Gear We Love — January 2022

BG-AK BattleGrip

TangoDown’s industry-leading BattleGrip (pictured above) is now available in four colors: Dark Plum, Dark Burgundy, Black and Bakelite Orange. A comfortable replacement for a stock unit and an outstanding American-made “compliance part” for your next AK build, the BattleGrip is available both hollow and with a water-resistant internal storage compartment for batteries and spare parts at TangoDown.com.

MSRP: $26.22

 

Bore-Max Speed Brush

The Bore-Max Speed Brush has twice the bristle density of other brushes, and the Speed Jag and patch combination securely removes up to four times more carbon and copper than traditional brush-and-patch systems. They thread onto standard rifle and pistol cleaning rods, and you can order them in anything from .22 to .45 caliber at RealAvid.com.

MSRP: $9.99

 

N8 Tactical Executive

Known for years for its leather-padded IWB holsters, N8 Tactical has brought a new offering to the market: the Executive, a Kydex holster designed for kidney or appendix carry. It is available with a multitude of differing straps, clips and appendix retention offerings for dozens of pistols, and like everything else from N8, you can get it at N8Tactical.com.

MSRP: $49.95

 

 

 

 

CountyComm Oversize Folding Titanium Scalpel

It ain’t exactly a utility knife and it ain’t exactly a pocketknife. But whether you’re cutting target blanks into what you need for a specific drill or processing game, sometimes a scalpel with replaceable blades is the best tool for the job. This model weighs only 1.4 ounces, accepts standard “No. 60” refills and ships with eight replacement blades and a nylon carrying case. As with most titanium goodies, it is available through CountyComm.com.

MSRP: $49.95

 

Elite Survival Systems Four-Gun Pistol Pack

This low-key double-sided unit from Elite Survival Systems allows you to transport four pistols — as well as eye protection, cleaning kits, magazines and ammunition — no more conspicuously than a laptop. Two identical compartments, one on each side, make for an extremely appealing bag for either range or travel use. You can get yours at EliteSurvival.com.

 

MSRP: $89.95

 

 

 

 

Wolverine Magazine Extension

This American-made, all-aluminum Glock baseplate replacement adds five rounds to your G19 box and four to your G23. It ships with its own spring and installs without any tools other than the punch required to remove your OEM baseplate, but be sure to watch the installation Video at SwampFoxOptics.com before digging in.

MSRP: $39.99
