Mossy Oak Graphics
www.mossyoakgraphics.comGun Skins are the simplest solution for hunters to camouflage their guns using pre-cut 3M cast vinyl kits. Armed with a hair dryer or heat gun, hunters can completely camouflage their gun while protecting its finish and making it waterproof.
JAKES Country Pro Staffer Ryan Wooten from Willow Brook, Ill., says, “I liked that the product covered the entire gun. The Mossy Oak graphics are very bright and realistic. I also liked that the pieces were already cut to the shape of the gun. The blow dryer [I used] wasn’t hot enough, so applying took some time. I recommend using a heat gun. Overall, the product was easy to use and it can increase the success of your hunt.”
TerraLUX
The TerraLUX LightStar 80 Aluminum Penlight features an 80-lumen LED. The flashlight will illuminate for five hours on two AAA batteries and weighs 2.1 ounces. It also features a rubber bite grip for hands-free use and multiple mode light switch for versatility.
JAKES Country Pro Staffer Joel Strickland from Edgefield, SC, says, “I’m enjoying my TerraLUX Lightstar 80. It comes in my favorite color orange. It is very bright for such a small flashlight. Although I don’t use the clip, some people will find it useful. It fits nicely in my pocket. I like the feel of the textured metal. It’s very durable for whatever outdoor adventure you undertake. The rubber grip at the end feels cool. There is nothing I would want to change about it. I would highly recommend this to a friend.”
Commando Hunting Products
www.commandthewild.comThe two-sided Sweet Talk Friction Call is produced from select hard maple. The density and tight grain of the hard maple allows Sweet Talk to emit a high-pitched raspy sound with very little effort.
JAKES Country Pro Staffer Michala Frederick from Lawrenceburg, Ken., says, “I really like the maple striker. The bell shape made it easier for me to use the call. The slate side was harder for me to get the call sounds right compared to the glass side. I would recommend this turkey call to my friends.”
