Kydex-smiths, Cane & Derby are offering 20% off everything for 24 hours for every 100 friends they get on their Facebook page. The first sale starts today, July 7. The next will happen when the next century mark, and so on. So, if you want to make them sorry they ever thought of this idea, just keep telling your friends to like their facebook page as you order holsters for all your pistols and mags at 20% off.

I spent a few months comparing some new-to-the-market holsters and the Pardus Kydex Appendix Holster ($85) was in the lineup. It’s a strong appendix inside-the-waistband (AIWB) offering with some trick design that offers a lot of adjustability. You can adjust the ride height and cant by moving the BladeTech straps up or down in the rivet holes. The level of flexibility extends the use of the Pardus all the way to a 3 or 4 o’clock carry if you can’t stand the 12-2 appendix carry.

What’s unique about the Pardus AIWB is the body side contact surface– it’s not flat as you might expect on something that’s going to sit against your body. There’s a bulge down low that creates a bearing surface that mates up to your upper thigh while the upper part of the holster rides flat on your lower abdomen. This makes for a comfy ride with even a large frame pistol like the Glock. The all Kydex construction makes for an uncollapsible, thin profile and solid retention.

The stiff Kydex won’t soften over time and that’s important when carried up front where twisting and bending can make a traditional leather holster fold in ways that could interfere with the trigger during holstering. More info on the Pardus AIWB is available here.

Otte Gear is having an early Christmas sale, which makes sense considering now is the time to be wearing their DK Heavy Jacket. All colors and all sizes are available, and the prices are already converted on the website so you don’t have to wonder how much something is really going to cost you.

GearScout has a few different Otte Gear reviews coming up, but I’ll give away the ending a bit early to say that based on current and past use of Otte Gear, I have no problems recommending it to friends and family. Seeing it on sale at 50 percent off means I’ll be doing some early Christmas shopping myself.

The 50 percent off DK Heavy Jacket sale is going on from Nov. 3 through Nov. 10 and includes Light Coyote (looks like FDE or a slightly lighter Coyote Brown to my eye), Foliage Green, Multicam, and Desert Digital.

slingshot-jacket-alpha-greenI just came across the “special” Patagonia Slingshot jacket that looks like a Berry Amendment overrun made for one of their “special” customers. It’s available in alpha green (M-XXL) and coyote (L & XL, only) and has Velcro covered shoulder pockets. $90 is a good deal, especially considering these were made here in the US. I’m guessing these are going to begin appearing on the forums for $100+ once they sell out.

AmmoEngine_ .45 GAP, Instock For Sale Premium & Discount Ammunition, Ammo Deals
Plug in the type of ammo you want to buy and Ammoengine.com spits out a list of online retailers waiting to take your money. You can sort the results by price, manufacturer, grain weight or bullet type. The price per bullet is a fast way to compare prices, but it’s one thing to know it, and another to actually see it. If there isn’t already, I bet the popularity of Ammoengine.com will be accompanied by an uptick in the sale of bore sights.

mystery-ranch-backpacks-_-acu-nice-crewcab-and-nice-frame-sale-item3It’s weird. I really thought this ACU UCP pattern would catch on. I mean if my neighbors are prancing around in Multicam bathrobes, why am I having such a hard time finding a UCP Speedo?

At least I’m not alone in overestimating the longevity of the Army’s latest fad. Mystery Ranch, like Arc’teryx last week. is selling off their stock of UCP gear beginning today.

Head over to MysteryRanch.com and stock up.

combat-jkt-universalcam-webGearScout friends and Fort Bragg locals Grey Group Training have built a solid business by stocking some of the most hard-to-find tactical gear brands. They burned both ends of the candle last month getting their updated site greygrouptraining.com ready to launch June 1 and they’ll be celebrating with some sweet deals and new products.

They’ll have ACU-pattern Arc’teryx Combat Jackets for $200, and a small run of special-edition, Grey Group custom Tom Krein Double-Eight field daggers. No price on the Kreins, yet. Those jackets MSRP for $350, and are a good deal at $270. $200 is probably the wholesale price.

The new site will feature a live inventory system, lots of new products, better navigation. Grey Group has also taken on dedicated customer service reps, added a warehouse and generally taken things up a notch.

Grey Group Training is one of the few places you can find gear in stock from the likes of Mayflower Consulting, Ops-Core headgear, MSA helmets, 215 Gear, Crye Precision, Arc’teryx LEAF, and 5.10 tactical footwear and Kiku Matsuda knives.
