Faxon Firearms Launches EXOS Pistol Compensator

Sunday, June 23rd, 2024

Faxon Firearms, a leader in the firearms industry, is proud to announce the release of its new EXOS Pistol Compensator, designed to significantly enhance the performance of the SIG P365 series, including the P365XL and P365 XMacro. This innovative compensator promises to reduce muzzle rise and felt recoil, allowing for faster follow-up shots and improved accuracy.

Why Choose a Compensator for Your SIG P365?

The SIG P365 series is renowned for its compact size, reliability, and accuracy, making it a popular choice for concealed carry and personal defense. However, its small size can result in noticeable muzzle rise and recoil, affecting shooting speed and precision. A compensator, such as the Faxon EXOS, attaches to the firearm’s threaded barrel, redirecting gases to counteract barrel movement during firing. This enhances shooting accuracy, control, and comfort, making it an essential upgrade for SIG P365 users.

Key Benefits of the Faxon EXOS Pistol Compensator:

Reduced Muzzle Rise: Maintains sight picture for faster follow-up shots.

Decreased Recoil: Improves shooting comfort and control.

Improved Accuracy: Minimizes muzzle movement for precise shots.

Faster Shooting: Enables quicker target reacquisition and shot placement.

Features of the Faxon EXOS Pistol Compensator:

Superior Design and Construction: Crafted from high-quality materials for durability and longevity, ensuring consistent performance.

Threaded Barrel Compatibility: Seamlessly fits onto the SIG P365’s threaded barrel, offering easy and secure installation.

Effective Gas Redirection: Innovative port configuration effectively reduces muzzle rise and felt recoil.

Lightweight and Compact: Adds minimal weight, preserving the firearm’s balance and handling.

Aesthetic Appeal: Sleek, modern design complements the SIG P365 series, adding a professional and tactical look.

Performance Benefits:

The Faxon EXOS Pistol Compensator enhances shooting accuracy by reducing muzzle rise and recoil. It allows shooters to maintain a steady sight picture and deliver more precise shots, even during rapid fire. Its lightweight design ensures it doesn’t compromise the firearm’s maneuverability, making it an ideal choice for competitive and personal defense scenarios.

Comparing the Faxon EXOS Pistol Compensator to Competing Models:

The Faxon EXOS outperforms popular models such as the Herrington Arms HC365, Parker Mountain Machine PMM JTTc, and the MCARBO compensators. It offers superior gas redirection, easier installation, and a more aesthetically pleasing design.

Upgrade Your SIG P365 with the Faxon EXOS Pistol Compensator

The Faxon EXOS Pistol Compensator is a top-tier option for those looking to enhance their SIG P365, P365XL, or P365 XMacro. Its superior design, high-quality materials, and performance benefits make it a standout choice.

Laser Light Module: Rheinmetall’s New Pistol Tactical Aiming Laser at Eurosatory 2024

Monday, June 17th, 2024

Rheinmetall is showcasing its new “Pistol Tactical Aiming Laser” laser light module at Eurosatory 2024. Made by Rheinmetall Soldier Electronics in Stockach on Lake Constance, the Pistol Tactical Aiming Laser (LLM-PTAL) is a compact lightweight build-on module specially designed for handguns.

For target illumination, an infrared close-range illuminator and white light are available to the operator for use in all operational situations.

In addition, the LLM-PTAL is equipped with an IR aiming laser and a visible (selectable red or green) aiming laser, integrated next to each other in a laser block.

Despite its compact dimensions (L/W/H 76 x 45 x 30 mm) and low weight of just 115 g, the newly developed module produces a powerful laser output of up to laser class 3B, permanently controlled via a monitor diode and electronically regulated. The build-on module features a dongle interface for an eye-safe training mode and effective force-on-force training.

Besides ergonomic, two-handed fingertip operability, the module can be attached to the weapon in various ways and can be adapted to different holster types. The single CR123 battery can be exchanged via the lamp head when the module is mounted.

Furthermore, the device offers the great advantage of not being subject to America’s strict ITAR export regulations.

Along with other Rheinmetall products, the LLM-PTAL is on view at Stand E115/F115 at Eurosatory 2024.

