1791 Outdoor Lifestyle Group Introduces the Tac Leather Rifle Sling

Sunday, January 18th, 2026

Miami, FL – 1791 Outdoor Lifestyle Group, a leading provider of premium leather holsters, EDC tool organizers, and associated outdoor and sporting goods, proudly announces their Tac Leather Rifle Sling. As part of a growing line of tactical products, this sling is made for unmatched durability, comfort and style. The new Tac Leather Rifle Sling blends the rugged strength of tactical nylon with the timeless craftsmanship of 100% Certified American cowhide.

The use of leather combined with tactical nylon is functional as well as attractive. The leather is soft and breathable to provide lasting comfort, while the ballistic nylon core holds the sling’s shape and prevents twisting. The Rapid Adjustable Slider allows for instantly changing the length as needed, and the Body Adjustment Point facilitates getting the sling to fit perfectly for better handling and reducing fatigue.

Tac Leather Rifle Slings are equipped with handmade leather fittings that ensure silent, durable operation. Finished with reinforced stitching and backed by a Lifetime Warranty, this sling blends the comfort and aesthetics of leather with the durable performance of tactical nylon.

The Tac Leather Rifle Sling is now available in black or brown with an MSRP of $69.99. This sling and other new products, including the exciting new 1791 Industries firearm accessories will be on display at the 2026 SHOT Show in Las Vegas at Booth 75207, January 20th – 23rd, 2026.

Vector Heavy Chest Pack

Saturday, January 17th, 2026

Putting my money where my mouth is…

I’m Ben. I’m the Product Development Manager for Fine Group.

I was recently talking to our Managing Director about the products we have developed. I told him we needed to be sure they were up to the standards of robustness required for use in arduous environments before they went anywhere near serious end-users. He agreed and off I went to Malaysia for a fortnight with the Maddog Adventures crew to go and thrash our kit in the jungle. Nothing beats real world feedback, and the jungle is the harshest environment to test kit in.

I’m very proud of the products we make at Fine Group. We feel a personal responsibility to those end-users who will be using what we have made in the most testing of circumstances. If we can’t trust it, it doesn’t go out the door!

The Vector Heavy Chest Pack is a super-robust and versatile piece of expedition equipment. Allowing you to keep key pieces of survival and navigation equipment to hand in a chest mounted pack. Your critical equipment can stay with you even when you pack is off. Ideal for kayaks and canoes, mountain biking, as well as cross-country skiing, or even simply hiking and trekking. The laser cut PALS in the outside, base and inside the two compartments allows you to organise and customise your equipment even more.

• Laser Cut Laminate: Made from the same tough laminate fabric as our Vector Tactical products, and with laser cut PALS, the Heavy Chest Pack is incredibly flexible in terms of organisation. With PALS inside, outside, and even on the bottom, you can set this chest pack up for any activity.

• Internal Organisation: Both of the compartments feature internal organisation above and beyond the PALS panels, allowing you to find your key equipment without having to dig around.

• Water Resistant Zips: YKK Aquaguard Zips prevent water ingress and keep your critical equipment dry. Twin zips on each opening make sure that you have redundancy enabling you to still seal the compartment in the unlikely event a zip slider should fail.

• Mesh Harness: A highly breathable and robust harness made from the same military-grade mesh as our Vector Tactical Side Pouches. Contoured to wrap your shoulders for day-long comfort, no matter what your activity. Fully adjustable to fit you regardless of your shape. Held in place by metal G-Hooks for maximum strength and to make taking it on and off a doddle.

EOTECH Launches New EXPS3 HD, All Aluminum HWS

Friday, January 16th, 2026

Plymouth, MI (January 2026) – When something is ultra-tough and can withstand even the harshest conditions, you must ask yourself “Why would I want to make this even tougher?” The answer is because you can. For over 30 years, EOTECH has been manufacturing durable, dependable Holographic Weapon Sights for use in law enforcement, military, competition, hunting and recreational use. It has become the go-to 1X optic you can count on. HWS optics were designed to include a ruggedized aluminum hood that wraps around the housing of the sight to provide extreme strength and durability. Until now.

New for 2026, EOTECH introduces the EXPS3 HD, featuring an all-aluminum housing. This Heavy-Duty model allows EOTECH to eliminate the aluminum hood and provide users with an enhanced field-of-view and better situational awareness.

The EXPS3 HD includes a few new features never offered in an HWS. First, the rubberized buttons that manipulate reticle brightness and NV settings, has been replaced with an easy-to-use rotary dial. This dial offers 7 daylight and 4 night-vision brightness settings as well as an OFF position. In addition, the dial offers an Auto-Brightness setting that automatically adjusts to surrounding light conditions, removing the need for manual adjustments. Lastly, the rotarydial allows EOTECH to incorporate Shake-Awake technologythat puts the optic in sleep mode after a period of inactivity. This programmable sleep mode can be set to 10 minutes, 1-hour, 12-hours, or disabled completely. This feature works in all daytime, NV, and auto-bright settings and preserves battery life, while powering the optic on with only the slightest movement.

The EXPS3 HD weighs the same as the legacy EXPS (11.2 oz) and is powered by a single, CR123 lithium battery. Integrated into the housing is a locking, adjustable quick-detach base that allows for immediate removal or attachment. The trusty 68MOA ring and 1MOA aiming dotprovides uncompromising speed to target and accuracy. Both waterproof and fogproof, this battle-tested sight works even if the sight window breaks or becomes partially obstructed.

The HD model is ideal for close to medium distance engagements. With its rugged metal construction and its ability to withstand extreme levels of recoil, it can be used with virtually any firearm and caliber. The Heavy Duty EXPS3from EOTECH. The tough just got tougher.
