Bloomfield, NY – LaserMax has introduced the most anticipated laser product of 2019. The “Lightning” is a universal fit rail mounted laser with GripSense™ Activation Technology. The new laser fits any firearm with at least 1” of accessory rail space and is designed to withstand rigors of everyday concealed carry and hard duty use.

“Having the most advanced laser technology inside the firearm with our guide rod lasers, we now have the most advanced technology for outside the gun with GripSense,” said Kurt Worden Director of Sales for LaserMax Products. “Making this available now for pistols with rails opens up an entire new opportunity for consumers who don’t want to worry about pressing a button for activation”

GripSense represents the newest generation of laser activation technology by simplifying the activation process. The user simply grips the firearm, setting off a motion sensor once in the detection zone, which then activates the laser immediately and does not require the user to change their firing grip. Additionally, the Lightning with GripSense Activation Technology includes some significant innovations including a fully programmable operating mode, and up to twenty hours of continuous battery life-  safeguarded from inadvertent drain by a ten-minute time out feature. The Lightning will come in Vivid Red or Daytime Green, green being the most visible color to the human eye.

Key Features include:
  – Rail mounted allowing it to work with over 90% of pistols in the market today
  – GripSense Activation senses the users grip within the detection zone and activates the sight
  – Dual activation capable with either GripSense or controlled push button
  – Does not alter your shooting grip
  – Easily programmable for steady or high-vis pulsed beam
  –  External Battery access hatch with tool-less entry
  – Water resistant design
  – 5 year warranty

MSRP:
  – GS-LTN-R (Red) – $149.99
  – GS-LTN-G (Green) – $199.99

Enoch Industries Introduces the ODIN Chassis System, a Lightweight Chassis for the 10/22 Platform

Wednesday, June 19th, 2019

Spring Creek, TN, June 17, 2019 – Enoch Industries, designer and developer of top-tier firearm components, has recently unveiled their first product, the ODIN Chassis System, a lightweight and versatile system for the 10/22 platform. Weighing in at only 12.2 oz, this chassis system incorporates current AR-15 attachment standards, giving users a new level of function that standard 10/22 platforms fail to deliver.

The only 10/22 chassis available on the market with a Picatinny rail at the back, the ODIN Chassis System provides a better option for attaching a new standard of stocks and pistol braces. This flexibility features a smaller footprint and offers considerable weight savings over the standard receiver extension and buttstock combos. Machined from billet 6061-T6 aluminum, The ODIN Chassis System provides a rigid, no-compromise platform for building or upgrading a precision rifle or pack-lite pistol.

“This new chassis fills the gap in the market for a lightweight, modular system for the 10/22 platform,” said Joseph Sudderth, CEO of Enoch Industries. “While on the hunt for a lightweight chassis to upgrade a 10/22, we couldn’t find anything on the market that fit the bill. So we set out to design one that provided the flexibility and versatility that we needed, and the ODIN Chassis System was born.”

The ODIN Chassis System is designed to give competition shooters and 10/22 enthusiasts the freedom to customize their build for any number of unique setups. In the front of the chassis, MLok slots at 3, 6, and 9 o’clock allow for the addition of a variety of accessories while two steel, 360° quick disconnects on both sides of the chassis are ideal for running sling attachments. The ODIN Chassis System includes a grip adapter that closes the gap from the grip to trigger housing, keeping the transition to a minimum and providing a more enjoyable shooting experience. The chassis accepts all non-beavertail AR-15 grips, although some beavertail grips are compatible with minor modifications to the grip. The ODIN Chassis System also fits all standard, non-takedown receivers excluding the Supergrade. Other notable ODIN Chassis System specs include:

• Material: 6061-T6 Billet Aluminum

• Weight: 12.22 oz (including all hardware)

• Dimensions: 12.75” (L), 1.5” (W), 1.5” (H)

• Stocks: 3 Picatinny slots at the rear of chassis

• Attachments: MLok slots at 3, 6, and 9 o’clock

• QD Inserts: 2 nitrided 360° steel inserts

• Barrel channel inner dimension: 1.015″

• Barrel lengths: Using a 6″ barrel brings the threaded muzzle to .575″ past the handguard, exposing threads for silencers.

