Federal Premium LE Tactical HST

Friday, June 25th, 2010

Today at the ATK Industry Day, SSD was privileged enough to witness a demonstration of Federal Premium LEâ€™s new Tactical HST round in .45 Auto. When fired into ballistic gel, which is designed to simulate human flesh, the round penetrated a full 12 inches (the photo was taken off angle), expanding to a max diameter of .96 inches at its resting point. The round is a two piece projectile with a copper jacket that folds completely out of the way during penetration, while the round’s petals open to full expansion. The ammo is available in 9mm, .40, .45, and .357 SIG, however the SIG round is too fast, and as a result doesn’t fully open during penetration. More information can be found at www.le.atk.com.

Advanced Glock Slide Package

Wednesday, June 23rd, 2010

While the addition of a red dot sight to a race gun has been in vogue for quite some time, the concept is beginning to catch on with carry guns. One Source Tactical recently began to offer a custom Glock slide package that is designed to accept the Trijicon Ruggedized Miniature Reflex (RMR) Sight. In this case they use the LED model in either 4 or 8 MOA.

Options are the name of the game with this slide. Not only do you have the option to send in your own slide for modification, you can purchase a new slide already milled to accept the RMR Sight. Additionally, you can choose a no iron sight option, or use suppressor sights or ghost ring versions. And finally, you can choose Unfinished, Black (flat or semi-gloss), Tan, or OD.

Additionally, they offer a new Lone Wolf barrel as an option in standard or threaded length as well as a Lone Wolf Recoil Spring.

The Throw Over holster from CSM Gear combines a holster with a bandoleer-style strap. This means, you just grab and go. Instantaneously, you have a side arm mounted on your chest or tucked out of the way under your arm. How simple can that be?

Badger Ordnance SNAP

Thursday, June 10th, 2010

The new SNAP (Scope, Night vision Adapter, Pocket) interface system from Badger Ordnance is designed to address several problems frequently faced by Military and Law Enforcement sniper/observers. It allows the user to attach a AN/PVS-14 night vision monocular behind a M151 (Leupold Mk IV 12-40x60mm) Spotting Scope.

The SNAP attaches the AN/PVS-14 to the spotting scope using a simple collet design, allowing the user to quickly attach and remove the night vision monocular without the use of any tools, and can easily be manipulated by feel in complete darkness. In addition to weight savings, compact size, and widespread use of the AN/PVS-14, another benefit to the SNAP system is the ability to mount a night vision system behind a magnified optic rather than in front of it. This allows for a crisper image at higher magnification than with most forward mounted systems. The SNAP weighs just 2.2 oz, is constructed of aerospace-grade aluminum alloy, and is hard coat Mil Spec anodize finished. Fully compatible with the Laser Interference Filter (LIF), the SNAP can also be used with the AN/PVS-7.
