Tuesday, June 12th, 2012

V&C Industries, LLC is a new Veteran owned small business in the Northern Virginia area. Not only is it run by an old friend and stand up guy, but V&C Industries is also the only certified Cerakote shop in Northern Virginia. At SHOT Show, he hooked up with Cerakote and attended their certification course in Oregon. He’s already doing a lot of business finishing weapons, accessories and knives. In fact, he’s even coating knives for Strider Knives and for Mick Strider’s custom work. Some of V&C’s handiwork was on display at the Blade Show.

V&C Industries is also an FFL holder and has done some custom work on Glocks, Carbines and 1911s. Check him out at www.vcindustriesllc.com.

US Tactical Supply is now offering ViperSkins, a stock upgrade for the Accuracy International Chassis System. In fact, they are the first and only pistol grip stock-sides designed expressly for the AICS.

Available to suit several different models of chassis, ViperSkins are not a stock but rather a skin that goes on over the chassis to enhance its performance. Additionally, they are available in right or left hand bolt configurations.

Polymer Magazines NOT Banned

Thursday, June 7th, 2012

In a classic, “What I meant to say was…” moment, Army spokesman Matt Bourke answered Military.com’s Matthew Cox’s questions about the TACOM message banning the use of polymer magazines. In a seeming reversal, Bourke explained that the TACOM Maintenance Information Message, published in its enirety here at SSD on May 11th, wasn’t direct in nature at all but rather informative.

So, game on. Use those commercial magazines at your own risk. Some are better than others.
