Galco Scout 3.0 for the SIG-Sauer P365

From Galco

Galco has introduced the Scout 3.0 tuckable inside the waistband holster for the SIG-Sauer P365, one of today’s most popular modern carry pistols! The highly versatile Scout 3.0 merges Galco’s historic quality, comfort, and high performance as an option for daily CCW needs.

The Scout 3.0’s open top and full firing grip accessibility combine for a fast and easy draw—critically important in fast-moving self-defense situations. The reinforced holster mouth provides a safe and simple return to the holster after action.

The Scout is constructed with the rough side of the leather out. This construction method provides additional stability in the waistband, as well as a smooth leather holster pocket for a faster, slicker feel on the draw.

The Scout 3.0’s versatility comes from its adjustability for cant and angle. You like to carry in the currently-hot appendix position? Adjust the belt clip to a neutral (vertical) cant. Prefer a more traditional strongside behind-the-hip position? Just angle the clip to accommodate. Like a crossdraw carry? Move the clip the other direction!

The ambidextrous Scout 3.0 is supplied with two types of interchangeable tuckable clips. The first is the UniClip, designed to go over the belt, but which also works well without a belt. The second is the Ultimate Stealth clip with hook, which fits on the trouser waistband, under or behind a belt with just the clip showing, for the ultimate in stealthy concealment!

Available in natural finish with black mouth band, the Scout’s MSRP is $89.

The company also recently introduced a more classically styled CCW holster for the SIG Sauer P320 XCompact.

Primary Arms Now Shipping New GLX Rifle Scopes

From Primary Arms

Primary Arms Optics is now shipping its new GLx 2.5-10×44 mm FFP ACSS Raptor M2 and GLx4-16×50 mm FFP MIL-DOT rifle scopes. Following the initial release of GLx in 2019, Primary Arms’ Optics latest product line features two new reticle configurations elevated by GLx innovation. Both new GLx scopes are now available for purchase from primaryarms.com and your preferred retailers.

“These scopes are part of our mid-tier lineup of optics, called GLx,” said Marshall Lerner, CEO of Primary Arms. “GLx brings premium technologies and materials into an approachable price range, providing customers an unbeatable value.”

What’s the difference between a wire and etched-glass reticle?

The GLx 2.5-10×44 mm is a versatility-driven powerhouse, offering a 44 mm objective lens without the heavy weight. This lens draws more light than comparable 24 mm LPVO lenses, providing the user with an exceptional image quality for greater precision at distance. In close quarters, the large eyebox and lightweight body make this optic nimble, as targets are quick to acquire with the innovative ACSS reticle. The ACSS Raptor M2 is the perfect pairing for this scope, as it brings peerless utility into a compact, intuitive horseshoe design.

For long distance precision, the GLx 4-16×50 mm FFP Rifle Scope with MIL-DOT reticle blends tradition with GLx innovation. MIL-DOT reticles are among the most proven, well-studied reticles in the world. By bringing the MIL-DOT reticle into the GLx 4-16×50 mm body, users can make full use of its refined features. The enhanced turret design features steel adjustment rings, which guarantees flawless tracking accuracy that is guaranteed to last a lifetime.

Both scopes come with the company’s enhanced locking turrets with return to zero, AutoLive motion sensing reticle illumination, and hardened steel-on-steel adjustment system. In pursuit of this effort, all GLx optics are backed by Primary Arms’ lifetime. The company was recently honored by the state of Texas for the volume of veterans it employs.

Upgrades to the CZ P-10

From Source Outdoor Group

All CZ P-10 semi-automatic pistols, from CZ-USA, feature a swappable magazine release, which operates smoother than the ambidextrous release of the past. Just a few minutes’ work reverses the release, so lefties can hit the release with their thumb from the right side of the pistol.

P10s feel right in the hand much like the classic CZ 75 and their trigger feel is at the top of the class when it comes to striker-fired pistols. With a solid wall, a clean break, and a tactile, audible reset, the P-10’s trigger leaves many other striker guns in its dust.

How Long Will a Polymer Handgun Last and Which Chemicals to Avoid.

Built to withstand the rigors of military use, the P-10s are constructed around a fiber-reinforced polymer frame coated with a hardy nitride finish. Ardent shooters will appreciate the ruggedness of these P-10s. The generous trigger guard allows use with gloved hands and is undercut to allow as high a grip as possible. With CZ reliability, engineered ergonomics and a bevy of features both familiar and new, the P-10 is the complete package.

CZ P-10 F Suppressor-Ready


With an extended barrel threaded 1/2×28, this striker-fired pistol can fill every role—from range-day plinker or duty weapon to bedside protector (the later with the addition of a light and compact can).

CZ P-10 F OD Green

With its OD Green frame and a set of tritium 3-dot night sights, this full-size P-10 holds 19+1 in the magazine and features CZ-USA’s, easily swappable magazine release. Built with the same crisp trigger and engineered ergonomics that have made the P-10 platform a favorite, the full-size frame of the F model brings a longer sight radius, longer barrel, and longer grip for more consistency and control. Result: superior accuracy in all shooting scenarios.

