Butler Creek Featherlight Multi-Purpose Sling Now Shipping

Sunday, May 3rd, 2020

OVERLAND PARK, Kansas – April 27, 2020 – Butler Creek, maker of smart, field-proven hunting and shooting accessories, announced today that the company’s new Featherlight sling is now shipping to retail partners and is available for purchase on the Butler Creek website.

The new Featherlight sling features an industry first design made from close cell foam and is 45% lighter than any other sling made by the company. The foam material not only helps to reduce weight but allows the sling to be extremely durable making it the perfect addition for any long gun this hunting season.

As comfortable as it is durable, the Featherlight is a true multi-purpose sling. Whether used on bolt-action, shotgun or modern sporting rifles, the Featherlight sling makes transporting any firearm into the field a breeze. Optional swivels or a conventional strap allow it to be easily added to any firearm, providing all day comfort on the most strenuous hunts.

Once in the field, hunters and shooters will appreciate the Featherlight’s breathable construction. Made possible by cut out slots that are evenly spaced across the close cell foam, the Featherlight sling reduces more trapped heat than other competitive models. The Featherlight’s close cell foam also provides superior gripping ability, allowing it to easily adhere to synthetic clothing.

For added security when navigating rough terrain, the Featherlight sling features a large thumb loop attached to the bottom of the sling. Additional features include two built-in cartridge holders giving shooters immediate access to extra ammo should the need arise. Adjustable from 22 to 36-inches, the Featherlight sling can be easily tailored to meet the required length of any user. 

The new Featherlight slings are available in two color options and carry an MSRP of $34.95.

SureFire Spotlight: The 3P Eliminator

Saturday, May 2nd, 2020

SureFire Spotlight videos are a high level rundown of specific products. This one focuses on the 3P Eliminator.

 

SureFire’s 3P Eliminator three-prong flash hider features a patent-pending design that greatly reduces muzzle flash — typically greater than 99%—when compared with a plain muzzle. Boasting robust tines built to withstand the rigors of combat, the SureFire 3P Eliminator duplicates the key functional design elements of the SureFire SF3P flash hider, but unlike the latter it cannot be used to mount SureFire SOCOM suppressors.

Precision machined from US mill-certified steel bar stock—including high-precision single-point cut threads for optimum thread interface—the SureFire 3P Eliminator muzzle brake has a black Melonite finish that provides maximum protection under harsh environmental conditions and facilitates cleaning even after extreme use.

Anarchy Outdoors Introduces The First Adjustable Ergonomic Bolt Handle

Wednesday, April 29th, 2020

North Logan, UT- Anarchy Outdoors, a leading industry innovator and supplier of precision rifle components and other high-performance firearms accessories, has introduced a significant improvement in bolt action ergonomics with the development of their new Threaded Adjustable Bolt Handle for the Tikka T1X and the Bergara B14 Rimfire.   No two rifle shooters are exactly alike and how each manipulates a bolt action may vary slightly because of stature, hand size or technique.  The new Threaded Adjustable Bolt Handle lets the shooter adjust how much the bolt handle is swept rearward which can have a significant effect on the functionality.   Anarchy Outdoors is developing this new bolt handle for other models of rifles as well.

Part of maximizing the accuracy and functionality of any rifle system is properly fitting it to the shooter.  The Threaded Adjustable Bolt Handle addresses the fine motor skills of how the shooter works the action, enabling precise placement of where handle and bolt knob are located in relation to the shooter’s hand.  The sweep of the handle can be adjusted by rotation so it is closer to the grip and rifle or further away.  Fine tuning the location of the bolt knob can have a dramatic effect on the overall feel of the rifle when working the bolt action.  Installation and adjustment are simple, and once the handle is tuned to the user’s preference, simply lock it in place with the knurled locking collar.

Anarchy Outdoors is the leader in aftermarket bolt handle upgrades offering models for rifles including Ruger, Tikka, CZ, Thompson Center, Winchester, various rimfires and more.  The Anarchy Outdoors Threaded Adjustable Bolt Handles are the next evolution in their bolt handle upgrade product line.  They are currently available, accept any bolt knob with 5/16”-24TPI and are made from 17-4 Stainless steel with a satin finish or blackened finish.  The Threaded Adjustable Bolt Handles have an MSRP of $54.99.
