GLOCK Gives Us a First Look at the G42

Saturday, January 4th, 2014

“It’s Built Because You Guys Wanted It…”

Every year, right around SHOT Show, GLOCK tempts us with the promise of a single stack 9mm handgun and every year we are disappointed. But Good God! This year, not only did they once again disappoint by offering up the model 42, a .380 pistol, but they also created this video to introduce it to the world. I love my GLOCKS but this is just too much.

CTT-Solutions Mag Cap Enhanced Base Pad

Friday, January 3rd, 2014

Mike Pannone developed the Mag Cap Enhanced Base Pad to help protect magazines. Regardless if civilian, military or LEO, it protects your magazine from dirt and damage without giving up capacity or reliability or materially changing the factory specifications of the magazine. For example, If you live in a ban state where your 30rd magazines are legally grandfathered, you can protect them with the MagCap. Or, if you are in a service that bans the use of all but G.I. magazines, the MagCap is an easy to install accessory that does not alter the magazine.

UM Tactical Introduces Revolutionary New UM-3 Handgun Scope Mount

Sunday, December 22nd, 2013

UM3

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.