Stevens 301 Turkey Shotgun

From Savage Arms

As ammunition makers continue to refine shotgun loads, the venerable .410 caliber has become popular for turkey hunters looking to test their skills. Savage Arms has seen this potential and crafted a dedicated gobbler gun perfect for taking Toms. The Stevens 301 Turkey is a light, fast-handling shotgun that’s perfect for those who appreciate the challenge of the .410.

“We built the 301 Turkey guns around Federal’s Heavyweight TSS turkey loads,” Jessica Treglia Sr., brand manager at Savage Arms, said. “These shotguns are light, which makes them easy to hold still while you’re calling in birds. The 26-inch barrel produces a tight pattern, which allows hunters to take ethical shots at longer ranges. If you’re up to the challenge of hunting with a .410, you’ll love the 301 Turkey models.”

The Stevens 301 Turkey is a single-shot, break-action shotgun with a removable one-piece rail that makes it easy to equip with an optic. They’re available in Mossy Oak Bottomland and Obsession camouflage options. For those who want a larger bore, the 301 also comes in 20 gauge and 12 gauge.

301 Turkey Features

  • Single-shot, break-action shotgun
  • Synthetic stock and foreeend with Mossy Oak Bottomland camo
  • 26-inch barrel optimized for Federal Premium Heavyweight TSS turkey loads
  • 3-inch chamber

  • Bead sight compatible with TruGlo sight systems
  • Extra-full choke included (Win. choke pattern ½-32UN)
  • Manual hammer blocking safety
  • MSRP in a variety of camo patterns is $204

The Stevens 301 Turkey XP offers even more speed and precision with the addition of its 1×30 mm red-dot optic. The optic comes mounted and boresighted. The 301 Turkey XP is available in Mossy Oak Bottomland and Obsession camouflage patterns.

301 Turkey XP Features

Meprolight FT Bullseye Sight

From Meprolight

Late last year SIG Sauer introduced the Sig 365 SAS (Sig-Anti-Snag). One of the unique features to make it snag-proof is the low profile Meprolight FT Bullseye sight. Gun sales have maintained their record pace over the past few months and the Sig 365 SAS remains a top seller. Independent reviews regarding the 365 SAS with the FT Bullseye have been positive:

“Instead of traditional iron sights, Sig took a Meprolight Bullseye sight and melted’ it down into the slide. Again, we’d like to re-emphasize how gimmicky we thought the sight was. We’d also like to point out how wrong we were. How much did we love it? I’m looking to have the Meprolight Bullseye mounted on other firearms.” (Ryan Cleckner, gununiversity.com)

“Finally, let’s talk about the FT Bullseye Sights. Besides the obvious cool factor, the real assessment centers around their functionality. Do they actually work? While I’ve only put 100-rounds down range, I can say that sight acquisition is quick and painless. These are possibly the easiest sights to pick up. If you have an astigmatism, as I do, then you may want to check out the SAS for this reason alone.” (Seth Rogers, guns.com)

Utilizing patented fiber-optic technology, Meprolight’s engineers combined tritium with fiber optics to create the FT Bullseye, a single rear micro red-dot style sight that works day or night—no batteries needed. Meprolight shortened the length of the optic, added an optical lens, tritium and a dot/circle reticle. Whether in competition or in defensive situations, the goal is to place rounds on target quickly and accurately. As soon as the dot is centered in the circle creating a bullseye, you’re on target. When milliseconds count, give yourself the advantage. The low prolife design allows you to use your normal holster.

The FT Bullseye replaces your rear sight and simply mounts into the existing dovetail. It is available in red or green dot/circle for all Glock models, IWI, Springfield XD and XDM models, S&W including M&P Shield, CZ, H&K Ruger and Kriss. Meprolight guarantees the tritium to last up to 12 years.

And if you’re in the market for backup iron sights for an AR, take a look at the new Meprolight FRBS, also with tritium.

National Police Ammunition Introduces 9 mm Solid Copper Hollow Point +P HELO Defense Round

From National Police Ammunition

National Police Ammunition (NPA) has announced the development and release of its HELO Defense 9 mm 115 grain + P solid copper hollow point with proprietary interior skives. The HELO Defense 9 mm is the same bullet that has been adopted by several law enforcement agencies known as the “HELO Duty” but is now available for the law-abiding citizen for self-defense. “HELO” is an acronym for high expansion, law enforcement, ordinance.

The NPA proprietary HELO family of products was originally designed for law enforcement and specifically to pass and exceed all FBI performance protocols. Unlike bonded jacketed bullets the HELO is formed from a solid piece of high-grade virgin copper. At that point a proprietary cavity is formed with interior skives, the copper bullet is heat treated to the ideal hardness to allow the projectile to achieve maximum penetration and expansion while retaining 100 percent of its grain weight through ballistic gel and does not break apart like many copper hollow points on the market today.

