Varusteleka Project MEGA Update
Tuesday, December 24th, 2024Platatac Has Frogskin!
Monday, December 23rd, 2024
What might sound like an insult to many is actually great news for those in the know.
Frogskin camouflage was developed by the US military during World War II and most famously used by the Marines during the island hopping campaign across the Pacific Theater.
Like with other historical patterns, Platatac has taken this classic and applied it to their most popular designs like the Peacekeeper Mk5 chest rig, SD Duffel, Kurtz Shirt, and Jaywick Shorts, with more coming in early 2025.

Sons of Liberty Gun Works Unveils New SF Compatible NOX Line
Friday, December 20th, 202418DEC2024 – SAN ANTONIO TEXAS
Sons of Liberty Gun Works (SOLGW) has announced the expansion of their popular NOX muzzle device series with four new SF compatible models, with initial exclusivity through Primary Arms.
“We are excited to introduce the SF compatible NOX line, featuring a complete range of muzzle devices—both ported and non-ported—available in 5/8 and ½ threads. Whether you’re looking to enhance your 13.7” to 16” builds or seeking a reliable standalone suppressor host for any rifle, this line delivers exceptional performance.”— Mike Mihalski, Founder and Co-Owner of Sons of Liberty Gun Works.
The new SF compatible NOX line features a range of muzzle devices, both ported and non-ported, with standard 5.56 1/2 X28 and 5/8X24 thread pitches. This development particularly benefits users of SOLGW’s .223 Wylde Precision barrels, which utilize the 5/8 thread pitch for enhanced accuracy and durability.
NOX, SOLGW
The engineering behind these offerings emphasizes precision. By incorporating more material surrounding the bore, the design minimizes constriction at the crown, improving accuracy. The 5/8 threaded SF-NOXs allow for the mounting of durable SOCOM suppressors, enhancing the overall shooting experience.
These new muzzle devices are especially valuable for 13.7”-barrel builds and can serve as effective standalone compensators, providing enhanced performance and versatility for both suppressed and unsuppressed applications.
“”We are thrilled to introduce the SF compatible NOX line, which not only enhances the performance of our products but also meets the needs of our customers who rely on compatibility with popular suppressors. This expansion reflects our commitment to innovation and quality in the firearms industry.” – William Phebus, Director of Sales & Business Development
The complete SF compatible NOX line is shipping now from Primary Arms as standalone items, complete factory-built systems shipping soon!
You can experience them firsthand at the PrairieFire Range Day during SHOT 2025 prairiefire.com/prairiefire-range-day

Introducing SIG Special Weapons Group and the Australian SIGP320978 Pistol
Thursday, December 19th, 2024
SIG SAUER has just launched a new program called the Special Weapons Group or SWG for short. I saw their initial offering and had to jump on it as I was in Australia for the announcement of the F9 pistol contract in 2022 which is part of Lethality System Project (LAND 159).
The pistol is known as Australia SIGP320978 in the SWG program and limited to only 1500 units. I had initially heard rumors that some of these pistols might be offered for commercial sale during SIG NEXT earlier this year and much to my surprise, SIG launched the program along with this limited edition handgun.
The pistol is configured just like an ADF issue F9, which is quite similar to a US Modular Handgun System M18. Where it differs most is in the frame. It features a Coyote X Carry frame with an extended beaver tail and deeper undercuts paired with a PVD coated slide. In addition a to an external safety, it is also equipped with a SIG ROMEO2 Optic and FOXTROT2 Weapon light, right out of the box. Finally, you’ll also find a certificate of authenticity as well as one 17-round magazine and two 21-round magazines in the case.
This isn’t the first time that SIG has offered products developed for defense customers to the general public. For instance, there was a run of surplus M17 and M18 MHS handguns and currently you can purchase a SURG upper receiver group. Now, it’s all under a more formal program. Even better, this isn’t the last project SWG has in the hopper.
Available only at the SIG Flagship Store in the Experience Center and online. Learn more at www.sigsauer.com/swg.
Revision Successfully Resolves Legacy Legal Issue
Tuesday, December 17th, 2024December 17, 2024
Essex Junction, Vermont (for immediate release) – Revision Military Ltd. (Revision), a world leader in purpose-built ballistic and laser eye protection for military and tactical use, is pleased to announce that it has successfully resolved a legacy legal issue in cooperation with the U.S. government.
In September 2019, Revision’s protective eyewear business was acquired by a new ownership group. Revision’s new ownership and management team later learned that allegations had been made before the acquisition regarding compliance with certain government contractingrequirements, and that the government initiated an investigation into such matters. The allegations and investigation pertained to domestic sourcing requirements fortextile materials used for pouches, carrying cases, and strapsthat are accessories to some Revision eyewear productsduring the period January 1, 2016 to December 31, 2020. The investigation did not implicate performance offunctional eyewear components such as lenses or frames, which are assembled in our state-of-the-art manufacturing clean room in Vermont. Revision’s new management team cooperated closely with the government and is happy to report that it has now resolved all matters related to thisinvestigation. At no point during this process and post settlement has there been any impact on Revision’s ability to sell to the US Military directly or indirectly.
The government alleged that certain historical eyewear purchases did not comply with the Berry Amendment because (i) carrying pouches, (ii) cases, and/or (iii) straps contained textiles that were not grown, reprocessed, reused, or produced in the United States. Revision expressly denied liability and contended, among other things, that to the extent the transactions at issue were for purchases of $150,000 or less, the Berry Amendment by its terms did not apply at all. Revision also contended that there were no damages to the government because the eyewear products performed as intended. Rather than litigate these issues, Revision and the government agreed to resolve the matter amicably.
The legacy legal issues underlying the investigation and settlement pertained to historical sales as many as nine years ago. Revision takes such compliance issues seriously, even when they are historical. In this spirit, the settlement agreement formally documents the government crediting Revision’s new ownership and management team for self-initiating improved compliance measures, for replacing former employees who were responsible for overseeing such compliance issues, and for cooperating with the government investigation.
Beyond the specific issues resolved in the settlement, we understand that Revision users expect our eyewear to protect them and get them home safely. We take this to heart from the beginning of the product life-cycle to the end and reaffirm that this duty to our users, the men and women who stand for us all, is always at the forefront of our minds. Revision’s enhanced and comprehensive compliance program is designed to promote compliance across allapplicable contracting requirements. We want all our customers to know that the Revision brand represents quality, reliability, and integrity.
