Trooper-Gear SHTF+ Wrap

Trooper-Gear has a new version of their SHTF Wrap (Stop Heat TransFer Wrap). The SHTF+ Wrap is very similar to the original in form and function but it benefits from the addition of thermal insulating material that is sewn into the wrap. The thermal insulation allows it to protect the user from an even wider range of temperatures.

The SHTF+ Wrap is secured around your free float rail via Velcro. It protects from heat (and cold), provides grip, and protection for the rail when bracing on barricades. It is fits most slick-sided free float tubes (and many 4 rail tubes) and it adds minimal thickness which is nice when you have purposely chosen your rail to be thin. You can even sandwich your weapon light’s tape switch in the Velcro portion of the wrap.

Many of the slick sided free float tubes do not have a heat mitigation solution available. The SHTF+ Wrap is universal enough that it can fill that role. Check out the SHTF+ Wrap at Trooper-Gear.com.

Aero Precision M4 Barrel

Aero Precision is usually my first stop when I need an AR-15 upper or lower receiver. I have found their receivers to be an excellent value and it appears that their newest offering is going to be a great value as well. They are now serving up an M4 profile barrel that looks like a great value on paper.

The Aero Precision M4 Barrel is turned from 4150 Chrome Moly Vanadium steel and features a 1 in 7″ twist. It has an M4 profile, carbine length gas system, a 5.56 chamber, and M4 feedramps. This barrel accepts a standard .750″ gas block over it’s .0635″ gas port. I commend Aero Precision for not only listing their gas port spec but also for sizing it correctly!

The icing on the cake is the inside and out QPQ finish. QPQ is a nitriding treatment. Similar finishes are often known by their trade names like Melonite and Tennifer. QPQ is hard enough and corrosion resistant enough to stand in for chrome lining. Since it is a treatment, not a coating, it adds almost no thickness to the bore which can lead to improved accuracy.

Aero Precision would like to offer additional barrel profiles in the near future so stay tuned. Check out the new Aero Precision M4 Barrel.

Maxpedition Bottle PALS

The new Maxpedition Bottle PALS is one of those things that I really don’t need and yet I still want one. Who wouldn’t want a bottle opener that mounts to PALS webbing (or any other 1″ webbing like back pack straps)? Check out the Maxpedition Bottle PALS.

TAREINCO Safe Patch Panel

Tareinco Safe Patch Panel

It is nice to see someone bringing something new to patch panels. The TAREINCO Patch Panel has rare earth magnets embedded in its backing so that it can be secured to gun safes, tool chests, refrigerators, lockers, or any other magnetic surface. It sure beats sticking adhesive Velcro to the front of your safe like I have done in the past.

These are not available yet but you can check out TAREINCO’s website in the mean time.
