Better The Hunt Beats the Cold with Insulated Shotgun Mitt

Tuesday, April 27th, 2021

Many hunters understand the challenge of hunting in extreme cold weather. Whether it’s a late season duck limit you’re aiming to fill, walking the snow-covered prairie for upland birds, or mother nature simply does her thing and throws you a wet, cold, snowy curveball, hunting in cold weather can be a real challenge. That’s why Better The Hunt set out to help hunters find a new way to fight off the cold. Enjoying late-season hunts without pain or discomfort from the cold is now a possibility for shotgun hunters thanks to the Insulated Shotgun Mitt from Better The Hunt.

The unique design of this mitt allows for it to install on almost any style or brand of shotgun with ease and will help fight off the bitter cold that often occurs during late season hunting. The Insulated Shotgun Mitt also eliminates the need to fumble around with thick heavy gloves and mittens that would otherwise be needed to keep warm in the Midwest winters.

JK Armament Announces Official Release of War Eagle Comp/Flash Hider Device

Monday, April 26th, 2021

Bruneau, ID (April 23, 2021)- JK Armament is proud to announce the highly anticipated release of the War Eagle muzzle device. Not only is the War Eagle an exceptional device for combating both muzzle signature and felt recoil, but installation is also extremely user-friendly without the need for shims, timing, or any special tools. The War Eagle Comp/Flash Hider is designed to interface with the Quick-Attach Taper Mount 1 for use with any JK 155 Modular Solvent Traps or most 1.375×24 TPI HUB-compatible attachments. It also compatible with all SilencerCo® ASR™ mounting systems without the need for additional locking mechanisms. 

“We’ve been developing the War Eagle from the very beginning, and we’re just as excited as our customers to see a new, easy-to-use, advanced mounting option for solvent traps and silencers” states Jake Kunksy, founder and owner of JK Armament. Kunksy further says, “The taper on the War Eagle ensures concentricity and also prevents a solvent trap or silencer from backing off of the mount. Ultimately you end up with an incredibly strong seal that still allows for rapid attachment or removal of solvent traps for transport or swapping from gun-to-gun while on the range”

The JKA War Eagle is available in two different pitches; 1/2×28 TPI for .22LR and 5.56mm and 5/8×24 TPI for .30-caliber devices. Pistol-caliber devices are anticipated later in the year.

Griffin Armament Announces The SR-RIGID M-LOK Rail Family

Monday, April 19th, 2021

Watertown WI, April 15th, 2021 –

Griffin Armament® M-LOK compatible SR-RIGID™ rails (Suppressor Ready – Rigid) allow up to 1.5” outside diameter silencers to be mounted inside the octagonal M-LOK rail. This provides suppressor aficionados a sleek, and compact overall length to AR15 type firearms.

Design objectives of this rail were to provide a suppressor compatible rail, with increased rigidity and durability over similar weight and profile current market options. A custom extrusion provides significant internal reinforcements to reduce flex when loading the carbine on the rail.

Evan Green, Business Manager at Griffin Armament states,

“We understand the importance of low light targeting with IR lasers and other low light targeting systems.  Reducing flex with our ID reinforcement spars reduces POI shift related to rail mounted lasers and night vision clip-ons. These rails offer more accuracy (less flex) than their competition which means more lethality under hours of darkness.”

These reinforcements provide rigid mounting for IR laser aimers ensuring minimal POI shift when torque is applied to fore-grip type accessories, or when loads are applied to the rail such as practical shooting off barricades or when loading bipods for rapid follow up shots. Internal practical testing showed substantial reductions in POI shift with laser aimers versus competing “slim rails” that lacked this notable product feature.

The new SR-RIGID™ rails features a close tolerance, heavy-duty, 7075 aluminum, T-6, type 3 hard coat anodized finish. The barrel nut can be easily installed to 35-85 ft/lbs using the included Griffin Armorers Wrench.  The new slip fit clamp design is extremely user friendly and does not require any shims or special timing methods. The clamp geometry in the rear section of the rail is low profile and ergonomically pleasing even for long durations of extended carry at static security positions. Flat head T15 torx screws should be tightened to 25/in pounds. The included 45 degree picatinny QD sling swivel can be installed on the top picatinny rail to the desired position of the end user.  M-LOK flats on each 45 degree surface allow for mounting of your favorite M-LOK accessories. A contiguous picatinny top rail ensures repeatable and accurate mounting for night vision and thermal systems.

If you are looking for a high quality, feature rich, American made rail system for your AR15 type firearm look no further than Griffin Armament®  SR-RIGID™ rails.

