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: Marlin Model 1895 Dark

If you think lever-action rifles should only have walnut stocks and a blued-metal finish, then the new Marlin Dark series with its polymer buttstock and aluminum AR-esque handguard probably won’t be your thing. That’s a shame, because this recent offering in Marlin’s line of modernized, capable lever-action rifles has a lot going for it in terms of performance, functionality and fun.
