Head On Tactical Shotgun Shell Pouch

By Richard on January 31, 2013 No Comments

Head Down Shotgun Pouch

I just stumbled across a small company called Head On Tactical that is making a variety of pouches, bags and carriers for all of your tactical needs.  They have a bunch of cool looking products in MultiCam, A-TACS, plus the more “pedestrian” coyote, black and Ranger green.

One of the products I think is really innovative is the Vessel Pursuit Shotgun Pouch they developed with the guys at MARSEC4.  The pouch compactly holds 24 shotgun shells and divides them up with color-coded pulls to more easily distinguish between two different rounds like slugs and buckshot.

HK45 Tactical

HK45 Tactical Suppressor

HK announced the introduction of the HK45 Tactical to the civilian market.  It looks like you will be able to get them in all sorts of tactical colors and with a threaded barrel.

Probably the oddest thing about this product announcement is that the HK45 Tactical is shown in a photograph with a “dummy” sound suppressor and is captioned “depiction of suppressor does not constitute endorsement.”  Huh?  Do they not endorse the use of eye protection either?

Ruger Mini-30 Tactical

By Richard on September 8, 2010 3 Comments

Ruger announced the new Mini Thirty Tactical rifle today.  Chambered in the 7.62×39 cartridge, the new Mini-30 has a 16 1/8″ barrel, synthetic stock, ghost ring sights, and flash suppressor.  The Tactical ships with one 20-round magazine.

Ruger machined scope bases into the receiver, and includes a set of scope rings.

Compared to the standard Mini Thirty, the Tactical has a barrel that is almost 2.5″ shorter.  Additionally, the barrel and receiver are a blued alloy steel instead of a matte stainless steel.  The ‘standard’ Mini Thirty rifles don’t have the flash suppressors that the Tactical does.

MSRP for the new Mini Thirty Tactical is $921, which is less than the $949-966 price tags on the other Mini Thirty variants.

And no, it is not California legal.

Thunder Forward Grip from EMA Tactical

By Richard on September 8, 2010 No Comments

EMA Tactical announced a new line of fore grips for AR-style rifles: the Thunder Forward Grips.

Currently there are two grips in the new EMA line, the full-sized TVG1 and the ‘shorty’ TVG. The shorter TVG allows the shooter to wrap three fingers around it, while providing a lower-profile appearance. The full-size TVG1 allows all four fingers to wrap around the grip, allowing greater control.

Both grips offer a sealed storage compartment, and EMA is rolling out the Thunder Forward Grips in black, tan, and OD green. The grips have a lifetime warranty. MSRP is $14.95 each.

CZ P-07 Tactical Prototype Pistol

By Richard on January 21, 2010 4 Comments

cz_p07_tan_01aAt the 2010 SHOT Show, CZ showed a concept pistol that the company may begin selling later this year.  The pistol is a tactical version of the P-07 Duty pistol that is, as yet, not named.

The pistol is chambered in 9mm, and will feature a threaded barrel for the addition of a sound suppressor.  Suppressed models will have elevated sights.  The new P-07 has a tan polymer frame, but other colors may be offered.

Right now, CZ anticipates the pistol would be available for widespread distribution in 2011.  However, the CZ rep I spoke with said certain dealers might receive a few of these guns in 2010 in a limited distribution effort.

The Taurus Judge Goes Tactical

By Richard on January 17, 2009 4 Comments

Taurus Judge Tactical

Playing off the success of earlier Judge revolvers, Taurus introduced the tactical Judge at the 2009 SHOT Show.  The Taurus 4510TKR-SSR and -BR offer a 3″ ported barrel Judge with a Picatinny rail for lasers and lights.

The new Judge chambers five .45 Colt cartridges or .410 (2.5″) shotshells.  Standard on both the blued and stainless models are the red fiber optic front sight, fixed rear notch, and the Taurus Ribber grips.

Taurus reps said “around $500″ for the retail price on this new Judge.
