Leatherman – MUT

Manufacturer: Leatherman (USA)
Type: Multi tool


Leatherman – MUT

I’ve been carrying a Leatherman Super Tool for almost 10 years now. Still works well. But when I saw the MUT at Shotshow 2010, it was a highly anticipated release for me.

Sufficed to say, as a multi tool it has a ton of functions. Below is the Shotshow 2010 video of the MUT, which is slightly more AR15 centric then the current marketing video.

Tools:

  • 420HC Stainless Steel Clip Point Combo Straight/Serrated Knife
  • Needle nose Pliers
  • Regular Pliers
  • 154CM Replaceable Wire Cutters
  • 154CM Replaceable Hard-wire Cutters
  • Stranded Wire Cutters
  • Saw
  • Hammer
  • Replaceable Cutting Hook
  • Bolt Override Tool
  • Replaceable Firearm Disassembly Punch
  • Replaceable Carbon Scraper Cleaning
  • Rod/Brush Adapters
  • Carabiner Clip
  • Bottle Opener
  • Large Bit Driver
  • Electrical Crimper
  • INCLUDED BITS: Phillips #1-2 and 3/16, Phillips #2 and 1/4 Screwdriver, Torx #15 and Hex 7/64


Leatherman – MUT Compared with Super Tool (Circa 2001)

So far, the punch and cleaning rod adapters work well. They give an added leverage point when using my Otis cleaning tools. I like the fact the the cutter blades are replaceable. Very ingenious way they hold all the bits in 3 areas of the tool. 1 handed opening of knife blade is a nice improvement to early Leatherman tools. The MOLLE pouch is nice and holds the additional 1/2" and 3/8" wrench. But again, I’ve only had it a day. Will update more as I use more of the tools.

FN TPS


FN-TPS Standard Configuration

These FN TPS’ were assembled by Scottsdale Gun Club and SGCUSA from the final parts that FNH USA built for the TPS shotgun product line.

Built to exceed every shooter’s expectations, the FN TPS comes with standard features other manufacturers consider optional. The FN Tactical Police Shotgun is a great crossover tool for those already trained in or accustomed to the M16 rifle family. This shotgun has the advantages of a FN Internal Tactical Choke (ITC), M1913 rail and adjustable stock that will adjust to fit most shooters, with or without body armor.


FN-TPS Standard Configuration

I do love it in the standard configuration. There are a few issues I do have though:

  • Safety Button far forward of the trigger.
  • AR style trigger guard supports, made from polymer.
  • Even though Iron Sights are raised, still a very tight cheek weld to view down them.


FN-TPS Ninja Configuration

I had 1 more batch of Shotshow/Magpul demo products to put on something. Added the following:

  • Magpul – MIAD Grip
  • Magpul – ASAP Rear Sling Adapter
  • Magpul – CTR Stock
  • Stag Arms – Mil Spec Buffer Tube
  • Tacstar – Side Saddle

I can’t believe they shipped this with a Commercial size buffer tube… Luckily, Riflegear had a Mil-Spec Buffer Tube for p/u today.

I’m not a big fan of the Tacstar Side Saddles design. It’s a shame Mesa Tactical doesn’t offer any FN TPS saddles yet. Not sure how long I will keep it on.
