SneakyHunter Hiker Bootlamps

SneakyHunter Hiker Bootlamps

From SneakyHunter

SneakyHunter Hikers Bootlamps – essentially, headlamps for your feet – eliminate many of the problems with conventional headlamps and hand-held flashlights. When wearing a headlamp, talking to your companions becomes an issue when you face them and inadvertently blind them by shining your light directly into their eyes, destroying their night vision for up to 45 minutes. Also, many hikers face depth perception issues when using a light source above the waist.

SneakyHunter Hiker Bootlamps are a unique invention, not a knockoff of a product already on the market, and are perfect for a myriad of outdoor activities by providing new solutions to common problems experienced with headlamps and flashlights. They stabilize your visual perception by keeping the light low to the ground. They place your lighting as far from your face as possible, offering more relief on your eyes. The lights operate using three AAA batteries and have three settings – white, for general hiking; red, for hiking with a soft light that will not spook animals; and green, which offers less eyestrain over time. You activate them by simply pushing the button on top – one click for white, two clicks for red, three clicks for green. The lid is rated as highly water resistant. They’re attached to your boot via an easy-to-use 18-inch long, 1-inch wide elastic cinch strap. The hook and loop strap is placed under your instep, and the two prongs on the front of the unit are slipped under your boot or shoelaces, resulting in a slip-proof attachment. The unit is made so that when it is mounted in the proper position, the light will shine where you’ll be walking.

Originally designed to be put directly on the boot, the SneakyHunter Bootlamps also work well when strapped on the knees. This directs the light where you are walking and is ideal in situations when walking in water, snow or other inclement ground situations.

Avid outdoorsmen and entrepreneurs Jim and Annette Manroe wondered why isn’t there a lighting system that solves the obvious problems with headlamps and flashlights? It was when he was reviewing the reason he often spooked elk when hiking in the dark that Jim had an idea. “SneakyHunter Bootlamps were first conceived when I spent time in the offseason reviewing my unsuccessful hunts,” Manroe said. “I realized there were missed opportunities from my headlamp illuminating the eyes of big game, or generally disturbing them with scattered light when I inadvertently flashed them.” The solution? A lighting system that allowed Jim to turn his head without shining his light in that direction.

Whether you’re hiking up and down the mountain or along the trail, going for your morning walk before dawn, walking your dog, gathering firewood, or any other in-the-dark outdoor activity, SneakyHunter Hikers Bootlamps are the perfect lighting solution. One creative customer even uses them while snowshoeing in the dark, while another wears hers as an armband when walking her dog so that approaching vehicles can easily see her.

Made in the USA, available colors include white, red, and green (Hikers Bootlamps), and white, red, and violet (Hunters Bootlamps.) MSRP is $59.99 for two bootlamps, and they come with a one year limited warranty. More information is available at www.sneakyhunter.com.

Pyrm 1 Camo Partners with Tatonka NZ on New Stealth Packs

Pyrm 1 Camo Partners with Tatonka NZ on New Stealth Packs

From Tatonka NZ

Tatonka NZ recently launched their brand new line of Prym1 Woodlands Stealth Packs to the NZ outdoor/hunting market.

“Since their introduction, we have had amazing feedback about our game-changing Tatonka Stealth packs. However, a common request we’ve received since their launch is for a camo pattern. We are excited to now deliver this with the introduction of our new Prym1 Woodlands Camo Stealth Packs!” – Tatonka NZ

“As part of our continued global expansion, we’re really excited to partner with Tatonka, an outdoor ‘powerhouse brand’ that are renowned as experts in producing the most rugged, highest quality packs, tents and other outdoor accessories.

Decades of outdoor experience can be found in Tatonka products. They develop, manufacture and test the products themselves – and deliver them all over the world. They then receive valuable feedback from their customer’s, which flows directly back into their product development. So, when they came knocking on our door for a game-changing concealment pattern to take their product to the next level, we truly delivered. The Prym1 Woodlands is built for the bush, and NZ hunter’s can rest assured that they will be concealed in our camo when they need it most.” – Stacie Walker, Prym1 Camo.

