Tasmanian Tiger Introduces the TT Modular Pack 30 SL

Tasmanian Tiger® Introduces the TT Modular Pack 30 SL

Mission-ready, short-range 30-liter modular backpack with adjustable Y2 Carrying System, engineered for military, tactical, and outdoor professionals.


Knoxville, Tenn. (February 2026) – Tasmanian Tiger®, a tactical nylon line of products distributed exclusively for the US market by Proforce Equipment, Inc., announces the release of the TT Modular Pack 30 SL, a mission-configurable short-range backpack designed to meet the demands of military personnel, law enforcement officers, and serious outdoor users.

Built around Tasmanian Tiger’s adjustable Y2 Carrying System, the TT Modular Pack 30 SL offers a 30-liter (1,831 cubic inches) capacity while providing an exceptionally wide range of back-length adjustment. The SL (Short to Long) designation reflects the pack’s ability to accommodate both shorter and taller users without compromising fit, load stability, or comfort.

The ergonomically padded back panel integrates aluminum support elements for enhanced load transfer and rigidity. A detachable rear panel with a shapeable aluminum rail allows users to customize the pack’s structure to mission-specific requirements. Length-adjustable shoulder straps and padded hip fins with zippered pockets, removable via hook-and-loop attachment, further enhance adaptability and load management.

Engineered for modularity, the TT Modular Pack 30 SL features a laser-cut MOLLE system on the front and sides, as well as MOLLE hook-and-loop panels inside the main compartment. This configuration enables extensive customization and expansion with compatible pouches and accessories. The front panel offers four MOLLE loops across by five loops vertically, while the sides provide four loops across by seven loops vertically, with one interruption.

Inside, the pack includes two hook-and-loop accessory pockets with zippers, additional inner zippered pockets, and small mesh compartments for organizing smaller items. A lid pocket with a small organizer, an additional flat zip pocket on the front, and a daisy chain provide further storage and attachment options.



The pack’s individually adjustable and removable side compression straps can be rethreaded to block the main zipper for added security. Antenna ports into the main compartment support communications equipment integration. A hook-and-loop surface on the exterior allows for identification patches and insignia.

Constructed from durable CORDURA® 700 den fabric (500 den in Multicam), the TT Modular Pack 30 SL is built to withstand rigorous operational environments. The pack weighs 4.3 pounds (1.94 kilograms) and measures 22.5x10x7.5 inches (57x26x19 cm).

With its adaptable fit, robust construction, and mission-focused modularity, the TT Modular Pack 30 SL delivers a scalable load carriage solution for short-range operations, training, and extended field use. The TT Modular Pack 30 SL is available in black, olive, and coyote for an MSRP of $399. Multicam is available at an MSRP of $499.

