NY State Banned Rifle Features
Tuesday, January 29th, 2013Geissele Automatics SHOT Show Follow Up
Tuesday, January 29th, 2013In this week’s Canipe Correspondence, he mentioned four new products from Geissele Automatics. Fortunately, our friend SMG Lee took some great photos of these items.
Geissele SMR MKIV rail. I was an early adopter of the Geissele hand guard for the HK416, and I have a few each of the MKI and MKII rails for the AR series. The MKIV version utilizes a lightened barrel nut and a slimmed down hand guard that is skeletonized to remove all unneeded material, while still maintaining the strength the previous variants are known for. It has fixed rails at the front where you need them, QD cups for sling attachment, and is trimmed down for a low profile and firm grip everywhere else. They also showed a new gas block that will be my new standard, and a Glock optic mount and magazine well under their ALG brand. Look for those soon as well.
First off is the new gas block.
Here you can compare the new Mk IV rail with the Super Rail released last year.
And here it is from the top.
SMG Lee had this to say about the new rail –
Few points of interest…
1. the enlarged cooling slots are to reduce weight while not giving up any rigidity
2. the new collar for the lock bolts are design to be foolproof, so if you happen to strip the threads on the locking collar, you can always have it replaced instead of having to replace the entire rail.
3. the light weight barrel nut has been through a patented anodizing process that is only used in high friction automotive components, this process enable Geissele to produce a lighter and more durable end product.
4. Build in sling QD swivel points
5. Relief cuts all around the rail to lighten even more weight.
6. the rail to receiver interface are redesigned to maintain the rigid interface but at the same time reduce more weight.Overall, this is one of the BEST rail design i have seen in a long time, it is definitely worth your investment for your next carbine build.
Next up is the new 6 Second Mount named, according to SMG Lee, by a…
unit that conduct a lot of hostage rescue work. this was requested for work in long and confined hallway such as a fuselage….6 second to get in and engaged and eliminate threat on demand…..
And here is the new Magwell.

SHOT Show – Centurion Arms
Friday, January 18th, 2013
Centurion Arms has introduced a new rail for 7.62 guns. It is a round modular fire arm that incorporates a full length Picatinny rail along the top. It utilizes a proprietary nut to attach, leaving a free float barrel. In addition to positions that accept rail sections where you want them, the rail also features QD sling attachment points at the barrel and receiver ends of the fore end. This first run is for the DPMS system but look for Stoner- style system compatability soon. Also a slightly scaled down version for the 5.56 is in the works.
Centurion also offers their own attachment for the SureFire Scout Light. It is reversible and mounts directly to the rail. In fact, you don’t require a Picatinny rail section to attach most accessories. And they are working toward eliminating redundant, unneeded 1913 rail segments wherever possible.

Shooting the Newly Unveiled DDM4 Integrally Suppressed Rifle
Tuesday, January 15th, 2013
At today’s SHOT Show Media Range Day I was one of the first to be able to shoot the new DDM4 Integrally Suppressed Rifle (ISR) from Daniel Defense. With this gun you are essentially getting two Tax Stamps for the price of one; a Suppressor and SBR.
Daniel Defense designed this new carbine to accept the increasingly popular .300 AAC round. They combined a pistol-length gas system with a 10.3″ Cold Hammer Forged barrel that features a permanently mounted 5.7″ suppressor (with removable baffle core) that together, bring the overall barrel length to just over 16″. They do this by threading and welding the suppressor to the gas block. The gas block is then in turn, mounted with a spiral roll pin and welded in place to the barrel.
Shooting was smooth and quiet. What more can I say, I only got to shoot 20 rounds through it. Hopefully, I will be spending more time with one in the near future. Although I was able to fire a full-auto model, this is obviously not a transferable option. Look for the DDM4 ISR to ship in April in semi-auto.
StraightJacket Barrel System from Teludyne Tech Ind
Sunday, January 13th, 2013The StraightJacket Barrel System from Teludyne Tech Ind is a thermal management technology that conducts heat away from the barrel and increases barrel rigidity resulting in increased accuracy and service life.
Comparative analysis of the Teludyne URG1 placed side by side to a match grade M4 resulted in cold bore accuracy improving by 75% right out of the box, and after firing 120 rounds in 2 minutes, accuracy improved by 671%. Subsequently, at 600 meters, the URG1 grouped at 7.07 inches versus the match grade M4s 54 inches tested 15 minutes after 220 rounds of rapid fire. A thorough validation of TTI’s accuracy claims has been conducted, documented and published by both TTI and by H.P. White Laboratory, Inc.
In addition to incorporating this technology into a wide variety of weapons applications including for the US Olympic Biathlon team, Teludyne has released the Sine Pari Upper Receiver Group in both carbine and SBR lengths. Additionally, it integrates their Muzzle Recoil Compensator.
