<p><strong>Ultimate Equipment Introduces Their M1911 Folding Knife</strong></p>


<div class="wp-block-image">
<figure class="aligncenter size-full"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="700" height="520" src="https://smallarmsreview.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/001-55.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-30349" srcset="https://smallarmsreview.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/001-55.jpg 700w, https://smallarmsreview.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/001-55-300x223.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px" /></figure>
</div>


<p>For the past 100 years, the Model 1911 pistol has been trusted for its durability, simplicity and reliability. Using these tried and true principles, Ultimate Equipment is proud to introduce the M1911 Folding Knife.</p>



<p>The M1911 Folding Knife by Ultimate Equipment captures the spirit of the classic Model 1911 firearm. By using military standard grips, this knife delivers an authentic touch and feel of the M1911 pistol in your hands. It is sturdy, durable, and most of all reliable. Every M1911 Folding Knife is manufactured with standard 1911 pistol bushings, grip screws and grip panels. As a result, grips from the knife and those from your 1911 pistol are interchangeable.</p>



<p>Forged in American CPM S30V stainless steel, the M1911 knife is one tough tool. Ultimate Equipment’s workshop skillfully heat-treats and hardens the blade to HRC 59-61 rating providing wear and corrosion resistance second to none. The modern Particle Metallurgy process also creates a very refined grain microstructure with evenly dispersed Vanadium Carbides allowing the steel to take a fine consistent edge that stays razor sharp for a much longer time. The M1911 Folding Knife is also offered with a more affordable 440C stainless steel blade.</p>



<p>Ultimate Equipment has also added the innovative patent pending “Hammerhead Lock” to the M1911 knife. Being an ergonomically designed and ambidextrous locking mechanism, it enables smooth one-hand operation, while at the same time providing the most rock solid structure for a folding knife.</p>



<p>The knife comes in an attractive box that includes the knife with the blade and grips of your choice, a hex key for grip removal, left and right pocket carry clips and a sheath to carry the knife on your belt.</p>



<p>The M1911 Folding Knife can be ordered with the blade made of 440C or CPM S30V steel with Mahogany (Rosewood) or Ebony (Blackwood) grips. The M1911 folding knife with 440C steel blade has a MSRP of $99 with the Mahogany grips and $115 with the Ebony grips. The M1911 Folding Knife with the CPM S30V steel blade has an MSRP of $139 with the Mahogany grips and $155 with the Ebony grips.</p>

</div>


<p>SIG Sauer, Inc., the leading manufacturer of commercial, law enforcement, and military firearms, has introduced the P522, a pistol version of the SIG522 rifle. The P522 brings the look, feel and excitement of the widely popular P556 Pistol to the rimfire community in a .22 LR blowback, semiautomatic package with a 10-inch barrel. The P522 pistol features a lightweight polymer lower receiver with ergonomic pistol grip, ambidextrous safety lever and ambidextrous magazine catch. The upper receiver is machined from 7075-T6 aircraft grade aluminum and given a black hard coat anodize for durability. The upper receiver features an integrated M1913 Picatinny rail for mounting a wide range of accessories. The P522 features two sling attachment points and has a built-in storage compartment hidden beneath the realistic looking “gas valve.” The 10 inch barrel features a standard 1/2x28TPI thread for industry standard flash hiders and sound suppression devices. An A1 type flash suppressor is standard. Available in two models, one is the SWAT version and features an alloy quad-rail forearm for attaching lights, lasers and other tactical accessories while the standard model utilizes a Swiss-type polymer hand guard for the clean retro look of the SG 550: the rifle that created the worldwide demand for precision Swiss arms. The P522 is shipped in a hard carry case with one 25-round magazine. Ten-round magazines are also available. The P522 SWAT has an MSRP of $643. The standard P522 model, with a Swiss-type polymer hand guard, carries an MSRP of $572. For more information contact SIG Sauer, Inc., Dept. SAR, 18 Industrial Drive, Exeter, NH 03833.