NEW FROM HENRY: Explorer Carbine

Henry Repeating Arms

Henry Repeating Arms Debuts the Explorer Carbine Series

RICE LAKE, Wis., February 19, 2026 — Henry Repeating Arms, one of America’s leading firearm manufacturers and the world leader in the lever-action category, has started shipping its new Explorer Carbines, first shown at the 2026 SHOT Show. Available across the company’s most popular centerfire platforms, the new models combine distinctive styling with enhanced durability.
The Explorer Carbine draws inspiration from the rugged landscapes of the American Southwest, a region defined by sun-scorched earth and canyon stone. Each rifle features a Burnt Bronze Cerakote® finish applied to the lever, receiver, barrel, and outer magazine tube, reflecting those natural tones. This inaugural Burnt Bronze configuration represents the first in a potential series of regionally inspired finishes, each intended to capture the distinctive character and colors of America’s diverse landscapes. In addition to its warm, understated appearance, the Cerakote application provides increased resistance to physical and environmental wear, delivering long-term protection while creating a refined, custom-shop look without the custom-shop price tag.
Beyond the looks, Henry’s Explorer Carbines emphasize portability, balance, and fast handling. Each model is fitted with a threaded 16.5-inch carbine-length barrel, fully adjustable sights, and a receiver that’s drilled and tapped for optics. Sling swivel studs come standard, supporting comfortable field carry and practical everyday use. All Explorer Carbine models feature a checkered pistol-grip buttstock and fore-end cut from genuine American walnut and a ventilated rubber recoil pad.
The
H9 Explorer Carbine is offered in .30-30 Winchester and .360 Buckhammer, each with a 4-round capacity. The H10 Explorer Carbine is chambered in .45-70 Gov’t and also features a 4-round capacity. The H12 Explorer Carbine is available in .357 Magnum / .38 Special and .44 Magnum / .44 Special, both with a 7-round capacity. The MSRP for the Explorer Carbine is $1,430.
“Sometimes a product tells you what it wants to be,” said Anthony Imperato, Founder and CEO of Henry Repeating Arms. “We produced a Burnt Bronze lever-action as an experiment, and it immediately stood out. The color evokes the landscapes of the American Southwest, which made the Explorer Carbine name a natural match. This is just the beginning, and we invite the Henry community to send us their ideas for other colors and regions that deserve their own spot in our catalog.”
Like all Henry firearms, the Explorer Carbine is proudly Made in America, Or Not Made At All, and is backed by Henry Repeating Arms’ Lifetime Warranty and industry-renowned customer service.
The Explorer Carbine is only available through licensed firearms dealers. For more information about these new models, visit
henryusa.com.

Beyond the Trigger: How InVeris Redefined Reality at SHOT Show 2026

InVeris Redefined Reality at SHOT Show 2026

Screenshot 2026-02-17 200657

At the 2026 SHOT Show in Las Vegas, the buzz surrounding tactical training reached a fever pitch, but few exhibits captured the imagination quite like the InVeris Training Solutions  showcase. While the show floor was packed with the latest in ballistic steel and polymer, InVeris shifted the focus toward the most critical component of any operation: the human decision-making process.

At the heart of their exhibit was a state-of-the-art simulated kill house, a high-fidelity environment designed to bridge the gap between static range shooting and the chaotic reality of close-quarters combat.

The Concept: Simulation vs. Reality

For decades, the gold standard for tactical readiness was “live-fire” training. However, the industry is seeing a massive shift toward simulation-driven curricula. The reasons are two-fold: cost and effectiveness.

  • Cost Efficiency: Outfitting a squad with live ammunition, securing a physical range, and repairing shoot-house walls is an astronomical expense. Simulation training removes the “per-bullet” cost, allowing for thousands of repetitions at a fraction of the budget.

  • Safety & Flexibility: Simulation allows for “stress-testing” a trainee in ways that would be too dangerous with live rounds—such as complex 360-degree scenarios or inter-team coordination drills—without the risk of a tragic accident.

  • The InVeris Kill House Experience

    The attendee experience at the InVeris booth was less about looking at gear and more about doing the work. Visitors weren’t just observing; they were stepping into an, immersive environment that mimicked the tension of a real-world entry.

    The kill house utilized InVeris’s legendary FATS (Firearms Training System) technology, integrated into a physical layout. The value here isn’t just in hitting a target; it’s in the Judgmental Training of the trainee.

  • The Shoot/Don’t Shoot Dilemma: Trainees are forced to identify threats in low-light, high-noise environments where a split-second mistake has consequences.

  • After-Action Review (AAR): One of the most praised features by SHOT Show attendees was the immediate feedback. The system tracks muzzle discipline, trigger squeeze, and even the trainee’s heart rate, providing a digital “play-by-play” that identifies exactly where a tactical decision went right or wrong.

  • The Attendee Perspective

    Walking into the exhibit, the atmosphere was electric. Unlike the loud, concussive environment of the live-fire ranges at Boulder City, the InVeris booth offered a “focused intensity.” Attendees stood in line not just to see the tech, but to test their own mettle.

    The experience was described by many as “eye-opening.” It’s one thing to hit a paper target at 25 yards; it’s quite another to clear a corner and find yourself face-to-face with a high-definition digital adversary that reacts to your movements in real-time.

