RE Factor Tactical Target Lineup

RE Factor Tactical Target Lineup, Featuring the IQ and Essentials Targets

 

RE Factor Tactical has a variety of targets intended to help amp up your shooting game. They like to say that the best target is the one that makes you better, and RE Factor has done an excellent job at providing targets to help. We want to highlight two targets from RE Factor: their Pistol and Rifle IQ Targets and the Essentials Target.

IQ Targets

The IQ Target comes in a pistol or rifle version. So, depending on what you’re aiming to shoot will depend on which target you’d be using. So, how does it improve your shooting? Well, the IQ Targets make the shooter think by presenting a variety of letters, numbers, shapes, and colors to shoot.

Instructors or range buddies can give the command, “Shoot all circles with a number in them” or “shoot all the red shapes.” This forces the shooter to think about where they need to aim, rather than merely putting holes in paper. Or, you can draw from the Dead Man’s Hand Shooting Deck and follow those instructions.

  •       Measures: 23 x 35 in.
  •       Unlimited amount of shooting combinations
  •       Pistol targets: 3 in. shapes
  •       Rifle targets: 5 in. shapes
  •       Made in the USA

 IQ Pistol Target

The IQ Pistol Target comes with 3-in. shapes, which makes it great for up-close or long-range pistol work.

 

IQ Rifle Target

The IQ Rifle Target comes with larger 5-in. shapes, which makes it an excellent option for close quarters or short-range rifle drills.

You can purchase the rifle or pistol IQ shooting targets through RE Factor Tactical.

 

Dead Man’s Hand Shooting Deck

 

If you want to add a little more excitement to your range days and improve your shooting skills, RE Factor makes something called the Dead Man’s Hand Shooting Deck.

Intended to work specifically with IQ Targets, you can purchase the deck for pistol or rifle drills. And like the targets, the shooting decks are designed to help shooters think before pulling the trigger.

 

Like most card decks, the Dead Man’s Hand Shooting Deck comes with 52 different cards. But these aren’t just any cards; they also come with 52 different shooting drills, where the goal is to get the shooter to recognize their target(s) before firing.

This deck also offers a variety of drills for every skill level. If you’re a beginner, there are drills for you; if you’re more advanced, there are drills to challenge your skills. You can even add in shooting times to add stress and make it even harder.

 

Each deck comes with an instruction guide and metal case for secure storage in a range bag. So, grab your IQ Targets, throw a pistol or rifle deck in your range bag, and let’s get shooting!

Another awesome target to help liven up your range days and make you a better shooter is the Essentials Shooting Target. This target focuses on the essentials to maintain and improve your current proficiency

.

The Essential Shooting Target drill, outlined in the Essential Shooting Guide, requires 150 rounds to complete and covers the various pistol marksmanship elements.

You’ll be required to focus on things like weak and off-hand shooting, slow aimed fire, target transitions, speed changes, drawing, magazine reloads, and controlling multiple shot groups.

Tactical Bump Helmets, Refined

In the modern ecosystem of tactical gear, helmets have evolved employing critical real estate to mount communication gear, lights, strobes, face-shields, and night vision systems. In situations where ballistic protection is not required, bump helmets can provide similar blunt impact protection and the rail real estate to mount the needed accessories.  All while reducing the weight burden carried on the operator’s neck.

 

Team Wendy refined this capability with their two excellent products: the EXFIL LTP and EXFIL Carbon bump helmets. The LTP and Carbon platforms are available with either Team Wendy’s 2.0 or 3.0 rail system. The Team Wendy rail system is a game-changer and allows the operator to run virtually any desired accessory.

The EXFIL® LTP (Lightweight, Tactical, Polymer) bump helmet offers a stable, comfortable platform for mounting night vision and other accessories while providing a high level of impact protection from the polycarbonate copolymer shell. The built-in night vision goggle, NVG, shroud utilizes an integrated Wilcox® machined aluminum shroud insert.

 

The underside of the helmet features a Zorbium® foam liner along with a CAM FIT™ Retention System. Team Wendy’s retention system utilizes easily adjustable cam lock sliders and a micro-adjustable Boa® Fit System.

 

The EXFIL® LTP provides ample blunt impact protection, meeting shock absorption requirements of BS EN 1385:2012 (Whitewater) while weighing a mere 1.59 lbs (.72kg) for all sizes. It is available in Black or Coyote Brown.

 

The EXFIL® Carbon is made of high-strength, lightweight carbon fiber and features a Wilcox® W shroud for mounting night vision devices. The sleek, engineered carbon fiber shell improves impact protection without adding a significant weight penalty.

 

Inside, the Zorbium® foam liner provides the highest level of comfort and ultimate impact absorption. The CAM FIT™ retention with Boa® Fit System and cam lock sliders ensure a secure fit and is compatible with tactical communication headsets.

 

The EXFIL® Carbon exceeds ACH Blunt Impact requirement per AR/PD10-02, 16Dec’13 – average below 72G across all impacts and temperatures, and meets shock absorption requirements of BS EN 1385:2012 (Whitewater). With all the added capability, the weight penalty is minimal. Size 1 weight is 1.66 lbs (0.75 kg) and the size 2 comes in at 1.68 lbs (0.76 kg). It is available in Black, Coyote Brown, or MultiCam®.

