The reinforced neoprene padding and TouchPoint fingertips come together to give you the most complete and functional tactical gloves available. Available in men’s sizes, the gloves are made with machine-washable goatskin palms and a mid-weight, snag-proof, stretch-woven material that offers the most precise fit.

STEINER EOPTICS SBAL-PL
New from Steiner’s eOptics division is the SBAL-PL, one of the most compact and lightweight pistol-mounted green laser and white flashlight combinations available today. The SBAL-PL combines a battlefield-proven green laser module with a new 500-lumen flashlight for rapid target acquisitions. The SBAL-PL’s low parallax allows the operator to minimize the differential between the point of aim and point of impact for increased accuracy at varying ranges. For maximum flexibility, the SBAL-PL allows the operator to either aim independently or aim and illuminate simultaneously, all with the quick tap of a button. The SBAL-PL is designed for quick mounting onto popular mid- to large-frame pistols with an integrated, adjustable butterfly mount.

6 of 6

HOGUE 15-DEGREE AR GRIP
Hogue’s new 15-Degree AR Grip is ergonomically engineered for comfort and convenience while being lightweight. Compared to the standard 30-degree angle for AR-15 grips, the 15-degree angle allows for a comfortable and more natural hand position when entering combat, especially in CQB situations. This grip also weighs a mere 2.3 ounces thanks to its G10 construction. Additionally, there is a recessed dish behind the trigger that heightens comfort and creates a smooth transition for the finger to the trigger. The new grips come in Smooth or Piranha Grip finishes, and are available in Solid Black, G-Mascus Red Lava, G-Mascus Dark Earth and G-Mascus Green.
