Sig Sauer 1911 Tactical Ops
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。
Swiss twist on a classic design with features that today’s SWAT officers demand!
Sig Sauer’s 1911 Tactical Operations pistol is as reliable as it is versatile, shown here with a SureFire X400.
The most enduring design of John Browning remains the 1911 pistol. In fact, a good argument can be made that the 1911 is the most timeless handgun of all time. Taking that position one step further, you would be very hard-pressed to come up with another technological innovation introduced 100 years ago that remains on the cutting edge today. For the better part of the 20th century, commercially made 1911s were only available from a single source. That has all changed and 1911 pistols are now available from a number of manufacturers. However, quality varies tremendously and in the end you’ll get exactly what you paid for.
A few years ago, Sig Sauer introduced a line of 1911 pistols, a move that took many of us by surprise. After all, Sig Sauer was turning out some first rate DA pistols. Why make a move into unknown territory? Why not? If this firm could turn out a world class DA pistol, they just might be able to apply that expertise to the most popular self-loading pistol of all time.
Ambi safety is standard on the Sig Tactical Operations pistol.
Recently, I was able to check out a Sig Sauer 1911 Tactical Operations pistol chambered in .45 ACP. The Tactical Operations pistol is a full-size, all-steel 1911 pistol that has everything you need and nothing you don’t. As its name implies, this heavy-duty pistol is designed for the SWAT officer, but would also be a solid choice for patrol or personal defense.
Like all Sig Sauer 1911 pistols, the Tactical Operations embodies the classic qualities of the Browning original along with modern innovation.

JP Enterprises PSC-11
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 and bred for battle—high-end match-grade combat rifle!
With a reputation like JP Enterprises’, the PSC-11 lives up to its predecessors’ ability for first-shot accuracy, and it definitely has the ability to pile bullets into tight groups when it runs hot, too.
When I first held JP Enterprises’ new PSC-11 rifle in my hands last year, my first thought was that somebody left one of their JPE CTR-02s and an LRP-07 in a dark corner of the shop, put on some mood music and let nature take its course. In reality, John Paul, the owner of JP Enterprises, listened to requests from shooters who wanted a high-quality, accurate AR upper to fit their lower receivers. It wasn’t too much of a stretch to take the best features of the LRP-07 and blend them with a CTR-02 to create the new rifle.
This JPE PSC-11 is tricked out with a 4.5-14x Leupold Mark 4, Accu-Shot’s high-grade monopod, Atlas bipod, and Magpul’s PRS buttstock, adjustable grip and magazine. The rifle’s .223 Wylde chambering lies between the .223 and 5.56mm NATO dimensions, boosting versatility.
“With the introduction of our new SCR-11 platform, we knew serious shooters would want to incorporate the JP side-charge system into their existing small-frame gas gun,” John Paul said. “That’s why we are introduced the new PSC-11 in 2011. This upper combines all the great features and performance of the new SCR-11 in a package that is cross-compatible with any standard lower receiver on the market. This new upper system is designed for the all-out tactical market with redundant side and top charging systems, dust cover, forward assist and an optional key-slot gas plug for those running suppressed systems.”
Shoulder-mounted charging is quick and easy with JPE’s side-charge system, but if you’re a traditionalist, it still has a standard AR charging handle.

Remington M40-XS .338 Lapua Magnum
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。
Precision performance for the LE Designated Marksman with devastating punch!
Remington 40-XS in .338 Lapua bridges the gap between .308 and .50 BMG in a state of the art bolt action rifle that delivers the goods in terms of both accuracy and terminal ballistics.
THE .338 Lapua Mag is a precision tactical cartridge whose time has come. Originally developed in 1983 at the request of the U.S. Navy, the .338 uses a necked down .416 Rigby case and in its initial configuration launched a 250-grain bullet at nearly 3,000 feet per second (fps) with a muzzle energy of over 4,800 foot pounds of energy (fpe). Research Armament produced a prototype rifle and ammunition that were tested by the Navy, but the cartridge never was put into production in the United States. Lapua and Norma finished development of the .338 and began manufacturing the cartridge under the Lapua name. Besides Lapua, Black Hills also loads both 250- and 300-grain cartridges. The latter bullet leaves the muzzle at 2,800 fps with a prodigious 5,223 fpe. To put this into perspective, a 168-grain .308 match cartridge has a muzzle velocity of only about 2,600 fps and 2,180 fpe. The .308’s ballistics pale in comparison to the .338 Lapua, although most .338 rifles are only marginally heavier than precision tactical rifles chambered for the .308.
When raised up, the McMillan A5’s adjustable cheekpiece is designed not to conflict with the “bolt throw” of the host rifle.
The Remington Model 40-XS, for example, is only slightly larger and heavier than similar rifles in smaller calibers, weighing in at 16 pounds — complete with scope and bipod. The test rifle uses Remington’s Model 40-XS action in a McMillan A5 stock. Naturally, a large cartridge like the .338 will necessarily deliver more felt recoil than lesser cartridges, but this can be offset by the use of muzzle brakes. The Remington muzzle brake reduces felt recoil to approximately that of a .308, although muzzle blast alongside the rifle is significant. The spotter on a precision tactical team using a Remington 40-XS .338 Lapua Mag should position himself slightly to the rear of the shooter’s shoulder to avoid having gases and dust blown into his face. As the .338 Lapua Mag became accepted by a number of the world’s military forces as replacements for, or supplements to bridge the gap between the .308 and .50 BMG, it was only a matter of time before law enforcement began to consider it. The .338 gives the precision tactical marksman a huge range advantage over any .308 caliber rifle, while adding little to the weight burden that every rifleman must contend with. As mentioned, the test rifle weighs only 16 pounds (fully loaded) and I’ve tested .308 caliber precision tactical rifles that weigh about the same. When compared to .50 BMG caliber rifles, the Remington 40-XS weighs nearly 10 pounds less than the lightest weight .50 BMG rifle I’ve ever tested. Most .50 BMG rifles, like the widely used Barrett M82, weigh over 30 pounds.
The aggressively designed muzzle brake of the 40-XS helped tame the recoil of the .338 Lapua Mag chambering down to manageable .308 levels.
