Victory First Launches Featureless GLOCK Slides

Thursday, June 14th, 2018

Victory First has opened up pre-orders for their Featureless GLOCK slides. Wait, what? Featureless GLOCK slides? It seems like everyone offers a proprietary cut for their GLOCK compatible slides. Instead, Victory First decided to introduce a slide which could serve as a blank canvas, allowing the user to either customize the slide on their own or have a machine shop do it for them.


Made from 17-4PH Stainless Steel, they are cut to the exact specifications of a factory GLOCK slide, minus the serrations. These fit GEN 1-3 components. They’ll also fit common holsters, as-is.

You will not be charged until the item ships, but they expect to ship individual orders in 6 weeks.

Samson Manufacturing Adds a New Finish for Its’ Most Popular Handguard

Wednesday, June 13th, 2018

Samson Manufacturing, a leader in firearm accessories, introduces a new finish for their M-LOK SXS Series 15″ and 12″ handguards.

Responding to public demand, Samson will now be producing versions of their handguards in Type III Class 1 Anodized Pre-Ban Gray.

“The difference between Class 1 and Class 2 hardcoat anodizing is the removal of the black dye.

Our Type III Class 1 finish results in a light gray color that is both distinctive and visually pleasing” said Samson spokesperson Dave Biggers.

Proof Mark – Muzzle Stand-off Device for the Glock 19 & 23

Tuesday, June 12th, 2018

Proof Mark LLC is a veteran owned firearm accessories design and manufacturing company located in the Pacific Northwest. They recently released their Muzzle Stand-off Device (MSD) for the G19/23. Project development began in October of 2015 and concluded in Spring of 2018.

img_1286.jpg

The design intent originates in part with the Battle of Qala-i-Jangi where an SFOD-A, after expending their ammunition, had to defend their position using their empty weapons in hand-to-hand combat.  Another source of inspiration was a special mission group in Slovakia, where there were several reports of Glock slides coming out of battery due to muzzle contact.  The MSD has utility in kinetic operations and as well as CCW. FBI statistics show more than half of law enforcement firefights take place at distances of 0 to 5 feet.  When in close contact with an assailant the MSD prevents the slide from being pushing out of battery.

The MSD body is machined from billet 7075 aluminum and the glass break is 17-4 stainless.

4A90DE6E-F558-4894-AF73-EEF36346E007

The locking mechanism consists of a Patent Pending 303 stainless locking block which fits within the profile of the STANAG 4694 rail and allows for tool-less removal.

The MSD went through extensive testing which revealed two primary design obstacles; gas management at the muzzle and frame fitment.  First, capturing excess gas behind the stand-off device generates a tremendous amount of force on the pistol dust cover and this can lead to material fatigue.  This challenge was overcome with the use of proper venting.  Second, inconsistencies of Glock dust covers between generations and even within a single generation made universal fitment difficult.  To overcome this obstacle, balance was struck between critical dimensions to achieve a good fit on Gen3/4/5.

With solutions engineered and production eminent, Glock released their new Gen5.  This extended the development cycle as the slides of the Gen5/19X are longer than prior generations which caused interference with the back of the MSD.  This was overcome by recontouring the back of the MSD.

Prior to public release, the MSD went through a year of testing within one of the military’s special mission groups with positive feedback.

The MSD G19/23 fits the Safariland 7TS G17/22 XC1 holster.  Look for the following first eight digits: 7378-8322-XXX.  The last three digits indicate right/left hand configuration.

Variants of the MSD for the G17/22 and G34/35 are forthcoming.

Pimp Your 416 with Maxim Defense

Monday, June 11th, 2018

I have been remiss in writing about the accessories Maxim Defense has created for the HK416. I first ran across this company at AUSA in 2017. Since their initial products were going straight to the civilian AR market I pay as much attention to them as I should have. Maxim Defense is working very hard to become a serious player in the small arms market. One area they’ve placed emphasis on is the HK416.

A8CFB053-87AB-438A-89FF-B8DF7D036F48

You could already mount their collapsible PDW stock to the rifle, but they designed a new rail for the platform called the mDX. Available in 7.25″, 9.25″, and 12.65″ lengths, it incorporates M-LOK slots. The QD slots are on 45 Deg.

Additionally, you’ll note the scoop at the business end. There are short and long scooped models with the longer scoop intended to keep the thumb back away from the really hot bits for those who shoot with the thumb over rail technique.

Finally, Maxim Defense is supposed to be introducing 416 lowers.
