Marz Tactical has been introducing a slew of new products since coming on the scene in 2010. Their Field Kit caught our eye. Designed for small arms maintenance, it gives you a clean, dry space to lay out your parts and rolls up to a compact size. The coolest feature of the Field Kit Are the two magnets sewn into the fabric designed to keep your individual parts where you put them. Additionally, it features two 9″ x 3″ zippered compartments with adjustable internal dividers. These pockets sit atop sleeve pockets that will carry a Bolt Carrier Group or segmented cleaning rods.

NBOW Range Day – Sig Sauer

Thursday, September 8th, 2011

20110908-104041.jpg

Sig Sauer recently introduced the M400 which features a gas impingement system carbine. Based on market needs for a reliable, less expensive alternative to the 516’s piston operating system. Both the 516 and M400 feature Sig Sauer’s ambidextrous lower receiver.

Here you can see the 516 paired with the Elite suppressor. They have measured less than 100 db with this can. An interesting feature of the 516, is that you can dial the gas down to the point that it can be fired without cycling the bolt, further reducing the audible signature by 2-3 db. Of course, the biggest downside to suppressed 5.56 is the lack of subsonic ammo.
