ALPS Mountaineering Introduces Pinnacle Quilt Just in Time for Camping Season

From ALPS Mountaineering

ALPS Mountaineering, manufacturer of performance-driven technical support gear for wilderness adventures, exploration, and family camping, has announced the new Pinnacle Quilt for the 2021 camping season.

An increasing number of base campers and backpackers are discovering the comfort and versatility of quilts for use as their primary sleeping system, and the new Pinnacle Quilt from ALPS Mountaineering checks all the boxes for anyone desiring a premium night’s sleep in the backcountry.

Based on a 20D 380T nylon shell and efficient 600 Fill Power hydrophobic down fill, the Pinnacle Quilt is engineered to more comfortably accommodate diverse sleeping positions while ensuring optimal heat retention and ventilation options.

An enclosed foot box keeps feet warm by eliminating drafts in this critical area. The quilt’s tapered profile guarantees legs and hips also stay warm while the expanded torso and shoulder area offers plenty of room side-sleeping and multiple arm positions. For colder temperatures, an insulated chest baffle and drawstring top traps warm air inside yet the quilt can easily be ventilated when cooler sleeping is required.

Included with the Pinnacle Quilt is an adjustable retention system. This allows the quilt to be secured to a sleeping pad, preventing accidental uncovering when turning over or slipping off the pad when sleeping on uneven ground.

Available in Charcoal/Red and rated for 35° F, the Pinnacle Quilt measures 32 inches across the top and 75 inches long with a 12 x 12-inch footbox. Total weight is 1 lb., 8 oz. and a 6.5 x 15-inch carry bag is included.

The Pinnacle Quilt is available for purchase at alpsmountaineering.com and retail locations throughout the U.S. For more information on ALPS Mountaineering, visit alpsmountaineering.com and alpsbrands.com

Galco KingTuk Cloud IWB

Galco KingTuk Cloud IWB

From Galco

Galco’s new KingTuk Cloud combines extremely comfortable carry with superior concealment.

The KingTuk Cloud’s outstanding comfort level comes from its innovative backing plate, composed of a ballistic nylon front over a closed cell foam body. The back portion of the plate that rides against the wearer is lined with Galco’s Comfort Cloth™, an Adaptive Performance Mesh™ that provides padding and moisture wicking. A rigid Kydex holster pocket provides fast draw and easy holstering while facilitating a full firing grip.

Worn inside the waistband, the KingTuk Cloud includes Galco’s patent-pending, tuckable polymer UniClips for excellent concealment, stability and easy on-off capability. The clips can be moved up or down in the corresponding holes in the backing plate, enabling the user to set the carry height and angle to suit their unique preferences.


Bond Arms PT2A Handgun

Bond Arms PT2A Handgun

From Bond Arms

Bond Arms designed the “Protect the 2nd Amendment” handgun as a testament to what they believe – every citizen has the right to bear arms. The Bill of Rights enshrined this constitutional right in 1791. Today, however, the 2nd Amendment is under attack! Bond Arms joins the fight to protect the 2A with a distinctive model—the PT2A.

The bold and beautiful PT2A handgun packs a double punch, protecting American gun owners in two ways. First, Bond Arms donates a portion of each PT2A’s sale to organizations fighting for gun owners’ second amendment rights. Secondly, like all Bond Arms’ handguns, Americans can trust their lives to the compact, powerful PT2A for personal protection.

The PT2A inherits the premium features found on all Bond Arms, including stainless-steel barrels and frame, cross-bolt safety, retracting firing pins, spring-loaded cam-lock lever and rebounding hammer – essential elements in a modern derringer.

The Protect the 2nd Amendment has a 4.25″ long barrel providing tighter shot patterns, higher velocities and even more manageable recoil than shorter barrels. The PT2A is customizable, accepting all Bond Arms’ standard interchangeable barrels from 2.5 inches to 6 inches long.

Buying a PT2A leaves no doubt as to where you stand on the 2nd Amendment. Engraved on the flats of the octagonal handgun barrels’ right side are the words “The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed”; on its left side, “In God We Trust” – both statements Bond Arms’ believes and lives by each day. The model’s name, PT2A, is laser etched on the frame’s side and directly below the fixed rear sight. An ornate, extended rosewood grip, laser engraved with the stars and stripes overlaid with “2nd A” and finished in high gloss, adds character to this unique derringer.

Bond Arms chambers the PT2A in .38SPL/.357MAG or .45LC/.410 Bore. Any of these cartridges are solid choices for self-defense, with the .410 bore option capable of shooting the powerful 3-inch .410 shells stoked with either birdshot or buckshot. The gun’s automatic spent casing extractors expedite reloads.

Carry your pistol in style with its included BAD premium leather driving holster. White stitching accents this custom wet-molded holster, while an embossed “2nd A” mark proudly touts the constitutional right to bear arms.

