    Yes. Interesting.

    Nice that they are dropping a little weight on the new rail. I wonder if it will have a variation without the front picatinny sections. I'm assuming so.

    If Bill Geissele says the new super coating works, I'm inclined to believe him. I guess time will tell.

    I don't need a combat knife but a billet sheath!? I kinda want a billet sheath.

    Yes, the new NCC venture interests me as well. I'll love to send a Smith and Wesson J-frame to him, and have them coat it.

    Very cool. Geissele is tugging on my wallet again!

    Looks like some very promising additions to their lineup. The grease, triggers, and rail definitely have me interested. Probably in that order.

    Now, the DSL coating gets a spot in a league of its own. I'll temper my excitement pending further information, T&E, and end user reports; but this could be a game changer. A number of others have gone down the "no-lube" and extreme wear road with varying degrees of success. The industry has been circling these solutions, and a runaway breakthrough seems inevitable. If It turns out to be the next big thing, it'll be interesting to see the applications.

    It's a golden age for America's favorite black rifle. With our history's best gun salesman checking out in two weeks, companies will have to drive demand through innovation and competition. It's a great time to be a consumer in the firearm market!

    He mentioned having a couple new rails. If there is a slim version of the MK8 I will buy 2. If one were 11" it would be awesome.

    Picatinny have been testing a DSL coating.

    95% wear reduction when run dry vs Phosphate + CLP.

    There's pictures out there comparing the two coatings after 15,000 rounds.

    Wow, I wonder how much that weighs? Neat though.

    Didn't the front half of the sheath end up being 1.8oz after milling? I'd guess the entire thing weighs 6oz.