    Why It Matters

    As agencies and private security firms face tightening budgets and increased scrutiny, the InVeris exhibit proved that the future of the “kill house” isn’t just about more plywood and ammo—it’s about smarter data. By focusing on the cognitive load of the operator rather than just the mechanics of the firearm, InVeris is redefining what it means to be “mission ready.”

    “The tech is impressive, but the real takeaway is the realization of how much your fine motor skills degrade the moment a scenario turns dynamic.” — SHOT Show 2026 Attendee

    InVeris Training Solutions (and its legacy brands FATS and Meggitt) is the global “system of record” for small-arms simulation. Their technology is currently deployed in over 130 countries, with more than 5,100 virtual systems and 15,500 live-fire ranges in operation.

    Military & Federal Agencies

    The FATS® 100MIL is the specific system of record for the U.S. military’s small-arms training.

  • U.S. Army: Extensive use of the Engagement Skills Trainer (EST II) and small-arms simulators.

  • U.S. Marine Corps: Uses the Indoor Simulated Marksmanship Trainer (ISMT).

  • U.S. Navy: Recently awarded contracts for FATS 100MIL software and M18 BlueFire pistol simulators.

  • U.S. Air Force: Specifically the Security Forces units (which utilize the SURVIVR VR technology acquired by InVeris).

  • Department of Homeland Security (DHS): Including various customs and border protection units.

  • U.S. Department of State: Global diplomatic security and training programs.

  • U.S. Coast Guard: Training for maritime interdiction and boarding.

  • UK Ministry of Defence: Long-standing user of FATS systems for British Armed Forces.

  • Law Enforcement & Public Safety

    The FATS® 100LE and multi-screen 180LE/300LE systems are widely used for de-escalation and judgmental training.

  • California POST: The Commission on Peace Officer Standards and Training serves as a primary launch customer for their latest VR solutions.

  • Long Beach Police Department: Tailored training for urban patrol challenges.

  • Sacramento and Oakland PDs: Use localized scenarios for situational awareness training.

  • Dallas Police Department: Integration through the SURVIVR acquisition.

  • Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP): Utilizing simulation for both marksmanship and use-of-force.

  • International Organizations
  • Australian Defence Force (ADF): Regular updates to their virtual weapons training systems.

  • Singapore Armed Forces: High-density virtual training environments for urban combat.

  • NATO Partners: Various European defense forces use InVeris for interoperability training across small-arms platforms.

    NSSF Salutes VA Secretary Collins for Protecting Veterans’ Second Amendment Rights

    NSSF

    February 18, 2026

    NSSF Salutes VA Secretary Collins for Protecting Veterans’ Second Amendment Rights

    WASHINGTON, D.C. — NSSF®, The Firearm Industry Trade Association, salutes Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Secretary Doug Collins for protecting veterans’ Second Amendment rights by eliminating the policy of reporting veterans who require a fiduciary to assist in financial affairs to the FBI’s National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) to be included as a prohibited person for purchasing or possessing a firearm.

    Rolling back this three-decade-old policy has been a longstanding NSSF priority that unduly robbed veterans of their Second Amendment rights to keep and bear arms. Needing assistance organizing financial matters is not a prohibiting factor to deny any individual the ability to legally purchase or possess a firearm. No one — much less a law-abiding veteran — should have their ability to lawfully acquire a firearm at retail denied without due process.

    “This is another example of the Trump administration upholding its promise to protect Second Amendment rights and the industry that makes those rights possible,” said Lawrence G. Keane, NSSF Senior Vice President & General Counsel. “This action taken by Secretary Collins to not only end the practice but restore those rights to veterans who were wrongfully reported to NICS as ‘prohibited’ reflects his commitment to veterans and the rule of law. NSSF is tremendously grateful to Secretary Collins for his leadership.”

    Secretary Collins, working in consultation with U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi and Department of Justice (DOJ) officials, rescinded the extrajudicial practice that denied veterans their Second Amendment rights through bureaucratic fiat. They both agreed, and NSSF concurs, that the practice of VA bureaucrats reporting veterans’ names as “prohibited persons” to FBI NICS violates the Gun Control Act (GCA) and the Second Amendment rights of those veterans who served and fought to protect those rights for all Americans.

