Largest Sheriff’s agency in the world upgrades to customized Remington pumps!

Serving an area greater than 12,308 square kilometers, with everything from gangster-infested rat holes south of downtown to celebrity-infested Malibu in the west, the 8,500 Deputies of the LASO know what it takes to get the job done no matter where it may take them. A proud organization that traces its roots back to the wild west of 1850s California, the LASO revels in its old school, hard-nosed mystique. It is not a place where change comes easy, but sometimes change is inevitable. By the turn of the century it became abundantly clear that the department’s Ithaca 37/87s needed to be replaced. As Ithaca was in and out of different ownership, parts were a problem and internal scavenging could only go so far. An influx of more than 600 guns (a gift from the LAPD, who had transitioned to the 870) helped delay the inevitable, but the writing was on the wall. By late 2007, the decision was made. LASO would go to the Remington. With any large department in any large county, the competition is fierce for contracts, especially a department that is surrounded by dozens of local municipalities that base their equipment selection on what the big kid on the block does. This time was no different. Several companies submitted T&E guns, but in the end, the modularity, ease of maintenance, ease of use, upgradeability and ruggedness won out and the 870 was selected above the other entries.
Pistol grips can make it difficult to access the 870 safety. It’s a training issue, not an equipment issue. Jeff Edmonds Photos
Because of the variety of missions that the LASO handles, it was recognized that multiple platforms would be needed for the department. The numbers in the LASO final purchase broke down to 3,000 units for patrol, 900 less-lethal units, and 300 special units set aside for the motor officers. For patrol, it was decided that the 870 would need some enhancements in order to make it more mission capable. The first thing was that the weapons for patrol would all need to be equipped with dedicated lights. LASO went with a dedicated SureFire unit. The addition of a weapon-mounted light vastly increased the deputies’ ability in the low-light environment, but it also added some logistical and training issues.
Notice how the XS Big Dot just jumps out and catches the eye. I found it to be extremely effective, especially at speed. Jeff Edmonds Photo

Kalashnikov Vodka
私たちのブログを訪問していただきありがとうございます。あなたがお持ちの場合DIYの要求は私達に電子メールを送信してください。
How about a Kalashnikov Vodka Bottle? For “only” USD 396.00 or EUR 300.00 you can call this very limited (13000 pieces) AK-45 Vodka bottle yours! Yes this is a little bit expensive for a bottle, but hey, it comes in a cool rifle case!
The AK 47 Kalashnikov Vodka Souvenir Bottle is a rare collectors item. It has only ever been produced once in the known history of vodka making and that has been by the Glasov Distillery, the only producer of the famous Kalashnikov Vodka.[1]

HK45 from KSC
私たちのブログを訪問していただきありがとうございます。あなたがお持ちの場合DIYの要求は私達に電子メールを送信してください。
The new Hekler &’ Koch HK45 ACP airsoft replica from KSC Japan.
Frame is ABS plastic, comes with one 29 round magazine. Using the System 7 developed by KSC for the GBBs. Chrono results range from 76-83m/s, which is average for KSC guns and and higher than Tokyo Marui's.
The box, comes in new silver instead of the usual blue from previous KSC guns.
In the box, the gun is inside a plastic bag. I am a little surprised on the discoloration of the magazine, but nothing major.
Comes with the large grip replacement for those with bigger hands, I have a small hand so the grip was just fine for me. It also comes with a tool for the grip replacement and of course the hop-up adjustment tool of KSC.
The left and right side view
The grip is nice to to the touch and feels right with my hands. Notice also the nice HK markings on the grip.
Another HK45 marking on the magazine bumper
The enlarge magazine release button which is nice considering that I am a lefty.
Very meticulous and accurate markings on the left and right side of the gun. The slide stop is also ambidextrous.
Safety lever on the left side, which is not ambidextrous which is a little bit disappointing, but real gun is not ambidextrous in that anyway.
Very visible white dots on the front and rear sight
Under rail for accessory attachment, flashlight, laser, etc.
Hopup can be adjusted by pulling the slide.
All in all, it is a nice gun. But since I am used to my guns with metal slides this one sounds so plastic to me. I would definitely buy this gun if the aftermarket metal slide comes out soon. But not yet, I can wait....
I am also waiting for the HK45 from Tokyo Marui. Then we will see which one.

AK Rail For Low Profile Optics
私たちのブログを訪問していただきありがとうございます。あなたがお持ちの場合DIYの要求は私達に電子メールを送信してください。
A nifty new sight rail from Strike Industries , one of my favorite accessory makers. It replaces the AK's rear leaf sight. Screws provide tension to prevent the rail from moving off zero.
The downside, of course, is that you no longer have a backup iron sight.
