US Army Selects Strike Industries Cable Management System for Next Generation Squad Weapon (NGSW) Program

Wednesday, January 10th, 2024

Las Vegas, Nevada — Strike Industries is proud to announce that its Cable Management System® (CMS) has been selected by the United States Army for use in the Next Generation Squad Weapon (NGSW) Program (in use beginning 2024). We are very excited and honored for the opportunity to contribute to the US Military. This significant achievement represents a milestone for our company and a testament to the quality and innovation of our products.

Our CMS is a meticulously crafted ecosystem in development since 2018. Engineered to solve the cable conundrum stemming from flashlights, lasers, and other weapon electronics, our CMS does more than just hold cables. It ingeniously stores excess cable within the weapon accessories and guides the cable’s direction seamlessly.

We have developed over 20 CMS products which include handguards, rail covers, vertical grips, angled grips, picatinny mounted, M-LOK mounted accessories, and several more parts. To date, Strike Industries has received multiple issued patents for these products with more patents pending.

Within our CMS product line, three products were chosen after a rigorous evaluation and selection process that included extensive testing which included other companies’ products as well — to ensure who would meet the highest standards of performance, reliability, and security required by the US military:

Strike Multidirectional Picatinny Rail Cover w/ Cable Management

M-LOK Cable Management Covers (Long)

M-LOK Cable Management Covers (Short)

Key benefits and features of these Cable Management System® products:

-Enables users to organize and store excess wire from weapon lights or any other cabled accessories.

-Aesthetic top rail cover protects hand or thumb from picatinny rail’s sharp edges while providing more control and comfort over the front end of the weapon platform.

-M-LOK covers serve in organizing wires and mitigating heat from the barrel.

-Come in a short version which is about the length of one M-LOK slot (1.57”).

-Come in a long version which is about the length of two M-LOK slots (3.14”).

XTech Tactical Expands Magazine Extension Line for Sig Sauer Standard Frame P365 with 12rd to 15rd Kit

Sunday, January 7th, 2024

XTech Tactical announces the release of their newest offering for the Sig Sauer P365 standard grip module which converts the factory 12rd P365 9mm magazines to 15rds. The kit replaces all components of the factory magazine other than the steel magazine body.

The company is offering the kits as a single conversion kit or a three pack in honor of the Sig Sauer P365 Tac Pac which includes 3 12rd magazines.

“Due to the dramatically improved ergonomics and feel, the only complaint we have received from our MTX 365 customers is that our 10rd to 13rd magazine extensions have rendered their 12rd Sig Sauer magazines without a home.

We came up with the 12rd to 15rd kits of our MTX 365 to give good use for our customers who already owned 12rd factory magazines as extended back up magazines. Our way of giving thanks for all the support is by offering the 3-pack for the price of one OEM magazine”, stated Jeremy Deadman, Director of Sales and Marketing.

The MTX 365 12-15 shares the same external housing with the other XTech Tactical MTX 365 offerings, but has a specific custom engineered 17-7 extended spring, easy loading follower, magazine body spacer specific to the MTX 365 12-15.

The kits are now shipping and available at the below link as a single and 3 pack:

www.xtechtactical.com/product/mtx-365-123-round-magazine-extender-with-spring-for-p365

All components are 100% Manufactured and Designed in the US.

About the MTX 365:

With the MTX 365 installed, the user can easily maintain a complete grip on firearm, a full purchase of the palm area and a proper high grip on the pistol frame. The aesthetics of the extender match the P365 frame with a functional texture on the side panels for rapid extraction if needed.

The product uses both of the company’s now issued US utility patents for magazine extensions, US11408697B2 and US11168954B1.

The MTX© line up now includes options for:

Sig Sauer P365 9mm 10rd Magazines +3 & +0 for restricted states

Sig Sauer P365 9mm 12rd Magazines +3 12rd to 15rd kits

Sig Sauer P365 380 10rd Magazines +3

Forward Controls Design Expands Pistol Optic Plate Lineup for Glock Slimline Pistols

Thursday, December 28th, 2023

Forward Controls Design is excited to introduce the OPF-G43x/48, RMR, a new addition to our OPF family of optics plates. This plate allows Glock 43X MOS or Glock 48 owners to mount a full-sized RMR, SRO, or RCR on their factory-milled slide. The reason we wanted to offer this is that despite the RMRcc being almost identical in width the RMR, some have expressed the sacrifice in window size between the two makes the RMR the preferable choice, even on smaller pistols.

The OPF-G43x/48 RMR mount not only raises the mounting surface but also includes lugs and a front recoil fence to securely hold the sight in place. The package includes 2 plate-to-slide screws, 4 sight-to-plate screws, and a packet of VC-3 Vibratite. The OPF-G43x/48 RMR is lightweight and features a large lightning cut that is hidden once installed, helping to reduce unnecessary weight.

All our RMR OPF plates have recoil lugs that meet specifications and are never undersized. These recoil lugs are essential to prevent mounting failures, as using screws alone as recoil lugs with the RMR footprint is insufficient. We are proud to say that this design has had no failures throughout the lifespan of the product family, knowing that users can trust it.

FCD’s plates focus on three criteria: a design that holds optics securely, tight tolerances, and strong material selection. These criteria are essential for LE and MIL applications. FCD supports factory-milled slides, providing a standardized mounting solution for a wide range of optics. FCD uses US-sourced 4140 steel and machine shops with tight tolerances. OPF optics plates ensure secure mounting that maintains zero during drops, one-hand manipulations, and battery changes (RMR).

FCD primarily develops plates for LE and MIL pistols and supports optics made in the USA and allied countries. The OPF-G, RMR plates have gained a reputation as the best plates for Glock MOS and RMR. FCD has been supplying these products to LE, MIL, and civilian customers since March 2020. We continue to aggressively expand our OPF line, recently adding plates for the PDP, VP9, Staccato, and the FN 509T. All our products are proudly designed and manufactured in the USA.

The Zero-8 Vertical Foregrip from True North

Tuesday, December 26th, 2023

Introducing the newest multi-angle vertical foregrip, The Zero-8 from True North.

The Zero-8 was designed to give the end user the ability to set the angle from 0 to 8 degree of cant, allowing you to figure out what works best for you or adjust for more barrier-stop or hand-stop use. Made of billet 6061-T6 aluminum and Type III Hardcoat anodized, the Zero-8 is built for hard use. The zero-8 features a 2-tier groove system on the front and back spine. This allows for comfortable gloveless use while retaining our history for superior barrier grabbing. The bottom perimeter is notched for added grip when resting the Zero-8 on most any surface.

Scalarworks – LEAP/12

Monday, December 18th, 2023

Another great item I missed earlier this year is the LEAP/12 from Scalarworks.

Weighing just 68 grams, this 2.26″ mount not only accepts the EOTech HWS but also integrates space for a 3X magnifier, replacing two commonly used mounts.
