UNITY Tactical Expands FAST Line to Support Additional Optics

Tuesday, August 15th, 2023

New FAST™ MicroPrism and FAST™ FTC PA designed specifically for optics from Primary Arms®
BROUSSARD, LA. (Aug. 15, 2023) – UNITY™ Tactical, a designer of components that integrate tactical systems and optimize the human factor, announced the launch of two new FAST™ mounts today, expanding the line to increase compatibility with additional optics.

The FAST MicroPrism positions Primary Arms® MicroPrism™ optics at the established FAST height of 2.26″ to the optical centerline from the rail. It is also compatible with other optics of industry standard mini-prism footprint, though heights may vary depending on the optic.

The FAST FTC PA magnifier mount employs UNITY’s FTC (flip-to-center) technology – already found in the FAST FTC OMNI and FAST FTC 30MM– specifically to bring the Primary Arms MicroMagnifier to the 2.26” FAST height.

“We want to ensure a wide range of end users are able to enjoy the benefits of a heads-up shooting posture,” said Mike Roth, VP of business development for UNITY Tactical. “That means bringing all available optics on the market to the FAST height of 2.26 inches, and we’re glad to support Primary Arms customers with these mounting solutions.”

The FAST MicroPrism and FAST FTC PA are designed to work together with minimal occlusion of the primary optic when the magnifier is stowed.

Both new FAST mounts are available in black or FDE, and mount directly to an M1913 rail. The FAST MicroPrism comes standard with a two cross bolt rail clamp but is compatible for retrofit with a FAST QD Lever. It retails for $186.

The FAST FTC PA comes standard with a FAST QD Lever and retails for $265.

Both the FAST MicroPrism and FAST FTC PA offer a lifetime warranty, and are available for purchase now through authorized UNITY dealers and on UNITYtactical.com.

Mystery Ranch Presents: How to Clean Your Pack

Saturday, August 12th, 2023

Now you see it, now you don’t.

As school approaches, vacations end, and hunting season draws near, it’s essential to give your pack some well-deserved attention.

It is no secret that packs are our specialty; therefore, it is only natural that we’ve honed the perfect method for washing them. Our top recommendation is using Nikwax Tent & Gear SolarWash; The only cleaner designed to protect against UV damage and revitalize water repellency for all weatherproof textiles. Not only is it easy to apply by hand, but it’s also non-flammable, PFAS, and aerosol-free, making it a safe choice for your gear. This powerful cleaner not only effectively removes dirt but also increases fabric strength and shields against UV deterioration.

However, please avoid using a washing machine for this task. While we know it’s tempting, machine washing can reduce your pack’s longevity, water resistance, and increase the chances of it needing a visit to our backpack infirmary.

To maintain excellent water repellency and revitalize the performance of your tent and gear, we also recommend using Nikwax Tent & Gear SolarProof.

This dynamic combination will help your pack withstand the elements and extend its active life, ensuring it remains reliable throughout your adventures.

Finnish Brutality Gathers Practical Shooters from Around the World

Thursday, August 10th, 2023

Varusteleka’s Finnish Brutality will be organized for the sixth time at the Loppi shooting center in Finland on Aug 19 and 20, 2023. This international competition sold out in a few seconds. The idea behind Finnish Brutality is that the shooters need to be able to perform even under physical duress.

Created by Finnish military and outdoor store Varusteleka and online video program InRange TV, the Finnish Brutality shooting competition will see its sixth iteration at the Loppi shooting center in Southern Finland. This international competition gathers contestants from all around the globe. A total of 160 shooters will participate in the competition, 50 of which will shoot in the pre-match and work as Range Officers during the main match. Tickets were sold out in 10 seconds this year. 

Brutality matches are known for challenging the contestants’ marksmanship in unconventional and stressful situations, such as shooting from a trench filled with cold water, from a moving vehicle, or immediately after physically challenging tasks.

The competition is also very popular among the YouTube community. The social media stars Forgotten Weapons and Administrative Results from the US, Polenar Tactical from Slovenia, and many other influencers will take part in Finnish Brutality.

This year, the stages have been designed to be even more brutal and challenging than before. Last year, the contestants of the Recon division had to run 2 miles between each stage. This year, it has been replaced by the Breacher category, where the shooters must perform a variety of physical challenges between stages in full combat gear.

Brutality matches were born in 2018 as a collaboration between Varusteleka and InRange TV. The first Brutality match was Desert Brutality in Arizona, soon followed by Finnish Brutality in Finland. Over the years, new Brutality matches have been arranged in various locations – in 2022, Lynx Brutality saw the light of day in Slovenia, and Woodland Brutality was arranged for the first time in the US.

Media representatives are warmly welcome at Finnish Brutality 2023. We ask that you contact toni.suokas@varusteleka.com or jenny.koskimaki@varusteleka.com a few days beforehand. Please bring your own eye and ear protection.

The rules and more info about the event can be found on Varusteleka’s website
