Streamlight TLR-7® HL-X USB

Streamlight

The newest member of Streamlight’s TLR-7® Series, the TLR-7® HL-X USB is a multi-fuel, high-lumen, high-candela, rail-mounted light engineered to produce a longer-reaching, tighter beam for targeting accuracy. Its maximum output is 1,000 lumens, with 22,000 candela and a 297-meter beam; maximum run time is 1.5 hours. The rugged anodized machined aluminum construction has a rail clamp system to securely attach or detach the light without putting your hands in front of the muzzle. Conveniently accepts either Streamlight’s SL-B9® USB-C rechargeable protected lithium-ion battery pack (included) or a single CR123A lithium battery. Safe-off feature prevents accidental actuation, saving battery life. Interchangeable ambidextrous high or low rear paddle switches accommodate your shooting style.

Mossberg 940 Pro Thunder Ranch Series

Mossberg

At the core of the 940 Pro autoloading shotgun is Mossberg’s cleaner-running and redesigned gas-operating system. Corrosion-resistant finishes on internal parts add to the reliable performance. Key features include enlarged, beveled loading port; elongated, pinch-free elevator; bright orange anodized follower; extended knurled charging handle; paddle-style bolt release; front fiber-optic sight; 8-round total capacity; and dual-sided M-LOK-compatible slots for adding accessories. The Thunder Ranch edition has a user-adjustable length-of-pull synthetic stock (12.5”–14.25”) paired with a slim profile synthetic forend, both protected with Cerakote Patriot Brown finish. The convenient optic-cut receiver provides the option of directly mounting a microdot optic (Shield RMSc-footprint), and QD sling mounting ports on both sides of the stock and forend complete this tactical package. For more info, visit mossberg.com.