TNVC and Forward Controls Design Panel, Cable Management-MLOK (PCM-MLOK)

Monday, April 19th, 2021

TNVC is proud to announce the release of a new collaborative project with Forward Controls Design, the Panel, Cable Management-MLOK (PCM-MLOK!

tnvc.com/shop/tnvc-fcd-pcm-mlok

Designed as a simple product to solve a simple problem, the PCM-MLOK provides remote switch cable management for mission critical accessories. In the past, end-users have either had to choose between placing accessories in less-than-optimal positions to locate the controls where they could be reached, or have had to use zip-ties, electrical tape, camoform fabric, and a myriad of other methods to manage device control cables.

The TNVC/FCD PCM-MLOK is a machined aluminum multi-directional cable management device that affixes to any MLOK-Compatible interface, and can be used to both route and protect remote device activation cables.

Unlike zip-ties or most other cable management solutions available on the market, the PCM-MLOK is designed to fully protect as much of the exposed cable as possible, preventing the “Night Monster” from grabbing and snagging exposed cable, causing damage to the cable, switches, or device connectors themselves. Nevertheless, creating a product that improves on cable management better than zip-ties is a more difficult task than it sounds like!

When seeking out a partner to develop a cable management system, we reached out to Forward Controls Design, a company known for its focus on function over form, and for taking the smallest and simplest components of the AR system that most people take for granted, and thoroughly studying their function, and finding ways to improve them.

The result of this collaboration is the TNVC/FCD PCM-MLOK, machined from aircraft grade aluminum billet by Arson Machine Co., which not only provides the best protection for remote switch cables, but allows for an open architecture, promoting airflow and head dissipation. The PCM also features Forward Controls Design signature “All Angles” dimpled surface texture, which both provides effective gripping surface from (get this) all angles, while also increasing surface area, further encouraging heat dissipation and mitigation.

While the use of machined aluminum makes the PCM more expensive than many other cable management solutions, it provides considerable functional improvements to other options, while largely eliminating what was once the “weak link” in visual augmentation systems device integration.

The internal cable channels can support cables up to 0.140? in diameter, accepting most common Surefire, Crane/Insight, and Unity Tactical remote switch cables, and the internal cable routing features a 0.150? radius to allowing cables to be routed at 90 degree angles without putting unnecessary stress on the cable with sharp kinks and corners.

The TNVC/FCD PCM-MLOK is proudly made and designed in the USA, and is Type III hard coat anodized in Black, Flat Dark Earth, and Olive Drab and retails for $29.99

SureFire Now Shipping XSC Family of Micro-compact Handgun WeaponLights

Monday, April 12th, 2021

Fountain Valley, CA—SureFire, LLC, manufacturer of the world’s finest—and most innovative—illumination tools and tactical products, is now shipping the all-new, rechargeable SureFire XSC family of micro-compact handgun WeaponLights. SureFire previously launched the XSC but ran into battery supply issues related to Covid-19. These logistics issues have since been corrected.

Extremely compact, lightweight, and durable, the XSC’s micro-footprint keeps your weapon concealable while providing the added security of a duty-grade WeaponLight. It measures less than 2 inches in length and weighs a mere 1.7 ounces—you won’t even know it’s there unless you need it. Every model in the XSC family seamlessly and securely attaches to specific handgun models: The XSC-A fits the GLOCK 43X & 48 with accessory rail, and also GLOCK 43X MOS and 48 MOS models; the XSC-P365 fits the SIG SAUER P365, P365 X RomeoZero, P365 SAS, P365 XL, and P365 XL RomeoZero; the XSC-HELLCAT fits the Springfield Armory Hellcat and Hellcat RDP.

The XSC’s ambidextrous switching offers easy, intuitive momentary- or constant-on activation with one or two hands. Its premium LED delivers 350 lumens of intense white light via SureFire’s parabolic reflector technology, creating a concentrated hot spot with significant throw and surrounding spill. The resulting beam pattern provides excellent illumination at target distances up to 25 yards.

The XSC’s rugged aerospace aluminum body is MIL-A-8625 Type III, Class 2 hard-anodized for scratch and corrosion resistance. The lithium polymer battery can easily be changed without removing the WeaponLight from the host handgun, an essential feature for those who train with their gear. Every XSC comes with a SureFire cradle charger capable of charging two batteries simultaneously. Each battery features a LED fuel-gauge, displaying charge level upon the press of a button. If you’re serious about personal protection, there’s no excuse. The XSC is your only option.
