I Spy With My Little Eye – 7.62×39 SCAR
Wednesday, June 25th, 2014Grey Ghost Gear Teams Up With Noveske Rifle Works
Wednesday, June 25th, 2014Two great brands making things happen together. I like it.
Dalton Gardens ID 23 June 14 – How do you determine the value of badass? Can it be reckoned, or is it incalculable?
You’re about to find out.
Grey Ghost Gear (which is bad ass) has teamed up with Noveske (which is equally bad ass). How bad ass is that?
Effective immediately, Grey Ghost Gear will be carrying Noveske uppers and soon you’ll be seeing complete rifles.
Asked to give some background to the relationship between the two innovative companies, GGG Despotrix-in-Charge Lindsey Lea advises, “The love story began with my very first SHOT Show ever. That’s where I met John and Sheri. We’ve been friends since then and now that that Grey Ghost has decided to carry weapons, Noveske was the obvious choice—both out of our respect for John and of course for the obvious fact that they’re superb rifles.”
Buyers will see a Noveske tab on the Grey Ghost website from which to choose from a variety of Noveske models, including the Infidel, Rogue Hunter in 16” and 18”, some of the 10” uppers in both 5.56 and 300BLK and others.
Noveske Rifle Works’ Sheri Johson echoes Lea’s sentiment. “The people at Grey Ghost Gear are some of the best I know, really,” Sheri says. I’ve been a fan forever. When they came to me about high quality AR parts…well, it was obvious we were going to do it.”
Rumor has it Grey Ghost Gear may reciprocate by building a Noveske-specific line of gear like concealed carry messenger bags, a 3-gun setup and the like. You’ll want to watch for that.
Fans of both GGG and Noveske are also well advised to keep an eye on both companies’ social media. There will be a joint giveaway soon involving both Facebook pages and possibly Instagram—prizes will be Noveske uppers and GGG goodness.
Grey Ghost Gear + Noveske……badass
Additional info exclusive to SSD
Grey Ghost Gear DOES already have their FFL, that’s was accomplished Wednesday of last week – so there WILL be full Noveske rifles carried on the GGG website.
Sheri Johnson from Noveske is talking to Lindsey Lea from GGG about GGG building them their own soft good series; that is going to happen, they’re just trying to decide what and when.
“Badass Squared” morale patches will soon be available.
GGG and Noveske will be giving away five (5) uppers jointly between their Facebook pages over Independence Day weekend. This was hinted at in the press release, but that’s the actual number and date. IF POSSIBLE (not confirmed yet) one of them will be signed by the entire Noveske shooting team.

Magpul – M-LOK Tips
Thursday, June 19th, 2014
Magpul has released an in-depth document detailing how to get the most out of the M-LOK system. For those who don’t know, M-LOK, which stands for Modular Lock System, is a license-free platform system developed by Magpul that serves as an evolution of the MOE slot system used since 2007. It functions as a method for hard mounting accessories to a negative space mounting point. When compared to MOE, M-LOK features a larger slot, squared sides, and adds the following feature set:
– Direct mount capability
– Cammed T-nut
– Optimized for metal and polymer manufacturing
– Recoil/impact mitigation lugs
– Intermediate spacing option
– Multi-directional mounting
– Backwards MOE compatibility
M-LOK is easy to manufacture, works in polymer and metal equally well, is incredibly strong, and requires no back side of mounting surface access.
Spuhr Long Range Sight Mount
Wednesday, June 18th, 2014This is a prototype sight mount from Spuhr AB designed to accommodate Aimpoints and other red dot sights for the purpose of long range shooting. The mount is fully ambidextrous, with knobs on either side to adjust the range settings from 300m up to 1000m. It also features an integrated 3x mount for magnification devices or NVDs to insure it keeps the same angle as the forward optic. Stay tuned for more news on the long range mount as it becomes available.