These packs were designed specifically for New Zealand stalking conditions, with a soft, quiet fabric and all the essential features. The new Prym1 Woodlands camo print has taken the level of stealth to a new level, ensuring these packs are truly the ultimate stalking companion.

The full range:

– Bison Stealth 75+10L

– Stealth Hunting Pack 35+10L

– Stealth Hunting Pack 30L

– Stealth Hunting Pack 20L

Unlike other daypacks, these packs are capable of carrying decent loads.

The Bison range of packs are virtually bombproof and capable of carrying heavy loads over 25kg in comfort thanks to the X1 carrying system that was originally designed for the German military. The 75+10 litre size is ideal for longer hunting trips where you need plenty of gear.

The Stealth 35+10 designed to comfortably carry loads up to 35kg, which means it is perfect for the roar and meat harvesting trips. The decent sized front pockets on the 35+10 mean you can move all your gear into the front pockets and use the main compartment for meat storage when required. It is specifically designed so the pack can be laid flat and the space between the front pockets can be used as a shooting rest.

The Stealth 30L is designed to be able to carry 20kg in comfort, so you can easily carry meat out if your hunting trip is successful. The Stealth 20L is the ideal daypack for the hunter where light weight is the priority. This pack is also designed so it can be rolled up and attached to a Tatonka Bison 75+10 or 90+10 pack.

All packs in this range are equipped with RECCO® reflectors, part of the RECCO® rescue system that helps to locate people in rescue situations.

Springfield Armory XD-M Elite 3.8” Compact

Springfield Armory XD-M Elite 3.8” Compact

From Springfield Armory

Springfield Armory is proud to announce the newest addition to the popular XD-M Elite series — the XD-M Elite 3.8″ Compact. This EDC-ready 9 mm, like all the XD-M Elites, redefines what you should expect from modern, striker-fired firearms.

The XD-M Elite 3.8″ Compact is designed for concealed carry, combining impressive capacity and performance with concealable dimensions for ease of carry. The 3.8″ match grade Melonite® finished barrel maximizes ballistic performance while remaining compact for concealability, and the compact grip frame houses a double-column stainless steel magazine that provides 14+1 capacity in the two included magazines.

How Long Will Polymer Handguns Last?

To facilitate quick reloads, the XD-M® Elite 3.8″ Compact also features a removable extended and flared “short” magwell. An additional benefit of the removable magwell is that you can quickly convert the pistol from a compact to a full-size frame with a 19+1 capacity. This is accomplished by simply removing the magwell and employing optional full-size XD-M magazines with compatible magazine sleeves.

At the heart of the pistol is the Match Enhanced Trigger Assembly (META™) system, a superbly refined trigger designed to wring out the most from the pistol’s most important interface with the shooter. Featuring a flat face and integral overtravel stop, the META™ system delivers the finest trigger pull available on a production polymer-framed pistol.

The XD-M® Elite 3.8″ Compact includes an ambidextrous slide stop and magazine release, ensuring that it can be run easily by either hand. Additionally, improved slide serrations with enlarged grasping grooves provide enhanced ergonomics and slip-free purchase. Topping off its forged steel slide is Springfield Armory’s excellent Tactical Rack U-Dot™ rear sight. It features a u-shaped white outline and works in concert with the high-visibility fiber optic front sight.

“This newest addition to the XD-M® Elite line of pistols gives shooters and concealed carry users a great option for EDC,” says Steve Kramer, Vice President of Marketing for Springfield Armory. “Features like the META™ trigger, fully ambidextrous controls and a funneled, removable magwell make the XD-M® Elite 3.8″ Compact a must-have for CCW.”

If you need a capable and powerful 9mm pistol that combines ultra-refined performance with concealable dimensions, then look no further than the new XD-M® Elite 3.8″ Compact.

Streamlight TLR-1 HL Dual Remote Switch Kit

If you’re one of the first-time gun owners who picked up a modern sporting rifle or shotgun for home defense, lighting is critical. This unit Streamlight introduced in January that could bolster your effectiveness in low-light encounters.

Here’s the company’s press release with full specs.

