SHOT Show – Standard Manufacturing

January 25th, 2015

DSC05392

Following in the footsteps of Kel-Tec and UTAS, Standard Manufacturing has developed their own bullpup pump action shotgun with dual magazine tubes, however unlike the former two shotguns which feature a single barrel that feeds from two tubes, the DP-12 features double barrels. Two shells are chambered with each pump, and the trigger must be pulled twice to fire both barrels. Each tube is capable of holding 7 2 3/4″ shells, for a total capacity of 14+2. The DP-12 is machined from a solid billet of aircraft grade 7075 aluminum, and it features a spring loaded recoil pad.

Maglula’s Range Benchloader is a heavy-duty industrial 30-round loader for most standard .223/5.56 magazines, including aluminum, polymer, and steel magazines. The Benchloader’s design allows users to quickly load up to 30-rounds through its single stroke loading action. Its open design allows for examination of rounds prior to loading, and the design reduces wear on feed lips, prolonging magazine life.

ORWM – Atlas 46

January 24th, 2015

The legend John Carver has applied years and years of tactical nylon production toward the manufacturing market. Ever since he’s lived in Montana, he’s been doing lots of DIY projects.

He makes a belt system with a variety of pouches that can be quickly swapped out.

The pouches themselves are also modular with a simple attachment system. The drill holster takes some design cues from pistol holsters including a shock cord to keep it secure. Additionally, the material extends down further because so many carry their holster with a bit installed which can cut the user or his clothing.

Think of the Stretch Alpha Sweater as a stretch puffy coat. It combines a 4-way woven Tweave shell with The height breathable Alpha insulation from Polartec along with Polartec lightweight Grid Power Dry lining.

Below is a component of Beyond’s upcoming Arctic subsystem. The Cache Arctic parka utilizes a Berry compliant synthetic down which is a hybrid PrimaLoft and natural down. The PrimaLoft helps draw moisture away from the down in order to keep you warm.
