@lokgrips dark red/black palmswell grips make everything sexier - and a whole lot grippier… #springfieldarmory #hipower #sa35 #lokgrips
Got a chance to put hands on the Springfield Armory SA-35 this weekend. There’s several things that I think they did right with this take on the Hi-Power, but they also missed the mark in a couple of areas. You can read my full initial review on the blog! #springfieldarmory #sa35 #hipower
Taking a break from iTAK for a minute to work on a review of the @_esstac #baofenguv5r Radio Pouch. Definitely some thought put into this design, and you can rig it either as a MOLLE pouch or a sidewing!
Well, would you look at that, I found a manual…. #atak
Some pics of the @battlefengs #meshtastic cases. First impression is that they’re sturdy cases that still allow easy button manipulation as well as battery changes. They make two models, one designed to attach to MOLLE and one standard. Please note: the crappy screen alignment is due to my monkey-like attempts at soldering, not their craftsmanship…
Two more #baofeng #uv5r pouches to review - one from @tasmaniantigerusa and one from @_esstac . Different takes from each company, but from just the quick unboxing look, they both look like good options for end users. #esstac #tasmaniantiger
