On race day, members of the military, wounded warriors, and runners from around the United States will begin their race near the Airborne Trooper Statue “Iron Mike” at the Airborne & Special Operations Museum. They will then pass through many scenic areas in the community before heading to Fort Bragg, where they run by the Iron Mike statue at the entrance to Fort Bragg.

SOTECH Recce Vest
Thursday, February 9th, 2017During our SHOT Show coverage we told you about SOTECH’s Recce Vest based on the item issued to the British SAS for decades and officially known as the Pack, Lightweight Combat. Now, their modernized version is available for order.
SOTECH presents a high ride vest that rides above gun belts / LBE Harnesses and over plate carriers.
The Recce Vest was designed as a lightweight vest with large pocket capacity to be folded up in your pocket or pack. While this is ideal for recce applications, it is also well suited for SERE, narcotics eradication, motor bike use, and numerous other uses.
This vest has some improvements over the UK models with flap or shock cord retention on the two smaller front pouches – you can engage the flap, or fold it away to use just the shock cord. We also added a cinchable storm hood to the back pack for retention. The vest is made of 500D Cordura for lightweight durability. Removable foam insert providing padding for optics and electronics sold separately.
Features:
• 5 Compartments (4 front pockets, 1 Rear pack)
• Lightweight design, small buckles, ¾ in webbing

GAOS – Long Ranger with Sights by Henry Arms
Thursday, February 9th, 2017I know it’s odd to see a lever-action rifle on SSD but the new Long Ranger with Sights by Henry Arms caught my because of the callers it’s offered in; .223, .243 and .308, making it an interesting choice for those who own plenty of AR family rifles but are looking for something different which uses their already existing ammunition supply. It’s a solid gun at 7 lbs.
These lever-action rifles rifles feature American Walnut stocks and 20″ barrels. However, unlike most lever-actions, they are fed from a steel-bodied detachable magazine which is flush-fit (5-round capacity in .223, 4-round in .243 and .308) with a steel floorplate and a blackened steel release button on the right side of the receiver.
This image from Henry Arms gives you a better view of the rear sight.
