Silencerco Announces SuperiorSilence.com

Thursday, July 12th, 2012

Silencerco has just announced the launch of SuperiorSilence.com, where customers can currently shop for Silencerco, ‘Silencers Are Legal’, and SWR products. The site’s purpose is to allow dealers and customers to research Silencerco and SWR accessories to ensure the correct fit of pistons, thread adapters, and flash hiders. The site menu is organized by brand, so customers can easily determine what they need while a dealer locator helps customers to connect with a local dealer that carries Silencerco and SWR products.

In honor of Independence Day, ten percent of proceeds from sales made on SuperiorSilence.com through the month of July will benefit the veteran support network Gallant Few.

Haley Talks Holsters

Tuesday, July 10th, 2012

This video from Panteao Productions has been around for awhile but Travis Haley does a great job of explaining what a drop leg should and should not be.

This set up is a hybrid that uses the G-Code RTi mount. This system allows you to move the holster from mount to mount. In fact, several Kydex producers are beginning to incorporate the RTi system into their product line.

Newly Instituted Virginia Gun Laws

Monday, July 9th, 2012

The following bills passed in the Virginia General Assembly and signed into law by Governor Bob McDonnell went into effect on Sunday, July 1:

-Senate Bill 563 allows for the submission of an initial concealed handgun permit application via U.S. mail and also restricts the clerk and the circuit court from requesting or requiring any information from an applicant other than that which is allowed on the concealed handgun permit application.
-House Bill 22 establishes that no locality or entity may participate in a gun “buyback” program where individuals are given anything of value or money in exchange for surrendering a firearm to the locality, unless the governing body adheres to a strict procedure. Such procedure requires the governing body to first pass an ordinance authorizing the gun “buyback” and also requires that any locality holding gun “buybacks” must sell the firearms to a federally licensed firearms dealer “or be disposed of” in an appropriate manner if they cannot be sold.
-House Bill 940 and Senate Bill 323 repeal the prohibition on purchasing more than one handgun per month (gun rationing).
-House Bill 20 and Senate Bill 245 update the Emergency Powers statute by adding lawful carrying and transportation to the list of actions that cannot be prohibited during a declaration of emergency.
-House Bill 26 allows a court to waive a $25 dollar fine upon presentation of the permit to the court, if a person fails to display his concealed handgun permit when requested by a law enforcement officer.
-House Bill 375 strengthens the state firearms preemption law by prohibiting local governments from enacting or enforcing workplace rules that prevent an employee of that locality from storing a lawfully possessed firearm or ammunition in their locked personal motor vehicle.
-House Bill 754 and Senate Bill 67 removes the option for a locality to require an applicant for a concealed handgun permit to submit fingerprints with the initial application.

Daniel Defense Revamps Law Enforcement Packages

Tuesday, July 3rd, 2012

Daniel Defense has revamped their Law Enforcement Packages to reflect the needs of the law enforcement professional.
Beginning this month, Daniel Defense will equip its four LE Packages with gear widely approved by police departments and other law enforcement agencies. Each of the four configurations will include a Daniel Defense DDM4 rifle, sling, magazines and protective rifle case. The four packages are as follows: Patrol Rifle Package (PRP), Designated Marksman Package (DMP), Lightweight Package (LWP), and Special Services Package (SSP). “The configuration changes to the Daniel Defense Law Enforcement Packages are a direct result of user feedback, improving the usability of the firearms and pairing our DDM4 rifles with premium accessories such as the Aimpoint PRO and Leupold Mark 4”, says Jay Duncan, Vice President of Sales & Marketing at Daniel Defense.

The Daniel Defense Patrol Rifle Package has been assembled to provide officers the perfect general-purpose system. The package includes the signature Daniel Defense DDM4v1 with Cold Hammer Forged M4-profile barrel, the newly designed DDM4 Rail 12.0 FSP, Daniel Defense CNC-machined Front Site Base, and Daniel Defense Flash Suppressor. It comes accessorized with the Aimpoint Patrol Rifle Optic (PRO), fixed A1.5 rear site, (3) 30-round PMAGS and Vickers Combat Applications Sling.

The Designated Marksman Package (DMP) is a versatile, multi-purpose platform that can be used for close quarters applications as well as precision medium range target engagement. This arrangement includes the DDM4v7, equipped with an 18” Cold Hammer Forged, S2W barrel, Daniel Defense Flash Suppressor, 3.5-10x40mm Leupold Mark 4/LR/T rifle scope as a primary optic, and MAGPUL MBUS flip-up front and rear backup sights. It also includes (3) 30-round PMAGS and Vickers Combat Application Sling.

The Daniel Defense Lightweight Package (LWP) includes a DDM4v5 LW with a Cold Hammer Forged 16” Lightweight barrel, the newly designed DDM4 Rail™ 12.0 and mid-length gas system, as well as a Daniel Defense Flash Suppressor. The LWP also comes with an Aimpoint Patrol Rifle Optic (PRO), fixed front & rear sights, (3) 30-round PMAGS, and Vickers Combat Application Sling™.

The Daniel Defense Special Services Package (SSP) features Daniel Defenses’ factory short barrel rifle (SBR) kit they have assembled for use by SWAT, SSU, Gang, Warrant Service, under cover and other specialized enforcement units. The heart of this package is the Special Services Rifle with 11.5” Cold Hammer Forged government-profile barrel, DDM4 Rail 9.0, and Daniel Defense Flash Suppressor. The Aimpoint Patrol Rifle Optic (PRO) is included as well as Fixed Front & Rear Sites, (3) 30-round PMAGS and Vickers Combat Application Sling.

As with all of their products, Daniel Defense offers each of these law enforcement packages at a significant discount to all current, credentialed law enforcement professionals and comes with a limited lifetime warranty.
