Seekins Havak Hit

Looking at getting a new bolt gun and came across the Havak Hit. It seems from reading reviews it is fantastic and the barrel swap seems effortless/genius.

Makes sense to get the 6.5CM for long range fun smacking steel and then buying the .223 Wylde barrel to hunt coyotes.

What are the Cons to the Seekins Havak Hit? Right now I am not really seeing one but would like to get some real life thoughts from people that have them. Thanks!

Night Vision Excelitas Thermal Optics!

DRT is excited to announce we are bringing a new brand to the US commercial market. UK based Excelitas/QIOPTIQ is a big player in the European/NATO defense arena. I first met them several yrs back at a border security expo. They had very nice products but unfortunately at the time they were not wanting or willing to enter the commercial space. Last yr I reached back out to my contact at Excelitas to chat about their submission for the new miniature thermal for SOCOM. Fortunately, they were also open to discussing the opportunity for DRT to start distributing their product line to US Law Enforcement and commercial end users. After months/yrs of getting this train moving we are finally there. We have an order placed that should be delivered in 4th quarter. We will have limited supply as they have multiple contracts that are rolling on these different products. We will be taking small deposits on these units similar to what we've done in the past with other units(x-elr etc)

1. Excelitas Dragon-C12XR
I'm probably most excited about this one personally. The size/performance ratio on this guy is outstanding. Fits in my hand but with an 8 degree fov it can easily take 10+ mag. It doubles at a stand alone optic (1280 amoled display in Stand alone mode). It has mil based reticle that scales with magnification. Full color display with outline modes(colored). 50 cal rated. Small enough lens that it has and inline (non folded optical bench) which helps reduce image shift. Stand alone mode has an optional PIP mode which is not common on mil sights. Utilizes the new BOSON PLUS core from FLIR. Has IBEAM protocol so will be able to link with LRFs. Can be ordered with the standard Larue mount or an optional locking Flip Mount....both of which are 1.54 Height mounts. Weighs 19.2 ounces with batteries. We ordered our units in FDE Cerakote. (the lighter one in the pics was rattle canned). These will come in at a $13,499 price point with the standard fixed Larue mount. This is the ultimate balance of small size/weight and performance. It is taylor made for a LPVO setup and small framed LR guns like a 6ARC gas gun.

2. TALON II Fused weapon sight

This sight packs a bunch of tech into a small footprint. Its only 5.5 inches long and 20 ounces. It is fixed focus on both channels and it was designed around 1-6x optics. The thermal is considered an aid to the Image intensifier. It is a 320 FLIR BOSON plus sensor so that the FOV is matched to the 16mm high fom 4G photonis I2 and so the lenses remain small. It will operate in NV or thermal only modes but it is best used as a fusion sight. I'd say considering the small optics it is a 400 meter or less device. It is like an ADUNS for a carbine. At $22,750 its not inexpensive but its closest competition is the $60k FLIR ADUNS. We have a few of these arriving in Sept. These are a program of record with several EU Mil customers.

Another OCW-ish test…. Thoughts

Hey everyone! I recently picked up a CZ 600 Range and it had only 50 rounds through it at the time of the test….. load charges are written on target…. Target was shot at 200y.
I’m looking at opinions on what looks like a solid contender, the more peoples opinions, the more insight, the less chance of me over looking something ….

CZ 600 Range
Petersons SRP brass
155gr Lapua scenar
Fed GMM primers
Vihtivori N540 powder

Thanks in advance!

Who had giant invasive venomous flying spiders for June????


Four inch leg, orb-weaving killer spiders invading New Jersey!

Personally, I am kind of pleased. A. It’s New Jersey. They deserve a spider invasion. And B. I have wanted to buy a flame thrower for a while and this will let me write it off for farm pest control.

So… winning!

Our Finest Hour

June 4th 1942

Times were beyond desperate

The enemy had the most powerful navy the world had ever seen

And this

Against unbelievable odds

Perhaps the Greatest Naval victory of the 20th Century

Perhaps ALL Centuries

May GOD bless our young men who did so much with so little, May their memory live on forever,

THIS Is Our Finest Hour.

Muzzle Brake question

I am trying to finish up a AR-10 (LR308) accuracy build in 6.5 Creedmoor that I have been working on for quite some time now. I am down to deciding on a muzzle brake to basically finish it up. What I have is a barrel that ends in a diameter of 0.925", so I need a muzzle brake at least 0.925", though preferably slightly a little larger diameter. I know that there are a fair number of brakes that would fill the need, but I am specifically looking for one that the ports are not angled back toward the shooter as much as most. I am really looking for one that diverts the blast more toward the side as much as possible while still maintaining the utmost accuracy and preventing muzzle rise as much as possible. I am willing to sacrifice a slight amount of increased kick to prevent some of the blast being diverted back toward the shooter. Let me what you would suggest are my best options.

Shoutout to All Safe Defense

Yesterday I completed my first, live fire training course with All Safe Defense. I found the course very helpful, conducted with the precision of a Swiss watch with complete focus on safety. It’s clear they have been doing this for quite a while. The staff was perfect, taking the time to answer questions, providing tips to improve timed drills and at no time “barked” at trainees like some other places do. They maintained order and kept everyone’s muzzle pointed in the right direction. While there were some challenges that I found difficult (holding 12ga shotgun shells between the first and pinky fingers for reloading while moving) I saw the benefits of every drill. Our class had it all…amateurs who never fired a shotgun before to highly trained combat soldiers who zipped through the timed drills with enviable efficiency, accuracy, and speed. This really helped us to appreciate the value of the training and the potential we all have with both live fire and at-home practice with dummy shells.

shotgun shell drill.jpg

Perhaps the most surprising revelation was the tone and tenor of the course. It wasn’t “military” (as I expected) at all. The course was relaxed, enjoyable and because of the kind and understanding nature of the All Safe Defense coaches…everyone in the class was supportive and encouraging as well. The time just flew by! TJ was especially patient and replied to all my emails in the weeks before the course (I sent way too many) and having been trained elsewhere…recognized the superior attention to detail he exhibited. TJ sets the customer care bar so high, other self defense trainers need to charter a plane just to see it. If you seek quality training that’s fun…this is your choice. All Safe Defense is unique in that all the students were smiling throughout the course. No “drill Sergeant mentality” here. Take one class…you’ll be back.
