The Magpul Bipod – Sling Stud QD is the next offering in the Magpul bipod line. Designed to mount to the ubiquitous Uncle Mike’s Sling Swivel Stud that is common to nearly every sporting rifle made, the Magpul Bipod – Sling Stud QD is the strongest, most fully featured bipod available with direct sling stud mounting. Offered with a new rapid-attach sling stud mounting system, the Sling Stud QD bipod takes the fuss of aligning and tightening that comes with traditional sling stud-mount bipods out of the equation. The stainless-steel mounting system self-locates and aligns perfectly every time, and an ergonomic thumb wheel allows for excellent grip to ensure easy tightening. Additionally, two sizes of high-durometer rubber mounting gaskets are provided to ensure optimized fit and load distribution on narrow sporter-contour or wider target-style forends. The ability to mount a sling on the forend is maintained with a low-profile sling stud on the rear of the Sling Stud QD mount, which also provides for a quick detachment when it’s needed.
Providing the same premium features available in the existing line of Magpul bipods, the Sling Stud QD bipod provides the high performance associated with higher-priced bipods at a significantly more affordable price for all shooters. Spring-tensioned, Mil-Spec hard anodized 6061-T6 and injection-molded reinforced polymer legs stow neatly forward and snap down and lock into place with one hand. Leg extensions slide and lock securely with the push of a button on any of the seven locking detents, extending from 6.7” to 10.0”. An industry-exclusive 50° of total tilt are controlled by a glove-friendly, knurled, tool-less, bipod locking knob located between the extended legs, allowing easy adjustment between shots. A soft rubber bipod locking knob cap is attached to the locking knob, giving users a steady, non-marring forward rest while the bipod is folded. Additionally, its staggered soft rubber feet hold fast on a variety of shooting surfaces and are easily removed with a roll pin punch. Should users choose to change feet, the Sling Stud QD’s legs accept most Atlas-pattern bipod replaceable feet. The streamlined housing and legs fit neatly under the barrel and are just under 2.3” deep and 3.3” wide when folded.
• Rapid leg deployment with efficient single-handed adjustability
• Rapid-attach, self-locating stainless-steel mounting system mounts to Uncle Mike’s Sling Studs on narrow or wide fore ends, while also providing a quick detachment capability
• High strength reinforced injected molded polymer, Steel and Mil-Spec hard anodized 6061 T-6 aluminum construction
• +/- 25 degrees of tilt (about the longitudinal axis of weapon) for a total of 50 degrees
• Uncle Mike’s-style sling stud on rear of mounting body
• Adjustable friction knob for setting tilt and ease of movement
• Individually adjustable leg lengths in 0.5” increments for a total of 7 positions
• Removable rubberized feet are compatible with B&T Industries Atlas pattern replaceable feet
• Quiet and positive leg deployment, adjustment and stowage

Enhanced Tactical Arms is proud to unveil the SMRT Sniper Grip at the 2019 NRA Annual Meeting at the Pride Fowler Industries display (Booth 116). The SMRT Sniper Grip is designed specifically for long range shooters and fits any weapon equipped with an AR15 style grip. The patented grip includes a groove to improve fingertip indexing when using the Sympathetic Movement Reduction Technique employed by United States Marine Corps Scout Snipers. Testing by a retired Marine Corps Scout Sniper Instructor showed a 20% increase in hit probabilities at 900 yards when using the SMRT Sniper Grip in conjunction with the SMRT Technique.
The grip is constructed from highly durable material similar to that used in the construction of modern polymer framed pistols and coated with KG Kote for improved durability. Travis Pierce, Enhanced Tactical Arms Military & Law Enforcement Testing, will have a limited number of SMRT Sniper Grips available for purchase on the show floor and will also be taking drop ship orders (shipped in a flat envelope) for customers within the Continental United States who want to avoid transporting products home after the show for no additional cost.
Free shipping will only be available for orders placed at NRAAM! The SMRT Sniper Grip is available with a molded Macro-Tread and finished in black or FDE KG Kote for $69.99 plus tax and sales fees. The SMRT Sniper Grip is also available with a composite High Traction Maritime Finish for $99.99 plus tax and sales fees.
Travis will be available at the Pride Fowler Industries booth (Booth 116) to explain the Sympathetic Movement Reduction Technique and give NRAAM participants a chance to see the SMRT Sniper Grip first hand. Please send any media, sales, or demonstration/sample requests via e-mail to SALES@ETAC-ARMS.COM
THE SYMPATHETIC MOVEMENT REDUCTION TECHNIQUE
The Sympathetic Movement Reduction Technique (SMRT) is used to isolate a shooter’s trigger finger, minimizing unwanted movement (induced by breathing, an inconsistent grip, and/or involuntary muscle movements). United States Marine Corps Scout Snipers typically transition to this technique when engaging targets over 700 yards using a bipod-equipped weapon.
