UF PRO Begins Producing Limited Quantity of Striker X BDUs in High-Performing French CCE Camo Pattern

Friday, March 25th, 2022

TRZIN, SLOVENIA (24 March 2022)—UF PRO today announced it will soon release limited numbers of its Striker X Battle Dress Uniform in France’s high-performance CCE camouflage pattern for dense European forests and similar environments.

CCE stands for Camouflage Centre-Europe in French and is considered ideal for concealment at mid- to long-distances in places lush with green and brown foliage (CCE’s pattern features a tan background overlaid with macro- and midi-elements of woodland shapes in green and brown).

Inspired by the U.S. Army’s Woodland pattern, CCE was introduced in 1991 and replaced France’s venerable TAP47 “lizard” camouflage, introduced in 1947. CCE has been standard-issue for French troops since 1994 and more recently has been adopted by Austrian and Indian forces.

The Striker X BDU consists of three pieces: combat pants, combat shirt, and boonie hat.

Embracing a radical rethinking about trouser design, the Striker X Combat Pants are constructed to meet the rigorous demands of military special-forces units for which extreme ruggedness, reliable protection surrounding the knees, and super-spacious and intelligently configured pockets are crucial.

Meanwhile, the Striker X Combat Shirt (like the combat pants) is built to withstand punishing use, a seeming impossibility given its exceptionally comfortable softness. The explanation is that the torso material (known as Lizard/Skin) is constructed from Lyocell/polyamide-knitted fabric reinforced with ceramic dots for tremendous abrasion resistance.

The Striker Gen.2 Boonie Hat has mesh ventilation openings front and back to allow the free circulation of air on hot, sunny days. Other vital features include adjustable fit, adjustable brim shape, and an inside-the-crown hidden pocket for holding cash, a passport, and other small documents or objects.

UF PRO did not disclose the exact number of Striker X BDUs it plans to print in CCE, but indicated the quantity would be limited.

Faxon Firearms Building 8.6 BLK Barrels

Wednesday, March 23rd, 2022

BLUF: Faxon Firearms has collaborated with Q to build the highest quality 8.6 BLK barrels for Remington 700 and AR10 platforms. Read up.

(CINCINNATI, OH) Faxon Firearms

It should come as no surprise that Faxon Firearms is developing barrels compatible with the new 8.6 Blackout ammunition. After all, the Ohio-based manufacturer has always been at the forefront of barrel development.

Now they’ve combined Faxon Firearms barrel expertise with the science and innovation of Q to come up with an extraordinary and formidable package.

Here is everything you need to know about the new 8.6 Blackout round, how it compares to 300 Blackout, and the radical new barrel design by Faxon Firearms.

What is 8.6 Blackout?

The 8.6 BLK round was imagined and developed by Q. Like the 300 Blackout, the 8.6 Blackout was designed primarily for suppressed shooting, but there are supersonic loads in development as well.

The easiest thing to do might be to imagine 8.6 BLK as the 300 BLK’s big brother – but as far more than just a simple upgrade.

8.6 BLK Features

• Fits AR-10 Sized Rifles

• 338 Subsonic Load Based around the 300 grain Sierra Match King

• Similar to 338 Federal; however, the case was shortened to work reliably with gas guns without modification to mags.

• Uses Standard 308 Mags

• Low-Pressure Cartridge

• Utilizes a shortened 6.5 Creedmoor case for the use of subsonic and high BC projectiles

• Current Ammo Companies in Development: Gorilla, Hornady, Black Hills, and Discreet Ballistics

• Designed Around a 12? barrel

Faxon Firearms has previously shown several 8.6 Blackout loads with a 300-grain bullet and a 210 grain Barnes TTSX bullet. These loads are still in development but should become commercially available in the foreseeable future.

How is Faxon Firearms Involved?

Faxon Firearms has been privileged to work with Q on developing the best possible barrels to support this revolutionary new round. The team at Faxon Firearms is in the development of their own 8.6 BLK barrels for both the AR-10 and Remington model 700 platforms.

Faxon Barrels for the 8.6 BLK

Faxon Firearms will be offering 1:3 twist barrels chambered in 8.6 Blackout for Remington 700 platforms and AR-10 pattern rifles. The barrels for both platforms will be available in 8?, 12?, and 16? length options.

Faxon Firearms 8.6 BLK barrel Details

• 1:3 twist rate

• Better stabilization on long and heavy subsonic rounds

• Better expansion of the projectiles

• Re-allocates the energy from the sound and flash to the rotation of the bullet

• .875 gas block journal for AR10

• DPMS Gen 1 Pattern

Remage style barrels from Faxon will use a Remage style nut with a standard AR-15 armorers castle nut wrench. The nut is included.

