May 26th, 2017

KD3

The next installment of the Team MultiCam Video Series highlights Naval Special Operations veteran Kyle Defoor. Words like dedication, discipline, precision and drive personify Kyle. He honored our country post 9/11 as a sniper on SEAL Team 8. Since retiring, Kyle created Defoor Proformance Shooting where he teaches various shooting techniques to military, law enforcement and civilians. He is truly thankful for what the Navy gave him.

To give back, he has been raising money through his GoFundMe page for the Navy SEAL Foundation who provides immediate and ongoing support and assistance to the Naval Special Warfare community and their families. Please help Kyle raise as much money as possible for the NSF by spreading the word and donating today. Thank you.

Desert Tan Surefeed Magazines Now Available

May 26th, 2017

New Britain, CT –SureFeed AR-15 magazines by Okay Industries are now available in Desert Tan. Introduced to meet market demand, these magazines are manufactured to the same exacting standards as all Okay Industries magazines which meet or exceed U.S. Military Specifications. Popular with U.S. soldiers, Government Agencies and sought after by civilian shooters alike, OKAY magazines are renowned for reliable feeding and flawless performance in any Mil-Spec AR-15 compatible platform. Since co-developing the original 30 round M16 magazine with the U.S. Military in 1973, OKAY magazines have earned a reputation as the best USGI versions available.

Like all SureFeed® USGI type magazines, the new Desert Tan 20 and 30 round magazines are 100% made in the U.S.A. with components that meet or exceed demanding Mil-Spec requirements. The magazine bodies and floor plates are made from lightweight aluminum that is heat treated and hard coat anodized for strength and durability. A proprietary Desert Tan coating is applied to the magazine body that has a nano-PTFE additive for increased lubricity, as well as a boron additive for durability which exponentially improves performance and reliability.

A four way anti tilt self-lubricating non-hygroscopic resin follower in the 30 round magazines and a high performance Mil-Spec stainless steel spring keep rounds properly aligned and tensioned for flawless performance.
Reliability is the most important quality for any magazine. Okay Industries achieves this reliability through extensive quality controls. Every magazine goes through an exhaustive battery of inspections and tests before being shipped. Some of the areas tested include weld integrity verification, feed lip tolerance and material quality. This all leads up to the final proprietary qualification where each magazine is tested for fit and function. This proprietary inspection and testing process and the resulting superior quality of SureFeed® magazines is why OKAY has been a supplier to the U.S. Government since 1973.

Desert Tan SureFeed® magazine are now available in the 30 round capacity with an MSRP of $18.95-$19.95. For more information visit www.surefeedmagazines.com or the Facebook page at www.facebook.com/surefeedmagazines

Consider Yourself Warned

May 26th, 2017

I’m seeing a negative pattern of behavior developing. It’s best to just address it, so corrections can be made.

You aren’t a comedian
No one cares that the price is too high for you
No one cares you can’t use it, whatever it is
No one cares about someone else’s beef
It’s great that a manufacturer doesn’t have the same political views as you, but this isn’t a political site
This isn’t Facebook or some online forum where you can just wild out
Don’t say something to someone else, you wouldn’t say face-to-face

Aside from the small arms renaissance post, few comments have been additive as of late. If your comments indicate that you can’t accept the guidelines set out above, they most likely won’t make the cut.
