New Speed Loader for K-Frame Size Revolvers

From Zeta Industries

Zeta Industries is pleased to introduce a new and unique revolver speedloader designed specifically for 6-shot K-frame size revolvers. The new K-PAK™ is a low cost, polyurethane speedloader that arranges six rounds into two equal three-round arcs. Unlike traditional rigid speedloaders, K-PAK™ is narrow and flexible making it great for concealed pocket carry. This is the first K-frame size speedloader for the Zeta6™ brand, which includes a full line of J-frame speedloaders. www.zetasix.com

“The inspiration for this design was the moon clip, used since the early 20th century to quickly reload revolvers.”, says Michael Lyle, product designer. “We wanted to make the speedloader completely symmetrical, so the user would not have to think about orientation. For this reason, we pointed the two half-round moon clip patterns in opposite directions creating something that we call an offset strip speedloader.”

The K-PAK™ works perfectly with all Smith & Wesson 6-shot, K-frame revolvers chambered in 38SP/357. K-PAK™ also fits perfectly in the Kimber K6s, Taurus 856, and many Colt models including PPS, DS, Agent, and new King Cobra.

Zeta6™ K-PAK™ is available now on the zetasix.com website and at many gun stores. K-PAK™ is sold in 2-packs for $11.95.

Comp-Tac Holster Fits for the S&W M&P9 Shield EZ

From Comp-Tac

Comp-Tac recently added new Smith & Wesson® M&P® 9 Shield™ EZ® fits for the MTAC™, Infidel Max™, Warrior™, eV2™ and International™ holsters.

These five holsters rank among Comp-Tac’s most popular items. The brand periodically releases new holster fits throughout the year to accommodate more and more gun owners, and to match the ever-growing firearms market.

“Firearm manufacturers continue to expand their product lines with handguns that have additional features and options to fit a wide variety of customers, lifestyles and uses,” said Gordon Carrell, Comp-Tac general manager. “We at Comp-Tac believe in those same ideals and strive to match the varied number of handguns with an equal variation of holsters. Our many holster fits help to meet the needs of customers regardless of carry position, clothing options, lifestyle needs and more.”

The MTAC is a hybrid, inside-the-waistband (IWB) holster that works perfectly for customers who need to tuck their shirt in. The two mounting clips on the MTAC are located on the sides of the holster, allowing a shirt to be tucked in over the gun and holster, leaving only the clips to show for deep concealment.

The Infidel Max Holster is an all-Kydex® IWB holster designed to be worn behind the hip at the 4 o’clock or 5 o’clock positions. With an easy-on, easy-off single clip, this holster is a favorite for users who want the ability to put on their gun or take it off as their environment changes.

The Warrior Holster is an outside-the-waistband holster that was recently tested and recommended by the National Training Officers Association (NTOA). The all-Kydex, pancake design is excellent for concealed carry or general range use.

The eV2 Holster is an appendix inside-the-waistband holster designed for concealed carry. The eV2 includes the Comp-Tac Kick, a piece designed to help press the grip of the gun into the body for better concealment.

The International Holster is an all-Kydex holster with a modular mounting system that includes a belt mount, paddle mount and drop offset piece. The International has been the top holster used at the IDPA nationals for eight years in a row and is an excellent choice for those who want to participate in competitive shooting events or head to the range for some training time.

Crush Inclement Weather with Nomad’s Hailstorm Jacket and Pants

From Nomad Outdoor

From driving in snow and sleet to downpours of rain, nothing has the potential to cut a hunt short like inclement weather. Thanks to Nomad’s Hailstorm Jacket and Pant, hunters can extend their precious time afield while being completely shielded from the harshest elements.

Nomad’s Hailstorm Jacket and Pant both feature 100% polyester construction with a fully waterproof, breathable membrane and taped seams to handle the harshest downpours. At the same time, fully articulated knees, gusseted crotch and mechanical stretch shell fabric with DWR finish allow hunters ample range of motion when walking through the woods, glassing from steep ridges, or stalking a trophy animal. When your activity level increases and body heat is on the rise, pit zips and zippered leg openings help cool things down.


Available in Veil Cervidae camo, the Hailstorm Jacket and Pant serve as an excellent outer barrier for a multi-layer system for Western big game hunters. The jacket and pant feature YKK AquaGuard zippers to provide a constant moisture barrier, while adjustable wrist and ankle hem tabs deliver all-day comfort. Both the jacket and pants are designed with anatomical shaping that gives hunters the best in fit, comfort, and performance, especially in high-activity environments and severe weather conditions.



The built-in waist belt ensures the pants don’t slip when worn over several other layers, while the low profile of the clasp makes it comfortable to wear under a tightened backpack waist belt. A Cordura seat in the pants and drop back hem on the jacket provide additional abrasion resistance when you’re glassing from jagged rocks or steep mountainsides. At 32 oz., the jacket and pant are light enough to carry in your pack for those unexpected fall snows or thunderstorms.
