Here are some suggestions for the prepper / gun lover in your life.

Gifts for the AR15

BCM Bolt – One of the best AR bolts money can buy

Rainier arms charging handle – We have used both this and the BCM Gunfighter and we think this is a better allaround piece of kit although more expensive

Umbrella Corporation Weapons Research Group Grip 23 – The best grip we have come across if you like a more aggressive grip angle

BCMGUNFIGHTER Compensator MOD 0 – Best comp for the money hands down

Magpul MOE handguards – Looking to upgrade your ARs stock handguards? Best bang for your buck and weight if it’s for a carbine or mid-length rifle

B5 Systems Bravo stock – super lightweight, affordable rock solid stock with a great cheek weld

IWC QD mount – Add a QD mount up frount. The IWC QD Mount is the perfect addition to the Magpul MOE handguards

INFORCE WML – Need a light for your rifle? The WML is the perfect gift. See our review here

Mueller Speed Shot Rifle Scope – Its a red dot and a 4x power scope. Extremely affordable variable illuminated optic with 5 star reviews. Great option for a dual purpose hunting/battle rifle AR like a 300 Blackout

 

Gifts for the AK47 / 74

US Palm Grip – A truly awesome replacement AK grip. Fills your hand and lets you easily hold the rifle one handed.

CNC Warrior / Bonesteel folding stock – Bullet proof folding stock that has no issue breaking down doors. Check out our review here

Rifle Dynamics complete AK upgrade “bolt on” package – This is all in one solution to upgrade your AK. I would love this as a gift. Everything you need to modernize your AK.

Magpul MS3 sling – We have a pile of slings but we keep coming back to the MS3. Simple, durable, and cheap, plus it has the option to be a 1 point or a 2 point. Great sling for your AK

Jim Fuller AK DVD: Armorer’s Bench – Learn to work on your AK. From fixing, to upgrading parts this is a great DVD to have on the shelf to learn how to do the majority of AK gunsmithing on your own

 

Gifts for the GLOCK

Vickers Gen 4 mag release – Simple swap out for your Gen 4 GLOCK and is a great upgrade

Vickers Gen 3 mag release – Simple swap out for your Gen 3 GLOCK and is a great upgrade

HST / GLOCK Triggers Skimmer trigger – Great carry trigger. See our review here 

Pelican Case for air travel – Need a case to transport your carry pistol on a plane. This is a great no frills case that is cheap and just the right size for a pistol and a mag or two.

Raven Concealment quick ship holster – The best outside the waistband holster on the market and now you can get them without the wait.

HST INCOG Holster – We really like this inside the waistband holster that allows for deep concealment. See our review here

 

Survival gear gifts

Morakniv Bushcraft Carbon Fixed Blade Knife – Excellent affordable fixed blade knife that we think is a better option then the Moras. Review here 

Helotex G2 Tactical Flashlight – We have been buying these lights for years from Gun Shack as they have been ultra reliable, take AA batteries and are cheap. Great light to have in every drawer in the house.

Husqvarna 450 18-Inch 50.2cc X-Torq 2-Cycle Gas Powered Chain Saw – If you live in a rural area you need a chainsaw. For the price this Husqvarna is an excellent option. The saw has plenty of power and can take a 20″ bar if need be.

 Fiskars 7853 X17 23-1/2-Inch Splitting Axe – You will need a way to split all the wood you are going to chop up with the Husqvarna. This Fiskars slitting axe is an amazing piece of technology. You can quickly split wood with little effort with the Fiskars. Trust us, its much easier than a slitting maul.

Etón American Red Cross Microlink Self-Powered AM/FM/NOAA Weather Radio – Awesome emergency radio to have at the house or in a bug out bag. Has solar charging along with a crank charger and is much smaller than it looks.

Kaito KA200 Pocket AM/FM Radio – This is a simple super small pocket radio that’s great for a bug out bag. See our review here 

Gorilla Tape – Best duck tape on the market hands down and is a must have survival item for BOB, car, and house.

Aquamira Frontier Emergency Water Filter System – This is a super compact emergency water filter that has gotten us out of some tough situations. Great compact item to have in your BOB.

UST Strike Force Fire Starter – You will need a way to start a fire and the UST throws a ton of sparks. Make a good birds nest and let the UST give you all the sparks you will need to get a fire up and roaring.

NATO Utility Jerry Can 5 Gallon – Need fuel storage? These are the real deal with welded seems and a tough powder coating. These our our number one way to store fuel

Adventure Medical Kits SOL Escape Bivy – Great emergency bivy / shelter on the cheap for your car or bug out bag

Mountain House Just In Case Bucket – 29 emergency meals that have a shelf life of 25 years

Amazon Prime – This is one of the best gift you can give for emergency preparedness. You can get any Amazon prime item in 24 hours for $3.99. I know several people who used this option as a life saver when hurricane Sandy was headed their way. They had three days to prepare and they could order a ton of stuff  from amazon and the UPS man had it to their door the next day. The rest of the time 2 day shipping is free + you get unlimited instant streaming of thousands of movies and TV shows with Prime Instant Video.
