@Hoplopfheil and @BallisticAviation are on the scene and unsupervised at the Magpul booth to check out some of their latest products including their new all-polymer 30-round translucent TMAG, MOE PR Carbine Stock, and some of their new rail covers and wire management products. We won’t [Read More…]
Strike Industries is a prolific manufacturer of firearms parts and accessories. This Las Vegas-based company’s product catalog spans a huge array of components for ARs, AKs, CZ Scorpions, a variety of handguns, several shotguns, optics mounts, modular pistol [Read More…]
The advances in technology for accessories mean nothing without a solid platform on which to mount them. While high-end thin handguards can be plenty strong, some people still prefer the tank-ish quad rails of old. As someone who just ditched mine earlier this year, I [Read More…]
I remember at one of my first gun shows, I was enthralled by the, by today’s standards, extremely long vertical grip with the bipod in it. I think it also had a spot to mount a light. That one piece of gear probably weighed almost a pound. Coming from a time when [Read More…]
When it comes to vertical grips, most people that I know will buy a longer grip and cut it down. The Strike Stacked Angled Grip turns that process around, allowing you to build the length you want from a base unit. Now, the Stacked Grip that you love in black is [Read More…]
When you start straying away from bone stock rifles without lights and start putting things like IR illuminators, weapon lights, and switches on your gun, cable management can be absolute hell to deal with. Strike Industries has just introduced their new Link Cobra [Read More…]
Cable management can be a pain. It wasn’t until recently that we had effective options that replaced the trusty and jagged cable tie. One downfall of some of these mounting methods was the expense. Strike Industries has given us an extremely low-cost option with [Read More…]
I still live that quad rail life. I have a lot of Picatinny rail on my AR, and a few cables, as well. I’ve cut myself on enough sharp edges from crudely severed cable ties to know that there must be a better way. Strike Industries has been releasing a lot of cable [Read More…]
As we add more and more crap onto the handguard of our carbines, things can get a bit messy. Most of what we attach is electronic in nature: weapon lights, IR devices, marital aides, etc. Many of these also have cables. If you run an M-LOK handguard and need some help [Read More…]
Most fans of AR-style firearms tend to share some things in common. One key is that we typically like to customize our ARs. A major benefit to the platform has long been its modularity. Particularly as the military began using different versions of the CAR-15, Colt [Read More…]
TNVC, or the Tactical Night Vision Company, has been an industry leader in the field of night vision and related shooting gear and accessories for about the last decade, as well as offering low-light/no-light training classes. They’ve come out with some excellent [Read More…]
If you run a light on a long gun, odds are you’ve wrestled with cable management issues before. Although these headaches can be circumvented by only using a clicky tailcap, or buying a Cloud Defensive OWL, these types of solutions won’t work for every gun or [Read More…]
Rubber bands serve many purposes, including powering some very cool “firearms”. Some jobs are even exclusively for rubber bands, like on a tattooing machine or launching small pieces of paper at your math teacher. Our elastic companions have also been used [Read More…]
Hot on the heels of the release of Siegen M-LOK rail covers with cable management feature, Strike Industries has introduced two new angled M-LOK forward grips that also allow organizing the cables of light/laser pressure switches. The two grips share the same cable [Read More…]
For those who dabble with weapon mounted lights, specifically Surefire Scoutlights and their Millennium Series weapon lights, knows the problems with the tape switches. The ubiquitous ST07 tape switch comes with an alcohol wipe and adhesive velcro. Those [Read More…]
