Wednesday, May 22nd, 2019

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.

PS Magazine Reminds You To Protect Your M320 Sight

Wednesday, May 22nd, 2019

PS, the US Army’s Preventive Maintenance Monthly has this reminder:

Too many M320A1 grenade launcher sight supports are being cracked or broken. The only fix is to order the entire leaf sight assembly kit, NSN 1005-01-564-2663, for $55. And sometimes it can take a long time to get the kit.

But much of this damage is preventable if Soldiers and armorers just exercise a little care. The most critical thing to remember is don’t stack anything on top of an M320A1!

In the arms room, armorers often store M320A1s on shelves and then pile equipment on top, including other grenade launchers. Laying grenade launchers on shelves is fine. Just don’t put anything on top of them.

Same thing goes for trips to the field. Don’t pile equipment on M320A1s and don’t let them bounce around in the back of a truck. A good investment is a sturdy container for transport that protects launchers from equipment and feet. You can probably find containers around the unit that will work.

XTech Tactical Expands Partnership with GOA with OEM47 10/30

Friday, May 3rd, 2019

Mesa, AZ

XTech Tactical, one of the fastest growing firearms accessory manufactures, is now shipping its OEM47 10/30 (MSRP $19.95) as an expansion of its “Commufornia Special” magazine line. Like the MAG47 10/30, $1 for each magazine sold off the company’s website will go towards Gun Owners of America to fight for gun rights. The magazines will also ship with a $5 off annual membership offer to Gun Owners of America.

The XTech Tactical “Commufornia Special” offers a field strippable 10rd magazine in a 30rd magazine body. This permits much easy mag changes and insertion into the rifle, while still permitting the user to clean the magazine. The term “Commufornia Special” is intended to remind and encourage the company’s customers to get involved in protecting their rights as firearms owners and supporters of the Constitution.

The OEM 10/30 will not function if its blocker is removed due to its reduced spring, and the magazine is only marked as a 10-round magazine.

About the OEM47 Line:

The OEM47 line is a result of numerous requests from rifle manufactures for XTech Tactical to offer a lower cost AK 7.62×39 magazine option to include with the sale of their rifles. However, the company would not settle for simply making a less expensive option without optimizing the value and its competitive placement in the market. The OEM47 line features an all polymer construction using a proprietary composite blend.

After 9 months of development the polymer permits the 30rd, standard capacity, version of the OEM47 to pass drop tests that more expensive US Made AK magazines will not.

The OEM47 line currently is only available as the OEM47 10/30 with the standard capacity 30rd option soon to follow. The OEM47 line up offers a great value to those looking for magazines for recreational and range use. For those looking for a battle-ready magazine, the MAG47 offers the most advanced US manufactured AK magazine on the market. The MAG47 features the most advanced polymer, stainless steel feedlips and locking lugs, where-as, the OEM47 is an all polymer construction.

Dealers can contact dealers@xtechtactical.com or Zanders Sporting Goods.
