Shop Show 23 – Sojourn Group

Thursday, October 19th, 2023

Sojourn Group is a small business which develops and produces niche firearms accessories. Using additive manufacturing they offer versions of some of their designs while they wait for molds to be produced. Others are already in full production using Zytel.

They showed three of their most popular products at Shop Show which are all M-LOK mounts for weapon light switches. The mounts offer a raised edge around the switch to both protect it from being accidentally activated and to help index the switch.

Tyrant CNC Patent Pending Safety Blade Trigger for SIG SAUER P365 Enters the Final Stages of R&D

Friday, October 13th, 2023

Chicago, IL 10.11.23— For those who appreciate the nuances of firearm mechanics and demand the best in performance and precision in their equipment, Tyrant CNC, an avant-garde in firearm customization, has confirmed that its highly anticipated, patented safety blade design IntelliFire™ Trigger System for the esteemed SIG SAUER P365 is almost here. It is said that the release date is targeted between Black Friday and Christmas. See more info plus Product renderings below:

The SIG SAUER P365, celebrated for its compact design and formidable delivery, now meets its perfect match in the IntelliFire™. This trigger isn’t merely an aesthetic modification; it’s an evolution, engineered specifically for all P365 variants. The trigger not only is the first of its kind to feature a safety blade system that is compatible with all P365 grip modules, but it also boasts a 30% reduced take up/pre-travel, a true 90-degree break, and works WITH the OEM internal safety mechanisms. 

The IntelliFire™ speaks volumes of Tyrant CNC’s engineering ethos. Its shoe, CNC Machined from 17-4 stainless steel is already a stronger steel than used over the OEM. Mated with that steel trigger shoe are dual 6061 anodized aluminum trigger blades operated by a single, specially designed stainless steel and heat-treated spring. All of these quality, made in the USA parts/components are purposely chosen for their reliability, aiming to outpace the firearm’s very own duty cycle. 

Perhaps the crown jewel of the IntelliFire™ is its patent-pending dual safety blade system. Given the P365’s inherent grip module constraints, a traditional safety blade design is impossible. Here, Tyrant CNC’s engineering acumen took center stage. By engineering a 3:1 lever ratio system, the trigger is able to operate like any industry standard safety-bladed trigger, using the grip module to stop the trigger travel and prevent an inadvertent fire. 

The IntelliFire™ epitomizes calculated engineering. A staggering 30% reduction in pre-travel testifies to its refined mechanics. Tyrant CNC’s patented hybrid trigger ergonomics further amplify the user experience, ensuring a steadfast 90-degree break. This culmination of mechanical refinement and ergonomic design promises unparalleled shooting consistency.

In summation, the IntelliFire™ Trigger System is not just a product; it’s an engineering marvel. By melding unparalleled safety features with enhanced performance metrics, Tyrant CNC is poised to redefine the SIG SAUER P365 experience.

Butler Creek Element Gun Covers for Rifles and Shotguns Now Available

Wednesday, October 11th, 2023

Gun Cover Designed Specifically for Hot Suppressors with New Heat Shield Technology

 

OVERLAND PARK, Kan. – October 10, 2023 – Butler Creek®, maker of smart, field-proven hunting and shooting accessories, is now shipping its new Element Gun Cover for rifles and shotguns. With its durable, water- and abrasion-resistant fabric, this rifle and shotgun case protects your firearm from the harshest conditions in the backcountry or on the range. The Element gun cover is also available in a suppressor ready model featuring a unique “Heat Shield” technology. This optional feature allows the cover’s heat resistant fabric (up to 900 degrees) to securely store firearms before they have fully cooled down.

“Whether you’re trying to keep grandpa’s old rifle safe from bumps and bruises, or just trying to stay one step ahead of potential rust when the rain and snow flies, the Butler Creek Element Gun Cover is a versatile solution for any long gun,” said Monte Koenigs, product manager for Butler Creek. “We also wanted to give today’s gun owners peace of mind when using suppressors or other muzzle devices. With the Element Gun Cover’s Heat Shield fabric, firearms can be placed directly into the case, regardless of whether the barrel or muzzle is hot from recent use.”

The Butler Creek Element Gun Cover fits rifles and shotguns between 41″ and 54″ in length, plus it’s compatible with firearms outfitted with optics. Depending on Element Gun Cover model, it is also compatible with or without suppressors. Over 14” of the high temperature-resistant Heat Shield fabric has been placed in the muzzle end of the cover allowing it to stand up to hot suppressors. It also boasts enough space to fit most full-sized suppressors even if equipped with mirage cover. A gap on the bottom allows for sling or bipod access.

The gun cover is also designed for quick removal so you can get your rifle back into action at a moment’s notice. When not needed, the entire cover can easily be stuffed into your pack.

Both models of the Butler Creek Element Gun Cover offer gun owners an affordable, durable option to protect their firearm for less than $50. To learn more about the Gun Cover or to see Butler Creek’s full selection of hunting accessories, check out ButlerCreek.com.

SOG Knives – BAR15T Tanto Bayonet

Friday, October 6th, 2023

There just aren’t a lot of bayonets on the market so when a new one pops up, I’ve got to mention it. Meet the BAR15T Tanto Bayonet from SOG Knives.

It features a 7-inch Tanto-shaped blade made from AUS-8 steel and G10 grip. It weighs 19.2 ounces and has an overall length of 12.2 inches. Fitted with an AR-compatible barrel ring it should fit rifles with Mil-Spec muzzle devices.

However, your rifle will also need a bayonet lug which is integral to the base of a Mil-Spec rifle’s Front Sight Post but isn’t generally found on those without the sight triangle. Your rifle will also require sufficient barrel space to accommodate the length of the bayonet handle, between the ring and attachment.

If you find yourself in this situation but just have to have that bayonet, you might check out the bayonet lug from Cogburn Arsenal. I’m sure there are a few other options out there as well.

Finally, it naturally comes with a sheath.

The ACF is a monolithic charging handle that retains the dual latches of the SIG MCX factory charging handle, and incorporates an oversized gas fence.
