Dynamic Fuzz – Replacement HEL-STAR 6 Velcro
Wednesday, August 16th, 2023NEXTORCH Introduces the WL14 Weapon Light
Thursday, August 3rd, 2023Cleveland, TN – (August 2nd, 2023) – NEXTORCH Industries, one of the world’s leading manufacturers of illumination tools and specialized equipment for law enforcement, first responder, tactical, and outdoor applications, is proud to announce the rechargeable WL14 Compact Weapon Light.
“The W14 is a great addition to our premium weapon light offerings,” said Jordan Brothers, Vice President of Sales & Marketing, NEXTORCH. “We realized the market was missing a genuinely reliable weapon light at an entry level price point. There are lots of great gun lights on the market at a $150+ price point (including several of our own), but just because someone doesn’t want to go that route doesn’t mean they should be forced to compromise on quality. Weapon lights are an essential part of low-light and home defense kits, and not one that should be trusted to an unreliable product.”
The WL14 Weapon Light offers incredibly high performance in a compact and affordable package and is a perfect companion for compact pistols. The 500-lumen beam casts the perfect amount of illumination in low light situations. The WL14 is a powerful, ultra-lightweight weapon light that weighs only 1.6 oz and has an output of 500 lumens on High and 52 lumens on Low. Its ultra-compact design and ambidextrous switches make it great for left or right-handed shooters. The WL14 features a USB-C direct charge port under the body so it can be charged without needing to be removed. With its innovative rail mount system, the WL14 can be attached securely to both MIL-STD-1913 rails and Glock accessory rails.

GBRS x Unity Tactical – Axon Switches
Wednesday, August 2nd, 2023Unity Tactical has created special versions of their Axon & Axon SL with custom cable lengths of 10″ and 14” exclusively for GBRS for use with Hydra mounts which require longer cables.
Featuring a Picatinny mount, the AXON switch provides complete control of lights and aiming devices in a single, compact, and rugged housing. Lights and aiming devices can be fired from individual buttons with versions available for popular issued devices. Its unique design provides tactile differentiation between the two buttons to eliminate confusion in dark, cold, and high-stress situations. The light (angled) button features a switch that allows for both momentary and constant activation, while the aiming device button features a momentary-only button that supports the double-click-for-constant-on feature.
The AXON SL is the smaller, single-button switch in Unity’s AXON family and hard mounts directly to an M1913 Rail. AXON SL features a 45-degree angled button face for an ergonomically correct activation angle, making it easy to index under stress while wearing PPE or facing extreme environmental conditions.
These longer cable versions of Unity AXON buttons are exclusive to GBRS. Currently in-stock are variants for Crane and SureFire plugs with NGAL plugs coming in the next few months.

Sneak Peek – Emissary Development Alternator
Wednesday, July 12th, 2023Emissary Development’s Alternator addresses some of the shortcomings of using two illumination and/or laser aiming devices at the same time.
The design of the Alternator is simply a housing that clamps over two existing Unity Modbutton Lite switches. It has its own actuation surface that sits above the switches and features three pads that use different textures and their own unique angle to make it easier to differentiate each pad from another.
The forward and rearward pads fire off the switch directly underneath them but the middle pad will activate both switches simultaneously.
It also features a fully fenced off body that helps prevent accidental activation of the switches.
They plan to offer two different versions, a “standard fence” and a “raised fence” variant.
The standard fence has the activation buttons flush with the surrounding protective barrier (designed to prevent unwanted activation) of the housing. This will be the most comfortable and lowest profile version.
The raised fence, as it’s name implies, has a slightly raised protective barrier for those looking for a bit more added insurance against the possibility of unwanted activation of the buttons. Keep in mind this model stands slightly taller on the rail that the standard model.
Both versions are designed to prevent AD/NDs so while there really isn’t a massive difference between them they wanted to offer options that the end user can select which model fits their needs best.
Thyrm Switchback
Monday, July 10th, 2023I’ve found that once in awhile it’s good to reintroduce older products to the SSD readership as there are constantly new readers coming on board.
The Switchback is a flashlight accessory which screws a retention ring into place between the body and tail cap. It has become a mainstay of the Thyrm line and expanded over time to five different models which will fit most popular handheld lights.
• The now defunct SwitchBack Large was the original SwitchBack Large, compatible with many 1-inch diameter lights.
•SwitchBack Large 2.0 is the newest version of the Large SwitchBack, compatible with even more 1-inch diameter lights and with several improved features.
•SwitchBack DF is an extra-large flashlight ring that is compatible with Surefire Dual Fuel handheld lights and Pelican 7600 flashlights.
•SwitchBack HOG is an extra-extra-large flashlight ring that is compatible with the Modlite HOG handheld light.
•SwitchBack S Backup is a smaller flashlight ring that is compatible with most Surefire “EDC” and legacy Backup lights.
Many appreciate the versatility the SwitchBack adds to handheld lights by aiding retention, but the most common criticism I hear is from people who have never actually tried one.
They either rely soley on a weapon mounted light, which means they’ve got to expose their pistol and point it at things they might not want to point a weapon at, or they see others use a modified shooting grip with the flashlight and declare that they don’t shoot that way.
Got it. I don’t either. But I do like to know that I’m not going to accidentally drop my light while I’m using it.
For those of you who do shoot that way, SwitchBack makes it much easier to establish and maintain a solid grip on your light.
