B.E. Meyers and Dillon Aero join forces to showcase the capabilities of the high powered B.E. Meyers IZLID Ultra and DIAL 100G weapon lasers combined with the Dillion Aero M134D in ground based applications.

The IZLID Ultra is a Class 4 laser with a 990mW power output, resulting in a 7 kilometer maximum range which can be observed by aircraft and friendly forces with standard NODs.

Wednesday, July 15th, 2015

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

(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.

Vickers Tactical Slide Racker for G42 Available Now from TangoDown

Saturday, July 11th, 2015

After trying out the Glock 42, Larry Vickers realized that the cocking serrations were difficult to use due to the pistol’s small size. Specifically, the small slide, shallow finger purchase cuts and stout recoil spring assembly make for tough initial chambering, especially for women or anyone with less than optimal finger/hand strength.

LAV went to his “go-to” guys to help engineer a fix, and that’s how TangoDown got involved. The resulting GSR-01 is a top quality drop-in part that solves the issue cold. Injection molded of glass-reinforced nylon with stainless steel reinforcement just like the OEM part, it replaces the striker retention plate in minutes with no other modification to the sidearm. Once in place, the GSR-01 offers easy, effortless and positive slide cycling under any condition.
