SHOT Show – Magpul’s Bag, Claymore, Happy

Wednesday, January 20th, 2016

  

There was a hidden gem in the Magpul booth. The Happy Claymore Bag is the result of the CORE team attempting to make a better bag for the M18A1 Claymore Mine. I don’t know what I like more, the smiley face at the front of the bag, the instructions and illustrations, or the actual functionality itself.

 

The bag opens up to expose a large sheet, similar to a rope bag which includes the instructions. This also makes it a good choice for an SSE bag. Open it up, place it on a flat surface, throw items of interest on the sheet, grab the four corners and all the loot slides into the bag. Of course, as you can see, the Happy Claymore Bag has lots of other uses as well.

  

Coming soonish from www.magpul.com.

SHOT Show – Balor Mount by Raven Concealment Systems

Wednesday, January 20th, 2016

 

Designed to fit any 9mm or .40 double stack GLOCK, the Balor is a two-piece design that requires no gunsmithing or alteration of your slide other than removing the rear sight and backplate.

 

One component slides into the rear sight dovetail and the other takes the place of the factory backplate. Once emplaced, the two components are automatically centered in order to bolt together. The result is a strong clamp-like effect on the slide. Steel construction means that it won’t fall apart through thousands of rounds.

 

Another really cool feature is that it incorporates back up iron sights across the mount itself. The rear is a line that can be filled in by the user and the front is a GLOCK sight.

  

Available for the Aimpoint T-1 and Trijicon RMR. Shipping 1 May.

SHOT Show – S&S Precision PlateFrame Gen II

Wednesday, January 20th, 2016

 

S&S Precision has developed a second generation of the PlateFrame. It is injection molded which brings in some additional features and will also lower production costs. The new system also means that as you change plates, all you’ll need to do is change out the clips that hold it in place.

 

They’ve also added a new quick connection point at the shoulders and a stiffened cummerbund.

 

The new Modular Back Panel can be removed for a quick swap of loads.

 

To do so, you open the levers to change the panel out. Simply put it in place and close the levers to secure the panel.

 

Look for it hitting the market third quarter 2016.
