Alright guys, here is a quick side by side video so you can see the difference in colors and accessories. I’m pretty sure I list all of the differences but just in case I’m going to go ahead and list them here. We have different size backstraps on the MIAD grip kit, the FDE has the Medium and the ODG has the Large. The FDE has the enhanced trigger guard whereas the OD Green doesn’t. The Flat Dark Earth has the Magpul BAD Lever and the OD Green doesn’t. The Flat Dark Earth has the EOTech 551 N Type battery whereas the OD Green has the EOTech 512 AA battery. The Flat Dark Earth has Traction tape cut for the PMAG whereas the OD Green doesn’t. The Flat Dark Earth has a Yankee Hill Machine free float quad rail in the Specter length where as the OD Green has a Mil-Spec, none free float quad rail. The Flat Dark Earth has Tapco’s the low profile vertical grip and the OD Green has Tapco’s full size grip. The Flat Dark Earth has a Daniel Defense QD Swing Swivel mount whereas the OD Green uses the sling mount located on the stock front A2 sight. Onto sights, the Flat Dark Earth has Magpul’s MBUS back up front sight whereas the OD Green has the stock front sight. Also the Flat Dark Earth has the Latter Rail cover on top whereas the OD Green has nothing but Magpul’s XTM Rail covers. So this video is just to show you different options side by side so you can decide what you like better if you’re thinking about buying any of these accessories.

Post Falls, Idaho (PRWEB) December 20, 2011
Located at http://www.TraffiCalmSystems.com on the web. TraffiCalm Systems, a leader in the manufacture and worldwide distribution of traffic calming driver feedback signs, announced a new “Trade In/Trade Up” Program for older 3M flip-disk designed radar signs, to newer energy-efficient DriveBrite LED technology signs.
The program offers end-customers $ 500 off of the suggested list price on TraffiCalm Systems’ DriveBrite signs, and is available through TraffiCalm Systems’ nationwide network of distribution partners.
“There are literally thousands of the older 3M flip-disk signs out there, and while they might still be working, this ‘Trade In/Trade Up’ Program will help users save big dollars – especially when budgets are tight!” said Jan DeSantis, Business Development Manager for TraffiCalm Systems. “It also moves them into technology that offers more features, flexibility, and cost savings over the long run.”
The “Trade In/Trade Up” program is designed to make it easier for States, Cities, Municipalities, Departments of Transportation, or other agencies to move away from older electromechanical flip-disk devices and access new, lighter, more energy-efficient technology that is both more reliable and easier to install and service.
In addition, buyers will realize additional cost saving by not being required to ship back the older trade in units. Customers merely sign a decommissioning/elimination document with the retired unit’s serial number when issuing a PO for the new unit to one of TraffiCalm Systems’ distribution partners.
“As an added benefit, TraffiCalm Systems will ship the new DriveBrite units to their distribution partner, their installer, or directly to site within a standard ofin 5 working days.” added DeSantis. “This is a great opportunity for organizations and agencies to upgrade their traffic calming solutions while saving money!”
The goal of the “Trade In/Trade Up” Program is to offer Government & Law Enforcement, and those responsible for School Zone, Neighborhood & Pedestrian, or Work Zone safety a cost saving opportunity to acquire a newer more energy-efficient and effective solution.
Beginning immediately TraffiCalm Systems is providing quotes and taking “Trade In/Trade Up” Program orders through their Distribution Partners!
TraffiCalm Systems’ DriveBrite radar speed signs address the challenges and meet the needs of those seeking effective traffic calming solutions. With a comprehensive feature set and modular design DriveBrite signs are a smart choice for users seeking to move away from the older electromechanical technology to new units that are:
More Energy-efficient: Especially important in solar applications!
More Reliable & Durable: Because there are no mechanical moving parts!
Easier to Install and Service: Modular design does not require a technician, and are almost half the weight of the older units!
For additional information on TraffiCalm Systems’ “Trade In/Trade Up” Program or their DriveBrite driver feedback signs and traffic calming solutions, visit the website at; http://www.TraffiCalmSystems.com/products/ to contact a regional TraffiCalm Systems Distribution Partner, download current product specifications and brochures, research possible funding sources, and access traffic calming solutions and studies.
TraffiCalm Systems’ DriveBrite radar driver feedback signs are currently available in two sizes targeted for urban, and highway use, along with a remarkably affordable residential size sign due in the second quarter of 2012. All signs feature a selection of available intelligent power management options that make the signs ideal for use in a wide variety of settings along with solar options for areas of installation where direct power is not available or is cost prohibitive.
With DriveBrite signs information such as traffic volume, peak traffic hours, vehicle speeds, and more can be quickly downloaded directly via a wireless Bluetooth link that allows local law enforcement, public transit authorities, and local Department of Transportation (DOT) offices to make planning and enforcement decisions based on timely access to valuable traffic data.