<p><strong>New .223 62 Grain TSX Load from Black Hills Ammunition</strong></p>


<div class="wp-block-image">
<figure class="aligncenter size-full"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="607" height="700" src="https://smallarmsreview.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/004-47.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-30352" srcset="https://smallarmsreview.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/004-47.jpg 607w, https://smallarmsreview.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/004-47-260x300.jpg 260w" sizes="(max-width: 607px) 100vw, 607px" /></figure>
</div>


<p>Black Hills Ammunition has added a .223 load featuring the 62 grain Barnes TSX bullet. This new load joins the extensive Black Hills lineup of .223s which includes the 55 grain TSX added in 2009. The Barnes .223 TSX bullets are designed for high weight retention (typically 100%). This ammunition provides incredibly effective terminal performance. The projectile opens up immediately upon impact to over .45 caliber diameter but still penetrates deeply (approximately 20 inches in ballistic gelatin. Velocity is 3,100 fps from a 24-inch barrel or 3,000 fps from a 20-inch barrel. The 62 grain bullet works well with twist rates of 1 in 7, 1 in 8 or 1 in 9 inch barrels making it suitable for currently made semiautomatic rifles in this caliber. This is the optimum .223 load for use in hunting, self defense or police patrol rifle use where a hard hitting, but deep penetrating bullet is desired. This load is the optimum for police situations requiring a “Barrier Blind” projectile for maintaining effectiveness through intermediate barriers. This ammunition line is available in the Black Hills “New Ammunition” line and is not available as remanufactured ammunition.

<p>Taurus has just unveiled their revolutionary new Judge Public Defender Polymer. This scaled down model of everyone’s favorite combo gun, the Taurus Judge, still gives the ability to fire the shooters choice of both .410 and .45 Colt ammunition &#8211; now in a size that fits in most pockets &#8211; also in a lighter, polymer body frame with new updates for improved handling and accuracy. Just like its big brother, this little gun delivers amazing versatility and devastating firepower for self-protection. New features include an adjustable rear sight, body styling that conforms to the shooters grip for secure hold and a new target style hammer and trigger. The Public Defender Polymer is available in blued or stainless steel finishes and weighs only 27 ounces. Capable of chambering both 2.5 inch .410 shotgun shells and .45 Colt ammunition, this amazing 5-shot combo gun is ideal for short distances &#8211; where most altercations occur &#8211; or longer distances with the .45 LC ammunition. The rifling has been finely tuned on this small frame revolver to spread the shot pattern at close quarters or to guide the bullet to the target.

Additionally, like all Taurus handguns, the unique Taurus Security System allows users to securely lock the gun using an inconspicuous key-lock. Contact them at Taurus USA, Inc., Dept.

<p><strong>New Tactical Muzzle Brake from Brownells</strong></p>



<p>Brownells new 1/2”-28 thread, .22 caliber, Tactical Muzzle Brake solves a very real problem for shooters using the AR-15. No one associates the .223 with crushing recoil but any muzzle rise affects the second shot of a double tap; a standard occurrence in 3-Gun and multi-gun matches or when follow up shots are required on varmints. The new Tactical Muzzle Brake features 16 oblong ports plus an expansion chamber for lots of “wall” area for powder gases to act against. All that surface area helps reduce recoil and muzzle rise to reduce sight recovery time between shots. The Tactical Muzzle Brake is machined from solid 4140 carbon steel bar stock and hardened to Rc 38-42 to resist blast erosion. The finish is a long-wearing, matte, black oxide that blends well with most barrels. With ports all around, indexing is not needed making installation easy. Brownells is the world’s largest supplier of firearm parts, gunsmithing tools, equipment and accessories. Stocking more than 30,000 items, the company supplies armorers, gunsmiths, and shooters worldwide. All of their products are backed by a 100% satisfaction, unconditional, lifetime guarantee. To order, or for more information, please contact them at Brownell’s Inc., Dept. SAR, 200 Front Street, Montezuma, Iowa 50171. Phone: (641) 623-5401. Fax: (641) 623-3896.

<p><strong>New “Front Mount” Night Vision from NIVISYS Industries</strong></p>



<p>NIVISYS Industries announces a Gen. III day to night-vision conversion system that accurately works at real world tactical speed. NIVISYS Industries now has a new state-of-the-art clip-on night vision unit. Known by model number NSV-80 the new unit simply, quickly and accurately clips onto the 1913 Picatinny rail in front of a telescopic sight to turn a daylight system into a night fighting system. Additionally, the NSV-80 (night vision sight) does not require operators to have error prone, separate night and day zeros on their telescopic sights. The NSV-80 simply mounts in front of most telescopic sights via a quick-detach Picatinny compatible clip on mount. While not always required, the NSV-80 also features a rear rubber seal (Litegard) that fits between the scope’s objective lens (or sunshade) and the NSV-80 to eliminate or limit peripheral light. The NSV-80 internal optics makes an accurate full-field view possible even if it is not in alignment with the telescopic sight’s objective lens. In other words, if the reticle is in view, the NSV-80 reticle is still on target without further adjustment. No need for potential zeroing errors when converting from day to night operations. NIVISYS’ NSV-80 provides a clear and precise parallax-proof conversion from day optics to dark time without any scope adjustments. The optics system and housing of the NSV-80 is made by Zeiss Optics. Then the unit is sent to the folks at NIVISYS where their superior-quality generation III electronics and intensifier tube are installed. The unit is so ergonomically friendly that it can be mounted and operated in total darkness (no need for any red flashlights, etc.) and even with the operator wearing gloves. Simply clip on and turn on. The NSV-80 is 1X and operates on two standard AA batteries. For more information contact NIVISYS Industries LLC, Dept. SAR, 400 South Clark Drive, Suite 105, Tempe, AZ 85281. Phone: (480) 970-3222. Fax: (480) 970-3555.

<p><strong>Sentry Solutions Armorers Kit</strong></p>



<p>Sentry Solutions, Ltd., the dry lubrication leader in the military, law enforcement, firearms, and outdoor sporting markets has combined the essentials in oil-free lubrication for firearms and sporting equipment in one convenient and affordable kit. Sentry Solutions’ Armorer’s Kit contains Smooth-Kote, BP2000 Powder, Hi-Slip Grease and Tuf-Cloth to treat 30 or more firearms or loads of sporting gear, plus applicators, gloves, instructions and more. The kit provides users with the latest in dry lubrication technology that enhances ballistic performance of firearms as it cleans and protects. Sentry Solutions products use graphite, molybdenum disulphide and proprietary lubricants in their products that smooth and protect metal surfaces at the microscopic level thus preventing gear from becoming the dust magnets as seen with oil products. Smooth-Kote is a self-cleaning dry lubrication that gives gun metal a grime-reducing, non-stick coating so dirt, residue, and fouling are easily brushed away. Besides protecting the bore from fouling, Smooth-Kote in gun trigger mechanisms smoothes the trigger pull and enhances accuracy and performance in handguns, shotguns, rifles and muzzleloaders. BP2000 Powder is applied by rubbing into the metal surfaces where it works microscopically. Used by military marksmen for barrel break-ins and conditioning, it decreases the number of rounds required to season a rifle barrel. Hi-Slip Grease is a synthetic blend containing the finest micro-bonding lubricants available today. The grease is a thin film that prevents galling and corrosion of all metals including titanium, stainless steel and aluminum under high loads and extreme conditions. The Sentry Solution Tuf-Cloth is a 12 x 12 inch lint-free cloth impregnated with a water displacing micro-bonding agent that provides a dry shield against rust, friction and wear. It is the choice for our military forces currently serving in Iraq and Afghanistan. The Armorer’s Kit comes complete with cleaning accessories such as gloves, cotton-tipped applicators, pipe cleaners, application brushes, patches, alcohol pads and detailed instructions. Sentry Solutions’ Armorer’s Kit retails for $39.95. For more information you can contact them at Sentry Solutions Limited, Dept. SAR, P.O. Box 214, Wilton, NH 03086. Phone: (603) 654-3001.

<p><strong>Crimson Trace Introduces New LaserGrips for the Ruger LCP</strong></p>



<p>Crimson Trace has just introduced its new LaserGrips for the popular Ruger LCP compact pistol. The Model-431 further cements Crimson Trace’s move into the sub-compact market of polymer-frame concealable handguns. The Model LG-431 adds very little mass to the already compact package of the Ruger LCP allowing the pistol to fit into most holsters. It attaches directly and securely to the trigger guard of the polymer frame using two screws that add to the overall stability of the unit. The LaserGrips clamp to the outside of the trigger guard while hugging the frame as it nears the front of the pistol. With the laser diode housing directly under the barrel, it allows the laser to be closer to the bore of the gun creating a very accurate laser sighting device. It is instinctively activated by a pressure switch built into the front underside of the polymer LaserGrips. Simply grasping the firearm in a normal shooting grip activates the laser. All electrical components fit into the LaserGrips and are ergonomically designed for comfort. The Model LG-431 uses either two #357 silver oxide batteries or a single 1/3N 3 volt lithium battery. These small batteries allow the LaserGrips to be unobtrusive yet powerful enough to provide the brightness that Crimson Trace customers expect. Another feature of the LG-431 is that it uses the smaller 3.3mm diameter laser diode versus the standard 5.6 diameter diode that is found in most all other brands of laser sighting devices. This reduces the overall size of the laser diode housing. As with all other LaserGrips, the LG-431 has both windage and elevation adjustments for shooters to adjust the laser on their own. All LaserGrips come with an accessory pack that contains batteries, hex wrenches for laser adjustment, a cleaning cloth and several cleaning swabs. A three-year warranty is standard.

<p><strong>Trijicon Unveils New AccuPoint Riflescopes</strong></p>



<p>Hunters and serious shooters the world over have asked for it, and Trijicon, Inc. has delivered the first series of Trijicon AccuPoint riflescopes to combine the company’s advanced, self-luminous aiming technologies and superb clarity with the added precision of the hunting industry’s most popular reticle &#8211; a crosshair. The new Trijicon AccuPoint with an illuminated crosshair reticle does not require batteries for operation eliminating the need for extra batteries and potential for failure during a critical moment in the field. The new Trijicon AccuPoint riflescope series is designed to deliver accurate, effective aiming under even the most challenging conditions. Trijicon’s exclusive battery-free tritium technology provides precise amber illumination where the crosshairs intersect for effective aiming and optimum target clarity, regardless of available light. The new series of Trijicon AccuPoint riflescopes with a crosshair reticle also features Trijicon’s newly updated Manual Brightness Adjustment Override, which allows the user to shade the tritium and fiber-optics during daylight for the option of decreasing the brightness of the illuminated reticle during increased light situations. In addition to this new illuminated crosshair reticle, Trijicon will continue to offer the original triangle reticle design, which has the additional benefit of the Bindon Aiming Concept (BAC), allowing the shooter to keep both eyes open while tracking, taking aim, and shooting. These new models are loaded with advanced optical elements like multi-layer coated lenses for superior light transmission with no distortion offering exceptional clarity and precision. Additionally, a quick-focus eyepiece, long eye relief, and precise windage and elevation adjustments make the Trijicon AccuPoint easy to zero and quickly make in-the-field adjustments. Each weather-resistant, nitrogen-filled scope body is carefully crafted from aircraft quality, hard anodized aluminum for superior performance and durability. Trijicon’s black matte finish reduces glare to help conceal the shooter’s presence for wary game. For more information, please contact Trijicon, Dept. SAR, 49385 Shafer Ave., Wixom, MI 48393.

<p><strong>DoubleStar Now Has New Dovetail Angle Mount for AR-15/M16</strong></p>



<p>DoubleStar Corp. has announced the development of a new dovetail angle mount for the AR-15 rifle. The new angle mount is made from 6061 T-6 aluminum and hard-coat anodized to military specifications. It still allows use of the rear sight and works well for attaching scopes, lasers, lights or other accessories at a 45-degree angle. The angle mount clamps onto a flat-top upper and can be mounted on either the left or right side and is securely held in place with three socket-head screws and a clamp. This new angle mount uses two mounting screws for a secure lock as compared to most mounts on the market that use only one screw and are prone to movement. DoubleStar’s U.S. made angle mount retails for $24.95. For more information on this as well as an extensive line of other firearms accessories please contact DoubleStar/J&amp;T Distributing, Dept. SAR, P.O. Box 430, Winchester, KY 40391. Phone: (859) 745-1757. Fax: (859) 745-4638.

<p><strong>New Picatinny Rail for Ruger Mark II and Mark III pistols</strong></p>

Buyers can select either a pre-installed TL rear adjustable sight or a no-sight option. For more information, please contact Volquartsen Custom, Dept. SAR, P.O.

<p><strong>BUFFER TECHNOLOGIES M-4/CAR-15 EXTRACTOR UPGRADE KIT</strong></p>



<p>Providing more than four times the extraction force of the standard parts, the Buffer Technologies upgrade kit offers AR-15/M16 users a way to ensure a more positive functioning rifle. This upgrade provides a particularly important improvement for the M-4/CAR-15 series of short barreled rifles, with the higher port pressures and more violent extraction common to these weapons. The upgrade consists of an improved spring, plunger and O-ring, which can be easily installed in minutes. It assures reliable extraction even when the chamber becomes heavily fouled after extensive shooting, or when used with ammunition that is less than optimally matched to the rifle’s port-pressure requirements. Buffer Technologies is a Missouri-based manufacturer and distributor of tactical weapon accessories for military, law enforcement and shooting sports. Its signature products include patented recoil buffers for automatic pistols and rifles as well as the MagCinch dual-magazine system. For more about this new product as well as their entire line, please contact them at Buffer Technologies, Dept. SAR, P.O. Box 105047, Jefferson City, MO 65110. Phone: (877) 628-3337. Fax: (573) 634-8522. Their website is www.buffertech.com.</p>

<p><strong>NEW BELT LOADER FOR 1919A4 BMG AND VARIANTS</strong></p>



<p>JJ Custom LLC has just introduced a new single stage belt loader for the Browning M1917, M1919 and its variants. The new loader is very well made from steel with a parkarized finish to match most guns. It features star wheels with a hand rotated knob that indexes the belt for each new round. The rounds are initially placed in the belt by hand and then pushed into the belt with a toggle clamp/ram. Then the star wheels are indexed to the next position to load another round. It takes longer to describe it than to do it. It loads .308/7.62 NATO, .30-06 or 8mm cartridges in cloth belts for the 1917/1919/M37 series of guns. The new loader is designed to be completely ambidextrous and features 1/4 inch mounting holes in the base so it can be mounted firmly to a loading bench or portable loading base. While it is single stage, meaning it loads a single round at a time, it is fairly fast and can load a 100-round belt in about 20 minutes or less with practice. It sure saves blisters on your fingers trying to load a belt by hand and it doesn’t cost between $1,000 and $1,200 like most of the old original military loaders are bringing today. This loader even features oil holes so you can keep it running smoothly. The new JJ Custom loader retails for $315. For more information, please contact JJ Custom LLC, Dept. SAR, 2400 State Route 48, Houston, OH 45333. Phone: (937) 295-5255. They can be found on the web at www.jjcustom.net. Be sure and ask them about their other products for the 1919 series of guns.</p>

<p><strong>NEW HOLSTER FROM ELITE SURVIVAL SYSTEMS ACCOMMODATES LIGHT</strong></p>

This versatile holster was designed with adjustment points that allow the gun to fit with or without the light attached. It is constructed of 1000 denier nylon inside and out, with an internal stiffener which holds the holster’s shape. The weapon is secured with an adjustable thumb-break retention strap and Velcro over-strap for added security. It also has a spare magazine pouch with an adjustable flap for secure fit. The 7680 is available in two sizes to fit most full-size pistols with lights attached. It is offered in several configurations for use with a belt or with Elite modular vests and packs. It is also available in a tactical thigh version. As with all Elite products, attention to detail and quality of materials make the 7680 an ideal solution.
