ZCORR FSP bags inhibit rusting of properly stored firearms. The bag is impregnated with non-toxic chemicals that form a corrosion-preventing layer on metal surfaces that dissipates as soon as the firearm is removed from the bag; no cleaning necessary. The anti-corrosion remains effective for about five years if the bag is opened and closed frequently; up to 20 years for a bag that is not opened and closed often. Just slide clean gun into bag and close the Velcro seal. Contact: ZCORR Products, Dept. FFG, Heritage Packaging, 625 Fishers Run, Victor, NY 14564; (585) 742-3310; www.zcorrproducts.com
FoxPro Jack Attack remote-controlled motion decoy simulates two distressed animals at once to entice wary predators in close enough for you to make the shot. Simultaneously swings a bird topper that resembles a woodpecker while also moving a jack topper that imitates a rabbit or rodent. Remote control operates on/off, variable speed, and LED on/off for nighttime use (can also be operated manually). Has a jack for use with your FoxPro remote caller (if preferred). Breaks down for easy portability by simply removing the stake and toppers. Contact: FoxPro Inc., 14 Fox Hollow Drive, Lewistown, PA 17044; (717) 248-2507; www.gofoxpro.com

Tipton RAPID Deluxe Bore Guide Kit protects the chamber and bore during cleaning by reducing rod bowing and also prevents solvent leaking into the action. But what sets the RAPID apart from other bore guides is a unique patch insertion and retention device that holds patches in place by simply sliding a rear guide into a port. This allows easy solvent application and jag penetration; the patch releases as the rod is advanced forward. Accommodates patches from .17 to 45 caliber. In addition to the RAPID device, the kit includes: two guide tubes (one standard, one extra long), two chamber collars (one for bolt rifles, one for AR-15s), three brass muzzle guides, a 10/22 slip-on .920-inch muzzle guide, three tapered chamber guide tips, a rear guide tube end with solvent port, two pipettes for applying solvent, and a hard case to keep everything organized.

Estrus Whimper from Johnny Stewart Wildlife Calls can produce all of the sounds of a female coyote during breeding season, as well as the sounds of a coyote pup-in-distress. Coyotes are very territorial and when they hear the sound of a female being bred, they can’t resist coming in to challenge the “intruder.” The pup-in-distress call also triggers a strong response as they come in to protect a juvenile animal. The Estrus Whimper is built on the Mac Daddy platform, which makes it easy to operate. Simply blow into the call while depressing a lever, which puts pressure on the internal reed. When more pressure is applied, the pitch gets higher. Contact: Hunter’s Specialties, Dept. FFG, 6000 Huntington Court Northeast, Cedar Rapids, IA 52402; (319) 395-0321; www.hunterspec.com
