American Kami always uses Sniper Comp to debut new models. This year it’s the dagger designs we recently showed you pictures of.
This is a graphic from American Kami which gives you the names of the various daggers. I know the trench knives are becoming very popular.
DJ had to burn the candle at both ends to get these ready for Bragg. Commercial versions will have a DLC coating over the CPM S35VN.
B&T Industries makes a variety of weapon accessories such as the Atlas bipod. One of their newest items is the Silo which is a Picatinny compatible pad that can be quickly mounted, adjusted and dimounted from a rail thanks to their Flushcup Stud. It works as a pin across the rail and the Silo slides easily into position.
Inspired by shooters strapping bean bags into their rifles for stability, the Silo can be placed where needed on the rail to give you a stable platform on rough terrain or against a barricade. Additionally, each side has a rubber section so it won’t move if held up against the side of a window or other fixture.
US Tactical Supply is way out front in looking for and stocking specialized items for military, police and civilian precision shooting. They had an very interesting item on their table of specialty equipment.
This is the Bradley cheek rest, made from Kydex. There’s really not a lot of explanation needed. It’s adjustable for comb and attaches to the stock via Velcro. Bradley offers models for multiple firearms in a wide variety of colors and patterns.
Every time I sit down with Wilcox Industries they have something new. This company is constantly innovating. This time, it’s the G24R mount and low-pro shroud. The R suffix is for ‘rail’ and as you can see, it’s set up to accept both ground and aviation goggle interfaces.
It incorprates all of the features you’d expect from a Wilcox mount:
Breakaway Release Lever
Tilt Adjustment
Lock Release Lever for Height of NVG
Fore/Aft Release Lever for proximity to eyes
NVG Release Lever
Flip Release
Wilcox Dovetail Shoe
Available in Black or Tan
Another thing I really like about this shroud is how close it fits to the helmet.
The part number for the G24R Mount and low-profile shroud with lanyard is 61300G19.
It’s always a pleasure to speak with Daniel Winkler. This ABS Master Bladesmith’s designs are used by some of America and her allies’ most elite forces. Daniel told me they had been installing a new water jet cutter at their facility in Boone, North Carolina so he hadn’t created any new blades since SHOT show. However, he did want to remind me that they are making training versions of all of their knives which are fashioned from nonmarking plastic.
Yesterday, I got a quick in and out to Fort Bragg to visit the USASOC Sniper Comp. One of the companies I visited with is an old favorite, Misty Mountain Threadworks. He’s always got something interesting going on and this year is no different. This is the Bud Bucket. It’s a large chalk bag meant for bouldering where multiple people will share the same bag. With Misty Mountain, you can customize many of their products like this one which features MultiCam and Brown panels. It gives you a good idea of what they are capable of.
The Bud Bucket features a large fleece lined compartment with a drawstring closure, rear stretch pockets for brushes, tape, and accessories, and a zippered pocket at the front for car keys, etc.

This is a press release from Hostile Intent Fabrications regarding the release of their latest morale patch, the Armed Christian. The full details can be read below:
HOSTILE INTENT FABRICATIONS: “ARMED CHRISTIAN”
With the attack this morning in Belgium, reminding ISIS that we in the U.S. are not soft targets, but a hardened and armed free nation, is more important than ever. In countries that they occupy ISIS has been busy marking homes and businesses owned by Christians with an Arabic letter -> ? (pronounced “noon”). This is done in both Syria and Iraq to denote those places that will either be taxed to live in the supposed Caliphate or killed in their rolling genocide. H.I.F. wanted to make a little something to let them know that trying that proposition here in the U.S. would be a wholly different and unpleasant experience. This embroidered patches has a hooked velcro back and measures 3.40″ x 2.90″. It’s time to remind the beasts that we refuse to be prey.