    NSSF continues to support and urges Congress to pass the Veterans 2nd Amendment Protection Act in the U.S. House of Representatives and U.S. Senate. U.S. Rep. Mike Bost (R-Ill.), Chairman of the House Committee on Veterans Affairs, along with Rep. Morgan Luttrell (R-Texas), introduced H.R. 1041, and Sen. John Kennedy (R-La.), along with Sen. Jerry Moran (R-Kan.), Chairman of the Senate Committee on Veterans Affairs, introduced S. 478. The two pieces of legislation would ensure that a future administration cannot strip a veteran with a fiduciary of their rights to keep and bear arms without a judge or court ruling first that the veteran is a danger to themselves or their community.

    A Look Inside the Watchtower Defense Transition and Their New Apache Series

    Watchtower Defense

    20260121_141108

    In late 2025, the American firearms landscape saw a significant shift as Watchtower Firearms transitioned into Watchtower Defense. This evolution was more than just a name change; it represented a strategic pivot from high-end, handmade 2011-style pistols toward “duty-focused” engineering designed for military, law enforcement, and serious defensive use.

    Backed by fresh capital and a new 24,000-square-foot state-of-the-art facility in Spring, Texas, Watchtower Defense has doubled down on its “Made in the USA” veteran-owned heritage. Here is a look at the two flagship pistols leading this new era.

    image

    The Apache MKII

    The Watchtower Defense Apache MKII is the 2026 evolution of Watchtower’s flagship double-stack 1911 (2011-style) pistol. Unveiled at SHOT Show 2026, the MKII focuses on mechanical refinements and advanced surface treatments to improve the reliability and “flat-shooting” characteristics of the original platform.

    Core Specifications

    The Apache MKII is built as a competition-ready, full-size Government profile handgun.

    • Caliber: 9x19mm Luger
    • Capacity: Ships with one 17-round and one 20-round magazine (SV/STI pattern)
    • Barrel: 4.6-inch 416R stainless steel, threaded with an integrated compensator
    • Weight: ~36.5 oz (Dry/Empty)
    • Frame: 17-4 PH Stainless Steel
    • Slide: 416R Stainless Steel with aggressive front/rear serrations
    • MSRP: $3,999.00
    Key Technical Enhancements

    The “MKII” designation signifies several specific upgrades over the original Apache:

    • Black Graphene Coating: Replacing the previous PVD finishes, this coating is the MKII’s standout feature. Developed from DoD research, Graphene is significantly harder and more lubricious than traditional coatings, reducing friction on critical contact points (slide/frame/barrel) and simplifying cleaning.
    • Integrated Compensator: The thread-on compensator is designed to blend seamlessly with the slide. It redirects gases upward to provide a “return to zero” recoil impulse, specifically tuned for rapid follow-up shots in competition.
    • MJD-CFK Grip Module: The grip is a proprietary 3D-printed composite made from Carbon Fiber, Kevlar, and Glass-Filled Nylon. It provides high rigidity and a tactical crosshatch pattern for a firm hold without the bulk of traditional grip panels.
    • Competition-Tuned Trigger: Features a flat-face trigger with a short, audible reset. Factory specs typically place the pull weight between 3–4 lbs, optimized for speed rather than duty carry.
    Design & Ergonomics
    • Optics-Ready: The slide features an RMR-footprint cut and ships with an optics plate. It includes suppressor-height sights (green fiber-optic front) to allow co-witnessing with a red dot.
    • Ambidextrous Controls: Features an oversized ambidextrous thumb safety and a traditional beavertail grip safety.
    • Recoil Management: The pistol utilizes the Dawson Precision Tool-Less Recoil System, allowing users to easily swap between 7, 8, or 9 lb springs to tune the gun to specific ammunition loads.
    Market Positioning

    Positioned in the mid-to-high tier of the 2011 market, the Apache MKII is intended to compete with brands like Staccato (specifically the XC) and Fowler Industries. It is marketed primarily as a competition and enthusiast range pistol, though its stainless-steel construction and Graphene coating offer the durability required for duty use where allowed.

