PDW Raider Field Pant NYCO+

Thursday, May 21st, 2020

Full Featured Field Pant in Ripstop Stretch, Made in USA

 

Prometheus Design Werx launches their best selling Raider Field Pant updated in their new stretch ripstop NYCO+ fabric. Built as an all season, rugged field pant, this style is a non-cargo design in a clean utility appearance, built for the outdoors and today’s active EDC user in mind. A total of 11 pockets to stash and organize as little or as many EDC items as needed. PDW upgraded their MILSPEC type NYCPO ripstop by adding a stretch fiber for unparalleled comfort and mobility in this type of utility wear fabric. Dedicated EDC Tool Pockets, dual no-twist custom made delta rings for keychain-carabineer clip points, 4 welt pockets and double layer articulated reinforced knees round out these pant’s features. Produced with industrial grade triple needle stitching on all major seams. Built to last in California, USA.

The Raider Field Pant NYCO+ is available in Transitional Field Green, All Terrain Brown, and Universal Field Gray.

The Design and R&D Team at PDW states:

 

“This is our best selling pant style since its debut. Updated with our new NYCO+ ripstop with stretch, this is in our opinion, the most comfortable field and utility pant made in a military type ripstop material available. The added stretch makes a notable level up in everyday comfort and extra range of mobility when on the go. NYCO ripstop is a good all season weight and can be worn year ‘round. Our well-tailored regular fit isn’t too slim or too relaxed. It’s a fit that can be worn for years to come and supersedes trends and puts its focus on purpose and utility. Our Raider Field Pant has been worn on just about every continent, by all types of users, on the trail, off the trail, down range, overland, on the job and off the grid. One of the best and few, great American made, everyday field and utility pants.”

The Raider Field Pant NYCO+ is available for now via their website, prometheusdesignwerx.com.

Rosco Manufacturing Extends Line of Purebred M-Lok Handguards to Include 7”, 10.75”, and 13” Lengths

Wednesday, May 20th, 2020

May 19th, 2020: Rosco Manufacturing, an American manufacturer of high-quality gun barrels & accessories, is proud to announce the launching of their newly released products – the Purebred M-Lok handguards in 7”, 10.75”, & 13”. In the never-ending pursuit to expand their list of quality products offered, Rosco has brought their new line of Purebred accessories to the market jointly designed for the barrel maker by industry leading artisans, American Defense Mfg.

The new Rosco designed Purebred M-Lok rails feature precision machining from 6061 aluminum, type 3 hard-coat anodizing and tightened tolerances to enhance the performance/ fitment of the Bloodline & Purebred barrels. Current versions of the rails offered were the 9”, 13.5”, & 15” M-Lok handguards. With the addition of the new Purebred M-Lok handguards in 7”, 10.75”, & 13” every barrel from 5.5” and up will be covered.

The 13” Purebred is a Rosco exclusive and was designed specifically for carbines employing 13.7” barrels. It allows the end user to use muzzle devices that are quick detach platforms for suppressors. Most commercially available 13” + rails will cover the muzzle device blocking access to suppressors. They could also cause a catastrophic failure if carbine builders shoot a rifle with a muzzle device that is covered (even partially) by a rail. The new Rosco 13” Purebred handguard is perfect for this combo and can be used for any other configuration longer than 13.7” as well.  

“With the addition of these new handguards we have been able to provide customers with the products that they have been requesting from us for some time. This is our true test as a manufacturer, to be able to intake consumer need and turn that into products that will truly benefit our customers.” – Gabriel Cabrera (Marketing/ Sales Director).

Effective immediately, the following Rosco products are live and for sale:

Purebred 7” M-Lok handguard. $130.00

Purebred 10.75” M-Lok handguard. $150.00

Purebred 13” M-Lok handguards. $173.99

The company also introduces two additional models of the light, including one for the Mossberg 590® Shockwave and a Less Lethal Orange model for Remington® Model 870™ and 870 TAC-14 pump-action shotguns.  All four models now deliver 1,000 lumens.

With its increased brightness and sleek design, the TL-Racker® is ideal for door breaching, close quarter maneuvers and other tactical operations. Featuring a large, ambidextrous switch pad it provides easy access for both momentary and constant on functions, and accommodates virtually any hand size.  The elongated switch pad allows for thumb or finger activation with no changes in grip; both left- and right-handed shooters can use it without having to make modifications to the light or gun.

Powered by two included CR123A lithium batteries, the TL-Racker® features a customised optic that produces a concentrated beam with optimum peripheral illumination.  Offering a high setting only, the TL-Racker® delivers 1,000 lumens and 20,000 candela over a 283-metre beam distance, with a 1.5 hour run time.  It is available in several models, designed to work with either Mossberg 500®/590® with either a 6 ¾ or 7 ¾ action slide, or the Remington® Model 870™ and 870 TAC-14 pump-action shotguns. With a body constructed from super tough, impact-resistant engineered polymer that is virtually indestructible, the new model also now features an IPX7-rated design for waterproof operation.

The QUICK from SOLGW

Tuesday, May 19th, 2020

May 2020 – San Antonio, Texas – Sons of Liberty Gun Works (SOLGW) in collaboration with Forward Controls Design (FCD) set out to create a safety that’s an embodiment of our considerable experience in AR15/M16 selector design and knowledge over the years. This collaboration resulted in the “Quick”.

The Quick was designed from the ground up to be a defense/duty/combat safety selector. Its’ mission is quite aptly reflected by the way its’ levers are attached the center, via a stainless-steel roll pin. The lever to center interface is incredibly strong, the high shear strength (800 lbs) 420 stainless steel spring steel roll pin simply holds the two in place and doesn’t handle any load. One of the design goals dictates there be no wobble between the lever and center, we’ve called for very tight tolerances (+0.001/-0.00) on the Quick’s lever and center interface to achieve that.

The Quick is shipped with a selector spring, a nitrided selector detent, two levers, 4 roll pins (two are needed for installation, with 2 spares).

We do not ship the Quick with one lever installed as we recommend installing the center (dimple forward) and installing the grip, allowing the detent to hold the center in place. Using a vice block to then hold the lower receiver as both levers are installed.

Quick centers are billet machined in 4140, heat treated and black nitrided. Levers are billet machined in 4140 and black nitrided.

Manufactured 100% in the USA.