PT2A Features:

  • Stainless steel barrels, trigger guard and frame
  • Patented rebounding hammer
  • Retracting firing pins
  • Automatic spent casing extractor
  • Cross-bolt safety
  • Spring-loaded, cammed locking lever
  • Compatible with all standard Bond Arms barrels
  • BAD premium leather driving holster
  • MSRP $887

PT2A Specifications:

  • Barrel: 4.25-inches
  • Overall Length: 6.25-inches
  • Weight: 23.5 Ounces
  • Barrel and Frame material: Stainless Steel
  • Grip Size: Extended
  • Grip Material: Rosewood
  • Sights: Front blade, fixed rear
  • Cartridge: 357Mag/.38Spl or .45LC/.410 bore

Galco Quick Slide Belt Holster

Galco Quick Slide Belt Holster

From Galco

Galco combined hybrid holster construction with quick on-off belt loops to create the Quick Slide. The flexible, lined steerhide backplate complements the rigid Kydex holster pocket, providing not only the comfort gun carriers want, but the performance and durability they expect from Galco.

The Quick Slide’s near-neutral cant and open top make drawing and holstering fast and simple, while a passive retention device located at the trigger guard provides exceptional security. Mounting to the belt via two widely spaced snap loops, the Quick Slide pulls in tight to the body to provide excellent concealment without unnecessary bulk. Combine these features with its silhouetted design and it’s easy to see that Quick Slide is the go-to holster for just about any variation of firearm it carries.

Available in black for over 60 different pistols.


Leupold Adds Three New Styles for Performance Eyewear Line

Leupold Adds Three New Styles for Performance Eyewear Line

From Leupold

Leupold & Stevens, provider of the world’s most rugged, lightweight, and clear sport optics, is pleased to announce the addition of three new styles to its Performance Eyewear line–the Payload, Refuge, and Cheyenne.

Each of the new styles is available in multiple lens and frame combinations, adding 11 total new sets of eyewear to Leupold’s line. Like the rest of the Performance Eyewear line, the Payload, Refuge and Cheyenne are all are made from lightweight, ballistic-rated materials and ship with scratch-resistant polarized lenses as rugged and clear as Leupold’s legendary sporting optics.

“Our products outperform the competition under the harshest conditions, without fail–and the Performance Eyewear line has been no different,” said Zach Bird, Product Line Manager for Leupold & Stevens, Inc. “The Payload, Refuge, and Cheyenne designs ensure that hunters, anglers, and outdoorsmen and women everywhere have a set of Leupold Performance Eyewear that meet their needs and personal style.”

The Payload was designed for anglers and outdoorsmen who live life on the water. Featuring Lens Ventilation, the Payload maintains a clear image while eliminating glare, helping you see past the water’s surface to what lies beneath. Combine that with wrap-around, ANSI Z87.1+ certified frames and ballistic-rated lenses, and you’ve got unmatched protection and clarity that every outdoor athlete demands.

Built for action and adventure, the Refuge has all the rugged features of its bigger brother, the Becnara, but in a sleek new style. The slightly smaller frame makes the Refuge as fashionable as it is functional. Polarized and incredibly clear; they are guaranteed to look great around town and always outperform on the trail.

The Cheyenne features a low-profile frame that makes it the perfect option for hunters and shooters with smaller faces. Its full wrap design offers complete protection from the elements, while maintaining maximum visibility and air flow. If you want eyewear that looks and feels great without sacrificing safety, the Cheyenne is the pair for you.

All three new styles share numerous top-of-the-line features like In-Fused polarized lenses, which eliminate glare and keep your eyes fresh whether you’re on the water or in the field. Leupold’s Guard-ion hydrophobic coating sheds dirt, water, and fingerprints for a clear, crisp image, while Diamondcoat-hardened lenses reduce surface scratches. A no-slip bridge design provides all day comfort with soft-touch rubber bridge pads. Daylight Max technology, meanwhile, provides complete UV protection for optimal performance in any environment.

All Leupold Performance Eyewear frames are designed, machined, and assembled in the USA. For more information on Leupold products, please visit us at Leupold.com.

Springfield Armory Releases 15-Round Hellcat Magazine

Springfield Armory Releases 15-Round Hellcat Magazine

From Springfield Armory

Springfield Armory has taken its Hellcat pistol — the smallest, highest capacity micro-compact 9mm handgun in the world — and increased its already impressive capacity with the new 15-round Hellcat magazine. The result is a micro-sized 9mm pistol with an astounding 15+1 capacity comparable to compact and duty-sized pistols, yet in a package that is smaller than similarly configured, lower-capacity competitors.