    The Apache Commander

    While the Tactical Commander offering focuses on weight, the Apache Commander focuses on “tack-driving” precision and durability. It is the compact, carry-sized sibling of the famous full-size Apache, designed to be a “mid-weight powerhouse.”

    Key Specifications & Features
    • Construction: Fully precision-machined stainless steel frame, slide, and barrel.
    • Weight: 35.8 oz (unloaded). The extra weight compared to the Tactical model helps soak up recoil for faster follow-up shots.
    • Barrel: 4.1-inch (some specs cite 4.25″) 416R stainless steel with a 1:16 twist.
    • Coating: Utilizes advanced PVD or Graphene coatings (depending on the specific SKU) for extreme lubricity and corrosion resistance.
    • Grip: Proprietary MJD-CFK composite (Carbon Fiber/Kevlar and Nylon) for a rock-solid, non-slip hold.
    • Trigger: User-adjustable duty-tuned trigger (4.5–5.5 lbs).

    MSRP: Approximately $3,999. This model is aimed at shooters who want a premium, “heirloom-grade” defensive tool that can withstand the harshest environmental conditions.

    The transition to Watchtower Defense signals a move away from the “competition-only” stigma, rebranding these 2011-style pistols as rugged, dependable tools for the modern warrior.

    Farnborough, UK / 17 February 2026 – Today, SD Government (SDG), a division of Gogo (NASDAQ: GOGO), and a leading provider of satellite communications (SATCOM) solutions for government and special mission operators worldwide, in partnership with Diamond Aircraft Industries, announced the integration of advanced airborne SATCOM connectivity for the Hellenic Fire Service’s fleet of Diamond DA62 MPP (Multi-Purpose Platform) aircraft.

    In support of this project, SDG will deliver a beyond-line-of-sight (BLOS) connectivity solution featuring the Gogo Plane Simple Ku-band (PSKu) antenna system powered by the SES FlexAir network. The advanced tail-mount terminal comprises just two-Line Replaceable Units (LRU), simplifying installation and configuration requirements while supporting high-throughput airborne communications suitable for Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) and civil protection missions.

    The Hellenic Fire Service has recently taken delivery of three Diamond DA62 MPP aircraft under the AEGIS (ΑΙΓΙΣ) national civil protection programme – Greece’s most significant modernisation of civil protection aerial assets to date. Equipped with advanced electro-optical, infrared, and thermal sensors, the DA62 MPP aircraft act as airborne command-and-control nodes, supporting wildfire suppression, disaster response, and wide-area surveillance missions. With endurance exceeding seven hours and a range of more than 1,500km, the platform represents a major step forward in Greece’s ability to monitor, coordinate and respond to emergencies.

    ThroScreenshot 2026-02-17 102249ugh the SES global network, FlexAir provides consistent, managed connectivity optimised for aviation users, enabling a reliable satellite connection for applications including real-time video streaming, sensor data transfer, and secure communications between aircraft and ground command centres. The service is designed to deliver robust performance, high-throughput, and resilient coverage, supporting the streaming of high-definition video from the air to the ground, in near real-time.

    This SATCOM solution is now available from Diamond Aircraft as both a factory line-fit and retrofit option for the DA62 MPP. The modular architecture design of the aircraft mission system enables seamless integration of the PSKU system with various sensor payloads.

    NSSF Celebrates Nearly $1.3 Billion to States for Wildlife Conservation

    NSSF

    February 17, 2026

    NSSF Celebrates Nearly $1.3 Billion to States for Wildlife Conservation 

    WASHINGTON, D.C. — NSSF®, The Firearm Industry Trade Association, celebrates the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s (USFWS) announcement that nearly $1.3 billion is being delivered to state conservation and wildlife access programs. The distribution of funds is derived from Pittman-Robertson excise taxes paid by firearm and ammunition manufacturers and Dingell-Johnson excise taxes paid by the angling industry.

