Emissary Development Updates X300 Paddle Shifter for 2023

Wednesday, January 4th, 2023

An updated version of Emissary Development’s paddle shifter for the SureFire X300 weapon light is entering production.

They have added a set screw locking feature that gives the paddle shifter a significantly better hold onto the switch armature. This new feature will also makes install easier.

The armature port has also been opened to also aid in a smoother install. It also allows for better quality control during manufacturing.

They’ve also updated the paddle profile.

While nearly all holsters are compatible with the older model there were a handful of Safariland holsters that, due to the overhanging material in the holster opening, made it possible to snag the paddle and were therefore not listed as compatible (without modification) on the holster compatibility list. The new profile tucks the edge of the paddle closer to the frame to prevent any snag issues.

They still will recommend modifying the Safariland holsters to prevent any wear or unwanted contact with the paddle, but they believe this new profile adjustment will have a big difference when it comes to preventing snagging as a whole.

Emissary Development wants customers to know that if you’ve had any previous issues with holster compatibility with your older model they are offering to replace them with this new model. Reach out to their support team and they’ll take care of you.

Coming after SHOT Show.

XS Sights Introduces Lever Rails for Henry Big Boy Carbines

Tuesday, December 20th, 2022

Fort Worth, Texas (December 19, 2022) – XS® Sights is pleased to introduce new Lever Rails for Henry Big Boy carbines chambered in .357 Magnum (HN-6001R-N) and .44 Magnum (HN-6002R-N).

The XS Sights Lever Rails are machined from aircraft-grade aluminum and hard coat anodized to provide a lightweight mounting system that is tough enough for a lifetime of service. The rail bolts on to round barrel models of the Henry Big Boy – no gunsmithing required – for a quick, do-it-yourself upgrade. Machined to Mil-Std 1913 Picatinny specifications, the XS Lever Rail extends from the rear of the receiver to the front sight dovetail cut to allow mounting of any optic – red dot, scout scope, or low-powered variable optic (LPVO) – giving you the most versatile mounting platform available.

The XS Sights Lever Rails for the Henry Big Boy carbines are designed for carbines with steel receivers and round barrels. Due to differences in barrel contour, the rails and sights are caliber specific.

The XS Lever Rail will not fit carbines with brass receivers, and it will not fit carbines with octagonal barrels.

Retail Price: $72.00