An additional design benefit is the HELO’s ability to defeat barriers and not have its cavity get “plugged” by heaving clothing, drywall and even plywood. The projectile also has a black oxide coating that reduced copper fouling in a firearm barrel and reduces drag for maximum velocity without over-pressuring the cartridge. The HELO was designed to hit all the benchmarks of the FBI Protocol Test even penetrating at the minimum length of 12 inches into bare gel from a Glock 43 sub-compact pocket pistol and will also penetrate an average of 15 inches of gel from a full-size defense pistol averaging 1,150 FPS from a 4-inch barrel.

The 9mm HELO was tested for accuracy by using several full sizes duty pistols and not a test fixture barrel which most manufacturers use when reporting their accuracy specs. The 9 mm HELO consistently shoots below a 2-inch group at 25 yards shot from a rest with a 4-inch-barreled duty pistol.

Also new in the self-defense ammo category is Federal’s Punch for a variety of chamberings.

Night Fision and Costa Ludus Night Sight Collaboration

From Night Fision

Night Fision is excited to announce a collaborative night sight project with firearms instructor Chris Costa. This series of sights, known as the Night Fision Costa Ludus sights, includes six different configurations.

The Costa Ludus sights were designed with direction from Chris Costa, based on his extensive background with the United States Coast Guard and as a firearm instructor. These sights have several unique features that set them apart from other Night Fision sights. Most notably, there are serrations on the front and rear sights to reduce glare. There are also serrations on the front edge of the rear sight to maximize one-handed manipulation. Costa Ludus sights include a proprietary Night Fision Perfect Dot in the front sight and a horizontal tritium bar in the rear sight. The tritium bar gives the shooter a clear distinction between the front and rear sights in low light conditions. The rear sight is also cut to maximize the target picture for fast acquisition.

“Working with Chris to develop these sights has been a great experience. He knows exactly what he wants in a sight, and we are happy we could execute his vision,” said Jacob Herman, director of sales for Night Fision.

The Night Fision Costa Ludus sights are available exclusively for Glock pistols, in two versions: one that includes MOS and one that excludes MOS.

“Night Fision exceeded my expectations in creating sights to my exact specifications,” said Chris Costa. “I am very impressed with their innovation and the quality of their products, and that led to this partnership.”

All Night Fision Costa Ludus sights are backed by Night Fision’s 16-year warranty. These sights can be ordered from a dealer or at www.nightfision.com.

Night Fision’s sister company, Cammenga, produces the U.S. Army’s Official Tritium Lensatic Compass and provides them to national militaries around the world. As a result, Night Fision utilizes over 25 years of tritium insertion and military-grade manufacturing expertise to provide the brightest tritium night sights on the market today.

Since the sights are only made for Glock, here’s a link to some new Truglo tritium sights for Smith & Wesson M&P Shield 9 EZ owners.

GoPro’s New Zeus Mini—The World’s Most Versatile Light

From GoPro

Mount it, wear it, love it—GoPro’s magnetic multipurpose waterproof light, Zeus Mini, brings the brand’s legendary versatility to lights. Now available on GoPro.com for $69.99, the rechargeable Zeus Mini features a robust magnetic swiveling clip and is compatible with GoPro’s full line of camera mounts—making it insanely convenient for a wide range of uses.

“Zeus Mini brings to lighting what the HERO camera brings to cameras—incredible versatility, design and performance,” said GoPro’s founder and CEO Nicholas Woodman. “Once you start using Zeus Mini, you realize how convenient it is to have added light during so many situations. I now keep one in my car, one in my toolbox and one in my backpack for on-the-go readiness. It’s addictively enabling.”

Zeus Mini combines the illumination power of GoPro’s Light Mod with the versatility of its Magnetic Swivel Clip to deliver an insanely convenient and capable, compact, hands-free LED lighting solution.

Whether you need to light up the trail, under the hood or under the sink, Zeus Mini makes it easy thanks to its integrated magnetic swiveling clip mount. Clip it to your belt or backpack strap, snap it under the hood or drainpipe, or use it as a freestanding light just like you would a mini tripod. And, unlike a dedicated headlamp, you can illuminate a scene without blinding everyone you’re with. But if headlamps are your thing, Zeus Mini clips easily to any hat, beanie or headband.

Zeus Mini is waterproof to 33 feet (10 meters), rechargeable and features four levels of brightness reaching up to 200 lumens with an included diffuser that delivers a cool 5000K color temperature tuned for GoPro cameras when using Zeus Mini for filming. The built-in battery lasts for up to 6 hours. Plus, if you’re in a bind, there’s a strobe mode to enable emergency signaling and visibility.

Zeus Mini is so capable and convenient, it’s likely to become one of your most used go-to pieces of gear. And since it’s compatible with GoPro’s broad range of mounts, you’ll never run out of ways to put it to use. Zeus Mini is available on GoPro.com now in most global markets and will be available in the APAC region beginning May 27. Learn more about Zeus Mini at GoPro.com.

Lighting systems have changed dramatically in the past few years. Here’s an article on the evolution of tactical lights and wholesale changeover to the more efficient and rugged new generation of LEDs.
