Alien Gear Holsters Announces Rapid Force Duty Holster

From Alien Gear

Post Falls, Id. – Alien Gear Holsters is pleased to announce the launch of the Rapid Force Duty Holster, brand new for the year 2021 and beyond.

See it online at: https://aliengearholsters.com/duty-holsters

The Rapid Force Duty Holster is an evolution of the duty holster, made with the input of real law enforcement officers and military personnel who know what a duty holster has to have, and how it must function in the line of duty.

The Rapid Force Duty Holster is available with Level II or Level III active retention, as well as adjustable passive retention, for the safety and security the uniformed officer needs. It can be ordered for pistols equipped with or without a weapon light and with or without red dot sight.

Active retention comes from an ejection port block and, on Level III models, a tilting locking backstrap. For pistols with a red dot sight, an MRDS hood covers the optic, protecting it from the elements, and drops free when the backstrap is released.

The control system has been designed for a faster, more ergonomic response to the user. The Gross Motor Response system positions both controls to be controlled with a single motion of the shooting hand thumb while maintaining a proper grip on the pistol.

The holster is made from a durable polymer blend similar to the ones used to make many firearms. It is available in plain matte and basketweave finishes, whichever is required by your department.

Available attachment systems include a jacket slot belt slide in Low, Mid or High ride heights, a paddle attachment for plainclothes or off-duty use, as a MOLLE holster for attachment to a vest, or a drop leg attachment.

A quick-detach system is also available as an add-on for any holster configuration, giving you the freedom to move your holster quickly to and from any attachment system.

The Rapid Force Duty Holster is available now for Glock 19 and 17 pistols up to Gen 5, and Gen 4 Glock 22 and Glock 23 pistols. Other popular duty pistols, including the Sig P320 and S&W M&P series, will follow in coming months.

While available for individual purchase, the Rapid Force Duty Holster can also be ordered in lots for departments or agencies. Contact our sales team for further information.

The Rapid Force Duty Holster is made in the USA and comes backed by a 30-day Field Test return period after purchase, and a 3-year warranty against defects in workmanship or materials.

Bond Arms Rough Series Double-Barrel Handguns

Bond Arms Rough Series Double-Barrel Handguns

From Bond Arms

Bond Arms is known for its outstanding fit and finish on every gun they build. To create a more affordable option for budget-conscious customers without compromising features, Bond Arms trimmed down its finishing process. The Rough Series was born and included the Roughneck, Rowdy, and the newest addition, the Grizzly double-barrel guns. The result is a handgun with the same outstanding qualities inherent in every Bond Arms’ gun without all the frills.

Each Rough Series gun undergoes a quick clean-up and deburring to knock off the sharp edges. After the initial treatment, guns are bead blasted, giving them a rough finish. The parting lines in the metal frame and trigger guard add to the cool factor. Swirly tool marks on the barrels and tiny casting imperfections and rough areas add a unique individual character to these handguns. Built-in a fraction of the time compared to standard production models, the reduced labor cost of the Rough Series guns translates into huge savings for the customer.

The Rough Series Handguns

Bond Rough Series handguns include premium features found in all their double-barrelled guns, like stainless-steel barrels and frames, cross-bolt safety, retracting firing pins, spring-loaded cam-lock lever and rebounding hammer. Rough Series guns use the same grade of stainless steel as all production models.

The Roughneck is a new type of Bond Arms’ gun. It’s built with a 2.5 in. barrel, chambered for 9mm, 357/38 or 45ACP, and features a blade front sight and fixed rear sight. The compact handgun uses a textured rubber grip. The Roughneck works best with smooth-lined holsters. $269

At 5 inches long, the Rough N’ Rowdy is the ‘big brother’ in the line, chambered for the powerful .45 Long Colt, and 2½-inch .410 bore shotshells. A blade front sight and fixed rear sight mount directly on its 3-inch barrels. A smooth-lined holster works best. $299

The Grizzly features several upgrades from its Rowdy cousin. Vibrant rosewood grips engraved with grizzly bear artwork, the Bond Arms name and a checkered panel, add texture and character. The pistol includes a matching leather holster embossed with a grizzly bear. Its 3-inch barrels are chambered in .45 Long Colt, and 2½-inch .410 bore shotshells. $377

The Bond Arms Rough Series are compact and rugged handguns built with the same quality parts and materials as the other Bond Arms production models. The rough finish gives each pistol its unique charm.

