01 REFINED SAVAGES
G-SPOT FIRE-STARTING KIT
MSRP: $50

As much as shooters like to debate the merits of Glocks versus other handguns, they also like to argue about the gap between the back-strap and magazine. While Glock grip plugs have been available for many years, Refined Savages found a way to fill that void — literally — with its G-Spot Fire-Starting Kit. It contains a ferro rod, a metal striker, flame-wicking cotton, and accelerant gel packs — all neatly tucked into a polymer wedge, which then inserts into the Glock’s grip. Turning your Austrian handgun into a survival tool in more than one way, the kit serves as a backup if your lighter dies or you’re unexpectedly stranded in the middle of nowhere this winter and need to get warm fast.
