AGULUK is a load-carrying system developed by avid outdoorsman Cody Gustin, currently up for funding on Kickstarter. It’s designed to replace a traditional backpack, removing all carrying capacity from the back, and instead distributing the weight on the legs and hips. In appearance, AGULUK looks a bit like a combination of large carry pouches/miniature packs hanging from a climbing belt.
The AGULUK series comes in two sizes: R-Pack and H-Pack. The R-Pack, or Hiking Pack, holds up to 2000 cu in of gear, 1000 cu in each side. The H-Pack, Hunting Pack, holds 1500 cu in per side, for a total of 3000 cu. As you can see from the animation above, you can fit a solid amount of gear in an H-Pack.
AGULUK will be available in a variety of solid colors and camouflages, including Kryptek patterns, depending on the model.

M Grills’ C4 Portable Grill is made of 12 gauge steel, with a 304 stainless steel handle, and is intentionally designed to look like an ammo box. Its small form factor makes it great to bring along when outdoors; camping, fishing, etc.
Aside from functioning as a grill, the C4 can also be used just as a fire pit, or even as a small storage case, depending on the user’s needs.
The C4 Portable Grill is available in two colors: Black and Forest Green.

(CINCINNATI, OH) – Faxon Firearms, incessant innovators in the firearms industry, is pleased to announce the release of Faxon’s latest series of barrels – the Match Series. The new Match Series of barrels takes Faxon’s renowned performance and value up a notch.
All Match Series barrels start as 416-R gun-barrel-quality stainless steel. Manufactured 100% in-house, the Match Series features 5R rifling for increased velocity, decreased bullet deformation, and ease of cleaning. All barrels are fully stress relieved and finally salt bath nitride coated inside and out for corrosion resistance and longevity. All Match Series barrels further feature NP3 coated extensions. The nickel-Teflon coating smooths feed ramps and its self-lubricating properties increase reliability.
The Match Series will be available across all calibers that Faxon manufactures including 300 BLK, .308 Winchester, 6.5 Creedmoor, 6.5 Grendel, and newly released .223 Wylde. All calibers feature 1/8” twist except for .308 in 1/10”. Available contours will include Faxon’s famed pencil profile, Gunner, heavy fluted, and Flame fluted barrels. Lengths will vary by caliber.
“We are thrilled to formally include .223 Wylde on our production barrels.” stated Nathanial Schueth, Director of Sales & Product Management. “The .223 Wylde chamber takes advantage of the Match Series’ 5R rifling, 416-R Stainless Steel, and NP3 extension to enhance accuracy while staying compatible with both .223 Remington and 5.56 NATO charged loads.”
Faxon’s various stainless-steel barrels will all be upgraded to the Match Series of barrels over the next few months. Retail pricing for the barrels starts at $179 up to $409, depending on length, caliber, and profile. Launch profiles include 16” Gunner, 18” & 20” Heavy Fluted, and 20” Flame Fluted, all in .223 Wylde.
Additional information can be found at the Match Series dedicated website at www.faxonmatchseries.com.
I did email a few weeks ago. Can you give me a price for a holster for SIG with silencer as in your pics.
I can post a cardboard “model” with dimensions.
I live in France but you can post to the UK if you prefer. I can pay you by Card in $US or PayPal or bank transfer.
I would prefer in black or dark blue but green would be OK.
I do hold all licences etc. for the weapon and I can provide copies by email (they are in French though).
Cheers,
T
We’re sorry T but we can’t support your request. Quite simply, we don’t sell anything, at all.
In addition to T’s email, we get several irate customer emails and requests for quotes from various governments and the companies which sell to them each day. Again, we don’t sell anything.
Consequently, we can’t provide you an updated shipping date, a quote, or a refund. On the other hand, we can show you the latest gear on a daily basis. How you buy it will have to be between you and someone else though. Might we suggest one of advertisers?
