U.S. Representative Patrick Meehan (PA, 7th District) said, “The Marine Corps’ decision is great news for our warfighters. And ?having visited the Nielsen-Kellerman facilities in Boothwyn, Pennsylvania, and met the hard-working men and women who create this innovative product, the Marine Corps announcement is good for jobs and growth in Pennsylvania as well.”

The Kestrel 4500 with Applied Ballistics is a 4-ounce, hand-held meter that combines accurate wind, direction, temperature, pressure and humidity readings with a built-in advanced ballistics calculator and bullet performance database. The Kestrel outputs elevation and wind holds calculated for the precise weapon, round and target characteristics, allowing snipers to put first shots on target at 1000 yards and beyond.

Gadget Striker Control Device On Indiegogo

Friday, July 17th, 2015

Gadget

The Gadget Striker Control Device is a drop-in part for striker-fired pistols designed to provide an added level of safety when holstering the weapon. The Gadget replaces the standard slide plate on the back of Glock pistols. When thumb pressure is applied to the Gadget it blocks the striker, blocking the trigger bar and preventing the trigger from being pulled.

The Gadget was inspired by the standard procedure of applying pressure on hammer-fired guns when holstering them. However, the Gadget is completely passive, and doesn’t interfere with the action of the pistol unless acted upon. Additionally, in the event Gadget becomes inoperable, the inner slide plate remains in place, which will allow the pistol to continue to function even if the Gadget doesn’t.

To see how the Gadget works, check out the video below:

Wednesday, July 15th, 2015

Crimson XChange Technology™ Offers Ruger LC9s-Pro Laser or Light Options

Crimson Trace XChange Technology July2015

(Wilsonville, OR) — Crimson Trace, America’s leader in advancing laser sighting systems to standard equipment on concealed-carry and personal defense firearms, launches another industry leading innovation—the new Crimson XChange Technology™. Exclusively for Ruger, and more than 3 years in the making with US Patents issued, CXT delivers an interchangeable laser or light system for the LC9s-Pro. XChange Technology provides a from-the-factory appearance and form-fit, while also permitting the user to easily change from laser to light, quickly, easily and intuitively. All without “losing zero.”

“As the exclusive on-board choice for all Ruger personal protection firearms, we’re very proud to be launching this truly innovative technology with them”, said Kent Thomas, Crimson Trace Director of Marketing. “We’ve spent several years concepting and perfecting this system we feel significantly increases the user experience with laser sighting and illumination systems. Lastly, it reaffirms Crimson Trace as the industry leader for innovation, technology and growing the market for personal protection, and we’re looking forward to sharing even more innovations with the market very soon.”

This Ruger exclusive pistol package is shipped with the base and either CXT Red laser sight or 100 Lumen CXT Light pre-installed onto the LC9s-Pro frame. Via a simple push pin, the XChange Technology permits easily removing the laser sight from the pistol and then installing a light unit instead—or the reverse. Each unit is engaged by Crimson Trace’s Instinctive Activation™, assuring the user has the most preferred, accepted and trusted activation method in the industry. Battery life for the laser is 4 hours of continuous use, and the Light Module can be disengaged with a master on/off switch to conserve battery usage of the powerful LED, which is 2 hours.

These packages are immediately available exclusively through TALO Distributors and shopruger.com.
