Remington Upgrades M-24 Rifle with Leupold ER/T Scope

Remington’s latest upgrade of its Sniper Weapon System for the U.S. Army, the M-24E1, includes a new Leupold Mark 4 6.5-20x50mm Extended Range/Tactical (ER/T) M5 Locking Adjustment riflescope. Specially designed and built with the military sniper in mind, the scope has an auto-locking elevation adjustment. This feature ensures rock-solid reticle adjustment is maintained during rough going and stressful conditions on the battlefield. Other key features of the new ER/T include M5 windage and elevation adjustment dials with audible, tactile 1/10 (0.1) milliradian clicks to match the range-estimating, mil-based Horus reticle options. An elevation zero-stop helps prevent under-rotation in high-stress situations. With the battle-proven Horus H27 or H58 reticle in the front focal plane, the scope offers the versatility of a variable magnification optic and the ability to accurately range at all magnification settings (the reticle magnifies with the image). Leupold’s Xtended Twilight Lens System delivers an exceptionally clear, bright sight picture for outstanding target discrimination at all powers and in a wide range of lighting and environmental conditions. A lockable fast-focus eyepiece makes reticle focus simple to achieve and maintain. Other key features include side focus parallax adjustment for fast, easy parallax focusing from 75 yards to infinity, from any shooting position. The Mark 4 6.5-20x50mm ER/T M5 Locking Adjustment riflescope is waterproof, fog proof and shock proof.

New HK Super Long Low Profile Scope Mount from MFI

MFI has just introduced a new 14 inch long optics rail mount for the HK 91/G-3 series of weapons. The new mount was developed as a direct response to requests by the U.S. Military for a longer scope mount that will fit uniformly all HK 91/G-3 variants including the HK 21 (some modification may be required). In fact these new mounts are in the supply chains for all theaters of combat operations including Iraq and Afghanistan as well as law enforcement, SWAT teams and private military contractors throughout the world. This sleek design allows extended length for any of the HK guns in 7.62×51/.308 guns. There is plenty of room for a full size sniper scope and a PVS-22, which is slightly longer than the new PVS-24. Used in conjunction with MFI’s 30mm Tall Sniper rings or their 30mm Cantilever Scope Ring the new mount is a perfect match for the PVS-22 Night Vision height, which is also standard Mil-Spec height for all night vision optics that are to be used with and in front of regular daylight rifle scopes. Unlike competitors’ mounts, the new MFI mount takes less than 5 minutes to mount on the weapon. HK ejection port buffers or any device that rolls over the top of the gun’s receiver in the same location where the mount fits cannot be used along with the new mounts. The MFI Low Profile mount lies on the top of the receiver with near zero clearance. The mounts are made from 6061 T-6 aircraft grade aluminum with hardened steel legs and hooks. They are hard anodized flat black, weigh only 7 ounces and are 100% Picatinny/Mil-Spec 1913 correct. These low profile mounts are made so that they do not interfere with the iron sights when the scope is removed. The mounts are the real deal and made for live weapons. MFI now also has extended low profile mounts for the HK 33, HK 53 and the HK MP-5. For more information please contact them at MFI LLC, Dept. SAR, 2215 Via Dulcea, Fallbrook, CA 92028.

Introducing one of Arsenal, Inc.’s latest accomplishments, the 5 and 10-round 100% U.S, made magazines for 7.62×39 AK rifles.

Pelican Deploys the 9440 Remote Area Lighting System

Pelican Products has announced that their Advanced Area Lighting Group has rolled out the 9440 Remote Area Lighting System (RALS), as an incredibly bright and extremely portable area light. The 9440 RALS features 10 next-generation LEDs and a beam spread of 120 degrees that effectively lights a large area. Additionally, it offers two brightness settings that shine 2,400 lumens for 3 hours in high-setting and 1,200 for 6 hours in low. The light is powered by the latest, maintenance-free, nickel metal hydride rechargeable battery. As a result, it runs silent and has no power cord which eliminates trip-hazards and emits no toxic fumes like bulky inefficient gasoline-powered lights. Setting up in seconds, and weighing in at a mere 16 lbs., the 9440 RALS is built with a streamlined, self-deploying tripod for easy site placement and a nylon shoulder strap for simple transport. The 9440 RALS also features a telescoping light tower which extends more than 7 feet and a light array that articulates 90 degrees.