The new magazine, which is only slightly longer than the 13-round extended version, is currently available directly from Springfield Armory with an MSRP of $39.95 and will soon be available from Springfield retailers as well. It is offered in both black and Desert FDE.

The Hellcat is available in both standard and OSP™ (Optical Sight Pistol) versions, with the latter featuring slides cut to accept the smallest micro red dot sights on the market. The micro 9mm ships with a patented 11-round magazine as well as an extended 13-round magazine, and this newest magazine will allow users to have a full 15+1 rounds of 9mm ammo ready to go.

“This magazine offers Hellcat owners the ability to increase the total capacity of their pistol by two rounds or to carry a larger 15-round mag as a back-up,” says Steve Kramer, Vice President of Marketing for Springfield Armory. “This increased capacity puts the Hellcat platform even further beyond its competitors and means users can carry with even greater confidence.”

The Hellcat has received numerous awards since its release in 2019, including the 2020 Handgun of the Year Award from the National Rifle Association’s American Rifleman, the Guns & Ammo 2020 Handgun of the Year Award, Ballistic magazine’s Ballistics’ Best 2020 Reader’s Choice Award for Best Compact Handgun, the NTOA MTR Gold Award, and more.

And if you haven’t heard about the Hellcat, here’s more detail.

Proof Research Tundra Rifle

Proof Research Tundra Rifle

From Proof Research

PROOF Research’s latest model rifle to hit the market is the Tundra. Combining the adjustability and performance of a tactical rifle, with a design that meets the demands of high-country hunting, the Tundra rifle is an exceptional long-range, lightweight hunting rifle.

The Tundra bolt-action rifle is the next generation of PROOF Research’s popular hunting rifle, the Terminus. With a starting weight of only 7 lbs. 3 oz., the Tundra, and its carbon-fiber stock and a Sendero contour carbon fiber barrel, keep weight to a minimum without sacrificing any of Proof Research’s accurate sub 1/2 MOA accuracy.

“The design of a monte carlo stock is timeless and a long running staple for hunting rifles. We took this timeless design to the next level by adding adjustability. At 7lbs., the Tundra is an already incredible hunting platform, before the addition of any optics or muzzle devices,” Kelly Streiff, vice president of sales & marketing for Proof Research, said. “The last thing a hunter needs to worry about is the weight of their rifle system. There are many lightweight rifles out there, but many come sacrificing accuracy for weight. The Tundra embodies everything that we stand for, which is to develop a lightweight rifle that maintains and delivers extreme long-range accuracy.”

The Tundra’s lightweight, ergonomic carbon-fiber stock features an adjustable Monte Carlo-style adjustable cheek piece for a customized fit. The BDL-style magazine ensures perfect cartridge seating every time and a smooth feed. The TriggerTech trigger’s crisp break and very short reset allow the user to make follow-up shots with greater precision and accuracy. Machined to tighter tolerances, the Defiance Ruckus bolt-action has a guaranteed headspace of +/-.001” making it one of the most accurate actions for long-range hunting. Completing the ultimate long-range hunting Tundra rifle is PROOF Research’s own Sendero contour carbon fiber barrel, specifically designed for long-range accuracy and performance, no matter the environmental extremes. The barrel comes threaded 5/8-24 with a thread protector and is ready for the installation of any aftermarket muzzle device.

PROOF Research’s new Tundra long-range hunting rifle is available in a variety of calibers:

·6CM

·6.5 CM

·6.5 PRC

·7 Rem Mag

·28 Nosler

·.308 Win

·.300 WM

·.300 WSM

·.300 PRC

·.300 RUM

·.338 Lapua

Offered in finish color choices of Black Granite, Green Granite, Brown Granite, Tactical Flat Dark Earth, Black Jungle Camo, Blue Jungle Camo, Green Jungle Camo, Desert Warrior, Grassland Green, Grassland Tan, and Cotton Candy, the Tundra rifle has a starting MSRP of $6,999.

Don’t forget to take a look at the company’s Conviction Ti rifle, which was introduced in August.

Galco’s Switchback Belt Holster

Galco’s Switchback Belt Holster

From Galco

A general-purpose hybrid design that combines the best elements of leather and synthetic, the Switchback is fully ambidextrous and can be carried in the strongside or crossdraw positions. The main body of the holster is constructed of layered synthetics, beginning with an outer layer of durable black ballistic nylon. Beneath that is closed cell foam that imparts structure to the holster body and protection for the firearm in the field. Finally, a layer of 420 denier gunmetal-colored packcloth lines the holster.

An ambidextrous “exoskeleton” made of top grain steerhide allows the belt to be threaded through either side of the holster body in strongside or crossdraw positions, for right or left hand draw. The retention strap is reversible for ambidextrous use.

The Switchback is a perfect way to pack a full-size pistol or revolver in the great outdoors or on the range. Available in black finish, it retails for only $52.
