Wallace, ID – Every year about this time you can expect to see something new drop from industry veteran Grey Ghost Precision, and 2020 is no exception! Looking back on 2019 we saw more aftermarket support for the GLOCK® platform including new slides for the G17, G19 and G26 as well as an added FDE color option for the Combat Pistol and CP frames. They also kicked open the door on the P320 market with their GGP320 slides for the SIG® P320/M17/M18 platforms that gave P320 users more options for slide serrations, finish/color and red dot mounting right out of the box. We can all agree that it’s been the golden age for custom pistol builders, and this year is no different!
So, what’s in store from GGP in Q1 2020? Starting with their SIG® aftermarket line, Grey Ghost Precision is giving P365 fans their very own GGP slides, as well as match-grade barrels! Two brand-new GGP365 slides have been unveiled, and they bring something big to the table in terms of options for P365 owners. Just like their bigger bros GGP320 slides, the GGP365 slides are available in Black or Grey DLC (diamond-like coating) finish, with a Flat Dark Earth Cerakote option to closer match the P365 models with FDE colored frames. The Version 1 slide boasts diagonal serrations that are deeper and more aggressive than OEM slide serrations, while the Version 2 slide has a bit more sophistication. The front and rear of the slide feature recessed areas with fine ribs of serrations that give you plenty of grip, and looks classy as hell. Both of these GGP365 slides come milled precisely for the Shield RMS-C and SIG RomeoZERO micro optics, with an attractive G10 cover plate that fills the footprint if you choose not to run an optic. The MSRP of both versions of the GGP365 slide are $418.95.
GGP is also releasing pistol barrels for the P365 as well as the P320 Compact and Full-Size models. Each of these barrels are black nitride coated and are SAAMI spec match-grade. Threaded P320 barrels feature ½ x 28” threads for those who want to use muzzle brakes, compensators or suppressors. Speaking of suppressors, Grey Ghost Precision specifically optimized their GGP320 barrels for improved function when suppressing P320 pistols. The MSRP of the GGP320 barrels are $184.99 for non-threaded barrels, $194.99 for threaded models.
GLOCK® fans are getting some love, as GGP is also releasing threaded and non-threaded G26 barrels, as well as Gen 5 barrels for G17 and G19 pistols. You read that right, Gen 5 barrels. As you may know, 5th generation GLOCK® slides feature quite a few changes that removed compatibility with several Gen 1-4 parts, including the slides themselves. These new GGP17/19 Gen 5 barrels are $179.99 for non-threaded barrels, $189.99 for threaded models (which also include an O-ring and a thread protector).
That leads us to the next GGP release for the new year… GGP-19 and GGP-17 Gen 5 slides! Finally, you will be able to upgrade your OEM Gen 5 pistol with a GGP aftermarket slide and take advantage of the accuracy-improving critical tolerances that Grey Ghost has tightened in all their slides. Additionally, these new Gen 5 slides also benefit from GGP’s hybrid optic compatibility with the Trijicon® RMR and Leupold® DeltaPoint Pro red dot optics using the supplied low-profile shim plates and specialty screws that come in every box. Two popular optic footprints, and all without the need for bulky adapter plates that would only raise the optic above the bore axis, and 4 different but equally functional serration patterns to choose from. The MSRP of GGP17/19 Gen 5 GLOCK® slides are $449.99 for Versions 1 and 3, and $418.95 for Versions 2 and 4.
In the immortal words of Billy Mays: “BUT WAIT, THERE’S MORE!” Grey Ghost Precision has one more bomb to drop. They have developed their own signature aftermarket trigger for GLOCK® pistols. This drop-in trigger, which GGP calls the Combat Trigger, has a flat faced shoe with a minimal toe. “We designed this trigger from the ground up” said GGP Head Engineer Jason Fancher. “Using 3D software, we were able to rapid prototype several shoe designs using 3D printing technology. After experimenting with different geometry, we arrived at a design that felt perfect to the shooter. The flat face is specifically designed to give the shooter a repeatable straight trigger pull every time, with the precise reset that we all as shooters prefer in our carry guns.” The GGP Combat Trigger includes an OEM trigger bar to retain the safe function in your GGP Combat Pistol or your GLOCK®, making it ideal for Concealed Carry, Military and Law Enforcement use. The MSRP of the GGP Combat Trigger is $99.99, and it is available in four anodize color combinations: all black, all grey, black trigger/grey/safety and grey trigger/black safety. All new GGP Combat Pistols come with the all black GGP Combat Trigger installed, with no change to its existing MRSP of $1,499.