MASSIF EARNS UNITED STATES AIR FORCE APPROVAL FOR WOMEN’S-FIT 2-PIECE FLIGHT SUIT FOR ALL NON-EJECTION SEAT PLATFORMS

Massif, a world leader in flame-resistant clothing for the United States Military, today announced a new branch-wide approval from the United States Air Force for its women’s-fit 2-Piece Flight Suit for all non-ejection seat platforms.

 

This is further affirmation of Massif’s long-standing commitment to providing the best-fitting garments for all end users. Massif prides itself on purposeful clothing design with a high level of detail that syncs with the real-life needs of its end-user, for maximum performance in the field.

 

Over the last decade, there has been a steady growth of women in the military, particularly in aviation, with women making up 20.2% of the Air Force and 19% of the United States Navy (according to 2018 statistics). Massif recognized this growth early on and has, over the last several years, intentionally developed a line of women’s fit clothing that provides the best in comfort and performance for female service members.

 

“We know that for a team to perform well, their gear needs to perform well. That means optimal comfort and functionality for each specific individual on that team,” said Darci Knobel, Vice President of Customer Experience. “We have always been laser-focused on making sure our clothes fit and perform their best for all end-users, and have made a concerted effort to be at the forefront of providing performance garments designed specifically for women. Today’s news is further validation of our commitment, having already received approvals from the United States Navy for the women’s-fit 2-Piece Flight Suit, and approvals from all branches, including the United States Coast Guard, for our women’s-fit base layers.”

 

Massif’s 2-Piece Flight Suit was designed from direct end-user feedback across multiple branches and multiple platforms. Massif wanted to enhance the capabilities of the modern aviator and aircrewman with innovative design features unique to our garments. The original

 

patented attachment system in the suit was built to allow flexibility and movement between the jacket and pant while still aiding coverage in flash events.

 

Massif recently launched a short documentary film in their Massif Film Series titled “Love the Mission,” highlighting Captain Lexi McRobert, Operations Officer, G/1-189 AVN. Captain McRobert is a great example of the company’s mission to design and develop garments for women who serve.

 

“The days of women having to wear men’s uniforms are over,” said Knobel. “The example of Captain McRobert in our latest short film is a great one. Like nearly every woman in the military, she was issued a men’s flight suit. Wearing our women’s-fit 2-Piece Flight Suit allowed her to feel and perform her best. We are proud to provide the option for all service members to have the best-fitting gear to keep going and perform at their highest level.”

MAGPUL® Gen M3 Magazine

With a few modifications to the combat-proven MOE® (MAGPUL® Original Equipment) M2 PMAG®, the Gen M3™ takes a great design and adds additional improvements. The Gen M2 MOE® and the Gen M3™ are primarily designed for the AR15/M4 weapons. The Gen M3™ has a modified internal and external geometry also permits operation with a wide range of additional weapons such as the HK® 416/MR556A1/M27 IAR, British SA-80, FN® SCARN MK 16/16S, along with others.

The MOE® MAGPUL® set a new standard moving away from the aluminum USGI magazine while offering a cost-competitive upgrade. The new Gen M3™ still comes in a robust impact-resistant polymer construction. It also includes the dual-sided transparent windows to enable rapid visual identification of an approximate number of rounds remaining. The window incorporates new material technology and manufacturing processes for enhanced strength, durability, and reliability to exceed rigorous military performance specifications.

Like the MOE® PMAG, the GEN M3™ features a long-life USGl-spec stainless steel spring, four-way anti-tilt follower and constant-curve internal geometry for reliable feeding, and simple tool-less disassembly to ease cleaning. Also added is a redesigned bolt catch notch in the rear of the magazine provides increased bolt catch clearance. At the same time, an over-travel stop on the spine helps ensure the magazine will not over-insert on compatible weapons. Low profile ribs and new aggressive front and rear texture gives positive control of the GEN M3™ in all environments. A paint pen dot matrix has been added to the bottom panel of the body to allow easy marking by the end user for identification.

The new, easy to disassemble flared floorplate aids extraction and handling of the magazine while providing improved drop protection. It is slightly slimmer than before for better compatibility with tight double and triple magazine pouches. The magazine includes a pop-off Impact/Dust Cover that minimizes debris intrusion and protects against potential damage to the top cartridge during storage and transit.

The Gen M3™ magazine takes a proven design and adds amazing additions for the end-user while maintaining value to the customer. When it comes to a Polymer magazine with well-thought-out functional options, the MAGPUL Gen M3™ is a magazine well worth using. These magazines are proudly made in the USA.

Trijicon Machine Gun Reflex Sight

The Trijicon MGRS® (Machine Gun Reflex Sight) is a non-magnified optic that mounts to the M2 and M240 machine guns.

As reflex sights and red dot sights capabilities become more advanced they are becoming a standard piece of gear and equipment across the board on multiple platforms.

The Trijicon MGRS® is prime military technology intended to aid the machine gunner in rapid target acquisition and engagement with an illuminated, 35 MOA red circle that allows gunners to keep “both eyes open” from a natural shooting position. The MGRS® utilizes interchangeable range dials to increase accuracy and performance.  The housing is made of 7075-T6 forged aluminum and is purpose-built for military applications.

 

The MGRS® is, without a doubt, a must-have on any mounted machine gun. With its ease of use and large field of view, paired with its ability to be used with a magnifier, the machine gunner can take their designated platform’s capabilities to the next level!