Why is the 1:3 Twist Rate Important?

Faxon Firearms is manufacturing the barrels for these 8.6 Blackout loads. These barrels are not by any means your standard rifle barrel. Designing and manufacturing them can be challenging, but Faxon Firearms has confidently stepped up to the plate. To properly stabilize the long and heavy 300-grain subsonic projectiles, the 8.6 blackout barrels must have a 1:3 twist rate. That means the round is making one full rotation every three inches of barrel length.

This helps the 8.6 caliber cartridge re-imagine energy on target.

Faxon Firearms’ Barrels are slated to launch around late June or early July of 2022. The ammunition will also launch right around the same time. For more information on the 8.6 blackout project and to be notified about the availability of Faxon barrels, proceed to the Faxon Firearms 8.6 BLK page. It is dedicated to the Q collaboration.

Could the MCK Conversion Kit Get Any Better? Meet the MCK GEN3

Wednesday, March 23rd, 2022

Based on the wildly popular MCK GEN 1 and 2 Conversion Kits, the MCK GEN3 is the ultimate combination of engineering innovation AND customer feedback.

Pompano Beach, Fla. (March 2022) – CAA USA, designers, and developers of the world-famous MCK/Micro Conversion Kit, is pleased to inform its loyal and new customers that the latest generation of the MCK, incorporating all the latest technologies and wish-list features, is now available in the new MCK GEN3.

Dynamic new features on the MCK GEN3 include:

• MCK “Car Wash System”

• Ability to use MCK with Micro Red Dot slide-mounted optic installed on a pistol

• Ability to aim and shoot with the RMR while attached to slide inside the MCK

• Stabilizer height adjustability

• Ambidextrous folding stock right AND left

• New charging handle system

• New easily removable front adaptor

• Removeable rear and front top Picatinny rails

• Able to use a larger 1.57” suppressor on the pistol

LTC. (Ret.) Mikey Hartman, CEO of CAA USA, explained the thought process behind the new MCK GEN3 Conversion Kit. “Each new generation MCK we make we try to incorporate intelligent suggestions that we get from our loyal customers and fans: the MCK GEN3 was no different. The fact that not only can you now insert your handgun with a red dot slide mounted optic, but you can also aim with it via the MCK, there will be no need to disassemble your optic as you had to do in previous generations. The internal cleaning mechanism along with the dual folding Stabilizer/Stock make the Gen 3 the best conversion kit we ever have made.”

One of the top items on the MCK wish list was a way to keep the red dot optic integrated on the pistol while incorporating it into the conversion kit. The MCK GEN3 chassis not only allows a seamless and perfect fit of the optic-mounted pistol, but the user will not have to zero the optic when using it with the conversion kit. Simply insert, lock, and the user is ready, pistol-mounted optic and all.

Another common concern was the fouling of the slide during operation and the need to remove the pistol for cleaning more often than desired. CAA’s engineers and designers have come up with a brilliant solution, the CAA “Car Wash System.” Similar to drive-through car washes, the built-in pistol cleaning system uses a brush/bristle system to clean the front of the slide during cycling, removing carbon build-up, without damaging the slide’s finish.

Speaking of cleaning, the new front adaptor now shields the internal parts of the MCK from any carbon build-up. Plus, the adaptor is easily removed for cleaning.

While the stabilizer/stock on the MCK Conversion Kits is unique and the best in the nation, CAA’s left-hand customers weren’t being serviced. Now, the stabilizer/stock on the MCK GEN3 is ambidextrous, folding either right or left, and can be fired while folded for immediate response to a threat. The MCK GEN3 stabilizer/stock not only folds left or right but also adjusts in height. Two height options are available: one (lower position) option for using when shooting with an RMR/slide-mounted optic, and two (upper position) when employing any type of red dot/optic on the top of the Picatinny rail.

Additional new features found only on the MCK GEN3 include a new charging handle system that uses a backplate adaptor, thus negating the reliance on the slide serrations to cycle the handgun; removable rear and front top Picatinny rails that allow the user to better customize their MCK GEN3 chassis; and an improved spare magazine holder that operates with a magazine catch and magazine release button.

“The MCK GEN 1 and 2 took America by storm,” Hartman continued. “We will continue to bring new models to the market every two months while continuing to maintain the title of the most popular handgun Conversion Kit in the world!”

For more information on the new MCK GEN3 Conversion Kit, see the video on CAA USA’s YouTube page.
