New Slide Patterns from Grey Ghost Precision
Tuesday, January 15th, 2019
Wallace, ID – Grey Ghost Precision is excited to announce that they have added two additional slide patterns to their GGP-19 and GGP-17 aftermarket Glock slide product line.
The new additions are simply called the V3 and V4, and while they share the same precision engineering and tightened critical tolerances of their predecessors the V1 and V2… they are offering something new to the optics-loving crowd. The V3 and V4 slides feature a hybrid MRDS cut. Previously the V1 and V2 slides were only cut and tapped for mounting the Trijicon RMR. However the V3 and V4 slides now feature a modified optic footprint to accommodate the slightly larger Leupold DeltaPoint Pro. Still want to mount your trusty Trijicon RMR? As it turns out, the DPP and RMR share a similar front profile without the bolt patterns intersecting each other. The primary difference in the footprints are overall length, but GGP resolved this with an ingenious aluminum shim plate for use with the shorter RMR. The result is dual compatibility right out of the box, without the need for bulky adapter plates that raise the optic further above the bore axis. Note: GGP provides three pairs of screws for mounting either the Leupold DPP, Trijicon RMR, or the G10 RMR cover plate (for you iron sight purists). Using the factory-length screws that come with your optic of choice will not install correctly.
As if the optics feature wasn’t enough, the new patterns on the V3 and V4 are worth attention as well. At a quick glance, GGP’s V3 slide would seem to be standard angled serrations. However upon further inspection, the depth of the serrations taper inwards as the cut goes up the slide. This gives you a much more aggressive grip near the top of the slide for press checks and malfunction clearing drills, especially under sweaty, muddy, or bloody conditions. The top of the V3 has shallow cuts that also aid in press checks, while mimicking the design on top of the GGP Glock Barrels.
For the V4 slides, they’ve designed a studded micro-scale texture that provides an unmatched level of frictional grip in any direction of pull. Reminiscent of their V2 slide with “geoscales,” however this pattern is smaller and the little studs within each individual scale provide a much higher level of frictional grip in leu of traditional serrations. The V4 also has a top window cutout presumably for weight balance.
V3/V4 SPECS
- Machined from 17-4 Billet Stainless Steel for tighter-than-factory-tolerances
- Black Nitride coated inside and out for superior corrosion resistance
- Dual compatibility with Leupold DPP and Trijicon RMR with supplied screws and shim plate
- V3 Slide Pattern with tapered depth serrations for varying aggressiveness from top to bottom
- V4 Slide Pattern with studded micro-scales for enhanced frictional grip
- Available for Gen 3 or Gen 4 G19 compatible frames
The Grey Ghost Precision V3 and V4 is available for pre-order now for February delivery. Visit www.greyghostprecision.com for more details.

SureFire Celebrates 40th Anniversary
Tuesday, January 15th, 2019SureFire, LLC is celebrating its 40th anniversary this year as the manufacturer of the world’s finest illumination tools, suppressors, and tactical accessories.
Founded in 1979 as Laser Products Corporation, the company took tactical innovation into uncharted territory when it introduced the LPC Model 7, which incorporated a laser sight atop a Colt Trooper .357 Magnum, to become the world’s first commercially-available laser-aimed weapon. The LPC Model 7 created an entirely new market in the process, and Laser Products went on to develop other groundbreaking laser sights for a variety of weapons. As this technology became favored by military and law enforcement agencies, the company responded to their needs by developing weapon-mounted lights for handguns, followed by integrated WeaponLights for shotguns, submachineguns, and rifles. Those products fostered the development of the first compact high-intensity flashlight, the Model 6P, which created the premium tactical lighting market that SureFire has dominated for the past 30 years.
“We made our mark with laser sights and tactical illumination tools, but we didn’t stop there,” said SureFire president and founder, Dr. John Matthews. “Our basic mission has always been to produce products that help good guys who go into harm’s way, and we’ve never stopped innovating to give our customers the advantage they need and deserve.”
Now in its 40th year, SureFire remains the leader in extreme-duty illumination products and tactical tools, including innovative hands-free lighting, Ear Pro® brand hearing protection and communication devices, and battlefield-proven suppressor designs such as their SOCOM model, the official suppressor of the U.S. Army, U.S. Navy, U.S. Air Force and U.S. Marine Special Operations since 2011, a contract that was renewed in 2017.
Through four decades of technical innovation, one thing has never changed at SureFire, and that’s Dr. Matthews’ unwavering commitment to produce the best by utilizing advanced technology, precision manufacturing, and the finest materials and components — every SureFire product is engineered for maximum performance, no expense spared.
“It costs what it costs to make things right — and to employ American workers to do it,” Matthews said. “That’s just the way it is: We build the best, without compromise.”
With a 40-year legacy behind it, SureFire has its sights set squarely on the future. New models to be announced at the 2019 SHOT Show in Las Vegas are just the tip of the iceberg.
“I’m proud of what the SureFire team has accomplished, but I’m even more excited that we’re already laying the groundwork for the future, developing innovations that will redefine several market segments in which we are involved, and a few new ones as well,” Matthews said. “But this has never been about us. It has always been about our customers and helping them win the fight. They’ve had our back, and we’ll continue to have theirs.”

UF PRO Releases ‘Pro’s Guide to Combat Medic Essential Skills’ Series—Shows How to Save Lives, Missions
Tuesday, January 15th, 2019TRZIN, SLOVENIA (14 January 2019)—UF PRO®, maker of advanced-technology jackets, sweaters, shirts, pants, hats, caps, and accessories for military and law-enforcement units, today announced it plans to soon make available online at no cost a video series for aspiring combat medics to teach them the basics of treating casualties and preventing needless deaths during missions.
Called “The Pro’s Guide to Combat Medic Essentials Skills,” the video set consists of several installments hosted by a SF combat medic who currently actively serves in the forces and has kept troops patched up while participating over the years in everything from routine exercises to hot-zone engagements.
“The Pro’s Guide to Combat Medic Essential Skills” has been released on the 13th of January and lays out fundamental, proven techniques for quickly, efficiently, and effectively aiding the injured in the field when no medical doctor is available.
UF PRO® added that at the conclusion of each video, a short quiz is presented to viewers and said the company will give to quiz-takers who pass all three tests a complimentary, limited-edition UF PRO® Combat Medic patch that can be worn on their uniforms.
As explained by UF PRO®, the first video in “The Pro’s Guide to Combat Medic Essential Skills” series discusses care under fire. Field medics need to swiftly assess injuries and wounds, then choose the best way under the circumstances to treat them. This part of the series delves into the latest strategies for keeping unit personnel alive, comfortable, and safe.
The second video describes the M.A.R.C.H. algorithm. M.A.R.C.H. stands for massive hemorrhage, airway constriction, respiratory distress, circulation problems, and hypothermia. As the video reveals, each of those conditions is listed in descending order of injury seriousness and so provides a handy way to remember which ones must receive attention first when encountering multiple casualties all at once.
The final installment deals with the actual interventions medics need to make when casualties occur. For example, shown in detail are techniques to stop bleeding, splint a broken bone, clean a wound, and manage pain.
UF PRO® indicated that anyone interested in receiving notification that an official release date for the video series has been set can sign up for a UF PRO® email alert by visiting “The Pro’s Guide to Combat Medic Essential Skills” webpage.
