TFB Weekly Web Deals 29: Parts to Stock Up On Now

Welcome to TFB Weekly Web Deals 29! It’s no secret that there are those out there that seek to restrict and reduce the amount and type of firearms, parts, and accessories that we have access to.

Today we’ll be featuring deals I’ve found on some of the most controversial or vilified parts and firearms that you can stock up on now to help hedge your bets against any potential bans that may prevent you from purchasing them in the future.

TFB Weekly Web Deals 26: On-Sale Magpul AR-15 Stocks

Welcome to TFB Weekly Web Deals 26. A stock is one of the most important pieces of furniture you can select for your rifle. While you can operate an AR-15 with a standard stock that usually comes with the rifle you’re purchasing, if you really want to optimize your rifle for you and your mission, you’ll probably want to upgrade it to something that has a few more features over a standard M4-style telescoping stock. Today we’ve brought you a small selection of Magpul stocks which are some of the best stocks in the industry and are made from very tough and durable glass-reinforced polymer. What’s great about Magpul’s stocks is that they are 100% made and engineered in the United States. All of the stocks featured in TFB Weekly Web Deals 26 are MIL-Spec, although, many of these stocks are available in commercial buffer tube widths as well. If you’re looking for those, you can visit http://magpul.com/stocks/ to check out their commercial offerings.

TFB Weekly Web Deals 25: Aftermarket AR-15 Triggers

So today we’ll be taking a look at some of the most popular (currently discounted) options for aftermarket triggers from some of your favorite online retailers.

TFB Weekly Web Deals 24: AK-Style Rifles and Pistols

Welcome to TFB Weekly Web Deals 24. Aside from the AR-15 in the United States, few firearms worldwide are as recognizable as the AK. Originally designed and first produced in the years following the conclusion of the Second World War, the AK-47 and its derivatives have spread across the globe in great numbers and are still in some forms used to this day by militaries, private citizens, and rogue organizations. Despite decades of it being the “enemy’s gun” during the years of the cold war, the AK-style rifle has gained a healthy following in the western world, and both fans and detractors of the AK rifle can at least appreciate its mass adoption, legendary durability, and simplicity of design. In honor of that achievement and to perhaps help one of you budding AK enthusiasts out there find the deal you’ve been waiting for, we’ll be featuring all AK-style rifles and pistols for the TFB Weekly Web Deals 24.

TFB Weekly Web Deals 23: Early Fall LPVO Deals

Welcome to TFB Weekly Web Deals 23. The subject of LPVOs (Low Power Variable Optics) is a hotly debated subject among the TFB staff and to a certain extent the rest of the firearms community. Love em’ or hate em’, LPVOs offer you a lot of advantages over fixed power optics or simple red dot and magnifier combos. They are considered by many to be fairly lightweight compared to some fixed power optics and they also tend to offer you an illuminated reticle that is often paired with a BDC (bullet drop compensation) reticle that allows you to take more accurate shots at a distance without having to use Kentucky windage. Like nearly everything else in the firearms world, you’re dealing with a compromise when it comes to LPVOs so you should always make sure that your chosen optic matches the type of shooting you’ll be doing. If you’ve decided on an LPVO but haven’t picked one up yet, today we’ll have a small selection of LPVOs that are on sale. The average price of an LPVO tends to hover somewhere around the $750 mark but can be as low as only a couple hundred bucks or as high as several thousand dollars – no matter what you’re after in terms of price and quality, there’s a usually a sale out there for you. Today I’ve picked out a handful for you guys to check out in case you’re in the market for a new LPVO.

TFB Weekly Web Deals 22: Perfect Pairs (Guns That Use The Same Magazine)

Welcome to TFB Weekly Web Deals 22! The concept of the “perfect pair” isn’t anything new but it’s still one that optimizes efficiency in terms of compatible magazines.

Today we’re going to be focusing on getting you pair of firearms that use the same magazines so that you can spend less on magazines, and more on ammunition and training with your firearms.

TFB Weekly Web Deals 20: Ammopalooza Edition

Welcome to TFB Weekly Web Deals 20! Ammunition has finally made its way back onto store shelves and I always like to come back around to this subject every so often to give myself a bit of a reality check when it comes to ammunition prices. The first observation right off the bad is that, yes, things are still expensive and they don’t look like they are going to come down in price anytime soon. Second, I’ve noticed that hunting ammunition is a lot more popular this year and a lot harder to find, especially when it comes to some of the more recently popular hunting cartridges like 6.5 Creedmoor. With H.R. 1808 ominously looming over our heads, I wouldn’t be surprised if more magazines start disappearing from the shelves as a precautionary measure by some. So in addition to some ammunition deals I’ve found, I’m also including some deals on quality AR-15 magazines in case you want to stock up. Never, ever stop buying magazines.

TFB Weekly Web Deals 14: Armored Up Edition (Plate Carriers and Armor)

Hello and welcome to TFB Weekly Web Deals 14. Earlier this month, in June, the State of New York made the decision to ban certain types of body armor – specifically, soft body armor commonly referred to as a bulletproof vest. Politics aside, the restriction of access to this type of equipment is something that is both confusing and almost counterintuitive in my opinion. That’s why this week for TFB Weekly Web Deals 14 we’re on the hunt for the best deals for soft body armor, hard body armor plates, and plate carriers. Right now is a great time to pick up body armor as there are lots of sales out there.
