Mesa Tactical, designer and manufacturer of high-quality tactical accessories and equipment for law enforcement, military, and civilian shooters, has announced the availability of a new line of Reflex Sight Mounts for Beretta 1301 tactical shotguns. The reflex sight mounts are designed to co-witness with the shotgun factory ghost ring sights.

Mesa Tactical’s reflex sight mounts are CNC machined aluminum mounts for pistol-style reflex sights. These mounts feature a precision machined footprint for a Trijicon® RMR® reflex sight. These sight mounts are attached via drilled and tapped receiver holes.

Reflex sight mounts are also available with optional integrated SureShell carriers, available in a six-shell configuration only. Each reflex sight mount includes an innovative dual rubber friction retention system to retatin ammunition in place. SureShell carriers are offered in aluminum and/or injection molded-glass filled nylon yokes which are secured to lightweight aluminum backplates by brass threaded inserts. Mesa Tactical’s SureShell shotshell carriers are an industry standard and the preferred choice of most federal, state, and municipal law enforcement agencies due to their hard construction, fail-safe shell retention system, robust mounting method, and ease of installation.

“The Mesa Tactical SureShell® carriers with Trijicon RMR mounts were the surprise hit of

2023. But many customers expressed a desire to run reflex sights without a shell carrier. With this announcement we are making it easier for shotgun operators to run RMR footprint sights, in a streamlined, economical, and modular manner.” stated Mitch Barrie, President of Mesa Tactical.

Prices and availability

The Mesa Tactical Reflex Sight Mount for the Beretta 1301 tactical shotgun is available now and will be demonstrating samples at the 2024 SHOT Show in Las Vegas booth 20565. MSRP is $69.95.

Leupold & Stevens, provider of the world’s most rugged, lightweight, and clear sport optics, has announced the immediate launch of its brand-new Mark 4HD family of riflescopes.

No matter the use-case, the Mark 4HD’s optical clarity and lightweight design will get the job done at the range or in the field. The Mark 4HD series features a 4:1 zoom ratio and five magnification ranges, giving you an accurate and reliable option for close-quarter engagements, long-range dominance, and everything in between.

“The Mark 4HD family was designed to deliver incredible performance and versatility–there’s an answer in the line for every rifle, on every range,” said John Snodgrass, Tactical Product Line Manager for Leupold & Stevens, Inc. “While its features will allow it to immediately find a home on the rifle of even the most experienced professionals, we’re also excited that, right away, the Mark 4HD offers shooters across the board the opportunity to make the jump to premium performance optics.”

The five magnification ranges available include: 1-4.5×24, 2.5-10×42, 4.5-18×52, 6-24×52, and 8-32×56. The 1-4.5×24 and 2.5-10×42 models feature 30mm maintubes. All 1-4.5×24 models are Second Focal Plane, while the 2.5-10×42 model is available in First (FFP) or Second Focal Plane (SFP). The three higher magnification options have 34mm maintubes and are all FFP optics. MIL or MOA adjustments and reticles are available throughout the line.

Illuminated reticle options are available. It is push-button operated and features Leupold’s Motion Sensor Technology (MST) which will put the illumination to sleep after five minutes of inactivity, reactivating it as soon as the scope moves.

The entire Mark 4HD family features Leupold’s Professional-Grade Optical System, which delivers the light transmission, glare reduction, and resolution that professional guides and shooters demand. The push-button ZeroLock dial system eliminates accidental dial movement and allows a rapid return to zero. Select models feature a similar ZeroLock windage turret.

New with the Mark 4HD is the PR3-MIL reticle. Building upon Leupold’s popular PR2-MIL reticle, the PR3 provides a clutter-free image for fast, accurate precision aiming.

“Since we rolled it out, the PR2-MIL reticle has been winning competitions around the world,” Snodgrass said. “The PR3-MIL is based on direct feedback from those very same competitive shooters. It utilizes the .25-MIL increment foundation of the PR2’s vertical and horizontal stadia lines, while removing the ‘Christmas Tree’ portion in the lower field of view. It’s incredibly fast and incredibly clear.”

The Mark 4HD is waterproof, fogproof, shockproof, and guaranteed to perform for life. Like all Leupold riflescopes, it is proudly designed, machined, and assembled in the company’s Beaverton, Ore., factory.