    A total of $804,790,385 of the nearly $1.3 billion of those funds are directly sourced from firearm and ammunition excise taxes paid by manufacturers. Since 1937, more than $31 billion has been distributed through annual apportionments to states for managing wildlife resources. These funds directly contribute to wildlife conservation through the Pittman-Robertson Wildlife Restoration Act and provide funding for conservation programs, increased access to public lands and hunter education.

    “The firearm industry is tremendously proud of the contributions we make to conserving our wildlife and the habitats wildlife need to thrive for generations to come,” said NSSF President and CEO Joe Bartozzi. “Our industry is at the forefront of wildlife conservation. Each time a recreational shooter or hunter purchases a firearm or ammunition, they are helping to support wildlife conservation through the excise taxes paid by our industry on the sale of those products. The American model of conservation funding is the gold standard throughout the world for sustainable conservation and wildlife management.”

    The excise tax is set at 11 percent of the wholesale price for long guns and ammunition and 10 percent of the wholesale price for handguns. The excise tax, paid by manufacturers and importers, applies to all firearms and ammunition imported or sold domestically to the commercial market and federal law enforcement sales, whether the purpose is for recreational shooting, hunting or personal defense. The tax is administered by the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB) of the Department of the Treasury, which turns the funds over to the USFWS.

    USFWS deposits the Pittman-Robertson excise tax revenues into a special account called the Wildlife Restoration Trust Fund administered by the USFWS. These funds are made available to states and territories the year following their collection based on a statutory formula. These excise tax dollars collected since 1937 under the Pittman-Robertson Wildlife Restoration Act are specifically designated to be used by state wildlife agencies for conservation and related purposes. Collectively, purchasers of firearms and ammunition, hunters and the firearm and ammunition industry are the greatest source of wildlife conservation funding.

    

    About NSSF

    NSSF is the trade association for the firearm industry. Its mission is to promote, protect and preserve hunting and the shooting sports. Formed in 1961, NSSF has a membership of thousands of manufacturers, distributors, firearm retailers, shooting ranges, sportsmen’s organizations and publishers nationwide.

    New Google Tool Addresses Online Privacy Issues

    New Google Tool Addresses Online Privacy Issues

    Feb 14, 2026

    (Source: iHLS)

    Representational image of google search

    This post is also available in: עברית (Hebrew)

    As more personal information moves online, individuals are increasingly exposed to identity theft, harassment, and privacy violations. Search engines often serve as the first stop for anyone looking up contact details or leaked data. Once sensitive information appears in search results, it becomes far easier to discover and misuse—even if the original source remains obscure.

    A new update to a major search platform’s privacy tools aims to shift from reactive removal to proactive monitoring. The expanded privacy hub now allows users to track not only phone numbers and home addresses, but also highly sensitive identifiers such as driver’s license numbers, passport details, and national identification numbers. After entering the data they wish to monitor, users receive alerts if matching information appears in search results. This automated scanning reduces the need for individuals to manually check for leaks.

    According to Interesting Engineering, the system does not delete data from the internet itself, but it can remove the visibility of that data in search results, significantly limiting public exposure. In practical terms, this creates a barrier that makes sensitive information harder to locate through casual or targeted searches.

    The update also addresses non-consensual explicit imagery, a growing problem in digital abuse cases. The reporting process has been streamlined so that users can flag multiple images at once rather than submitting individual requests. Once a request is filed, users can track its status from a centralized dashboard and receive email updates. In addition, an opt-in feature enables proactive filtering, designed to prevent similar explicit results from appearing again in future searches.

    Beyond content removal, the tool integrates links to professional support services, connecting affected individuals with legal and emotional assistance resources. The aim is not only to remove harmful material but also to reduce the repeated exposure that can occur when such content is re-uploaded.

    From a homeland security and cyber-defense perspective, these measures address more than personal privacy. Sensitive identifiers exposed online can be used for fraud, social engineering, or targeting of public officials and security personnel. Proactive monitoring and search-level filtering help reduce the attack surface available to malicious actors.

