New Patent Pending AST Fire Control Upgrade Kits for Sig Sauer P320

In an industry driven by passion and a fervent desire for safety and unbridled performance, Angled Spade Technologies (AST) is proud to unveil its groundbreaking product, The AST P320® Fire Control Upgrade Kit. There have long been questions surrounding unintended discharges experienced by users of the Sig Sauer® P320®, manual and non-manual safety handguns.

Both versions are currently patent pending.

The Sig Sauer® P320® has carved out a meaningful market share amongst the civilian, military, and law enforcement communities.

Davidson’s Exclusive HK MR762A1

PRESCOTT, Ariz. – Davidson’s, one of the nation’s top firearms, ammunition, optics, and accessories wholesalers, has collaborated with H&K to produce an exclusive variant of the venerable MR762A1 chambered, of course, in 7.62 NATO.

Like its 5.56 mm counterpart, the MR762A1 is a direct descendent of the HK416/417 series, only in a semi-automatic rifle configuration developed for civilian users. It is assembled in the USA using US and German-made components and uses many of the same parts and assemblies developed for the legendary HK416 and 417. The MR762A1 uses a proprietary HK short-stroke gas piston system. In the “closed” HK piston system, exhaust gasses never enter the receiver, which means the HK runs cooler, cleaner and more reliably.

The MR762A1 has a cold hammer forged 16.5” barrel made from the highest quality cannon-grade steel, producing a barrel that ensures superior accuracy, even after firing thousands of rounds. And while the material and cold hammer forging process themselves greatly enhance durability, HK’s processes include many additional steps not taken by other manufacturers to produce superior accuracy and service life, insuring performance well beyond “mil-spec.” Read more

Thermal vs Night Vision Explained

Chris Wisecarver, owner of Fusion Thermal, talks to writers about the Avenger 55XR battery system.

Q: What got you into the optics industry?

A: I got into the optics industry about 25 years ago after a friend lent me a pair of his Steiner 10x50mm military marine binoculars. I used it on a deer hunt, and it changed my life. It started a lifelong passion for optics and looking for perfection in optics as I’ve gone along in the last 25 years and just studied and learned and got into all the details that I could, and ultimately, here I am with our thermal brand, Fusion Thermal.

Q: Fusion Thermal is a new company. How did it start?

A: I had a supplier friend who started a company. He found a physicist in Europe who had a fascinating and unique spin on thermal technology, and they made a presentation to me primarily for me to be their customer. I liked seeing a lot of thermal experience and that he had something radically different. So I was intrigued, and I agreed to become their customer. Ultimately, six months later or so, I owned the company and, rebranded it Fusion Thermal and designed it to be more Americanized and more user-friendly.

Q: What advantages do thermal optics have over other night optic technologies like light-intensified optics or add-on lights?

A: Thermal is a new technology to many people; sometimes, they lump it into the same category as night vision. It’s night vision in the sense that you use it at night. But thermals can be used very effectively in the daytime. That’s one of its advantages over traditional night vision. Read more

CCRKBA: “Albuquerque Protesters Harmed Nobody, Burned Nothing”

BELLEVUE, WA – The country could take a lesson from the armed protesters who turned out in Albuquerque, N.M. this week in opposition to Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham’s unconstitutional suspension of Second Amendment rights under the guise of a “public health emergency.”

“Justifiably angry New Mexico gun owners who showed up at the protest didn’t hurt anyone, didn’t burn anything, did not clash with police and nobody was arrested or even cited,” noted CCRKBA Chairman Alan Gottlieb. “What a stark contrast to the violent ANTIFA demonstrations and urban rioting we have seen in recent years.

“Instead of setting fires”, he continued, “these gun owners set an example. They didn’t vandalize public or private property, did not engage in physical assaults or looting, and yet they are the people who are repeatedly penalized by left wing politicians, now to include Democrat Gov. Lujan Grisham, for crimes they did not commit, and would never consider committing.”

Crowd size estimates have varied between 100 and 200 citizens, and while at least one report said many of those in attendance were “heavily armed,” it was a peaceful protest during which the loudest noises were the comments from honest gun owners expressing their legitimate fury at an action by the governor that members of her own party are denouncing. Even New Mexico Attorney General Raul Torrez, himself a Democrat, has announced his office will not defend the governor or other state officials named as defendants in at least five federal civil rights lawsuits filed by several gun rights organizations and New Mexico residents. Municipal police and county sheriff’s departments will not enforce the governor’s order. Read more
