TangoDown Vickers Tactical Glock 42 Slide Stop

I have some great news for Glock 42 shooters. The excellent, Larry Vickers designed TangoDown Vickers Tactical Slide Stop will be available for the Glock 42 soon. The Vickers Tactical Glock Slide Stop is not just a well designed slide stop from an ergonomic standpoint but it is actually very durable. In my experience, Glock’s OEM extended slide stop is not as robust as it could be and, more importantly, it isn’t available for the Glock 42. The Vicker’s Tactical part is made from 4130 steel and stands up to hard use very well.

You can pre-order at Red State Tactical.

Vickers Tactical Glock 42 Basepads

There is at least one Vickers Tactical part on most of my Glocks. The LAV knows his way around Gaston’s creation. Now, he has turned his attention to Glock’s latest – the Glock 42.

Larry Vickers has once again teamed up with Tango Down to produce a new Glock product – Vickers Tactical Glock 42 Basepads. The new base pads add some additional real estate on the front strap of the grip to make the littlest Glock a bit easier to shoot. They taper down to flush with the back of the grip which is good news from a concealment perspective since it is the butt of the grip that you actually have to worry about printing.

They are also scalloped in a similar way to the Vickers Tactical Glock Basepads for full size glocks. These scallops give you great leverage when you need to strip a magazine out of a gun during a malfunction clearance.

These will be available soon and you can expect to see more Vickers Tactical parts for the Glock 42 soon (hopefully a mag released and slide release).

Now this has potential. The LAV, Larry Vickers, has announced a new YouTube show and it looks like it is going to be great. If you haven’t already, you are going to want to subscribe to the VickersTacticalInc Youtube Channel.

Larry Vickers on the AK

A good friend pointed me to these excellent videos. About 2 years ago I wrote an article about bringing the AK up to date just to share among friends. I have been hoping to update the article now that I have been using my “modernized” AK for some time now. Everything I did to my AK is mirrored in these videos from Larry Vickers. Mr. Vickers is an expert on the AK (and most small arms) and offers excellent AK specific training courses.

There is a lot of good information for AK users to be gleaned from these videos:
