PRIMARY ARMS OPTICS

GLx Microdot Riser Mounts

Primary Arms Optics announced the release of its new GLx Microdot Riser Mounts. GLx products bring premium technology and materials into an approachable price point, and these mounts stand out with exceptional material quality and engineering at an affordable value. Out of the box, GLx mounts come with an added spacer, providing the user two separate mounting heights (1.41/1.535 and 1.64/1.765) to match their preference.

The durable 6061-T6 aluminum main body and keeper are enhanced by two sets of oversized, hardened-steel hardware, featuring a black zinc phosphate coating for added resistance to corrosion. In addition to the cross bolts which act as recoil lugs, the mount base also includes a machined recoil lug to retain zero through repeated impact. When torqued to 55-65in-lbs the cross bolts provide over 3800lbs of clamping force ensuring zero retention through even the harshest abuse.

Both absolute and lower 1/3 co-witness models are priced at $49.99, making them a great choice on any budget.

Lil’ Native G-10 SLIPIT Knife

Spyderco’s remarkable SLIPIT family of knives combines the advantages of clip-carry and easy one-handed opening with the broad legal acceptance of the non-locking folder. One of the newest members of this unique breed is the Lil’ Native SLIPIT, which replaces the Compression Lock and back lock of the original model with Spyderco’s “notched-joint” mechanism. An enhanced version of a traditional slipjoint, this mechanism uses spring pressure to hold the knife’s full-flat-ground CPM S30V blade open but does not lock it. Peel-ply-textured G-10 scales ensure a non-slip grip, and a broad-based, four-position clip offers ambidextrous tip-up or tip-down carry.
