“The Hunt for The Red Dot” is not a spy thriller or block-buster movie, but an actual reaction when trying to aim a pistol and find the elusive red dot in the pistol optic! Don’t lose precious time trying to put the red dot on the target with EAA Corp’s new patent-pending Fast Acquisition Red Dot Optic (FAR-DOT) mounted on the Girsan MC9 Standard and MC9 Match pistols.

Literally, draw, aim, and shoot without losing time or the target. Three interchangeable backstraps come with the MC9’s to give the pistol a comfortable, custom grip for any size hand. A rail in front of the generous trigger guard offers an additional place for lights or lasers, increasing the versatility of the MC9 Optics pistol.

Featuring an intuitive rotating thumb switch, the Wedge provides two modes: 300 lumen Constant On mode, and 1,000-lumen momentary THRO (Temporarily Heightened Regulated Output) mode.

“With its unique ergonomic design, the Wedge sets a new standard for EDC pocket lights,” said Streamlight Vice President, Sales and Marketing, Michael F. Dineen. “It’s both slim and flat so that it can be carried comfortably, features a reversible pocket clip, and allows for full concealment in a pants pocket.

SENTRY Products Group

Next Gen AR-15 Mag

The SENTRY Hexmag Carbon Fiber AR-15 Mag uses a proprietary blend of Carbon Fibers for a stronger, lighter AR-15 magazine.

After the acquisition of the Hexmag brand in 2017, SENTRY Products Group set out to refine and expand their magazine and on gun accessory line. The most recent advancement is SENTRY’s Carbon Fiber AR-15 magazine, made from a proprietary carbon fiber composite blended with our Polyhex2 polymer, offering exceptional durability and consistent performance. While Hexmag’s polymer magazines are known for exceptional reliability and resiliency, the introduction of Carbon Fiber significantly increases the overall strength and rigidity which further enhances performance. An added benefit to the end-user is that Carbon Fiber reduces the total weight by 20 percent over the standard magazine.

As with all Hexmag products the new Carbon Fiber AR-15 Mag features the patented HEXTURE pattern for confident and positive grip, no matter the environmental conditions. With the industry’s first tool-less takedown design, the magazines can be easily cleaned and maintained. A heat-treated stainless-steel spring eliminates corrosion and resists fatigue even while loaded for long periods of time. Customization can be done through Hexmag’s True Riser system to create State compliant 10, 15, and 30-round configurations; and with the SENTRY HexID color identification system, the user can quickly identify caliber and ammo type through the coded safety system featuring high visibility followers and latch plate.

Available in black with an MSRP of $21.99 you can find this product through Midway, RSR, and the SENTRY website.
