Sneak Peek – Grey Ghost Gear at SHOT Show

Monday, January 11th, 2016

Grey Ghost Gear and Grey Ghost Precision will have some new EDC and ballistic goodness to show you at the 2016 NSSF SHOT Show.

Here are a couple of teaser shots of their new pack. If you liked the “Throwback” you’re going to love the “Gypsy”. It looks great, rides well, is completely low profile and will age better than Dick Clark.

To get a look at the rifles, you’ll need to go to Booth #31000.

Strike Force from MATBOCK

Monday, January 11th, 2016

 

So what is Strike Force. It’s little packet but packs a huge strike…(cough) force! This packet contains the same amount of energy as 2 Redbulls but is sugar/calorie free. A StrikeForce box holds 10 packets (picture) and retails for $10. MATBOCK also offerS 100 qty boxes as well.

I’ve tried it several times and I like the taste. What’s more, this liquid can be added to any potable water so there’s no need to transport loads of energy drink cans.

OR – Icebug Integrates Traction for Slippery Conditions

Sunday, January 10th, 2016

 

There are several studded, removable “skins” for the bottom of shoes and boots to increase traction in slippery environments. The Swedish company Icebug even makes them. But, they also integrate their system directly into the bottom of a line of footwear. Icebug uses a combination of carbide tipped studs and various sticky rubbers to help you stay on your feet.
