John Deere FN Pistol
Nothing runs like a Deere, errr FN? The logos on the mags were a nice touch too.
Found over at breachbangclear.com. Reminds me of the Glock DeWalt drill and Milwaukee AR-15 from a while back.

1911 Grip iPhone Case
Element Case makes some sweet phone cases and they’ve just released their Vapor Pro Elite Black Ops II case. It’s styled after the classic grips from the 1911 pistol. At $180 this case is pricey, especially compared to the tried and true Magpul iPhone cases, but like the Magpul cases these are actually made here in the USA. Targeted towards military and law enforcement members this CNC machined case provides a lot of protection while still being slim and sleek. Check them out at Elementcase.com.

How-to Spot A Fake EOTech Sight
I was at a gunshow recently and I was pretty amazed at how many vendors were selling fake EOTech optics, I was even more amazed that people were actually buying them! Now if you just need a cheap red dot to put on top of your airsoft or .22 rifle ok, a knock off will do. If your like depends on your rifle however you should do your homework and make sure you’re buying the real deal.
Other than the price, there’s a few tell-tale signs whether an EOTech optic is fake or not. While some obvious knock offs can be had for under $100 and come in a generic looking box, other fakes out there are more elaborate copies. EOTech actually put together this guide on how-to spot counterfeit EOTechs.
When I was shopping for an EOTech sight I made sure I bought it from an authorized dealer just to be safe, I snagged my real deal EOTech 512 at just $365 shipped from Amazon.

HK P2000 Snapped In Half
Posted over at the Loadoutroom.com, here’s something I have never seen in all my time blogging about guns. During a training exercise a Border Patrol Agent fell off his ATV and suffered some minor injuries, his HK P2000 pistol didn’t make it however. He must have had quite the fall.
Energy Drink Can Holster
From the same makers of the video game controller holsters we posted about the other day, G-Code Holsters posted this can holster on their Facebook page. I’m not a fan of energy drinks or soda, but if you need to carry your beverage at the range or out on patrol this is a sweet way to do it.
