Sneak Peek – New M-Lok Rail from Troy Ind
Friday, September 23rd, 2016I’ve spent the past few days with Dan Brokos at a TYR Urban Gunfighter class for Law Enforcement in Central Missouri, sponsored by TYR Tactical. Dan’s carbine was sporting a prototype, lightweight, M-Lok rail from Troy Industries.
Look for it at SHOT Show.
FirstSpear Friday Focus – Factory Visit
Friday, September 23rd, 2016I recently had an opportunity to visit the FirstSpear headquarters and factory so I thought it would be a good idea to show you where all of this gear we share each week is made.
The first thing you’ll notice as you pull up to their facility is the signage. Although, the factory is right off of the interstate, you’re certainly not going to miss it and approach the wrong building.
Once inside, I signed in and was directed to a new sales show room they are configuring. The shelving is still under construction but several of the mannequins featured new products, so I can’t spill the beans just yet. But, once it’s completed, we’ll feature it in an upcoming Friday Focus.
As you can see, the production floor is quite large. You may wonder about the silver pipes. Those allow the individual sewers to direct air conditioning where they need it.
Flotation remains an important segment of FirstSpear’s current offerings. They were pumping out systems like gangbusters during my visit.
Their cutters are what keeps that line running. FS recently upgraded to a larger capacity laser cutter and it has really sped things up.
There’s a lot of prototyping going on right now and FirstSpear’s prototype sewing staff is as big as some companies’ entire production crew. They’re getting ready for some very big reveals this Fall, but the one for SHOT Show will blow your socks off. Expect to see not only new designs, but also new materials.
FS keeps a great deal of raw material on hand, with rows and rows of shelving packed with stock.
Demand for FirstSpear products continues to rise. In spite of their increased production capacity, wait times are only seeming to get longer, so I’d recommend that if you know you’ll need something, order sooner, rather than later.
You Never Know Where They’ll Show Up
