Frequently Asked Questions

What new water filtration system was featured?

The LIFESRAW Mission Water Filtration kit was showcased. It comes in 5L and 12L versions and includes straps for easy hanging, allowing users to purify water by attaching a LIFESRAW filter.

What are the key features of the JP Enterprises Mark III rails?

The JP Enterprises Mark III rails for AR-15s offer a textured grip, a robust lockup system with a clamping mechanism to prevent loosening, and are backwards compatible with standard JP rails. They are available in various lengths, including a 15-inch model.

What is unique about Bobro Engineering's backup iron sights?

Bobro Engineering's backup iron sights are extremely slim and low-profile, comparable in height to a few stacked quarters. They offer standard peep sights with windage adjustment on the rear and elevation adjustment on the front.

Who is the slide racker for, and what does it do?

The slide racker from TangoDown and Vicer Tactical is designed for the Glock 42. It replaces the back plate to provide an enlarged grip surface, making it easier to rack the slide, especially for those who find the slim slide difficult to manipulate.
