Magpul Enters Shooting Brace Market – Announces Two Models

Thursday, January 16th, 2020

In a surprise move, Magpul announces two shooting braces, the BSL and BTR.

In the case of both models, they are compatible with Mil-Spec carbine receiver extension equipped AR Pistols. They are not compatible with proprietary, pistol, or commercial receiver extensions. 

Don’t forget, all ATF, NFA, state and local rules and laws apply, where applicable, which brings us to another point.

No, there isn’t an ATF letter and there won’t be one.

As with any firearm accessory, it’s up to the manufacturer and user to properly use the braces.

BSL

Badger Ordnance Announces New Products for Their C1 Line

Wednesday, January 15th, 2020

 

North Kansas City, Missouri – Badger Ordnance is proud to announce new additions to their line of Condition One Modular Mounts. For 2020 Badger Ordnance has introduced to their C1 line, products that cater more to the long-range precision shooter. The C1 ARC (Accessory Ring Cap) is a modular replacement ring cap for any Condition One Modular Mount. It allows the user to mount a myriad of accessories fore or aft on their C1 Mounts, to include different variants of Laser Range Finder rails (12 slot tall or 8 slot short) or 12 o’clock mounted red dots. The C1 ARC allows the accessories to be connected or disconnected without removal of the ARC itself thus maintaining zero of your primary optic.

 

Also new from Badger Ordnance for their 2020 C1 lineup is the C1 ACI (Angle Cosine Indicator) and C1 ACD (Anti Cant Device). The C1 ACI allows for the attachment of the Sniper Tools Design ACI directly to the C1 line of mounts. The C1 ACI can be configured in 2 different ride heights on the mount, high or low. The C1 ACD is a leveling instrument designed for the C1 line of mounts to ensure that a weapon system is level before a shot is taken. The level itself can be user calibrated to ensure that it is properly aligned to the user’s scope/weapon system. The C1 ACD housing also allows the end user to attach a commonly procured tritium vial to the level for use during low/no light operation.

Both the C1 ACI and ACD can be mounted left/right, fore/aft on any C1 Modular Mount port in a standalone fashion via the provided standalone puck or in conjuction with and opposing the C1 Offset Micro Sight J-Arms.

All products of the C1 line and others will be on display next week at SHOT Show 2020 in the Badger Ordnance booth #20005
