1 2 3 1 The Condor pre-charged pneumatic air rifle from AirForce Airguns is an adult rifle, not a toy by any means. Delivering a .22-caliber pellet at up to 1,250 fps, this highly refined rifle is ultra-accurate on the target range, and doubly useful ridding your property of pests or small game hunting. The power delivered by its .22-caliber pellet is significant, and the air-rechargeable tank means no loud spring-pistons or having to buy CO2. The 4x16 power scope means you can deliver those speedy pellets precisely, and the high quality construction of the Condor means it will serve you well for decades. A stunning example of airgun technology! 2 The LaserMax Uni-Max Micro Laser weighs in at only .43 ounces, yet delivers 5 hours of bright red laser from its 5mW laser. The “tap-on/off” switch is fast and easy, and the laser mounts on virtually any picatinny rail system! User-friendly for a handgun or long-gun, and a slip-on fit for the XDm 3.8! It’s so light you won’t notice it — until you need it. 3 AE Light has quickly risen to the top in flashlight technology. Their TGMK2 Tactical light has the convenience of rechargeable batteries, but can also use CR123s. At up to 230 lumens from its Cree XPG R5 LED system, it rules the night, yet also allows a “dim” range of light to conserve power. A separate switch near the tail-cap can be used to activate a strobe mode. With 2.5 hours of run-time on high, and up to 6 hours on low, the MK2 can handle an entire mid-watch shift, or an extended camping trip! 4 Ken Onion’s designs are legendary, and his new affiliation with Columbia River Knife & Tool (CRKT) has already proven to be exciting. His “Ripple” K405 folder is their first collaboration and showcases exceptional quality and a silky smooth action, thanks to the internal ball-bearing system. From the Acuto stainless steel 3.1" droppoint blade, to the polished stainless pocket clip, the Ripple showcases Ken’s design skills, and CRKT’s ability to make top quality knives and tools!
