TangoDown® Inc. is pleased to announce the latest addition to the lineup – the Vickers Tactical™ Slide Stop for GLOCK® 43X and 48 (VTSS-004).  When GLOCK® expanded their single stack line, we extensively tested our existing slide stop for the G42/G43 models to evaluate compatibility.  Therefore, the VTSS-004 has an uprated return spring to accommodate the increased slide mass of the G48 for consistent reliability.  The thumb pad is reshaped with deep serrations which allows for easy manipulation even while wearing gloves.  If you love the Vickers Tactical™ Slide Stops on your other GLOCK® firearms, you’re sure to love this one too.

Tuesday, May 21st, 2019

AttackPAK has created custom products to give our war-fighters the edge.

AttackPAK’s newest custom design is based on our Multi Purpose Carrier and Bison bags. Shaving weight by getting rid of rows or pals/molle and using lightweight fabrics made for a truly innovative system that is the lightest method to carry your gear & your weapon. The design eliminates pounds of parasitic weight found in other leading packs to reduce the war-fighter’s burden. Here is the newest custom designed that weighs 3.5 pounds with belt, ExoSpine™ and bags.

Shooter Bag

Custom design for a shooter participating in the ‘Competition Dynamics Sniper Challenge 2019’ this offering comes in at an astonishingly light 3.5 pounds!

A versatile method to carry your long gun and gear. List a couple of features

Beaver Tail made out of durable Centurion Fabric

The Bison Kit is the original modular version that was developed for EOD to carry the PLT-5 comfortably. It can be combined with a Predator Assault pack to act like a “Crew-cab”, but weighing 4 pounds less. The investment for the entire kit is about $800, and will configure to 6 different load bearing options. If you were to buy the same 6 pack capability from other vendors, the cost will be over $1,600.

Civilian Carry Radio Announces Tatiana Whitlock As New Co-Host For Podcast

Tuesday, May 21st, 2019

Virginia – May 20, 2019, Civilian Carry Radio on the Firearms Radio Network, announced today that Tatiana Whitlock will join one of the fastest growing podcasts on firearms and the 2nd Amendment, effective May 29th, 2019. Civilian Carry Radio show broadcasts weekly on Wednesdays from 8pm to 9:30pm EST.

Tatiana will join the team led by the show’s founders Baraka Ulrich James and Allen Sams. The shows conversational and engaging approach of bridging the span between the everyday gun owner and firearms industry subject matter experts has led to its success and loyal viewership nationwide.

“I am honored to be invited to join Civilian Carry Radio as their new co-host! As a long time fan, and guest on the show believe in its mission that focuses on the importance of the 2nd amendment, firearms safety, education, training and mindset. Contributing to each episode is contributing to a legacy of knowledge and information from each guest we have join us!” Says Whitlock.

The show’s programming and content is also available across various platforms including F irearms Radio Network, iTunes, iHeartRadio, Spotify, Google Play Music, Stitcher, TuneIN, PodBean, On Speaker, Player FM, YouTube and more.

“After meeting Tatiana at SHOT Show in 2013, I watched her grow and progress in the gun and firearms community. I was so impressed with her work ethic and continuously hearing the positive feedback of people who trained with her. After having Tatiana appear as a guest on our show twice, I was overwhelmed by her knowledge, her teaching skills, her delivery and her way of disseminating complex information in a way that is easily digestible to the masses. With Allen and I being civilians (who did not serve in the military, not prior law enforcement) and with Tatiana having a similar background as us, but also putting in the same kind of time, effort, diligence and discipline to go out and learn on her own volition, I had to have her on our team! She is the perfect complement to round up and complete our show. We are honored that she accepted our invitation and look forward to the future with her now on board!”

Says show owner, producer and host Baraka James.

S.H.A.D.O. Pack 24L

Tuesday, May 21st, 2019

PDW’s Next Gen Adventure Daypack

C99C467A-CAF7-40FC-B765-9FE8470957A2

For Summer 2019 Prometheus Design Werx introduces their next generation of S.H.A.D.O. Packs in a new 24L / 1465 cubic inch volume size. Completely upgraded and updated for 2019, this daypack is designed for the well-equipped global adventurist. The 500D Invista Cordura® used is an ideal balance of ruggedness and lighter carry weight. Ample pockets, modular accessories and the total feature set gives the S.H.A.D.O. Pack 24L tremendous user versatility and capability from use in the backcountry to EDC, and almost anything in-between. Comes complete with removable Gear Trap™, 3-Stage ToF Belt™, EDCO Panel™, Admin Panel, and multi-purpose frame sheet.

The Prometheus Design Werx S.H.A.D.O. Pack 24L is the first model in their next generation of nylon soft-goods and will be available in All Terrain Brown and Universal Field Gray.

A586C2BB-582F-4306-B374-B6B419626951

The Design and R&D Team at PDW states:

“This new gen SHADO Pack 24L represents a total refresh of how we approached our nylon soft-goods. We engaged a new manufacturing partner that had far reaching and impressive modern production capabilities, extensive experience in producing top tier technical alpine and mountaineering packs; and also presented us with experimental prototypes [made for a group we are unable to mention by name], which honestly kinda blew our mind. For the first time we were able design a pack from the ground up without constraints. Previous to the SHADO 24, we designed what we wanted, but then based on our previous factory’s limitations, prohibitive costing, and/or inability to grasp our design requirements, became a reductive process of removing features/details. Not this time, not with this pack. Users will be able to see and feel it with the SHADO 24. The quality of make, attention to detail, fully rendered features, made to spec materials from top to bottom, etc; it’s all there. We categorize this as an ‘adventure class pack’. It’s ultimately designed for a user who chooses to engage in a lifestyle that is as multiplied as they are, not subject to limits, and makes their own way.”

The new PDW S.H.A.D.O. Pack 24L will be available for $198.00 on Wednesday, May 22, 2019 at 12:00 noon PT via their website, prometheusdesignwerx.com.
