The editors of GUNS & WEAPONS FOR LAW ENFORCEMENT (GWLE) have a keen eye for new products hitting the market.
Here’s a list of six new products that grabbed their attention in the October 2014 issue.
Offering the best of both worlds, the MTR Leather A-2 Holster is available for the new Glock 42 .380 pistol. The holster can be converted to work as either an inside-the-waistband (IWB) or outside-the-waistband (OWB) system by simply removing its holster clips. Made from the finest bull hide available, the holster’s mouth is reinforced for easier one-handed reholstering. The holster is also tuckable for enhanced concealment.

New from Suarez International is the Advanced AUG Forward Para Rail for this popular bullpup carbine. At only 4 ounces, the rail adds very little weight to the AUG, provides for numerous mounting points (high or low, left or right) for a variety of accessories, brings the support hand back closer to the receiver and allows the shooter to place his or her leading thumb away from the barrel and alongside the rail.

Reducing recoil in an AR allows for a more stable sight picture and faster follow-up shots. The stainless steel KynSHOT is a hydraulic recoil damper that replaces standard AR buffers. Available for several chamberings and stock configurations—even shotgun stocks—the KynSHOT is designed and made in the U.S.A. by people whose business is kinetic-energy management, and the company is committed to supporting shooters with the best equipment.
