration.
The 92G has already shown up at one retailer – Bud’s Gun Shop. It is listed at Lipsey’s and it is also starting to pop up on Gunbroker. I believe these are a limited release so, if you want one, act fast.
