Our gift guide will be updated daily through Christmas, so remember to check back for the latest and best deals on guns, gear and accessories!
It’s the season of giving, but let’s be honest, it’s also the season of taking advantage of some of the year’s best sales to treat yourself to some toys you’ve had your eye on. Whether you’re looking to stuff your family’s stockings or your own, we’ll be updating this guide daily through Christmas to keep you in the loop on some of the best discounts that online purveyors of gun gear and tactical goodies have to offer.
Editor’s Top Picks
Century Arms CA-3
It’s been a long time since a battle rifle like this has been available for such a low price. Is it the absolute best G3 clone you can buy? No, but for only $660, it’s hard to say no to adding this Cold War classic to your arsenal. Surplus mags are still cheap as dirt, so feeding it a steady diet of 7.62 NATO will be the priciest part of the equation. I still think it’s a deal too good to pass up.
KOMMANDOSTORE Heat Rig
If you’re a serious gun guy, there’s a good chance that Heat is one of your favorite movies. If you’ve ever wanted to LARP as Val Kilmer in the streets of L.A., or just want a slick way to carry 8 AR mags close to your body, KOMMANDOSTORE’s reproduction is as sexy as it is practical. Some others on the market feel like Halloween costumes, but this one is quality and built tough enough for actual use and is currently $20 off! The only downside is you’ll want to buy a gray suit and a balaclava next.
Blue Force Gear Vickers Sling
This is my favorite sling, hands down. I use them on all my rifles and expect I’ll only need more as time goes on. Slings aren’t that exciting, but a good quick-adjust like this is one of the best upgrades you can give a long gun. If you’re still rocking old-school two-point slings on your rifles, for just $65, a Vickers sling will be one of the simplest yet most appreciated gifts you can give yourself or a loved one.
Best Black Friday Deals
Guns
Ruger RXM
While still relatively new to the market, seemingly everyone has been impressed by the Ruger RXM. It might be the current best Glock 19 clone on the market, and for only $370, it’s hard to imagine buying a competing model instead. This is a stellar deal.
PSA PA-15
If you don’t already own an AR-15, it’s well beyond time to change that. With prices this low, there’s simply no excuse. PSA has several models on offer at bargain prices, but this 16-inch model with Magpul furniture and iron sights comes with everything you need right out of the box.
Kel-Tec P15 Metal
The standard Kel-Tec P15 is incredibly lightweight at only 16 ounces, but for only 3 ounces more, you can get this metal-framed version that looks far cooler. The steep $250 discount makes it all the more tempting.
Optics & Accessories
Holosun DRS Night Vision
If you’ve been wanting one of Holosun’s night vision digital red dot optics, this is about as affordable as they’ve been since they were first launched. They’re still not cheap, but the $350 discount makes it a lot lighter on the wallet. For the technology you’re getting, this is a great deal.
B5 Systems AR Stock, Pistol Grip and Vertical Grip
B5 Systems makes great furniture, and for only $70, this is a no-brainer upgrade for any of your ARs that are still wearing the M4 stock and grip they came with. The aggressive texture means your hand will never slip, and the convenient storage compartment in the grip gives you somewhere to stash your sugar plums.
Miscellaneous
CRKT Folding Razel Liner Lock
This is one of CRKT’s best-selling knives, and it’s available now for almost 50 percent off! It’s sharp, opens fast and the Micarta grip looks as good as it feels.
Infinity Target Set
Whatever you’re shooting, .22 LR to .50 BMG, these self-healing targets have a lot of advantages over steel or cardboard. During these holiday deals, you can get a free 2/3-scale Infinity Target with the purchase of a full-size one. They have a few other deals running too, so take a look if you want to enhance your training.