Forward Controls Designs Launches Line of Handstops and Foregrips

Monday, June 17th, 2024

Forward Controls is excited to introduce our latest product line for recoil mitigation on the carbine platform: FGM (Fore Grip MLOK) and HSM (Hand Stop, MLOK). Originally, both products began as a single modular unit that could be converted into a short and mid-length foregrip. Although the design was finalized in 2019, Covid-19 related shortages and the complexity of the design delayed its launch. By 2023, due to its high cost and complexity, the modular concept was replaced with separate, standalone versions: a hand stop and a short foregrip. While the design is no longer modular, this change also eliminated the high manufacturing costs.

For simplicity, consider the FGM as an extended version of the HSM. Both are designed to be wider than the MLOK handguard’s mounting base width of 0.75″. Notably, they both overhang on both sides, which is intentional. This wider design, measuring 1.25″, offers more surface area and contact, improving traction with the user’s hand. Both are angled at 10 degrees with a flare at the bottom. They have flutes on the sides, designed as resting places for the user’s fingertips. This feature is less effective on the HSM due to its shortness, but it is much more useful on the FGM. The six-sided serrations effectively provide traction, adding friction and allowing ther shooter to more effectively apply reward pressure when controlling recoil.

The design discourages the user from holding it like a broomstick. Instead, it promotes cradling the handguard with the web between the thumb and index finger on the handguard, with the rest of the hand naturally extending at an angle. Both FGM and HSM are reversible, suiting the user’s preference, and function equally well in either direction.

FGM & HSM are both made from a solid block of 6061, hard coat anodized in black, FDE, or ODG

A 1/8 Allen key is required for MLOK hardware installation (not included)

Torque value: 35 in lb (max) for aluminum handguards, 15 in lb (max) for polymer handguards

FGM & HSM are both proudly designed and made in the USA

UNITY Tactical Expands FAST Modular Accessory Suite With FAST PRO Clamp

Friday, June 14th, 2024

FAST™ FTC OMNI Updated for Additional Compatibility with Holosun™ Magnifiers
BROUSSARD, LA. (June 14, 2024) – UNITY™ Tactical, a designer of components that integrate tactical systems and optimize the human factor, announced an existing product update to the FAST™ FTC OMNI and a new accessory addition to its FAST Modular Accessory Suite.

The FAST FTC OMNI, which flips the magnifier to center for stowage, has been updated to now also accommodate Holosun™ HM3X and HM3XT magnifiers. Originally launched in 2022, the FTC OMNI was previously compatible with various magnifiers from EOTECH®, Sig Sauer®, Trijicon® and Vortex®.

The FAST Modular Accessory Suite now also includes the FAST Pro Clamp, which replaces the two-bolt rail clampallowing a SureFire® Pro light body to attach directly to the side of the mount. The light body can rotate up or down on the clamp for preferred placement.

The Pro Clamp is primarily designed to replace the two-bolt rail clamp on RAXIS™, allowing the end user to mount their light up front next to the laser, which is positioned on top of the rifle. In this use case, the light can fold up into the open pocket directly between the B.E. Meyers® MAWL® and the handguard.

“We focus on even the smallest details so that UNITY products give you an edge,” said Mike Roth, VP of business development for UNITY Tactical. “The FAST Pro Clamp is a small piece that fills a need for a specific use, but as part of the larger FAST ecosystem it broadens the capability and versatility of our mounting solutions. Expanding the FTC OMNI to also include compatibility with Holosun magnifiers does the same.”

The Pro Clamp will also attach to any FAST mount using a two-hole clamp. It must replace the FAST QD Lever, making it incompatible. This is primarily helpful on shorter handguards, such as a PDW where rail space is at a premium. In such cases, users can also utilize the Pro Clamp to mount a KIJI™illuminator using a SureFire Pro body.

The FAST Pro Clamp is made of 7075-T6 aluminum that is type III hardcoat anodized. It is available only in black and includes a lifetime warranty. It retails for $59 and is available for purchase now through authorized UNITY dealers and on UNITYtactical.com.
