AUSA – LWRC International CSASS

Friday, October 7th, 2016

Although LWRC International didn’t submit a candidate for the US Army’s Compact Semi Automatic Sniper System solicitation, they did develop one. This is their solution.

Obviously, this 12″ gun is chambered in 7.62 NATO. Now get this, it has a 20 position gas block. You should be able to run just about any ammo, suppressed or unsuppressed. It’s a monoforged upper receiver with an LWRCi NiCorr treated spiral fluted barrel. The CSASS comes standard with LWRCi Skirmish Back-Up Iron Sights. The lower is fully ambidextrous including bolt catch and release, magazine release and selector lever. The trigger is a Geissele SSA Two-Stage Precision model.

MDM – Geissele Automatics Bayonet Mount

Thursday, September 29th, 2016

The M-4/16 has a bayonet lug just below the barrel due to a requirement that it has the ability to mount a bayonet. Unfortunately, that lug gets in the way when you want to use an extended handguard.

When Geissele was developing their submission for the cancelled M-4A1+ RFI, they decided to develop this Bayonet Mount which attaches to a Picatinny rail section at the bottom of a handguard.  

This frees up a lot of real estate.

Look for it at SHOT Show.

Sunday, September 18th, 2016

Our friends at Blind Owl Media reminded us about this video from our first range session with a Hodge Defense Systems Inc AU Mod-1. We were joined by TIG, which was founded by a close friend as he transitioned from the military to life in the defense contract business. It was a fun day.