The shooter will begin by moving the bottom three fingers of their firing hand to the front of the grip within the slotted area and will apply a very light rearward pressure. This provides an index to improve consistency both with and without gloves. The shooter then moves their thumb over the trigger finger side of the hand, to minimize thumb contact on the weapon. The shooter will then lean into the weapon to load the bipod prior to engaging the trigger.
Field test results indicate that the SMRT Sniper Grip (when used in conjunction with the technique previously described) can increase the number of hits on an IPSC target by approximately 20% at 900 yards.
SMRT SNIPER GRIP FEATURES
The SMRT Sniper Grips are manufactured using a chemically stable and heat resistant advanced polymer (similar to the compounds used in modern polymer framed pistols) and finished with KG Gun Kote for increased thermal properties and durability. Infrared reflective backstrap panels are available for military and law enforcement customers.
The SMRT Sniper Grip is also available with a high traction composite finish designed for maritime operations and gloved use. The shooter can reduce the degree of traction provided by the composite finish by adding several layers of spray paint over the KG Kote. Custom colors, finishes, and body designs are available subject to minimum order quantities. Each grip is hand-finished; therefore, shooters may find slight variations depending on the specific production batch. Minor wear in the KG Kote coating may be eligible for factory touch-up (for a fee) through Enhanced Tactical Arms, LLC.
SMRT Sniper Grips have been used by United States Conventional and Special Operations Forces in combat and during real-world Law Enforcement operations. Enhanced Tactical Arms, LLC offers training for armorers and shooters for shooters upon request. Please feel free to contact Enhanced Tactical Arms, LLC with questions or orders.
New for 2019: Attach or remove your GoPro camera to any Magpul M-LOK mount in half a second with the KDG purpose built Kinect M-LOK GoPro mount. The mount is perfect for the three-gun shooter that wants to film a run from the perspective of the rifle or shotgun. It is also ideal for a Law Enforcement Officer that wants to document use of force when a rifle or shotgun is deployed. The GoPro is one of the smallest HD cameras that offers a wide field of view, making it ideal for use with rifles, shotgun, or helmet using KDG’s patented Kinect technology and MLOK attachment points. The mount also works on the KDG M-LOK Optics Hub alongside your spotting scope.
In conjunction with the release of the Kinect GoPro mount, KDG will also be releasing in limited quantities, a MOLLE/strap M-LOK plate (Pictured on the pack below). This plate will allow mounting of the Kinect Go Pro to your MOLLE gear (ie: plate carrier, chest rig) or backpack straps. It will also work with any M-LOK compatible accessory.
If you are attending the NRA show this week in Indianapolis, stop by KDG’s booth #7057, to check out the new Kinect GoPro Mount.
Bald Knob, AR – Choate Machine and Tool, a market leading designer, manufacturer and OEM supplier of rifle stocks, shotgun magazine extensions and firearms accessories, has introduced The Choate Modular Stock (C. Mod) chassis system. This is a true modular rifle stock, allowing the user to change the forend or butt stock without removing the rifle action from the main chassis section. This modularity provides the ultimate in adaptability and versatility while not disturbing the critical action-to-stock fit so reconfirming zero is unnecessary after configuring the system as needed.
The heart of the C. Mod rifle stock system is the precision CNC machined chassis. Made from a solid block of aluminum, the chassis rigidly holds the action while the desired butt stock and forend can be changed as needed. The chassis uses the time-tested AR style magazine release. This eliminates accidentally dropping the magazine by hitting a release lever located in front of the trigger guard. The C Mod. magazine will accept cartridges up to 2.860 inches in length such as the 308 Winchester, 6.5 Creedmoor and 260 Remington, as well as other popular cartridges like 6mm Remington, 257 Roberts and 7X57 Mauser. Each C. Mod chassis comes with two magazines and the required action screws.
The ultimate in versatility is provided by the C. Mod Stock system of optional forends and butt stocks. Forends include a target/varmint style forend with a wide, flat bottom and a sniper/tactical style forend that is shorter and slightly tapered toward the muzzle end. Both come with a T-rail and bipod adapter. Butt stocks included two conventional types including a basic tactical style, a fully customizable target/tactical style with adjustable check piece and length-of-pull. Choate also offers two very specialized butt stocks for the C. Mod Rifle Stock including a telescoping AR style butt stock (compatible with any AR butt stock) and a pistol grip folding stock for the ultimate in portability. All butt stocks and forends come with the required hardware for rock solid installation.
The new Choate Modular stock is available for the Remington 700 short action and Remington Model 7. MSRP is $710 and includes the CNC machined chassis anodized matted black, the tactical forend and the tactical butt stock both also in matte black and two magazines.