    While the current rollout is limited geographically to U.S. users, the broader trend is clear: privacy protection is evolving from manual takedown requests to automated detection and prevention. As digital footprints grow, tools that limit the discoverability of sensitive data are becoming an essential layer of defense.

    Democratizing the Darkness: How the AGM Rattler V2 and V3 Brought Professional Thermal to the Masses

    20260122_142534

    AGM Rattler V3

    Founded in 2019 by a team of industry veterans, including Mark and Gary Tarakanov, AGM Global Vision has rapidly ascended to become a dominant force in the electro-optics market. Headquartered in Springerville, Arizona, with additional facilities in Grand Prairie, Texas, and Sofia, Bulgaria, the company leverages decades of collective experience from its founders’ previous successes at brands like ATN and Armasight. Their mission centers on democratizing high-end technology, transitioning advanced thermal and night vision capabilities from the exclusive domain of military professionals to accessible tools for hunters, law enforcement, and outdoor enthusiasts worldwide.

    Thermal imaging was once a “black magic” technology reserved for tier-one military operators and those with five-figure budgets. However, the release of the AGM Rattler V2 and the more recent V3 has fundamentally shifted that landscape. These two generations of optics represent more than just incremental hardware updates; they are the bridge that has brought professional-grade detection and precision to the average hunter and property owner.

    The AGM Rattler V2: The Performance Workhorse

    The V2 series was designed to fix the ergonomic growing pains of the original Rattler while pushing the limits of mid-range thermal sensors. It established the baseline for what a modern, accessible thermal scope should look like.

    • Sensitivity Revolution: The V2 introduced a sub-20mK thermal sensor. In layman’s terms, “mK” (milliKelvin) measures how small a temperature difference the scope can see. A lower number means more detail. While older scopes struggled in humidity, the V2 can distinguish the individual tufts of fur on a coyote even in thick fog.

    • The Power Solution: One of the greatest barriers for the average man was the cost and hassle of CR123 batteries. The V2 moved to a proprietary, rechargeable, high-capacity Li-ion battery pack, providing up to 11 hours of runtime.

    • User-Centric Design: It added “Shot-Activated Recording” (SAR), ensuring hunters didn’t have to fumble with buttons during the adrenaline of a shot. The raised 5-button layout allowed for intuitive use in total darkness with gloves.


    The AGM Rattler V3: The High-Tech Refinement

    If the V2 was the workhorse, the V3 is the precision instrument. Released to push the technology into the premium spec bracket while maintaining the Rattler’s compact, accessible form factor.

    • Sub-15mK Sensitivity: The V3 pushes sensitivity even further, offering arguably the clearest image AGM has ever produced. This level of clarity helps ensure a positive ID (identifying a neighbor’s dog vs. a coyote) at much longer distances.

    • Integrated Laser Rangefinder (LRF) & Ballistics: The standout feature of the V3 is the in-lens LRF. Estimating distance at night is notoriously difficult because thermal removes depth perception. The V3 not only tells you the distance (up to 1,000 yards) but uses an onboard ballistic calculator to tell you exactly where to hold your reticle.

    • Shutterless “NUC-Free” Tech: Most thermal scopes “freeze” for a split second periodically to recalibrate (Non-Uniformity Correction). The V3 uses a shutterless system that performs this correction algorithmically, meaning your image never freezes at the critical moment of a shot.

    • Massive Display Upgrade: The V3 640 models feature a 2560×2560 OLED display. This provides a circular, more natural field of view that feels like looking through a traditional glass optic.


    Paving the Way for Accessibility

    AGM’s strategy with the Rattler series has been to “democratize” the night.

    • Price Versatility: By offering sensors ranging from entry-level (256 res) to professional (640 res), they allow a newcomer to enter the hobby for under $1,000, while offering a clear “rank-up” path to the V3 for those needing long-range precision.
    • Size and Weight: Both generations are compact. Unlike older thermal “bricks,” these fit comfortably on a standard AR-15 or a lightweight bolt gun without ruining the balance of the rifle.
    • Ease of Use: The “two-shot zero” and smartphone app integration (AGM Connect) take the technical mystery out of the device. If you can use a smartphone, you can use a Rattler.