Streamlight, Inc., a leading provider of high-performance lighting and weapon light/laser sighting devices, launched the TLR-1 HL® Dual Remote Kit. The new kit, with included TLR-1 HL light, allows for the individual or simultaneous activation of the light and an external aiming device. With direct mounting to all MIL-STD-1913 (Picatinny) rails, the Dual Remote Pressure Switch permits momentary or constant activation. The company also introduced the TLR® Dual Remote Switch Accessory for use with the Streamlight TLR-1® and TLR-2® series lights and an accompanying external aiming device.

“Tactical users and outdoor enthusiasts who also want to use an external aiming laser can now do so, conveniently and easily, with the TLR-1 HL Kit or the TLR Dual Remote Switch Accessory,” said Streamlight President and Chief Executive Officer Ray Sharrah. “Both provide users with what they need, and have been requesting to connect to their TLR weapon mounted lights.”

The new TLR-1 HL Kit includes the TLR-1 HL weapon light with Safe Off Tail switch, lithium batteries, a Dual Remote Pressure Switch, and mounting clips. The TLR Dual Remote Switch Accessory includes a Dual Remote Pressure Switch for use with TLR-1 or TLR-2 series lights (sold separately) and mounting clips.

More and more companies are going wireless on their weaponlight and scope solutions, too. Here’s my look at the trend.

The TLR-1 HL Dual Remote Switch Kit and the TLR Dual Remote Switch Accessory have MSRPs of $351.63 and $75.00, respectively, and include Streamlight’s Limited Lifetime Warranty.

Today’s defensive lighting systems are way advanced to those from a few years ago. Here’s a look at what goes into today’s systems, and how we got here.

Rise Armament Watchman Rifle and Pistol

Rise Armament Watchman Rifle and Pistol

New this year is are the RISE Armament Watchman and Pistol, and chambered in .223 Wylde they’re great options for the five million first-time gun owners who’ve recently exercised their Second Amendment Rights for the first time. Here’s the original press release from the company.

RISE Armament, a premier manufacturer and supplier of triggers, components, and firearms is pleased to announce that the Watchman rifle and pistol will now be available to consumers.  

In 2018, RISE made it their mission to develop a supremely accurate, highly dependable, yet affordable rifle for law enforcement officers. With input from SWAT/SOT/SRT officers, patrol officers, military snipers, competitive shooters, and firearms instructors, the RISE Armament Watchman was born.

And when it comes to the aluminum used in AR construction, my interview with experts in the field explains a lot.

The success of the Watchman rifle with law enforcement motivated RISE to introduce the model to the consumer market. The Watchman is chambered .223 Wylde and is available in both rifle and pistol configurations.

The Watchman comes standard with a RISE match-grade trigger that features a crisp, balanced break and lightened pull weight. A free-floated 416R stainless steel barrel provides superior accuracy and proprietary weight reduction. This barrel is a favorite among top competitive shooters. The Watchman is air gauged and button rifled, shooting sub MOA with most factory ammo. Many shooters are regularly recording hits out to 600 yards with heavier ammunition.

The rifle configuration has a 16.1” barrel with a mid-length gas system for more manageable recoil. The pistol configuration has an 11.5” barrel with a carbine-length gas system. The Veil flash hider was developed specifically for the Watchman, ensuring flash minimization in low-light environments. Additionally, the ringing that’s typical with prong-style flash hiders has been engineered out to be nearly nonexistent.

The Watchman’s handguard boasts a continuous 12 o’clock top rail, MLOK slots, and QD points spanning 360 degrees for limitless customization options. It has a slim profile for comfort and a skeletonized design for weight reduction.

Other Features Include:

  • Forged aluminum receivers
  • Premium black nitride bolt carrier group for dependability and smoother shooting
  • Ambidextrous safety
  • Magpul pistol grip
  • Magpul MOE stock on the rifle; SB Tactical SBA3 brace on the pistol
  • Rifle weight: 6 lbs. 8 oz.; pistol weight: 6 lbs. 2 oz.
  • Includes one magazine
  • Backed by RISE Armament’s lifetime manufacturing warranty
  • MSRP:  $1,349 (rifle) and $1,449 (pistol)

And if you’re a new owner and find the aluminum references confusing. Experts in the industry provided the translation in my article on the gunmaking material.

