The FN Viper X-11 tactical light is equipped with four hardened metal horns for emergency glass-breaking capability. The FN Striker-6 tactical light has glass-breaking capability, selectable three-position rear-mounted operating switch assembly and an internal gas purge assist capability"

The FN SLP Mark I autoloading shotgun features an aluminum alloy 12-gauge, 3' magnum receiver, eight-shot magazine tube and 22' barrel with the Standard Invector choke tube system. The Active Valve system automatically adjusts the exact amount of gas needed to operate the action and two interchangeable gas pistons are included. The checkered matte black synthetic stock is equipped with a premium recoil pad and steel sling swivel studs. An adjustable folding rear sight, red fiber-optic front sight element and Weaver-pattern cantilever optics rail are standard.
FN and C-More Systems introduce low-profile, non-snag 3-dot fixed combat sights for the FN Five-seveN 5.7x28mm pistol, with optional self-luminous tritium elements. The sights are offered as an accessory, with plans to include them as standard equipment on select models of the Five-seveN USG pistol later this year."

Displaying ammo collection. How to do it?
Posted by marlinman93:
Displaying ammo collection. How to do it?: "It's best to lay them out on a piece of colored hard board, or heavy cardboard. Find a large picture frame first, that will hold the number of cartridges you want to display. When you lay them all out, take a Sharpie, or fine tip pen, and put a dot on either side of each case. This will give you a mark to drill a small hole for a retaining wire. After drilling a hole for each cartridge, get some small copper wire, and push it through the holes, securing the cartridge to the board by twisting the wire together on the back.
Rainbow or circular patterns look better than straight rows. If you need more room, a small half circle inside of a larger half circle will get them all in. Try to type up labels to glue on beside each cartridge, to identify the caliber. This is similar to what the ammo makers did with their bullet boards in the past. If you want to get really creative, you could get a picture of a big game anaimal, and have it blown up as a background for your display board.
Good luck!"

SLiP2000™ - Brush Buddy
SLiP2000™ - Brush Buddy: "ELIMINATES THE NEED TO SCREW AND
UNSCREW YOUR CLEANING TOOLS
Are you tired of...
wasting your time screwing and unscrewing your cleaning tools?
spending too much money on cleaning rods so you can have one for every cleaning tool and one for every caliber?
poking you fingers while trying to screw a brush on or off?
having nasty, dirty hands from cleaning your gun?
getting toxic cleaning agents all over your hands?
needing pliers to remove a cleaning tool from your rod?
Then The Brush Buddy™ is for you.
The Brush Buddy™ is Faster and Easier
The Brush Buddy Quick Release System was invented to target the time consuming task of screwing and unscrewing your cleaning tools like your brushes, jags, patch holders and mops.
The old fashion way of changing from one cleaning tool to another by screwing and unscrewing would take from 5 to 10 seconds. With The Brush Buddy™ removing and attaching a cleaning tool will only take a split second. That's right, less then 1 second!
No more frustration trying to screw in a cleaning tool and getting the threads to line up. No more stripping threads and rendering a good cleaning tool useless. Now you can remove a cleaning tool with ease and attach it even easier.
You no longer need several rods to accomodate different cleaning tools or different calibers.
The Brush Buddy™ is Cleaner and Safer
With The Brush Buddy™ you can attach and remove cleaning tools simply by holding on to the adapter. You no longer have to grip the tool covering your hands with toxic chemicals or poke your fingers with sharp pointed tools and getting your hands nasty from carbon, lead and copper while cleaning your gun."
