Trigger Guards – OTG vs KAC – Updated
Tuesday, May 21st, 2013Sneak Peek – OTG AR Trigger Guard
Monday, May 20th, 2013Off The Grid Concepts LLC gave us a sneak peek at their upcoming trigger guard for AR-style rifles. Production variants will be CNC’d from aluminum and will be a little more rounded. And, as you will notice, it fills in the gaps left by mil-spec guards.
You might notice the interesting geometry. According to OTG’s Rob Tran, “The hexed relief in the middle is a ideal point of rest for your finger during high port or if you reload muzzle up you can rest on the ledge.”
BHI Offers A Handy Sling Attachment Tip
Thursday, May 9th, 2013Blackheart International offered this sling attachment tip.
It’s something we see all too often, and it drives us crazy…people attaching their rifle sling to the inside of their stock. Slings should be attached to the outside of the stock (the trigger hand side of the rifle). Doing so allows the stock to fit tight into the shoulder when the shooter’s support arm takes up the slack in the sling. A tight fit into the shoulder will provide much more stable shooting geometry and improved accuracy than if the sling is mounted on the inside of the stock. When the sling is adjustable, as in the case with the BHI Quick-Adjust Weapon Sling, stability and accuracy is further enhanced.

Magpul Introduces the MBUS Pro
Monday, April 29th, 2013
This week, Magpul Industries is introducing the MBUS Pro front and rear back up sight featuring all steel construction. They are freaking awesome. Right out of the gate, I know some of you are going to say that they ripped off this company or that company. Ok, got it. Now, check the price. MSRP for the Front is $84.95 and Rear is $104.95.
Naturally, they are Mil Std 1913 compatible and feature positive detents for both up and down functions. Additionally, they are narrow so that they won’t get in the way of other devices such as lasers.
The MBUS Pro front sight integrates a rotary-style elevation adjustment knob so no more tools and stows just .432″ above the rail height with standard AR front sight height when deployed for use.
The Rear MBUS Pro is dual aperture and adjustable for windage.
The Rear Sight is .375″ above the rail when stowed and extends to full AR height when in use.
Look for a formal announcement soon from www.Magpul.com.

Magpul Releases New Products
Thursday, April 4th, 2013Magpul has just released several new products including the PMAG 10 AR/M4 GEN M3, MS4 Dual-QD Sling, and the AR/M4 GEN M3 –5 and –10 limiters.
After several years stuck in development while we worked on the standard-capacity GEN M3 magazine technology, the PMAG 10 GEN M3 is finally shipping. The PMAG 10 AR/M4 GEN M3 is a 10-round 5.56×45 NATO (.223 Remington) polymer magazine for AR15/M4 compatible weapons. Incorporating new material technology and manufacturing processes for enhanced strength, durability, and reliability, the PMAG 10 provides next-generation performance for those needing lower profile magazines.
Filling the same mission requirement as the standard MS3 Sling, the MS4 can quickly switch between one-point and two-point configuration. The MS4 maintains webbing material construction and specifications identical to that of the standard MS3, but features a melonite-finished steel D-ring and two heavy-duty push-button QD sling swivels rather than the Magpul Paraclips. This modification allows compatibility with QD sling cups commonly found on lower receivers, receiver end plates, buttstocks, and many low-profile forward QD Sling mounts, including the Magpul RSA-QD.
PMAG AR/M4 GEN M3 MINUS 5 AND MINUS 10 ROUND LIMITERS
The PMAG Round Limiters install in 10, 20, or 30 round GEN M3 magazines, reducing the magazine capacity by 5 or 10 rounds. Designed for sporting and hunting applications, installation of the Limiter is simple, tool-less, and requires no permanent modification of the magazine body.