The new ODIN Chassis System is available online to customers in the US (excluding Puerto Rico) for an MSRP of $225 and includes the ODIN Chassis in anodized black along with all required hardware.

XTECH TACTICAL Once Again Raises the Bar for US AK Magazines

Sunday, June 9th, 2019

June 7th, 2019

Mesa, AZ – XTech Tactical, a rapidly growing firearms accessory manufacture, announces the release of two new core offerings in its AK magazine line up.

First in the lineup is the MAG47mil “Militia Special” which is the strongest US Made rifle magazine ever made. The MAG47mil was developed in response to a consumer torture test completed at the request of XTech Tactical. The company requested that consumers compare the MAG47’s durability to the legendary Bulgarian and Russian military issued magazines.

Not surprisingly, Spent Brass, a firearms social media channel, performed more brutal testing than the operators who had tortured the MAG47s for months prior to its release.

The MAG47mil features: Stainless Steel Feed-lips, a solid machined steel rear lug, stainless steel spring, extremely durable polymer, easy field stripping, and is 3 922r compliant components. MSRP for the MAG47mil is $34.95 and they are now shipping!

XTech Tactical is also extending its partnership with Gun Owners of America to donate $1 per MAG47mil sold off its website, as it currently does with it OEM47 10/30 and MAG47 10/30.

“We are proud to share that the MAG47mil was developed as a result of our direct interaction with consumers. With the ever-rising costs of the beforementioned options, we are very excited to continue to raise the bar for US AK magazines while supporting the fight to retain our standard capacity rights”, stated Jeremy Deadman, XTECH TACTICAL’s Director of Sales and Marketing.

The second new release from XTech Tactical is an entry level option for its AK47 magazine line up, the OEM47. The OEM47 is also Made in the USA and features the same geometry and flawless feeding as the MAG47 line without the steel reinforcements. The OEM47 is a great option for those seeking magazines for recreational use. The OEM47 MSRP is $14.95, and they are now shipping!

Please follow XTech Tactical on Instagram, Facebook, and sign up on their website newletter for many upcoming product releases, as the company continues to grow and expand its offerings. To learn more, visit XTech Tactical at www.xtechtactical.com.

Introducing ARC WML Enhanced Switches Bypass PHLster

Friday, June 7th, 2019

B0E66214-38EC-4B04-9E64-A15B8C721E0A

For years, serious shooters have been executing DIY modifications to their WML switches. Using JB Weld, putty, or epoxy, shooters have been improving their speed and consistency of WML activation by building up the small switch nubs on their lights. Drawing on those years of end-user experience, PHLster is excited to announce the launch of their ARC Enhanced WML Switches.

6AD4F7C9-2CA0-4A53-A8E4-77CEB4678A0E

Shipping as a set of three pairs of switch enhancements, the ARC allows users to decrease the distance between activation fingers and switches, optimize their light for right or left handed use, improve speed and consistency of activation based on their preferred method, and reliably engage the WML switches with gloved or wet hands.

EE1A5A8A-1C18-46C9-9D3C-0A09B0B8C447

Each set of switch enhancements includes a Large, Extra Large, and Extra Large Blank set of switches. The L and XL are both aggressively textured and the XL Blank allows users to shape, carve, and stipple the switches to fit their specific requirements, while remaining within a holster-friendly dimension.

D43E956B-E695-4994-BFA8-79321CBAB1E7

If you have short fingers, are tired of compromising your grip to activate the WML, dislike grip switches, need more reach to activate the switches when installed on certain pistols, or just want to make WML activation faster and easier, the PHLster ARC is a necessary upgrade.

511E71C2-913A-40B9-92FF-954BEC976EC4

Switch installation is easy and requires no permanent modification. The stock switch nubs are easily removed with pliers or a small screwdriver and the enhanced switch end- caps press on to the switch armature bar. And, the ARC switch enhancements fit pretty much every decent WML holster on the market, including Safariland and many, many others.

1D285379-3CC5-4769-A640-2D5AB42EDECD

At launch, the ARC is available at PHLsterHolsters.com and BigTexOutdoors.com for $24.99.
