The First Factory Manufactured Bulgarian
5.45x39.5mm Rifle with Side-Folding Stock In The
USA
Arsenal Inc. is proud to announce that for the first time ever the SLR-104FR is
now available in the United States. This Bulgarian made, one-of-a-kind
5.45x39.5mm caliber rifle with a left-side folding stock is on our shelves and
ready to ship. The 5.45x39.5mm caliber SLR-104FR rifles feature a mil-spec
stamped receiver, hammer-forged and chrome-lined barrel, and left-side folding
polymer stock. The stock set is manufactured to the true original design and
utilizes mil-spec reinforced polymer. The buttstock uses the standard 4.5mm pin
that is interchangeable with other standard side-folding stocks with 4.5mm
diameter pin holes. The side-mounted scope rail allows usage of many
attachments that are designed for this type of rail. On SLR-104FR, Arsenal uses
its own US made fire control group with two-stage hammer and trigger that
completely eliminates trigger slap and increases accuracy. The SLR-104FR has
the standard 24x1.5mm right-hand threads with a removable muzzle brake. The
stainless steel heat shield keeps your hand cool from the heat of the barrel. This
rifle also features both a bayonet and accessory lugs on the front sight block
and gas block. The SLR-104FR will be available in black stock set, desert sand
stock set, and with left-side folding metal stock. Included in the rifle are one 30round Bulgarian Arsenal Circle 10 magazine, sling, oil bottle, cleaning kit, and
cleaning rod. For more info: http://www.arsenalinc.com/usa/SLR-104FR.html .
retail price of MSRP: $1,099.

The case is carbon reinforced

toughness and durability.
Designed and Developed for Military Use
Luminox Recon 'Point Man'
"Recon" is the common military abbreviation for "Reconnaissance" and
describes the activity of exploratory survey through direct observation.
The most important feature is the
famous Luminox Tritium Gas
Illumination System. Using tiny glass
tubes, the number markers and hands
will NOT FADE during the night, as other
watches usually do. And you do not
need to "push a button" to read the
time perfectly. In fact, this watch will
glow brightly even if kept in total
darkness 24 hours a day. Luminox
actually guarantees the illumination for
10 full years!
Absolutely nothing is left to chance in a
watch that might be called on for
extraordinary service in the most
demanding of conditions.
Developed in coordination with Special
Forces Military Personnel
• The ultimate Swiss self-powered
illumination system that glows without
the need to push a button or expose to
light
The special ops personnel
assigned to recon must
determine the lay of the land, the
weather and condition and
especially the position and
strength of enemy forces. To do
this effectively, the recon soldier
must have the best equipment,
lightweight and nearly
indestructable. Working with
military personnel, Luminox
developed the "Point Man" to
fulfill these requirements. In a
military operation the "Point
Man" is the "tip of the spear." His
or her job is to safely conduct the
patrol to the designated target
through enemy territory. It is the
"Point Man" that determines the
marching speed, direction and
orientation of the reconnaissance
team.
The Luminox Recon "Point Man"
was developed with tools to assist
in patrolling tough terrain. This
watch features a second color
countdown zone on the dial. For
night use a second color of tritium
was used as shown to the left.
The watch has a unidirectional
ratcheting bezel calibrated in
minutes for precise timing of
events. Naturally it is highlighted
with a tritium tube at the zero
position.
• Illumination guaranteed for 10 years
Swiss made with multi-jewel Swiss
watch movements
• Walking Tachometer (measure distance
and speed traveled)
• Sun Compass
• Date Window
• Sapphire Crystal
• Water resistant up to 666 feet (200

• EXCLUSIVE: MOLLE (MOdular

Case shown above to the right
The watch also has a second fixed bezel with compass markings to use as a "sun
compass" for determining direction during daylight hours. Yet a third bezel is
housed under the sapphire glass crystal that is calibrated as a walking tachometer.
With this tool you can determine walking or hiking speeds and the time necessary
to cover the desired distance.
To insure toughness the watch is depth tested to 200 meters (or 660 feet) for water
resistance.

U.S. Survival AR-7
Since 1959, the venerable AR-7 has been the choice of U.S. Air Force pilots
who need a small-caliber rifle they can count on for survival should they have to
punch out over a remote area. Over the years, the AR-7's reputation for
portability, ease of operation and reliability has carried over to the civilian world
as well.Today, it's a favorite of bush pilots, backpackers and backcountry
adventurers who, like their Air Force counterparts, need a rifle that's easy to
carry but has the accuracy to reliably take down small game. Like the original
Henry US Survival Rifle, our latest take on this innovative, semi-automatic rifle is
lightweight (just 3.5 lbs) and highly portable. At just 16 ½" long (when all the
components are stowed), it fits easily into the cargo area of a plane or boat or in
a backpack. And because it's chambered in .22LR you can carry a large
quantity of ammunition, without adding much weight to your gear. When
disassembled, the pieces fit inside the impact-resistant, water-resistant stock.
Assembly is as easy as attaching the receiver to the stock, inserting the barrel
and screwing on the barrel nut. In just a few seconds, without the need for any
tools, the Henry U.S. Survival AR-7 is ready for action. The Henry U.S. Survival
AR-7 comes standard with a sturdy steel barrel covered in tough ABS plastic
and then coated with Teflon for complete protection against corrosion. Plus, it's
engineered for perfect balance and the ability to maintain its tack-driving
accuracy, even after thousands of rounds. Like the barrel, the receiver is also
coated with a layer of waterproof Teflon for superior weatherproofing,
waterproof protection, even in harsh salt water environments. The Henry U.S.
Survival AR-7 is available in Black and Camo finish. All models are equipped
with an adjustable rear sight and a blade front sight.