Streamlight TLR-9 Rail-Mounted Tactical Light

Streamlight TLR-9 Rail-Mounted Tactical Light

Streamlight introduced its TLR-9 back in January, and it’s a great addition for the five million new gun owners who have recently exercised their Second Amendment rights for the first time.

Here’s the original press release from the company with all the vital specs.

Streamlight® Inc., a leading provider of high-performance lighting and weapon light/laser sighting devices, introduced the TLR-9™ rail mounted tactical light, designed for use with full frame handguns. Featuring a slim, compact design, the new light offers ergonomic rear switches with either a low or high position to match users’ shooting styles, while providing 1,000 lumens for a variety of tactical and home defense uses.

“This lightweight new tactical light is engineered to be both sleek and powerful, featuring a high power LED for extreme brightness and extensive range, as well as good peripheral coverage,” said Streamlight President and Chief Executive Officer Ray Sharrah. “It also features an ambidextrous on/off rear switch with low and high positions to suit user preference. And it fits a wide variety of full frame handguns, making it an ideal light for first responder and tactical applications.” 

More and more companies are going wireless on their weaponlight and scope solutions, too. Here’s my look at the trend.

The TLR-9 uses a power LED to provide 1,000 lumens and 10,000 candela over a 200-meter beam distance with a run time of 1.5 hours; the light’s strobe mode offers 3 continuous hours of run time. The light is energized by two 3 Volt CR123A lithium batteries.

Securely fitting to a broad range of weapons, the TLR-9 features a one-handed, snap on and tighten interface that keeps hands away from gun muzzles when attaching or detaching it. The light also includes a Safe Off feature, locking it to prevent accidental activation. A key kit is included to securely fit the light to a broad array of handguns.

Constructed with durable 6000 Series machined aircraft aluminum with a black anodized finish, the TLR-9 weighs 4.26 ounces and measures 3.87 inches in length. 

With extensively live-fire tested, impact-resistant construction, the new model features an IPX7-rated design, making it waterproof to 1 meter for 30 minutes.

The TLR-9 is packaged as the TLR-9 FLEX that comes with a High switch mounted on the light, plus an included Low switch. It has an MSRP of $240.00, and comes with Streamlight’s Limited Lifetime Warranty.  

 Flashlights have changed, a lot. Here’s a look at how they’ve evolved in the past few years.

The Ultimate in a Secure Shooting Platform

The Ultimate in a Secure Shooting Platform

From Ulfhednar

Serious long-range shooters that fire from the standing, sitting and kneeling positions discovered the value of locking their rifle on target using a heavy-duty tripod combined with a clamp that provides a rock-solid, wiggle-free rest. This is where the new Ulfhednar “Deadlock” Clamp stands out. Standard 1/4-20 & 3/8-16 threads allow direct mounting on most standard tripods or ball heads — including Ulfhednar’s state-of-the-art Tripod HD 40. The ruggedness and versatility of this combination stand above the crowd – even in a strong wind.

The Deadlock is quick to maneuver, and grips from both sides, with rubber grips that also provide protection and help absorb vibration. The large adjustment knob makes it easy to adjust with one hand. Made from 7075 T651 aluminum, with a black MIL-A-8625 Type III hard coat anodized surface, the dimensions are 95x95x60 mm (3.75 x 3.75 x 2.35 inches); the knob adds 25 mm, or .98-inch). Weight is 500 grams (17.64 oz.) It comes with a small Ulfhednar storage pouch with Molle on the back for easy transportation. MSRP is $420.02.

For rifles with a Picatinny rail, the Ulfhednar “Loke” adapter is the company’s signature product. Named for the god Loki in Norse mythology — a cunning trickster who could change his shape — the Loke adapter is a Picatinny / Arca adapter with Atlas PSR footprint. It fits right on the Atlas PSR two-foot and allows seamless foot-to-back movement along the Arca rail on all sport rifles. The fast and reliable adjustment knob makes it easy to slide the clamp back and forth. It’s made from 7075 T651 aluminum, comes in a black MIL-A-8625 Type III Hard Coat Anodized surface, and weighs just 70 grams (2.47 oz.) MSRP is $152.12.

All Ulfhednar products are designed and assembled in Norway. For more information, visit https://www.ulfhednar.no/.
