Interesting Use of the Princeton Tec Switch Rail Light

Monday, February 2nd, 2015

Former SEAL Mark Owen recently posted this photo of a Princeton Tec Switch Rail weapon light mounted to a pistol. The original concept by Sentinel Design and Austere Provisions Company was to provide low level light on a rifle rail. Sort of a navigation light.

Owen is using it on his pistol, which certainly offers a low volume light and might be just what you are looking for, depending on your application.

SPECIFICATIONS
POWER – 10 Lumens
BURN TIME – 36 Hours

“Aids to Scouting, for N.-C.O.s & Men” : The Book That Inspired A Movement

Monday, February 2nd, 2015

Authored by Lieutenant General Sir Robert Baden-Powell (pronounced “Poe-well”), “Aids to Scouting, for N.-C.O.s & Men” was one of many pamphlets he wrote based in his experience as an officer in His Majesty’s Army abroad.

(null)

Intended as a training guide for use by other professional Soldiers, the book was adopted by boys across England who began to practice the skills contained therein. Eventually, BP as he was known, retired from his post as a General and founded the Scouting movement, adapting his earlier works for his new youth movement.

Fieldcraft is the foundation of a successful Soldier. A modified version of this skill set, called appropriately enough, “Scoutcraft” is also what Scouting is all about. While some tasks don’t translate directly from one to the other, there is enough overlap that this book inspired the Scouting movement over a century ago.
