Ergonomic Performance Upgrades for AICS Rifle Systems By Anarchy Outdoors

Monday, March 16th, 2020

North Logan, UT- Anarchy Outdoors, a leading industry innovator and supplier of precision rifle components and other high-performance firearms accessories, has introduced significant ergonomic upgrades for select Accuracy International rifle systems.  Designed in partnership with Accuracy Obsession, these precision-oriented upgrades include a Thumb Rest for a proper precision rifle grip, an improved Adjustable Cheek Piece for better eye-to-scope alignment and a Spigot Mount for superior bipod attachment.

A thumb rest is critical for a proper grip when shooting a precision rifle.  Most shooters in the precision rifle discipline do not curl their thumb around the grip in the traditional manner but position it on the trigger finger side of the grip.  This helps eliminate torque while squeezing the trigger and keeps the rifle on target.  The Anarchy Outdoors Thumb Rest provides an ergonomic and repeatable-position support on the strong side of the grip for the thumb to rest on, providing much better hand alignment and consistent trigger pull.  The Thumb Rests are manufactured from composite Nylon 12 material, resulting in a strong, thin, and perfectly textured interface.  Available in black with an MSRP of $39.99 Thumb Rests are compatible with select versions of the “AT” and “AX” rifle systems.  Please visit www.anarchyoutdoors.com/accuracy-international-thumb-rest for complete model compatibility.

The Anarchy Outdoors Adjustable Cheek Piece is thinner and can be set lower than the factory version to allow mounting the rifle’s scope lower to the bore axis and still provide better and more comfortable eye alignment.  This minimizes the effect of parallax and the greater range of adjustment allows setting the comb height for maximum comfort while in the shooting position.  Made from composite Nylon 11, the installation only takes minutes using a basic Allen wrench.  The Adjustable Cheek Piece fits the factory AX buttstock and the AX-AICS R700 Chassis and is now available with an MSRP of $59.99.  Please visit www.anarchyoutdoors.com/accuracy-international-ax-aics-cheek-piece-low

 

The new Spigot Mount from Anarchy Outdoors provides an upgraded bipod attachment point for select Accuracy International AE, AT and AW rifle systems including the AWM and AW50.  Models are available for bipods that attach to either Picatinny or Arca Swiss type rails.  Rather than mount the bipod to the bottom of the stock, the Spigot Mount positions the bipod closer to the bore axis and further toward the muzzle by extending out from the front of the stock rather than the bottom.  This results in greater stability and accuracy.  All versions of the Spigot Mount are machined from a single piece of 6061-T6 Aluminum and are Type-III hard coat anodized black.  This one-piece bipod mount replaces the Accuracy International factory bipod “block” held within the square tube forend to provide the user a rigid bipod attachment point.
User installation is easy. It requires a 5/16” roll pin punch, 2.5mm Allen Key, 3mm Allen Key, and blue Loctite.  The Anarchy Outdoors Spigot Mounts have an MSRP of $119.99.  For more information please visit www.anarchyoutdoors.com/accuracy-international-spigot-mount

Pros:

CMC Barrels Announces the Release of its New AR Barrel Line

Thursday, March 12th, 2020

Fort Worth, Texas: CMC Barrels™ is proud to announce its highly anticipated line of CMC AR Barrels. Since the 2018 inaugural launch of the CMC Glock® Match Precision Barrel, CMC has had the objective of developing a series of high-quality AR Barrels that complement their exceptional line of AR aftermarket products. The CMC Barrels™ AR Barrel line does just that.

With input received from military, law enforcement, and civilian shooters incorporated into the core engineering of their AR barrels, CMC has been able to accommodate the modern-day shooting requirements requested. Every barrel is precision, instrument-inspected for absolute straightness and air gauged for maximum uniformity, yielding the highest accuracy possible. Land and groove tolerance from breech to muzzle can vary only .0001″ for the best concentricity.

The first profiles availed will be based on the SOCOM variant. The CMC’s AR15 barrels are made from 4150 Chrome Moly Vanadium, coated in H&M Blacknitride+™ for increased wear resistance, chambered in .223 Wylde so that you can feed it both .223 and 5.56 NATO ammo.

CMC AR15 barrels are coated in H&M Blacknitride+™ or Ferritic Nitrocarburizing, resulting in significantly improved surface properties on ferrous metal parts while maintaining dimensional and shape stability. H&M Blacknitride+™ yields increased wear resistance, improved fatigue strength, better corrosion resistance, improved lubricity, and enhanced cosmetic appeal. 

CMC Barrels™ AR15 Barrel Features:
• Optimal length gas systems for barrel lengths

• M4 feed ramps for reliability

Kit Badger Discusses Q-Sert from Q

Thursday, March 12th, 2020

Our friend Ivan shared this article with us on the Q-Sert weapon accessory attachment system from Q, LLC.

Q-Sert : The Attachment Method

When it comes to methods of attaching equipment to hand guards, there is generally two different methods. You have KeyMod, which is great for shelving units, and there is M-LOK. Past that there is legacy Picatinny Rail. Q LLC has brought something new to the table though, largely under the radar, which is their Q-Sert.

Q-Sert is a method of attaching accessories to the handguard that offers a stronger mount up than M-Lok, a more repeatable zero and provides a lighter handguard at the same time. Magic right? It took a number of engineers to make it happen…

Right now Q-Sert hand guards are available on the Fix Rifle, MiniFix and Side Chick Chassis. They are currently working on AR-15 hand guards as well as more Q-Sert direct mount options.

JP Enterprises Introduces Law Tactical Series of Silent Captured Springs

Thursday, March 5th, 2020

Hugo, MN – JP Enterprises is pleased to introduce the Law Tactical series of Silent Captured Springs. This marks the first buffer spring substitution component to be named compatible by Law Tactical for use with their folding adapter.

Through a collaboration with Law Tactical, JP has developed an alternative design for their extremely popular Silent Captured Spring system that is fully compatible with Law’s Gen 3 folding stock adapter. Beyond simple function, the Law Tactical series of buffer springs reaches a previously unmet threshold for durability and safety.

“Law Tactical takes the real-world use of their stock adapter very seriously,” says JP founder and head of product development, John Paul. “While some third-parties have sold adapters to use SCS with the Law adapter, nothing met their demanding function testing regimen until now.”

Both the Silent Captured Spring and original Law Tactical folding adapter debuted in 2012 but previously lacked any true compatibility due to differing designs. Since that time, the Law Tactical folder has risen to become the premier device of its type for ultra-compact storage and transportation for rifles and AR-type pistols. JP Enterprises is pleased to have had the chance to work with an industry innovator and to provide the superior buffering function of the Silent Captured Spring for Law’s signature product.

The Law Tactical series Silent Captured Springs are available for both small-frame (AR-15) and large-frame (AR-10 platforms). Standard configurations will function in most rifles with alternate heavy buffer models optimized for specialty use such as suppressed or short-barreled rifles also available. A conversion kit to reconfigure existing Silent Captured Springs for use with the Law Tactical folder will be available soon.

As with the Law Tactical folding adapter, Brownells has signed on to serve as the premier distributor for Law Tactical series Silent Captured Springs with models available now at www.brownells.com
