AR Pistols can be a bit hard to shoot one handed so to help owners of these and other types of pistols equipped with an AR style buffer tube SIG SAUER has just introduced a new stabilizing brace system. The brace slips over the buffer tube and wraps around the forearm of the shooting hand and straps down. This helps support the weight of the pistol when the arm is extended. It is also well suited for disabled shooters and a portion of the proceeds goes to Honored American Veterans Afield. Contact www.sigsauer.com.
Not just another AK-pistol variant, the SAM7K-02 from K-VAR adds an original Mil-Spec Bulgarian-designed tactical handguard with an integrated high-output light for easy target identification. The semi-automatic pistol itself is all Bulgarian Krinkov and chambered in 7.62 x 39mm; with a short gas system, milled receiver, 30-round magazine, 10.5-inch chrome lined hammer forged barrel, black polymer pistol grip and ambidextrous safety lever, rear peep sight and receiver mounted optics rail.

Instead of using ill-fitting patches to clean the barrel of your gun, shooters can now use soft, reusable foam that is specifically designed to fit the bore of your gun and provide complete surface contact for a more thoroughly clean barrel. Bore-tips and Gun-tips by Swab-its speed up cleaning and fit easily onto standard rods, while the foam material absorbs solvents and distributes them evenly in the lands and grooves. You can also wash them and use them repeatedly, unlike patches, saving shooters money as well. Contact boretips.com.
