SHOT Show 18 – Velocity Systems Scarab DLX

Friday, January 26th, 2018

The Scarab DLX is the latest addition to the popular Scarab armor carrier line From Velocity Systems.

As you can see, it is SwiftClip compatible. But also, front and rear, the vest utilizes Trilor Grid. It is PALS compatible and the triangular shape is stronger than standard slots. Additionally, it displaced more weight than standard laser cut slots. This full carrier only weighs 1.5 lbs dry.

It incorporates their patented swivel shoulder system.

However, the biggest thing about the Scarab DLX is the internal suspension system which is adjustable by the user for the amount of stand off from the body.

The mesh suspension offers cooling properties as well as an air gap between the armor and body. This air gap can really mean the difference when shot. It has resulted in up to 56% reduction in back face deformation during NIJ testing.

SHOT Show 18 – SureFire Optimized Bolt Carrier

Friday, January 26th, 2018

When we last told you about the SureFire Advanced Rifle Operating Core and Optimized Bolt Carrier we weren’t sure when it would be available commercially. But SureFire had the OBC on display at SHOT Show and told us the first run are just finishing up production.

While the entire AROC consists of an enhanced Bolt Carrier Group, Barrel Extension, Buffer and Spring, the OBC is a drop-in Bolt Carrier Group which fits ~~both piston and~~ DI ARs.

The OBC features an internal weight which is spring loaded in both directions. This, along with the other elements, combine to offer additional travel time. When the Bolt is at the end of its stroke while using a Mil-Spec BCG, it takes 28 milliseconds for the bolt to travel back into battery. With the OBC, it’s 38 milliseconds. That slight difference is signifigant, especially when firing full auto or suppressed, or both. You’ll also notice that the gas key has a single screw. It comes with a 2 oz H2S buffer and an included Action Spring offers additional tension.

Nemesis Arms has the ANSR to the SOCOM Advanced Sniper Rifle

Friday, January 26th, 2018

For the past 11 years David Ives at Nemesis Arms has been on the leading edge of innovation in the realm of modular precision weapon systems. Recently however, he became aware of the solicitation by SOCOM for their desired Advanced Sniper Rifle (ASR). Having already been awarded the patent for the only ambidextrous rifle capable of left and right-hand bolt change in a single receiver, he decided to take his products further and labor towards meeting the requirements of the ASR solicitation. Thus resulting in the Advanced Nemesis Arms Sniper Rifle (ANSR). The ANSR is a truly ambidextrous, modular, multi-caliber, tool less take down weapon system that takes precision rifles to the next level by using interchangeable magazine wells to facilitate the changing of calibers from .308 WIN to .300 Norma to .338 Norma.

Changing from short action to long action calibers is just scratching the surface of the capabilities of this unique weapon system. Like all of the precision rifles Nemesis Arms produces, the ANSR is the most modular and completely tool less weapon system on the market that weighs in at just over 12 lbs with the 24″ .338 barrel equipped.

The most defining characteristic of the ANSR undoubtedly the interchangeable magazine well to facilitate the switch from .308/.300 Norma to .338 Norma. The simple push button design can easily be changed out in seconds, and supports all commercial off the shelf magazines commonly used in most precision rifles today.

While many at first glance see just another modernized bolt gun, the ANSR is designed with the warfighter and law enforcement professional in mind. The modular and mutli-caliber design allow for the weapon system to be adapted to any mission within any environment with the most discreet employment of a precision weapon system possible.

If you are interested in learning more about the ANSR or any other products that Nemesis Arms offers, feel free to check them out at the 2018 SHOT SHOW at booth # 20231 in the Venetian Ballroom. They will be more than willing to show you how innovative and unique their rifles are.

SHOT Show 18 – SOTech Affiliate’s Auto X Ops XOP Stock

Thursday, January 25th, 2018

SOTech is supporting Auto X Ops’ development of their patented XOP Stock (pronounced ZOP).

XOP Stock is the invention of Retired Police Officer Joede Vanek (LVMPD) and his close friend Bret Pitman. Together, they formed Auto X Ops.

Designed for use with AR-style weapons, it replaces the standard stock and pistol grip. This new stock system offers the shooter the ability to instantly change the length of pull with a single lever.

The silver lever is spring loaded and stays in the upright position just under the trigger guard. The shooter uses the middle finger to flip the lever down into position and then to the rear. The stock itself is spring loaded and extends to any one of the stock’s 11 positions selected by the shooter.

The XOP Stock allows immediate transition of length of pull to accommodate sight relief, terrain and TTPs. All of this without removing the weapon from the shoulder. At any point, the shooter can change the stock’s position by using the lever.

Imagine having the carbine change rather than contorting yourself to the weapon. That’s what Joede had in mind when came up with the idea.

If you’re concerned about the form factor, their next step is modularity, offering different stock and grip options.

Visit SOTech in booth #20113 to see the XOP Stock.
