Buffer Technologies Hydraulic Buffer For .308 Rifles

Jefferson City, MO – -(AmmoLand.com)- The .308 rifle becomes an even more versatile and efficient weapon by adding a new hydraulic buffer now offered by Buffer Technologies.

“We know that competitive shooters and sportsmen alike demand the best equipment available for their firearm. This new buffer will be a great asset to those men and women who choose the .308 caliber rifle as on of their weapons of choice,” said Rob Parham, Buffer’s Director of Military and Law Enforcement Sales.

The .308 is well known by competitive shooters as a versatile and reliable weapon. However, because of its reliability, the .308 gets constant use, which can cause parts to wear down. This new product helps reduce shock, protect optics and improve accuracy. Other benefits include faster target acquisition, recoil reduction, suppression of bolt bounce, lower firing rates and drop in replacements.

“Our new buffer makes a great gun even better, while protecting the valuable accessories on the firearm,” states Parham. “This product is great in assisting target acquisition and allows for quicker follow up shots.”

The new .308 hydraulic buffer is created from black oxide finished steel and black anodized aluminum. It weighs .38 pounds, has a 5.8 inch compression length and is designed for the .308 chambered rifle with a full length buttstock.

Buffer Technologies is a Missouri-based manufacturer and distributor of tactical weapons accessories for law enforcement, military and shooting sports. Its signature products include patented recoil buffers for automatic rifles and pistols and the MagCinch dual-magazine system and accessories. Orders can be made by calling Buffer toll-free at 877-628-3337 or by visiting the web site at www.buffertech.com.

Or Akiva, Israel --(AmmoLand.com)- Meprolight, a provider of innovative weapon sights, today announced that it will launch a new version of its NOA uncooled thermal weapon sights (X4 and X7 magnification) at Milipol, the international exhibition of internal state security, to be held in Paris, France, November 17-20, 2009 (booth # 11D034).

The new version contains an advanced electronic level indicator, a critical component in balancing the sight for effective long-range shooting. Another new feature is the capability to withstand heavy weapon recoil. The sight’s new version enables bidirectional communications with military devices such as range finders and wireless recording systems.

The new version is designed for snipers who operate under harsh environmental conditions and need to detect and accurately engage targets at long ranges reaching more than 1,000 meters in variable weather conditions and very limited light availability or total darkness. The NOA sights, with their high resolution and digital zoom, detect targets in urban or densely vegetated areas, including camouflaged people or targets behind camouflage nets.

”This announcement further establishes Meprolight as a global leader in thermal sights,” said Golan Kalimi, Meprolight’s Vice President Marketing. “The new version greatly improves sniper performance. We are committed to help our clients around the world meet the most demanding challenges of long-range sniping in any environmental condition.”

NOA’s state-of-the-art sights are equipped with a cutting-edge Fire Control System (FCS), featuring automatic ballistic compensation based on range and type of weapon and ammunition, among others. Additional features include leveling indicator, Laser Range Finder interface for automatic target range acquisition, and the ability to upload and download data.

NOA sights enable wired or wireless transmission of streaming video and real-time video recording, as well as integrated capturing and storage of still images. The NOA sights excel in low energy consumption, allowing up to 10 hours of continuous operation.
