As all true Operators know, The Beard is key to a successful mission, and like all equipment it needs maintaining to ensure proper function. Thankfully, Survival Tactical Services has you covered with their Beard Manager. The STS Stainless Steel Beard Manager is a heavy-duty comb laser cut from stainless steel. Measuring 5″ x 1.25″, the Beard Manager is roughly the size of a standard plastic comb for that familiar feel. Plus, like all top-tier equipment, it features a bottle opener.

Mountain Men, Lumberjacks, and Ironic Hipsters may also find use in the STS Stainless Steel Beard Manager.

The Norseman Cometh

February 24th, 2015

(null)

The Norseman Cometh. The first offering in the Agents of the Collapse Series. Sculpted by Mikkel Frandsen. Available as 1:9 and 1:35 scale figures with bases. Cast in Flesh and Grey resin.

To see forward in some situations you must look to the past. Or at least that was the words of a man known a Hrafn. At the twilight of the 21st century the world was in utter chaos. Between devastating natural disasters in the United States, Africa being over run with disease and famine, and the nuclear holocaust in Russia after the fall of the second Soviet empire. Europe stands alone crumbling with what resources and technology they have left. However one island nation formerly known as the United Kingdom still has resources and a sense of society. In relative isolation the inhabitants of this once proud nation struggle to rebuild and preserve the culture of modern man. Myths of the Norsemen of 723 were nothing but a some historical tale told to children. Until one day when ships appeared on the horizon of the Thames Estuary. Not the ships of modern man, but some wooden vessels of the past with the heads of dragons. This incident stuck fear into the heart of the surviving nation. Looting and pillaging began to occur up and down the english coast. This incident became known the second coming of the Norseman. This scourge will continue on as resources continue to dwindle in this once so called modern world.

The preorder will be in three stages for the 1/9th scale offering with the price going up every few months to the retail price. Initially if you get in on this it will be 99.00 USD with free shipping in the USA, It will go to 125.00USD at the 1st of March and 150.00usd in May. With a projected shipping date of July 2015

The 1/35 preorder will be 20.00USD till May with 25.00 after that. The finial retail will be 35.00 usd. Shipping will be Free in the USA

Now on Kickstarter – Draggin Bags

February 23rd, 2015

Now, on Kickstarter is Draggin Bags, the creation of SSD reader Garrett Lommatsch.

(null)

These bags are completely made in the USA, and are built out of 3″ military spec webbing instead of fabric. This makes them significantly tougher and more durable than any other bag on the market, perfect for hard use applications. As an EMT, Garrett wanted a better bag for my personal first aid kits, with a dash of engineering they became tougher than any adventure.

Browning’s Buck Mark Carries Crimson Trace Laser Sight

February 19th, 2015

(null)

(Wilsonville, OR)—While Browning Buck Mark pistols have been produced for several decades, and made available in many styles, the newest version introduced at the recent 2015 Shooting, Hunting and Outdoor Trade (SHOT) Show is a tactical Buck Mark .22 pistol equipped with a Crimson Trace Rail Master. The Browning Buck Mark Black Label Carbon Fiber has a unique carbon fiber finish, a 4-inch steel barrel and an under barrel accessory rail. The firearms are shipped with a red Crimson Trace Rail Master laser sight pre-installed on that rail.

“We are very pleased to have a laser sight pre-installed on such a high-quality Browning product,” said Jeff Goddard, Crimson Trace Director of Sales. The new Buck Mark Black Label Carbon Fiber features textured grip panels, a gold plated trigger, and detachable magazine. There is also a second model, the Buck Mark Black Label Carbon Fiber Pink, with unique pink grips. The equipped handguns can be seen at: www.browning.com.

Crimson Trace’s Rail Masters are well known for being small, powerful, easy to operate, and for producing a brilliant laser dot onto the target. Rail Masters have been available with red diodes, and are now available with green diodes—the affordable CMR-206. Rail Masters feature tap-on Instant Activation, provide three modes of operation (momentary, strobe and constant on) and can be easily and quickly attached to nearly any firearm’s rails with Crimson Trace’s proprietary Secure Lock Technology.

Crimson Trace laser sights and light products can also be found pre-installed on firearms from Kimber, Ruger, Smith & Wesson, Beretta and others.
