Lake Worth, FL (PRWEB) December 18, 2013 – UM Tactical, a Florida company has introduced a one-of-a-kind universal handgun scope mount for competition shooters, hunters and all handgun enthusiasts that would like to increase their shooting speed and accuracy. Amazingly, the UM-3 can be installed and uninstalled on most handguns in under a minute and requires no tools or gunsmithing to assemble. Once the sight rail is in place it will allow for the attachment of any sight system compatible with Picatinny rails. A bottom rail on the unit allows for the attachment of lights, lasers and another tactical product if necessary.
According to UM Tactical’s Managing Partner Janet Wilson, “There are many positive aspects to using optical sights on handguns. Tactical shooters can change their sighting systems to meet rapidly changing circumstances and conditions. Competitive shooters can gain advantages and rapidly modify sights to meet rule requirements for different events. Shooters with aging eyes can benefit greatly by having the aiming point and target on the same visual plane. This is a great help when eye focus and depth of field is limited due to age or eye injury.”
“Shooters wanting to measure handgun accuracy from the bench can benefit by adding a long eye relief pistol scope to refine sight picture and provide more precise bullet placement. Until now, mounting optics on most handguns was an expensive, custom proposition, requiring machining a special base, machining and modifying the firearm to accommodate the base, requiring a large commitment in time and money. The UM Tactical Universal Handgun Sight Mount gives all shooters the ability to take advantage of the benefits of optical sights on their handgun,” she added.
The handgun scope mount requires no modifications to the firearm, attaches rapidly without tools and is made out of the finest T6 Aluminum alloy. UM tactical provides a limited lifetime warranty on every Universal Handgun Sight Mount. Videos, photos, and ordering information are available at http://www.umtactical.com.
I agree it’s ugly, but it just might work. However, I’d like to point out that these guys seem to be going after the fringes. Their videos are of less than mainstream handguns and sights.
EAST ALTON, Ill. (Dec. 12, 2013) — With the growing number of ammunition choices at the retail counter confronting the influx of first-time gun owners, Winchester Ammunition has created the new W Train & Defend brand which provides a straightforward process when choosing training and personal defense rounds.
The W Train & Defend ammunition system is designed to provide threat-stopping power with less recoil to the shooter. The system pairs its range-ready Train rounds with technology-driven Defend rounds, both designed to limit the recoil felt by the shooter. This system provides a perfect solution for new shooters, especially women, who are interested in training to become proficient with their personal defense ammunition.
“The influx of new female shooters to the outdoor/shooting sports category is significant and we are committed to making their experiences positive when it comes to selecting the appropriate gear, which includes ammunition,” said Brett Flaugher, vice president of sales, marketing and strategy. “After an extensive amount of research, we believe this line of quality products will serve a community of new shooters and others who are excited to learn more about target shooting and personal defense, as well as responsible gun ownership.”
The Train rounds of the W Train & Defend system are identified with a prominent “T” on the package. Winchester developed these training loads not only with reduced recoil characteristics, but lead-free primers for improved indoor range acceptance. Packed in 50-count boxes, the Train offerings themselves are also distinguishable from their Defend counterparts with brass shell cases and full metal jacket bullets.
The system’s ballistically-matched Defend rounds are also easily identifiable on the shelf, featuring a prominent “D” in a 20-count package. The high performance rounds were developed for threat stopping power. Utilizing Winchester’s advanced bonding technology, the Defend ammunition features jacketed hollow point bullets and nickel-plated shellcases, making them easily distinguishable from the training ammunition.
The packaging for W Train & Defend ammunition includes relevant data such as bullet type and weight, the caliber and whether the rounds are for training or defense purpose, providing straightforward information in an easy-to-read format.
The W Train and Defend system includes the following offerings:
