AR-15 and SIG-556 URBAN-SENTRY Hybrid sling

Urban ERT Slings is a Veteran-owned business founded by a former Marine. They offer a line of hand-made single, two-point, and three-point slings for a wide range of weapon systems. Their URBAN-SENTRY Hybrid sling, for example, is a sling design capable of being configured as a single-point or two-point sling right out of the bag. It comes with an ACE-LP 1.25″ front Picatinny rail sling mount and rear sling attachment receiver plate; the system is 100% ambidextrous. When used in single point mode, users can utilize the Speed Loop Weapons Catch Adapter to secure the front of their weapon to their off hand hip or sling when in use.

An included cinch strap allows the user to quickly cinch their sling, which also features a breakway system to rapidly detach from the sling as needed. It also features a wide strap for comfort and a single row of PALS webbing sewn onto the strap for the weapon catch, although it can also be used for a variety of PALS-compatible accessories.

Urban-E.R.T. Slings are available in the following colors: Black, OD Green, Coyote Tan, MultiCam, ACU Digital, A-TACS AU, Marpat Woodland, and Marpat Desert. Made in the USA.

Velocity Systems – BOSS Rugby And Range Shorts Color Comparision

December 31st, 2014

Yesterday, I drove to the Velocity Systems factory to pick up samples of the new Range Shorts and the MultiCam BOSS Rugby. While we were there, I also happened to purchase the Tan BOSS and Range Shorts for one of my kids.

Due to popular demand, we took a photo for a color comparison between the Earth Tan BOSS Rugby and Tan Range Shorts. As you can see, the BOSS Rugby is closer to the Sand color for current issue Army T-shirts, while the range shorts are closer to a traditional Khaki. This Tan turned out great and I really like the color.

The BOSS Rugby has long been my go-to range shirt and these new shorts are awesome. I had a pair of an earlier version and they’ve really dialed the design in. Designed with a customer from the ground up for range use, the pocket configuration is well laid out.

SJK Hunting Introduces New Products For 2015 Line

December 31st, 2014

SJK Hunting – After successful first season we have a new year in our sights

Partnering with camouflage supplier Kryptek, SJK Hunting is creating and designing hunt-specific packs, blinds and treestand cloaks

BOULDER, COLO. (For Immediate Release) – Big game hunters are raving about the new SJK packs! Slumberjack, now referred to as SJK, has sighted in on the hunting market and is continuing to emerge as a durable, quality driven hunting pack brand. Relaunched in the spring of 2014, they now offer a complete line of Kryptek camouflage patterned packs and tree stand bags specifically designed to give hunters an edge on any hunt.

The fall 2015 SJK hunting line introduces a new light weight blind, a new Kryptek Mandrake camo, and updates to the Thermal Cloak. These new hunting products combine lightweight materials, durable construction, cutting edge Kryptek camouflage, and an extensive amount of input from our professional hunting partners, to create the most advanced hunting equipment available.

“Following the successful launch of our tactical hunting line, we are developing and introducing a greater range of new products to fit the emerging tactical hunter,” said Russell Rowell VP of SJK Hunting. “The hunting community is rapidly evolving and SJK will continue to develop innovative, cutting edge hunting equipment to meet and lead this trend.”

The SJK Hunting line now includes 9 packs, ranging in size from the Bounty 4500, a fully-featured mountain hunting pack to the Spoor and Strider which are designed for everyday use. The all new Strider ($129) is a 26-liter pack featuring four exterior pockets which allow you to organize for a day at the treestand or for your day to day activities. The pack also features a new compression carry system, which allows users to carry items in many different configurations, and a built-in rifle shooting platform to help stabilize the shot. The pack line will now be available in Kryptek Mandrake camo, to appeal to the hunters in various vegetation’s and seasons.

This year we are introducing the new patented SJK Arctic Cloak, a warmer version of the popular Thermal Cloak tree stand bag, in Kryptek Highlander ($259) and in Blaze Orange. The cloak guarantees all-day warmth and comfort for those cold, wet, stoic hours on the hunt. The tactical hood’s wide peripheral shape allows for better viewing and hearing so you can see and hear approaching game. Quiet, weather-ready fabrics repel wind, rain, and snow while 300g of synthetic insulation keeps you warm all day. The foot of the bag is long enough to cover boots yet open, allowing you to feel the edges of your tree stand to ensure proper footing. Large, self-sealing (via magnets) arm ports allow you to silently move into bow or rifle shooting position.
