CMMG Updates Mk9 with RADIAL DELAYED BLOWBACK Operating System

Tuesday, March 9th, 2021

Boonville, MO – CMMG’s oldest 9mm platform – the Mk9 – has now been upgraded to utilize CMMG’s patented Radial Delayed Blowback™ operating system in both BANSHEE and RESOLUTE configurations. Offering significantly less felt-recoil, Radial Delayed Blowback has proven to be superior to the old straight blowback design and this change completes CMMG’s transition to the new and better operating system.

CMMG’s Mk9 platform features a lower receiver with a dedicated magwell designed to accept Colt™ SMG – pattern magazines. The BANSHEE is offered as a pistol or short barreled rifle with barrel lengths of 5 or 8 inches in length, while RESOLUTE rifles come with a 16-inch barrel. Both the BANSHEE and RESOLUTE offer Last Round Bolt Hold Open.

Each CMMG Mk9 complete firearm ships with one 32-round DuraMag™ magazine and has a retail price of $1,099.95 to $1,449.95 for the BANSHEE and $1,199.00 to $1,699.95 for the RESOLUTE.

 

Along with offering complete Mk9 firearms and lower receiver groups that are designed to utilize Radial Delayed Blowback, CMMG will also offer Mk9 Upgrade Kits for those who already have an older CMMG Mk9 Lower Receiver. The Mk9 Upgrade Kits have all the parts needed to make an old Mk9 compatible with a CMMG 9mm Radial Delayed Blowback upper receiver.

On all CMMG BANSHEE and RESOLUTE 300 Series firearms, consumers can choose from ten Cerakote colors at no additional cost. Both the 100 and 200 Series offer Cerakote for the complete firearm for an additional $150 per model.

Defender Low Visibility Plate Carrier from FROG.PRO

Tuesday, March 9th, 2021

DEFENDER LOW VISIBILITY PLATE CARRIER – One plate Carrier for multiple situations.

The Defender Low Visibility Plate Carrier is launched, the new product with which the FROG.PRO brand enters the “under cover” category.

The Defender Low Visibility Plate Carrier was designed for those who need to wear rigid ballistic plates while maintaining a low profile silhouette, without giving up the chance to scale from a minimalist solution to a combat configuration.

With a weight of 710g (in size SM / MD) the Defender LVPC has a design studied to accommodate any type of rigid ballistic plates, such as SAPI, E-SAPI, Swimmer Cut, rectangular and more.

Thanks to the 4-way stretch elastic fabric in the inner part, the plate pouch can adapt in size to the ballistic protection carried and wrap it to minimize the bulk of the plate carrier.

For the same reason, the shoulder straps are made of 2” Class 2 webbing without added padding.

The supplied Low Visibility Elastic Cummerbund features a series of multi-role elastic pouches on each side that provide an inherently conforming pressure to the content that is reliable and repeatable.

The pouches can be used to carry a large variety of rifle magazines, civilian or military radios, smoke grenades, medical gear, or anything you can fit in.

The cummerbund can be replaced with other models that feature Velcro® hook and loop application and adjustment system.

The 5.56 Mag Velcro Insert triple pouch can hold 3 magazines for AR / M4 platform with minimum weight and bulk. The laser-cut Hypalon fabric, together with the elastic retention, ensure excellent magazine retention.

Thanks to the ITW Nexus® QASM buckles on the front, the Defender LVPC can be quickly equipped with front panels such as the Modular Reconnaissance Chest Rig or the Modular Reconnaissance Task Bag.

Buckles can be removed to eliminate any protrusions when used as a concealed body armour for undercover operations.

The Defender Low Visibility Plate Carrier is available in two sizes:

• the SM/MD size accommodates ballistic plates in Small or Medium size and the cummerbund features 3 elastic pockets per side

• the LG/XL size accommodates ballistic plates in Large or X-Large size and the cummerbund features 4 elastic pockets per side

www.frogpro.eu/en/plate-carriers/74-732-defender-low-visibility-plate-carrier

The modularity of the FROG.PRO equipment finds maximum expression in the two different configurations of the new plate carrier:

Defender Combat Kit

Defender Medic Kit

Configurations designed specifically for an “innovative” public, ready to face any situation with the right equipment.

Reptilia – 30mm AUS Mount

Monday, March 8th, 2021

Introducing the AUS Mount for 30mm diameter magnified optics, from Reptilia. Driven by the request of an end user group, the AUS Mount is the culmination of a 2 year development program. Like our DOT Mount line the AUS Mount attaches to any M1913 Picatinny rail via our anti-snag spring-loaded nitrided steel clamp and custom bolt mounting system which can be tightened with either a 5/32 hex or a flat blade driver to sit flush with the body of the mount for a low-profile, streamline design. Also like our DOT Mount line, the AUS mount is machined from a single piece of billet 7075-T6 aluminum and is finished with MIL-STD Type III, Class 2, hard anodize coating.

The AUS is compatible with all of our existing 30mm ROF line, and will be compatible with several new ROF products launching over the coming months.

Like all Reptilia products, the AUS Mount is 100% made in the USA and carries a full lifetime warranty against manufacturer defects. Additional heights and optic configurations coming soon!

FN Demonstrates Cutting-Edge Technology at 2021 Army Expeditionary Warrior Experiment

Monday, March 8th, 2021

(McLean, VA – March 8, 2021) FN America, LLC, maker of the world’s most battle-proven firearms®, is pleased to announce that the company has been selected to participate in the U.S. Army’s Expeditionary Warrior Experiment (AEWE), taking place March 9, 2021, at Fort Benning, Georgia.

Following a highly successful AEWE demonstration of the company’s emerging technology last December, FN will further exhibit their e-Novation suite of revolutionary weapon enablers that provide innovative and disruptive technology that resonate and align with the U.S. Army’s modernization efforts.

“For the past 130 years, FN has delivered small arms solutions to militaries worldwide. At the heart of our business is the goal of improving and enhancing solider capabilities,” said Mark Cherpes, President and CEO for FN America, LLC. “This demonstration for AEWE allows us to further showcase our newest technology that facilitates training solutions and enables new possibilities in battlefield situational awareness. We are looking forward to demonstrating these emerging technologies for the U.S. Army.”

“We are extremely proud to have been invited to demonstrate our e-Novation solutions,” said Todd Smith, Vice President for FN’s military operations. “FN leads the way in integrating enablers onto the weapon platforms and the technologies we are demonstrating at AEWE directly meet the U.S. military’s requirements and approach to Soldier as a System.” 

The Army Expeditionary Warrior Experiment (AEWE) assesses Cross Domain Maneuver (CDM) concepts and capabilities at the lower tactical echelon in support of Multi Domain Operations (MDO). The Experimentation Force (EXFOR) will employ mutually supporting lethal and nonlethal capabilities across multiple domains (air, land, space, and cyberspace), the electromagnetic spectrum, and the information environment to create a synergistic effect that increases relative combat power and provides overmatch. It is the Army’s primary venue for Small Unit modernization, providing capability developers, Cross Functional Teams (CFTs), PEO’s, Army Science and Technology (S&T) community, and industry a repeatable, credible, rigorous operational experiment supporting both concept and materiel development.

FN’s e-Novation product line encompasses solutions addressing marksmanship training, aiming devices and small arms management. To learn more on these products or FN’s full military portfolio, please visit fnamerica.com.
