Live Free Arms (LF Arms) announced a pair of new magazine release buttons for the Smith & Wesson M&P line of pistols. Â One release is a standard length, while the second is an extended length release button.
The LF Arms release buttons are machined metal – not plastic – and have a Melonite finish. Â MSRP is $26.95 for either button. Â The buttons will fit all of the M&P pistols except the Shield and Bodyguard models.
The most interesting portable light on the market? Â Perhaps.
I’ve reviewed a lot of flashlights over the years, but the LuminAID is new to me. Â Essentially, it is an inflatable lantern that charges during the day using a small solar panel. Â When not in use, the lantern folds into a small package that keeps the panel exposed for charging. Â The battery takes a full charge with seven hours of full daylight exposure.
Lancer displayed their new L7 Advanced Warfighter Magazine (AWM) at the 2014 SHOT Show. The magazine is specifically designed as an upgraded magazine for semi-auto .308 caliber (7.62x51mm) rifles. The L7 AWM continues Lancer’s famous translucent options in polymer magazines.
Lancer believed that most .308 caliber polymer magazines were not strong enough to sustain repeated firing of the more powerful .30 caliber cartridges. To answer this concern, Lancer combined the lightweight benefit of polymer, with the hardness and durability of steel like their L5 AWM.
MaXbox is a development of Eagleye Hunting Gear. Made from high quality EVA closed cell foam, which is unbreakable and weather proof, the MaXbox provides shooters a stable rest platform for shooting from a variety of positions. Designed to provide the stability often not found when shooting outside of a range, the MaXbox offers shooters options for target, field, and even vehicle shooting.
In a move to expand their popular flip-up sights, Diamondhead has announced the addition of a new polymer line of spring-loaded flip-up sights. These sights will be modeled after the original metal Diamondhead line of flip-up sights, which have been very well received with their ability to quickly guide the shooter’s eye to center.
The new polymer sights are designed to work on all AR-15‘s with a Picatinny attachment rail, though they are not suitable for a gas block sight base to heat concerns. In addition to lighter weight, from the advanced polymer/composite construction, Diamondhead has incorporated NiteBrite photoluminescent inserts that can be illuminated with natural light or with a flashlight. This feature will be standard.
