Viper Level Pro SD

Summit Treestands has debuted the Viper Level Pro SD, featuring Mossy Oak Elements Terra Gila. This climber is the first in the Viper line to feature EasyLevel dials. After climbing and getting settled on the tree, sometimes the tree-stand angle is not where it should be for the most comfortable hunting position. The EasyLevel dials make it possible to adjust the tree-stand angle while still attached to the tree.

In addition to the EasyLevel dials, the Viper Level Pro SD comes equipped with the Quick Draw PRO Cable Retention System for faster attachment to the tree. The FasTrack system makes it easy to add accessories to the stand, while Dead Metal SD (sound-deadening) Technology makes for a quiet climb.

The stand is an aluminum, closed-front climber that weighs 26 pounds and can hold a max weight of 300 pounds. The foam-padded seat and backrest are covered and concealed with Mossy Oak Elements Terra Gila camo pattern. This tree stand will fit trees from 8 to 20 inches around. Each includes a full-body fall arrest harness system and the necessary hardware to keep you safe.

Hardware Review: Browning BAR MK 4 Hunter

First, the Browning Automatic Rifle addressed in this article is not the renowned 1918 BAR of military fame. I’ve actually seen an American Rifleman editor hunt hogs with a reproduction 1918 BAR. While it was a spectacle to behold, it’s probably not the optimal choice for the deer woods, but hey, who am I to judge? The Browning BAR we’re talking about in this article is the iconic hunting rifle.
