Vero Vellini Introduces Its Premium Line Of Leather Rifle Slings

MOORESTOWN, NJ – Continuing its legacy of providing the finest slings in the world, Vero Vellini is pleased to announce the availability of its new line of Premium Leather Rifle Slings. Crafted from the finest full-grain leather and Air Cushion neoprene, the new Vero Vellini Premium Leather Rifle Slings provide the look and feel of absolute luxury combined with unparalleled performance and durability.

While the topside of the new slings sport elegant leather, it is the no-slip neoprene bottom that creates a sure grip in all weather conditions and provides unprecedented comfort for long days in the field. Quick-release straps on the slings allow for easy on and off changing from one firearm to another (QD swivels sold separately). There are three sling styles in the Premium Leather Rifle Sling line: wide, narrow and padded. Each of these top-grade brown leather slings would become the perfect accessory for any hunting rifle.

The Premium Leather Rifle Slings are available for retail prices of $139.99 for the wide and narrow slings, and $169.99 for the padded sling at select retailers nationwide or online at www.gunslingsdirect.com.

Vero Vellini has been the acknowledged leader in comfortable, handcrafted gun slings. For nearly two decades, the company has been crafting these beautifully detailed and highly durable slings in Germany. Vero Vellini created the Air Cushion concept, which sandwiches neoprene and other natural and synthetic material to create an almost weightless feeling when carrying a firearm. The company also boasts the most slip-proof sling available from the use of a unique, highly durable rubber backing. Vero Vellini also manufactures fast-access cartridge cases and straps for binoculars and cameras.

CTC Defense™ Launches New Modular Vertical Foregrip Technology With MVF 600

CTC Defense™ Launches New Modular Vertical Foregrip Technology With MVF 600Wilsonville, OR – CTC Defense, a division of Crimson Trace Corporation, has announced an entirely new, innovative and modular foregrip sighting and illumination device to be introduced at the Modern Day Marine Show in Quantico, VA. The MVF-600 is a fully integrated and ergonomic laser sighting and white light foregrip that allows for quick target identification and acquisition for close quarters battle.

The MVF-600 is a feature-rich modular system providing the Warfighter on-the-go flexibility while mobile. The interchangeable, quick release modules available for the system are a red laser, infrared (IR) pointer, white light and an IR illuminator giving the choice to adapt to the Warfighter’s mission. The white light also has a separate strobe switch allowing for blinding, pulsing light to disorient a potential target. In addition, the picatinny rail mount foregrip is instinctively activated with ambidextrous pressure switches on the ergonomic foregrip.

New innovations include the quick detach system that is easily used with or without gloves and engineering that assures all lasers hold zero even after modules are interchanged without re-sighting. This modular platform will allow CTC-Defense to expand and grow additional modules to be added in the future.

Weighing only 16.02 oz with laser and light components, the Polymer grip incorporates rubber overmold and hard anodized aluminum tang construction and runs on two CR123 batteries for up to 4 to 6 hours of use. The system has a master mode selection switch for momentary and on/off options. The ergonomic design has been optimized for use on all major picatinny rails. As with all CTC-Defense products, they are 810G tested and certified to deliver confidence to today’s Modern Warfighter.

All CTC Defense products are proudly Made in the USA.
