About the Product
Empty Chamber Indicators by PlugrUSA
The primary focus of our small business is selling “top shelf” empty chamber indicators (ECIs) that promote and ensure firearm safety through highly visible, specialized, and reliable products.
The PlugrUSA “ECI” business revolves around a single, non-negotiable value proposition: instant, unambiguous proof that a firearm is unloaded and safe. Check and make sure the firearm is unloaded and flag it with one of our products.
Core Business Focus: Safety and Compliance
The entire business is built on fulfilling the need for firearm safety both on and off the range, and adherence to range or organization rules. Our primary focus areas are:
1. Visual Safety Assurance
The number one job of the product is to provide a non-verbal, highly visible confirmation that the firearm’s chamber is clear. With an eci in the firearm, the primary functions are to aid a shooter by:
- Eliminating Doubt: Preventing the devastating consequences of an accidental discharge by removing any ambiguity about a firearm’s condition.
- High Visibility: Emphasizing the bright, color-blind friendly colors (like blaze orange or yellow) and the flag’s physical obstruction, making the safe condition visible from a distance to the user, range officers, and fellow shooters.
2. Compliance with Range and Event Rules
Most reputable shooting ranges, clubs, and competitive events mandate the use of ECIs (also called chamber flags or open bolt indicators). The business focus is on:
- Meeting Standards: Clearly stating that its products meet or exceed the dimensional and material requirements of major shooting organizations (e.g., NRA, specific competition bodies).
- Targeting the Shooter Community: Positioning the product as an essential, required piece of gear for anyone participating in organized shooting activities.
The “Plugr” empty chamber indicator was first developed for the shotgun and then the AR. There are many eci’s in our lineup. . Gun safety is a must for anyone handling or around firearm’s. Need anything – just reach out and we will try to help