    The Rattler V2 remains the best “bang-for-your-buck” for the average hunter who needs all-night battery life. However, for the user who wants to remove all guesswork with range-finding and ballistic holds, the V3 represents the new gold standard of “attainable” high-end thermal.

    American Tactical Introduces the Calvary 3B Triple Barrel Shotgun

    American Tactical Introduces the Calvary 3B Triple Barrel Shotgun

    ATI 3B SGT 12GA 3 BBL 26" M/1M/F 3.5" SLV RCV ENGRAVED WHT TRIG WOOD STK  GRN F/O FS PAD SLING STD | American Tactical

    Summerville, SC – American Tactical proudly announces the arrival of the Cavalry 3B™ Triple Barrel Shotgun, a break-open 12-gauge that redefines expectations with its striking three-barrel configuration and refined aesthetic. Designed to be both a functional workhorse and a standout centerpiece, the Cavalry 3B delivers innovation, reliability, and undeniable “wow” factor in one commanding platform.

    A Design That Breaks the Mold

    The Cavalry 3B isn’t your typical shotgun. Featuring an 18.5-inch or 20-inch triple-barrel configuration, this uniquely engineered firearm pairs bold performance with timeless styling. Elegant walnut furniture complements a black or silver receiver adorned with intricate scroll engraving, creating a classic look with a modern edge.

    As a break-open action shotgun, the 3B maintains mechanical simplicity and rugged durability, all while offering an eye-catching profile that immediately distinguishes it from traditional single- or double-barrel designs. In addition, the Trigger Housing drops out for easy cleaning and maintenance.

    Triple-Barrel Performance

    Chambered in 12-gauge and capable of accepting up to 3½” Magnum shells, the Cavalry 3B offers exceptional versatility across a wide range of loads. Its preset firing sequence—Lower Right barrel first, followed by Left, then Top—provides three ready shots in a consistent, predictable cadence.

    By combining triple-shot capability with the legendary reliability of a break-action system, the 3B eliminates the mechanical complexity of semi-automatic platforms while still delivering rapid follow-up shots when needed.

    Built for Versatility and Comfort

    Despite its formidable appearance, the Cavalry 3B is surprisingly balanced and manageable, weighing just 7 pounds with an overall length of 35.5 inches. Key features include:

    • 5 Internal Choke Tubes (Full, Improved Modified, Modified, Improved Cylinder, Cylinder)
    • Stevens 555 threading for compatibility
    • Premium Recoil Pad to help mitigate felt recoil, especially with Magnum loads
    • Green Fiber Optic Front Sight for enhanced visibility and rapid target acquisition
    • Extractor System for reliable shell removal
    • Steel Shot Rated for modern ammunition compatibility
    • Sling Post and Swivel Stud included

    The included choke selection allows shooters to fine-tune pattern spread for various applications, while the fiber optic sight ensures fast sight alignment in diverse lighting conditions.

    Key Specifications:

    • Model: Cavalry 3B
    • MPN: ATIGKOF123B18
    • UPC: 810113111063
    • Action: Break Open
    • Gauge: 12
    • Capacity: 3
    • Chamber: 3.5”
    • Barrel Length: 18.5” (Triple Barrel)
    • Overall Length: 35.5”
    • Weight: 7 lbs
    • Length of Pull: 14.25”
    • Sights: Green Fiber Optic Front
    • Recoil Pad: Premium
    • Chokes: 5 Included (F, IM, M, IC, C) – Stevens 555 Threading
    • Shell Extraction: Extractor
    • Steel Shot Rated: Yes
    • Drilled & Tapped: No
    • Fire Sequence: Lower Right → Left → Top

    A True Conversation Starter

    With an MSRP of $889.95, the American Tactical Cavalry 3B offers shooters and collectors a distinctive alternative in the 12-gauge market. Whether admired for its engineering ingenuity, demonstrated for its rapid three-shot sequence, or appreciated for its refined detailing, the 3B stands as both a functional firearm and a bold statement piece.
