Monday, December 18th, 2017

SUREFIRE INTRODUCES NEW 1,000 LUMEN XH35!

Fountain Valley, CA–SureFire, LLC, manufacturer of the world’s finest–and most innovative–illumination tools and tactical products, is proud to announce the launch of the all-new 1,000 lumen XH35 weaponlight. The XH35 features a recoil-proof LED, paired with a precision, undulated reflector to produce our proprietary MaxVision Beam™, a wide, useful wall of light that’s perfect for close to mid-range engagements. The XH35 includes two mode selector switches. One switch toggles between 1,000 lumens and 300 lumens, for when less light is desired by the user. The second switch toggles between continuous light operation and a strobe mode. Activating the XH35 is achieved via ambidextrous switching located at the rear of body, consistent with our X300U & X400U switching. Optional DG grip switches, which allow for ease of one-handed activation without altering your grip, are also available. This powerful and versatile weaponlight was not only created to interface with SureFire’s revolutionary MASTERFIRE™ Rapid Deploy Holster, but can also be attached to any handgun or long gun equipped with a Universal or Picatinny rail.

Blue Force Gear’s Lightest Sling EVER

Friday, December 15th, 2017

Blue Force Gear has released a specialty sling for the holidays, the ULTRA-Lightweight Vickers One Sling. This new sling is a limited quantity release and is available until sold out. MSRP is $49.

9A224EF9-D1D6-402D-8704-E660962A4717

The Vickers Ultra-Lightweight One Sling was originally spec-ed out by Blue Force Gear’s CEO as part of a project to build the lightest possible, but still fully battle-capable AR Carbine. Every component of the sling and rifle, featured in Vickers Guide AR15 Volume II, was selected to provide the best possible functionality in the lightest conceivable package.

Blue Force Gear started with their Vickers One webbing and hardware which is 20% lighter than their Standard Vickers Sling. Then they added a 1” ULoop sling attachment point is sewn to the front allowing the Sling to be silently attached to nearly any eyelet, cooling vent, modular rail, or sling loop without the need for additional mounting hardware.

To further reduce weight, the Sling uses a unique method of attachment to the buttstock where a simple, folded over tab is pushed through the Sling webbing slot on the buttstock locking it securely in place. A spare Tri-Glide buckle is included to allow for other attachment methods or to completely lock the tab in place.

So lighten your sleigh this Chrismas with Blue Force Gear’s lightest sing EVER. Purchase here.