Tactical Night Vision Company (TNVC) is excited to introduce the new TNVC ANVS to BNVD Cable Adaptor at the 2020 NSSF SHOT Show Booth #6502. The TNVC ANVS to BNVD Cable Adapter (TNVC-ABCA) allows end users to power night vision devices equipped with a BNVS-style external power connection port such as the L3Harris BNVD-family (AN/PVS-31A, BNVD-1531) or GPNVG using ANVS remote battery packs (LPBP) or other power supplies using the Legacy LEMO connector.
As issued, Legacy ANVS power supplies are not compatible with the BNVS-style connection used on many next generation night vision devices, frustrating users with large numbers of Legacy power supplies already in inventory that cannot be used with their night vision devices. Moreover, the cost of OEM BNVS-style power supplies is often prohibitive if power supplies or cables are lost or damaged or spares are needed.
While many night vision devices have onboard battery capabilities, many end users prefer the extended battery life offered by using external power supplies with their night vision devices, especially in colder weather, while devices such as the GPNVG-18 have no onboard battery capabilities. Furthermore, moving the power supply to the back of the helmet in an external power supply can help to counterweight night vision devices mounted on the front of the helmet, improving user comfort and reducing neck strain and fatigue.
The TNVC-ABCA is also compatible with ruggedized external battery packs such as the LPBP-Ground Optimized (also available from TNVC), which allow end user to use either AA or CR123A batteries, giving them greater flexibility for powering their devices with readily available power cells, and at a much lower cost than the OEM external power supplies.
The TNVC-ABCA was developed in partnership with the OE manufacturer of the BNVS power connector, and features a durable, shielded cable and a rubberized BNVS connector housing and uses authentic OEM connectors rather than aftermarket components. The TNVC-ABCA is available in both 6” and 8” cable lengths to accommodate a wide range of helmet mounting and cable routing configurations (custom cable lengths available via special order).
The TNVC ANVS to BNVS Cable Adapter will retail for $224.95, or with the AB Night Vision LPBP-GO and TNVC Mohawk MK 2 Gen. 2 counterweight/battery pack pouch system for $549.95. Available late-Q1 2020.
Dealer and government/agency pricing available. For all product inquiries or retail or dealer sales, please contact sales@tnvc.com. For military, agency, or government sales, please contact govsales@tnvc.com
Orofino, ID, U.S. – (January 16, 2020) Today, Nightforce Optics released a new product, the Wedge Prism. This new product was created with extreme long range (ELR) shooters in mind. Many of these shooters find that riflescopes lack the necessary elevation travel. The Wedge Prism is a clip-on accessory that mounts to a forward or continuous MIL-STD 1913 Picatinny rail to increase the effective elevation travel. It optically shifts the incoming image to the riflescope by a precise elevation value, which directly adds to the available elevation travel within any riflescope.
“As shooters continue to push the boundaries of what is possible for target distances, riflescopes are limited in overall adjustment for providing accurate fire,” said Alan Stilwell, Commercial Sales Manager. “Our Wedge Prism works with any riflescope to provide additional aiming offset, allowing successful and repeatable target engagements beyond what a riflescope could do with internal adjustment alone.”
The Wedge Prism provides a repeatable offset of the optical image, yet minimizes the loss of image quality, resolution and clarity. Available as a 50 MOA/14.5 MRAD or 100 MOA/29.1 MRAD variant, the shooter can choose an individual unit or combine models to tailor the amount of additional offset needed to reach their target. The quick-detach lever allows for rapid and repeatable installation and removal in the field, and by attaching to a rail prevents additional stresses on the riflescope.
“With this simple tool, a shooter can easily do the math to configure their rifle to hit their target,” Stilwell added. “For example, if my .416 Barrett requires 124 MOA of drop at 3,000 yards, but my scope will only dial up 90 MOA from zero, adding a 50 MOA Wedge Prism offsets the required dialing and only needs to be dialed up 74 MOA to reach the target and use the center aiming point of the reticle. This same principle works for .22 LRs past 300 yards, subsonic .300 Blackouts at 400 yards or when pushing any other cartridge beyond their normal limits.”
The Wedge Prism is available at $990 USD MSRP, and includes a MOLLE padded carrying case, flip-up lens cap and lens cleaning cloth. The first units will be available in February 2020. For more information on Nightforce Optics and the Wedge Prism, please visit www.nightforceoptics.com.
