The LiftR is self-packing and modular to fit most brand’s plate carriers, while providing the appropriate amount of lift necessary to bring a diver/swimmer to the surface and float them in a face-up orientation.

After the recent Domestic Terrorist attack in San Bernardino, our current administration believes that more gun control is the answer. These ignorant Democrats and Libtards have no clue when it comes to combating terrorism in the U.S. or abroad. Watching them water down our international prowess was laughable in the beginning, but it’s not funny to watch them dismantle everything we worked for in the Middle East just so Obama could say, “I ended the war in Iraq”. It’s not funny this administration could have sent a QRF to Benghazi, then covered up their lack of action. It’s not funny that they have been negotiating with Iran, the same country whose constitution mandates that all laws are based on the Koran. Women are considered un-equal to men under Iran’s legal code. It’s not considered “Radical” that women shouldn’t drive cars, can’t open a personal bank account or be allowed to go out in public without a male relative chaperone. Infidelity is grounds for stoning, homosexuals are hung and beheading is the penalty for leaving Islam. We don’t negotiate with terrorist, but it’s OK to negotiate with these savages?
We are not at war with Islam, but elements within Islam are at war with us. Until we recognize that Islam is not a religion of peace, there will be another 9/11, more attacks like Paris and San Bernardino. Gun free countries and gun free zones that display signs of their weakness will continue to be the perfect target; “Ignorance is Bliss” and sheep will always be an easy target for wolves.
Wake up America and vote out our weak leaders that want to disarm you and your ability to protect yourself. If they will not take the lead on combating evil how can you expect them to prevent evil from knocking on your doorstep?
Respectfully,
Daryl Holland

I got a chance to check these knives and lights out during a recent media event in Phoenix. I really like the knives and they will be popular thanks to their features and price.
Here are some closer photos depicting features.
I didn’t get much time with the lights. It was broad daylight and we had lots to go over.
However, I have got to say that this integrated finger loop is impressive.
