You can also insert their pads into the elbows.

Additionally, it will integrate the MkI liner for cold weather riding.

This Coyote is a new custom color for their American Hoodie.

The Freya Magwell takes its DNA from the Sentinel Design Magwell for the GLOCK. There are four versions of this new RCS model, which will fit Gen 3 and 4 version of both the GLOCK 17 and 19. Make sure you order the right one.

Unlike other Magwells on the market, it accepts standard magazine base plates and keeps the pistol concealable.

SHOT Show – Biothane Belt

Wednesday, January 20th, 2016

So I’m in the Murdock Webbing booth when I spy a belt made from their Jacquard webbing in Kryptek Mandrake, treated with Biothane. I remarked that I didn’t realize there was Biothane webbing that thin. Then, the guys from Austrialpin added their Vobra buckle to the mix and we had a new concept for a belt.

The belt is not available, but the stuff to make it is.

SHOT Show – Magpul’s Bag, Claymore, Happy

Wednesday, January 20th, 2016

There was a hidden gem in the Magpul booth. The Happy Claymore Bag is the result of the CORE team attempting to make a better bag for the M18A1 Claymore Mine. I don’t know what I like more, the smiley face at the front of the bag, the instructions and illustrations, or the actual functionality itself.

The bag opens up to expose a large sheet, similar to a rope bag which includes the instructions. This also makes it a good choice for an SSE bag. Open it up, place it on a flat surface, throw items of interest on the sheet, grab the four corners and all the loot slides into the bag. Of course, as you can see, the Happy Claymore Bag has lots of other uses as well.

Coming soonish from www.magpul.com.

SHOT Show – Balor Mount by Raven Concealment Systems

Wednesday, January 20th, 2016

Designed to fit any 9mm or .40 double stack GLOCK, the Balor is a two-piece design that requires no gunsmithing or alteration of your slide other than removing the rear sight and backplate.

One component slides into the rear sight dovetail and the other takes the place of the factory backplate. Once emplaced, the two components are automatically centered in order to bolt together. The result is a strong clamp-like effect on the slide. Steel construction means that it won’t fall apart through thousands of rounds.

Another really cool feature is that it incorporates back up iron sights across the mount itself. The rear is a line that can be filled in by the user and the front is a GLOCK sight.

Available for the Aimpoint T-1 and Trijicon RMR. Shipping 1 May.
