Perhaps you’ve been wondering just what was with all the “Combat Effective” photos and free BCM charging handles? Well, now that it’s 7-15-2011, I can tell you it was all part of BCM’s plan to reveal their updated website today.

Have a look at their 30-second spot while the interwebs catch up with all the changes. Eventually, you’ll click on over and see a site that yesterday looked like it was made by a guy too busy building guns to worry about it transformed into a well organized site that seduces your wallet with promises of mil-spec steel. Watch the video, then head over and tell yourself you don’t neeeeeed a new upper…

Whoops- Almost forgot. Who won the 4 BCM Mod 4 Charging Handles?

  • #1 Arnel Udani for the win! He ID’d Travis Haley and earned a second, fateful entry for his speed and powerful man crush.
  • #2 Goes to Shawn Madsen, though David Dickerson got a 3 shot lead for IDing the Tyr Tactical PICO Assaulters Plate Carrier.
  • #3 Goes to Justin Howe, despite John Herman’s four entries for identifying the object on Haley’s buttstock as a tourniquet.
  • #4 is for Brad Nelson, even though Alexander Volney Osha racked up five entries for calling out Mr. Haley’s BCM SAM-R in the photo.

Winners please send me a note using the contact link in the right side navigation column.

Reminding you that this is the fourth and last day of the Bravo Company Manufacturing Gunfighter MOD4 Charging Handle giveaway we are running over on our Facebook page. We’ll run the usual “like” and “tag” entry system, but we’re going to announce the winners all at once Friday morning.

Bonus: I’ll give five entries in today’s giveaway to the first person to correctly name the rifle in the photo. You can enter once everyday; if the same person wins all four, they’d best sell them before they get struck by lightning. Giveaway #4 ends at 0900 EST 7/15/11. Winner will be announced 7/15/11.

The media has been priming us for the impending premier of “Sarah Palin’s Alaska” this weekend. Take a look at this publicity photo of the red woman, it was shot this summer during filming of the show. See anything familiar? If you see something that looks like it belongs on the battlefield, post a comment. The first commenter that accurately describes the gear wins a sweet, newly released product from said company. We’ll also give something just as cool to 2 other commenters chosen at random that give the right answer. (AP Photo/TLC, Gilles Mingasson)

ChinookCongrats to YN2(AW) David Hernandez whose number came up in our random drawing for the Landyachtz Chinook longboard we offered up after we wrote about 4 longboards in the Military Times newspapers in the fall. We were thrilled with the response. Who knew there were so many shredders in the ranks!

Even though the winner was chosen randomly, we read all the responses. Boy, that was a bad idea! There were so many good stories that we wish we had a few hundred boards to give away to all of the entrants. But, we didn’t so we used the GearScout double blind, random number generation method to choose David and he’s promised to send us some pics when he gets his stoke on.