The 7MM PRC is an efficient, capable, and balanced 7mm magnum. It quickly became a favorite for ELR (extreme long-range) shooters and hunters looking for extended range capabilities. The modern design of the 7mm PRC provides several advantages over existing cartridges. It was designed to have inherently accurate chamber geometry, an efficient case shape, and appropriate overall length. These attributes, coupled with a standard 1:8″ twist rate, mean the 7mm PRC is perfectly suited to utilize the 21st century, low drag bullets without seating them too deep into the case. This balanced design creates a platform that can efficiently use modern propellants that are temperature stable, produce great accuracy, all while maintaining moderate recoil and reasonable barrel life when compared to other, more overbore 7mm magnums on the market. The parent case for the 7mm PRC is the 375 Ruger. The case length has been shortened to 2.280″, but retains the same .532″ diameter, non-belted case, and the 30° shoulder that is found on all Precision Rifle Cartridges. For the target shooter, the 180 grain ELD Match and 190 grain A-Tip® will be hard to beat. For hunters, the 160 grain CX and 175 grain ELD-X provide terrific performance at close and extended range.

EOTECH, the world leader in Holographic Weapon Sights, is proud to announce the introduction of the Vudu X line of premium rifle scopes. The X Series rifle scopes are designed to meet the demands of the outdoor enthusiast. Whether it’s 3-gun, hunting, or recreational shooting, the Vudu X scopes can make that critical shot.

Starting from a solid piece of aircraft-grade aluminum and finished with the high-quality AR-coated glass, the Vudu X rifle scopes are ultra-tough and crystal clear. Introductory models feature a second focal plane optic design allowing for quick and accurate targeting at all magnification levels, and its illuminated reticle will let you take that shot during the difficult low-light hours of dawn and dusk.

“We developed the X series line of Vudu scopes to address the shooter that wants all of the accuracy, precision and durability of our legacy Vudu scopes, but with features and a price that better match their needs” said Mark Miller, Director of Product Management for EOTECH. “We have put in a lot of work in the designs of these scopes and as always, we ran them through the same excruciating testing that our other Vudu and holographic products go through. We are confident these will exceed expectations”.

The Vudu X rifle scopes are available in 1-6×24 and 2-12×40 models. Both offer 30mm tube diameter, illuminated reticles powered by a CR2032 battery, and a removable throw lever for quick transitions across the magnification range. Available in MOA adjustments, the DP1 reticle provides the ultra-popular duplex crosshair while the BD1 provides additional circular ballistic holds at 2MOA increments for longer distances. The turrets are capped to avoid any accidental adjustments and provide a simple zero reset feature making adjustments and return to zero fast and easy. Branded front and back flip-up scope caps are included to provide protection against the elements. Production and delivery are scheduled to begin in Q1 2024. MSRP starts at $799.

SK Customs, the Nation’s only series-driven, limited-edition manufacturer of custom firearms, has released an Early Italian Renaissance series in collaboration with Springfield Armory throughout 2024, marking a new era by launching Springfield’s very first engravers model 1911 stainless, chambered in 45 ACP. The series will kick off by featuring Michelangelo, and will be the first installment of a four-part collection of handguns inspired by the art and innovation of the early Italian Renaissance.

Each installment of the Early Italian Renaissance series will be a limited-edition firearm, with only 250 numbered units being released per firearm. The Michelangelo edition will feature some of his most influential work, showcasing David and depictions of the Sistine Chapel Ceiling and the “Madonna della Pietá.”

“The goal of the Early Italian Renaissance series is to symbolize the cultural rebirth of the 15th century and pay homage to the knowledge, art and humanism that sparked iconic paintings, sculptures and architecture during this era,” said Simon Khiabani, owner and founder of SK Customs. “The Michelangelo firearm strikingly introduces this series. The combination of the gold plating and the teal color conversion accents is spectacular, and we are able to pay homage to some of Michelangelo’s most iconic works.”

SK Customs uses proprietary color conversion engineering to create a teal color that is highly reflective and permanent. Michelangelo wears genuine imported Italian Olivewood grip panels engraved with Italy’s Fleur de Lis which are hand-painted to match the teal accents on the slide.

SK Customs applies a semi-polished finish on the frame and the slide flats and a high-polished finish on the barrel of the firearm. There is selective 24-karat gold plating on the artwork featured on this handgun and on select parts of the gun itself.

In addition to Michelangelo, SK Customs and Springfield Armory will also introduce Leonardo da Vinci, Andrea del Sarto, and Raphael. SK and Springfield draw inspiration for the design of the body of the gun from the popular Springfield Armory 1911 Garrison.

Gold Series

Also included in the Early Italian Renaissance Series is a collection of limited-edition engravers model 1911 pistols dubbed the “Gold Series.” This limited batch will consist of only 25 completed series sets with consecutive series numbers and matching edition numbers. These sets will also contain a matching limited-edition engraved 24-karat gold etched blades, numbered to match each set, by renowned knife maker Coltellerie Maserin. A custom wall or tabletop display case will also be made optional for those who want to display their “Gold Series” in an elegant manner.
