SureFire’s sound-, flash- and dust-killing “TSR” suppressors get wrung out on LMT7 .308 sureshots.
The LMT7 rifles were equipped with SureFire suppressors and adapters and functioned without incident during the intense three-day urban sniper training course.
If you’d have told me six months ago that I would be shooting a suppressed black rifle 30 minutes outside of Los Angeles, I’d have sent you for drug testing. Nonetheless, there I was lying under the bright sun and brilliant blue sky on the Angeles County Rifle Range deep in the People’s Republic of California.
SureFire has been the name in tactical illumination for some time, having just celebrated their 30th birthday. However, a fact that many TW readers might not be aware of is that SureFire is one of the leading producers of firearm sound suppressors, with many current military and law enforcement contracts including the United States Marine Corps.
The Suppressor Division of SureFire LLC manufactures sound suppressors for rifles, carbines, and machine-guns. Naturally they build the adapters (flash suppressor/muzzle brakes) necessary to mount their “cans.”
Total Reduction Signature
The addition of a suppressor gives the military shooter many advantages over his opponent. This is particularly true in and around buildings where gunfire noise is amplified.

FNH SPR Sord Combo
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。
For precision shooters, the operational challenge of getting a safe and accurate first-round shot grows increasingly complex as defense and law enforcement units are tasked with both expanded missions and an increased sensitivity towards liability. For snipers, success requires more than what one Army instructor referred to as “lying on your stomach and making an accurate shot.” Distances to multiple targets, shot angle—particularly in urban environments—as well as environmental factors all combine to impact ballistic performance and optics adjustment. TW combined the FN SPR rifle and Horus/Vectronix SORD ballistics and ranging system to test two of the industry’s newest precision shooting tools and learn if the combination was greater than the sum of its parts.
The System: The integration of weather, range, ballistics, optics and a precision firing platform. Clockwise from right: The FN SPR-A1 with Horus Falcon 5-20×50 scope with an H25 reticle, the Vectronix LRF, Horus ATragMX ballistics computer and the Kestrel 4500 pocket weather meter. The author ranges the target with the Vectronix LRF attached via cable to the ATragMX Ballistics Computer.
Special Police Rifle
FNH USA’s SPR (Special Police Rifle) series was designed with simplicity and reliability in mind. The SPR was awarded an FBI HRT (Hostage Rescue Team) contract in 2004, and according to FN, “The SPR A3 was selected after a 10,000-round endurance test with two rifles resulting in no parts breakage, misfires or malfunctions while exceeding the accuracy requirement of .50 MOA.” TW evaluated the SPR A1 for this article.
The SPR’s pre-’64 Winchester action features a claw extractor and the traditional CRF (controlled round feed) mechanics. While volumes have been written in the debate between CRF and “push feed actions,” the Mauser-inspired claw does reliably control the round via contact with the rim throughout the cycle (as opposed to the push feed which engages the rim only when the bolt handle is turned down and fully locked).

Starbucks Buycott

2A supporters start Buycott to battle the Starbucks Anti-Firearm Boycott
Across the nation today, a group called National Gun Victims Action Counsel begins their Valentine’s Day boycott of Starbucks Coffee to bring to light the corporation’s unwillingness to support a ban on customer’s carrying firearms into their stores. There’s some background on the group’s demands in this press release.
Well, if you haven’t heard, the 2nd Amendment crowd has taken notice. They are mobilizingby suggesting folks spend a couple bucks at Starbucks today to show their support for Starbuck’s decision to allow any law abiding, firearm-carrying citizens to shop and eat in Starbucks unhindered by corporate policy. The use of a $2 bill is encouraged because it depicts the founding fathers signing the Declaration of Independence, though I guess it would make more sense if they were signing the Constitution…

MKA1919 12 Gauge AR-15 Shotgun
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。
RAAC is importing the Akdal MKA 1919 12 gauge shotgun from Turkey. The shotgun closely resembles the AR-15, only a lot larger.
Because the BATFE only allow "sporting" shotguns to be imported, it is imported without any tacti-cool features. The lower receiver is polymer with the stock and pistol grip being part of the mould, much like the Cav Arms polymer AR-15 lower receivers.

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。
Built in collaboration with Advanced Armament Corporation, the new AAC Suppressor Ready pistol is one that you will cherish for a lifetime. This one is not just another pretty face in the crowd, but rather an all business gun that comes ready to use with or without an Advanced Armament Suppressor. A steel thread-protector comes standard to protect your barrel when the suppressor is not in use.
Available thru Nighthawk Custom, its Preferred Dealers or from Advanced Armament Corporation, this custom handgun is loaded with proprietary features. The first to catch your eye will be the lightening cuts on the top of the slide, mainspring housing and front strap that match the Advanced Armament M4-2000 suppressor. As you can see from the pictures, it makes for a very attractive firearm.
The slide sports new Heinie Ledge Straight-Eight Suppressor Sights which we are only available thru Nighthawk Custom. These sights are designed to give you a complete sight picture over the top of the suppressor. The distinct “ledge” rear sight allows you to cock the weapon off of a hard surface if needed.
Features include:
- Proprietary Lightening Cuts on the Front Strap, Mainspring Housing and Slide Top
- Forged Frame and Slide
- Nighthawk Custom Match-Grade Blacked-Out Threaded Barrel with Thread Protector
- Medium Length Lightweight Match-Grade Blacked-Out Trigger
