It emphasizes quick adjustments without tools for various scenarios. Specific manufacturers, models, prices, or retailers are not detailed. [Springfield Armory] Echelon with Aimpoint COA Springfield Armory’s Echelon pistols are 9mm platforms available in 4.5F full-size (4.5-inch barrel), 4.0FC hybrid (full-size frame with compact slide), and 4.0C compact (4-inch barrel) variants, each factory-equipped with Aimpoint COA red dot optic. The optic features a 7075-T6 aluminum housing, 3.5 MOA dot, CR2032 battery with over five-year runtime, multiple brightness settings, and submersion rating to 25 meters. Slide integrates Aimpoint A-CUT interface with front hook and rear wedge mounting for low position and co-witness irons. [Primary Arms] SLx Compact 4-16x44mm FFP Rifle Scope – Illuminated ACSS Deka G2 Reticle (Nick) The SLx® 4-16x44mm FFP Rifle Scope extends the trusted SLx optic line into the mid-power precision space, delivering a versatile magnification range in a surprisingly compact footprint. At just 10.1 inches in length, this scope is purpose-built for agile, low-profile setups—ideal for designated marksman rifles, hunting carbines, or compact bolt guns. Its streamlined form factor doesn’t come at the cost of performance, making it an excellent option for shooters who demand long-range capability without adding bulk.0 BULLET POINTS Kinetic Development Group SideLok Optic Mounts Kinetic Development Group reaffirms a disciplined approach to SideLok optic mount development, a quick-detach system for Picatinny rails using a tool-less push-button mechanism that ensures absolute return to zero and rock-solid stability. Made primarily from 6061 aluminum with black anodized finish, the series includes mounts for red dots, scopes (30mm/34mm), and risers, emphasizing precision engineering for reliable field performance. Specs vary by model, such as the 34mm Optic Mount at 9.4 oz or Aimpoint Micro mount at 2.7 oz. PSA Sabre Ultratech OTF The PSA Sabre Ultratech is an out-the-front (OTF) automatic knife manufactured by Palmetto State Armory in collaboration with Microtech, built on Microtech’s flagship Ultratech platform. It features a 3.44-inch M390 blade with mixtape finish, lightweight aluminum handle, reversible pocket clip, and integrated glass breaker. Designed and manufactured in the USA, it offers smooth OTF deployment via side switch. Suppressor-Optimized Subsonic Ammunition Suppressor-optimized subsonic ammunition features bullets traveling under ~1,100 fps to avoid sonic cracks, maximizing sound suppression when paired with suppressors on firearms like those with threaded barrels. Key examples include .300 Blackout (subsonic 180-220-grain loads) and .338 ARC (subsonic 307-grain at 1,050 fps), ideal for stealthy or hearing-safe shooting in manually-operated rifles. Suppressors reduce muzzle blast but require subsonic ammo for full effect, with .338 ARC offering superior terminal energy over .300 Blackout out to 500 yards. NRA App The NRA App is a free digital application developed by the National Rifle Association for iOS and Android devices, designed to enhance member engagement through convenient access to resources like news, digital publications, local events, and member benefits. It features a digital NRA ID card for wallet integration, geolocation-based event discovery for training and competitions, and daily content including gun and gear reviews. As a software tool, it supports Second Amendment advocacy and shooting sports information on the go. Kinect Tool-Free M-LOK Mounting System by Kinetic Development Group The Kinect™ Series is a patented tool-free mounting system for M-LOK equipped rifles, utilizing a spring-loaded wedge mechanism for instant accessory installation and removal with a finger press. Internal locking wedges provide a secure, recoil-resistant interface comparable to traditional systems. It enhances modularity for quick rifle configurations without tools. Whiskey Two-Four Backpack 36 Developer’s Pattern The Whiskey Two-Four Backpack 36 Developer’s Pattern is a $1.00 PDF vector drawing download for a DIY backpack project with an approximate 11″ x 20″ main compartment, where volume depends on chosen depth.

No support is provided with the purchase. GUN FIGHTS No one stepped into the arena this week. THE ALLEY Silencer Central Suppressors Coming Off ITAR Regulatory Win The X post from Silencer Central links to a blog announcing suppressors being removed from ITAR regulations, reducing export restrictions and red tape for manufacturers. This allows focus on innovation and international sales while benefiting traveling hunters and shooters. No specific product model is detailed in the page content. GOING BALLISTIC The Trace Adds New Board Members: Elizabeth Weinreb Fishman, Trymaine Lee, and Julia Turner (Savage) The Trace, an anti-gun media organization linked to Michael Bloomberg’s Everytown for Gun Safety, announced three new board members on March 22, 2026: Elizabeth Weinreb Fishman (media strategist with Surgeon General ties), Trymaine Lee (journalist with shared awards), and Julia Turner (former Slate editor and L.A. Material co-founder). The article scrutinizes their backgrounds for credential exaggerations amid The Trace’s efforts to expand anti-gun advocacy. No specific legal cases, bills, or jurisdictions are mentioned.0 Shall Not Be Infringed Act (Introduced by Rep. John McGuire) (Savage) The Shall Not Be Infringed Act, introduced by Rep. John McGuire (R-Virginia) on March 16, targets gun-free zones by allowing individuals harmed in such areas to sue the establishing government entities for damages. It defines gun-free zones as areas prohibiting public carry under federal, state, or local law and ties compliance to federal funding like Byrne-JAG and COPS grants. The bill aims to hold states and localities liable if victims were legally authorized to carry in their home state and could have mitigated harm. ATF Admits It’s Still Enforcing Pistol Brace Rules — Even After the Rule Was Killed (Mock v. Garland) (Savage) Despite federal courts vacating the ATF’s 2023 pistol brace rule nationwide in cases like Mock v. Garland, a recent DOJ filing in Texas v. ATF asserts continued enforcement of NFA short-barreled rifle provisions against certain braced pistols. The ATF claims this aligns with pre-rule statutory interpretations under the National Firearms Act and Gun Control Act. Gun owners face renewed concerns over potential felony prosecutions despite the rule’s defunct status.2818 Michigan’s Extreme Risk Protection Order Act: Report on 89% Ex Parte Gun Confiscations (Savage) A report reveals that 89 percent of Michigan’s red flag law gun confiscations in 2025 occurred via ex parte orders without prior notice to the subject. Ex parte orders increased by more than 30 percent from 2024, with 459 such requests filed in 2025. The law allows seizure from subjects including minors and even third parties under an expansive definition of firearm possession. H.R. 556: Protecting Access for Hunters and Anglers Act – House Passage (Savage) The U.S. House of Representatives passed H.R. 556, the Protecting Access for Hunters and Anglers Act, on March 23, 2026.
