TRUGLO TRU-BRITE 30 Series
TRUGLO TRU-BRITE 30 Series illuminated compact rifle scopes are a perfect pairing for AR-15/AR-10 platform rifles. The 30mm tube enhances brightness in either 1-4x24mm or 1-6x24mm variable zoom magnification. Multi-coated lenses assure clarity and contrast even in difficult shooting light. True one-power magnification provides a field of view so wide you may shoot with both eyes open. Generous 3.75-inch eye relief. Leaf spring click adjustments for windage and elevation. Shock resistant to 1000g. Waterproof and fog-proof with nitrogen-gas fill. The 1-6x24mm includes a quick zoom lever. Both models come with a reversible monolithic tactical mount CNC-machined from aircraft-grade aluminum. Also includes two pre-calibrated BDC turrets in .223 (55-grain) and .308 (168-grain) to engage targets up to 800 yards away. MSRP for the 1-4x $184; for the 1-6x $270.

FoxPro Crooked Spur with its innovative hand-fitted ergonomic shape allows consistent, comfortable calling with either hand from the same pot-type turkey call. Make a variety of realistic hen and gobbler sounds by simply striking different areas of the surface to vary the pitch. Convince a wary old tom that a harem awaits with soft and subtle purrs, putts and tree yelps. Or crank it up with loud cuts, clucks and yelps that reach out to distant gobblers. Sound ports on the top and bottom provide maximum volume and sound distribution. Available in slate or glass. Comes with a solid one-piece striker. Proudly made in the USA. MSRP $39.95. Contact: FoxPro, Dept. FFG, 14 Fox Hollow Dr., Lewistown, PA 17044; (717) 248-2507; www.gofoxpro.com

At the lower range of magnification either can substitute for a handheld binocular; or use with a mount. Close focus feature for objects as close as 10 feet away satisfies birding requirements. ED lens optical system produces sharp, clear images with well-managed color. Waterproof and nitrogen-filled to protect against wet weather and humidity.

Ameristep Shifter Blind kicks up the concealment with two rows of sewn-in perimeter brush loops, additional sewn-in loops on the roof and corners, and eight sections of shock-cord that can be connected to hubs or stake loops to hold even more branches and stalks. Stout frame supports the weight of all that added camouflage with a two-piece stamped steel Spider Hub System that won’t crack like cast metal hubs. Dual Window Curtain System with split magnetic curtain and toggle window design allows the top or bottom of each window curtain to be opened or closed quickly and quietly. Full-coverage mesh windows; built-in shooting ports for firearm or crossbow. Large corner windows with shoot-through mesh. Kryptek Highlander camouflage pattern on iron-tough yet soft and quiet Durashell Plus fabric—a dull, lightweight woven polyester that won’t reflect light. Inside hunters disappear against a black ShadowGuard coating. Footprint 59x59”, height 67”, shooting width 75”, weight 16 lbs. MSRP $179.99. Contact: Ameristep, Dept. FFG, 431 E.

Berkley Fusion19 hooks come in nine bass-specific designs including EWG (extra-wide gap), superline EWG, weedless EWG, weighted EWG, offset worm, dropshot, heavy cover, swimbait and weighted swimbait.

Combined with a technologically advanced polymer coating called Slickset™, they penetrate with less force to catch more fish. The resealable clam package includes easy-to-read keys that identify which soft baits work best with each hook. Smoke satin finish. MSRP $3.99 to $5.99 in counts from four to eight hooks per package.
