Weaver Kaspa Rifle Scopes at SHOT Show – Kaspa Hunting and Tactical Scopes!

Jan 30 • News, Videos • 3648

Trevor was able to get an interview with Weaver representative Tim Brandt at SHOT Show, and they discussed the Weaver Kaspa Series of Rifle Scopes.  These new scopes are available right now from OpticsPlanet, so be sure to check out all the different models, as there are a number of magnification options, with unique reticles as well to allow you to find the exact scope you need for your job.

As Tim and Trevor point out, you rarely see scopes of this quality with this many features for such an affordable price.  You don’t find this kind of value very often.  The lenses on the Kaspa Rifle Scopes are multi-coated, and the quality is consistent with Weaver’s other great scopes.  Seeing the wide variety and great prices of the new Weaver Scopes at SHOT Show was great, and we’re really excited to be seeing more of them this year!  Check out the video, and stay tuned.  I’ll have more videos from SHOT Show up soon!

BLACKHAWK Women’s Clothing Lines at SHOT Show – BLACKHAWK Tactical Clothes!

Jan 27 • News, Videos • 3984

I know all the ladies out there are going to be excited about our new BLACKHAWK SHOT Show Video!  In it, we talk with Aysha Webb at about great new tactical clothes that were designed from the ground up for use by women!

The BLACKHAWK Women’s Apparel Line has all the great features and functionality of other BLACKHAWK Apparel, but the style is much better suited to a woman’s figure.  They hope that the days of women being forced to wear smaller sizes of men’s clothing are behind us.  You can see in the video how nice everything looks, while still maintaining performance features such as extra thick belt loops for a heavy belt and holster.

The women’s off-duty pants are very comfortable while also being durable.  BLACKHAWK designed them to look great for a day in court or just casual wear, and they’re great for undercover use as well.  I think the undercover nature of many of these pants is huge.  Women who go undercover by want top performance might try to wear their traditional tactical pants, and they’ll stick out like a sore thumb.  These new pants really compliment a woman’s figure.

There’s also a great new BLACKHAWK women’s shirt that was designed for concealed carry.  It contours to a woman’s figure while not hugging so tight to the sides as to show the holster and gun.  Very cool, and they look great!

This is really a huge deal for many women.  Men’s clothing is designed for a man’s shape.  Just because the size is smaller doesn’t mean the pants or shirt will fit a woman.  In addition, having an ideal fit means there is less loose fabric, and they’ll give greater functional performance for women in the field.  As Aysha is a firearms instructor, she knows exactly what a woman needs to perform at her best.  There are a lot of really great features in these new BLACKHAWK Women’s Apparel Options.  Check out the BLACKHAWK SHOT Show Video for way more info and to see just how amazing these clothes look!

BLACKHAWK SERPA Holsters at SHOT Show 2012! BlackHawk Paddle and Belt Holsters!

Jan 27 • News, Videos • 5147

BLACKHAWK makes some of the toughest and most functional duty and tactical gear on the planet.  We knew they’d be bringing some great stuff to SHOT Show, and they did not disappoint.  The BLACKHAWK SHOT Show Video above is one of the most informative of our videos, because their representative Chuck Buis does an amazing job explaining the various holsters and what they can be used for.  Even seasoned hunters and shooters can learn from this video interview, and that’s awesome.

Of course, because this is BLACKHAWK, you’ll get to see the SERPA holster system.  This system allows you to make the same draw every time, with a wide variety of handguns.  As they are spring-loaded holsters, as soon as your gun is placed back in the holster, it is locked in.  These holsters are outstanding, which is why the US Marines have recently adopted them for use.  If they’re good enough for the Marines, I’d bet they’re good enough for you.

As Chuck and Trevor say, BLACKHAWK is about more than just SERPA.  They have great leather and nylon holsters for traditionalists and sport shooters.  They have concealed holsters that are both comfortable and easy to access.  Very interesting.

I’d rather you learn all the great info about BLACKHAWK holsters from Chuck and Trevor, as they’re better able to convey the amazing features on these great holsters!  Unfortunately, we don’t have any footage of Trevor doing cartwheels yet, but we’ll keep bugging him.  Maybe we’ll have a follow up video sometime!

New Fobus Holsters from SHOT Show – Fobus LC-9, Fobus Kel-Tec & More!

Jan 27 • News, Videos • 3215

This Fobus SHOT Show video interview shows off some of the new models from Fobus this year.  A number of great new holster options, from injected molded paddle holsters and tactical thigh rigs to MOLLE system holsters.

Trevor and Fobus’ Jerry Plum talk about the various models and how consistent they are, which is really important from one holster to another because of muscle memory.  You don’t want to train using one holster, switch to another, and find that your draw or re-holstering style has completely changed.  Very cool.  Very interesting.  And as Trevor points out, Fobus is a great company to work with.  We can always get the gear we need from them quickly and easily.  No hassles and great products?  It has to be Fobus.  Check out the video now!
