Get Your AK-47 Standing Lamps!
Thursday, September 6th, 2012You can find some really cool stuff on Etsy and SSD’s friend Rusty Longsword is just the kind of artsy guy to spend lots of free time perusing the goods. This time he found something pretty cool. Many of us have war rooms or man caves, or at least a corner of the garage we can call our own. If you have one, it’s imperative to outfit it with some cool guy stuff and this AK-47 lamp will fit right in.
These are hand made slip-cast ceramic lamps standing 24″ to the fixture and a total of 33″ tall to the top of the shade. These AK-47 shaped lamps come complete with fixture, shade, cord and plug. Remember, these are hand made, low rate of production items.

New Staff Isn’t The Only Thing Happening at Magpul Dynamics
Thursday, September 6th, 2012Over the past months Magpul Dynamics has added new personnel including Director Duane Liptak Jr and Jon Canipe to join their excellent existing staff. But, that’s not all they have going on. In addition to an updated curriculum, they are also working to close out the popular “Art of” series.
According to the Magpul Dynamics Facebook page, “We will most likely release all remaining material from the “Art of” series in a boxed set/update. That will clear out the vaults and put a close to that chapter of Magpul Training. If you want more of what this series is/was, then this will be everything that hasn’t seen the light of day. What you see in the “Art of” is not what we are currently doing, but that isn’t to say that there isn’t material of value in the “Art of”– we are, however, doing this to be able to move forward.
The next material from us will most likely not be in DVD format…the “Art of” changed what a training DVD was, and the next step will be more revolutionary than evolutionary as well. The next step is in the works currently.”
In the meantime, I’d suggest that you look into some hands on training with Magpul Dynamics.