Springfield Armory Hellcat RDP 9mm

Springfield Armory Hellcat RDP 9mm

From Springfield Armory

Springfield Armory® is proud to introduce an exciting new variant of its wildly popular micro 9mm Hellcat® — the Hellcat RDP™ (Rapid Defense Package). The RDP is replete with features that make this high-capacity, ultra-compact pistol even more versatile.

The new Hellcat RDP builds on the success and popularity of the original Hellcat OSP™ micro 9mm with the addition of a 3.8″ threaded barrel and an included Self Indexing Compensator. Compact and capable, the compensator vents gas from the barrel to significantly reduce muzzle rise and felt recoil. Made of lightweight 8082 aluminum, the compensator features a patented self-indexing mounting system that ensures the port is correctly oriented every time. That means it’s a breeze to install or remove with no need for shims or tools.

“The Hellcat reshaped the way people viewed what a CCW pistol can be. Now, the Hellcat RDP is taking the performance of this highly capable pistol to the next level,” says Steve Kramer, Vice President of Marketing for Springfield Armory.

Also debuting today is HEX™ optics by Springfield Armory. Direct-mounted on the slide of the Hellcat RDP is the all-new HEX Wasp™ red dot, utilizing the Springfield Micro™ footprint made popular by the Hellcat OSP. The ruggedly built, IPX7 waterproof-rated Wasp features an aluminum body and an anti-glare-coated glass lens, and its low-mount design means it can co-witness with the handgun’s fixed tritium/luminescent front sight and Tactical Rack U-Notch rear sight.

“We are excited about the introduction of HEX optics for the self-defense market. Built to the same standards of quality and performance you have come to expect from Springfield Armory, HEX precision crafted optics offer exceptional value and are backed by a lifetime warranty,” continued Steve Kramer.

The Hellcat RDP also features an optional low-profile ambidextrous manual safety located at the rear of the frame, and the new Gen 2 Hellcat trigger. This new trigger offers enhanced ergonomics for a wide range of hand sizes for an even more comfortable shooting experience.

With all these features plus the handgun’s impressive 11- and 13-round capacities, the Hellcat RDP is a formidable, cutting-edge self-defense firearm.

Announcing HEX Optics by Springfield Armory

Announcing HEX Optics by Springfield Armory

From Springfield Armory

Springfield Armory® is proud to announce the new HEX™ line of optics, designed to deliver a higher standard of performance and superior optical support for handguns and long guns. The two new HEX optics offer intuitive target acquisition, faster follow-up shots and every-day dependability.

The micro-sized HEX Wasp™ is intended for use on CCW pistols like the 9mm Hellcat® OSP™ and features the Springfield Micro™ footprint popularized by the Hellcat OSP. This system allows for direct mounting to the slide of a pistol, ensuring the lowest possible mount and an ability to co-witness with iron sights like those of the Hellcat. The HEX Wasp is “always-on,” featuring an auto-dimming sensor that regulates the brightness of the dot based on changing ambient light conditions. Battery life is rated at a two-year runtime.

The standard-sized sibling to the Wasp is the HEX Dragonfly™, a versatile red dot sight perfectly suited for use with full-size handguns as well as rifles and shotguns. Employing the Springfield Standard™ footprint, the Dragonfly allows the user to manually choose from eight brightness levels, and a 16-hour auto-off feature prevents the battery from being unintentionally drained. Battery life is rated at a three-year runtime.

Machined from 6061 T6 aluminum that is Hardcoat anodized for protection and durability, the HEX 3.5 MOA Wasp and Dragonfly feature patent-pending side serrations as well as lens shrouds on the forward face that offer added protection for the scratch-resistant, anti-glare-coated glass lenses. Additionally, IPX7-rated waterproofing ensures rugged dependability.

“With the release of the new HEX line of red dots, Springfield Armory is providing shooters with appealing options for their optics-ready firearms,” says Steve Kramer, Vice President of Marketing for Springfield Armory. “The demand for quality red dot optics is growing every day, and these HEX optics stand ready to deliver the quality and performance shooters are expecting.”

Each HEX is built to exacting specifications from premium materials, and every HEX product is thoroughly tested and backed by a Lifetime Warranty.

Critical ounces have been removed from the slide for a pistol that cycles quicker, recoils less, and carries more comfortably.

  • Length: 7.16″
  • Barrel Length: 4″
  • Height Including Magwell: 4.77″
  • Width: 0.99″ Slide
