Tuesday, January 14th, 2025

OWENS CROSS ROADS, Ala. (Jan. 13, 2025) — AG Composites, the renowned leader in custom rifle stock design and production, is thrilled to announce the debut of its latest composite and fiberglass stocks for the iconic M1A rifle. The highly anticipated unveiling will occur at the prestigious 2025 SHOT Show, scheduled from January 21-25 at the Venetian Expo and Ceasar’s Forum in Las Vegas, NV. Attendees can visit AG Composites at booth #42126.

Originally introduced by Springfield Armory in 1971, the M1A rifle is the civilian version of the legendary M14. Starting in 1957, the M14 was the standard issue battle rifle for the U.S. military. Over the years, the M1A has gained immense popularity among competition, recreational shooters, and sportsmen.

“Stocks for the M1A rifle were the very first our company ever produced,” stated Matt Tandy, owner of AG Composites. “As we celebrate our 10th anniversary, we are delighted to reintroduce these stocks in both composite and fiberglass variations. Being a veteran-owned business with numerous veteran employees, this rifle holds a special place in our hearts. We are committed to providing M1A shooters with stocks that offer exceptional accuracy at affordable prices.”

The composite and fiberglass M1A stocks from AG Composites are meticulously crafted using a cutting-edge 71-step process and state-of-the-art technology. The company employs modern design software such as Solidworks and AutoDesk to create Computer Aided Design (CAD) models, ensuring the production of premium rifle stock lines. AG Composites exclusively utilizes top-quality carbon fiber, fiberglass, epoxy, and paint products in the manufacturing of all their rifle stocks. Their proprietary production process, which remains a closely guarded secret, enables them to deliver best-in-class stocks with significantly shorter lead times compared to competitors. Every step of the manufacturing process is driven by consistency, efficiency, cost control, and rigorous quality control checks. Furthermore, all AG Composites stocks are proudly 100 percent made in America.

The new M1A composite stock will have a manufacturer’s suggested retail price of $769, while the fiberglass version will be priced at $499. Both models will come with standard swivel studs in the front and rear, and customers can add all the typical custom options, such as texture, finish, etc. For more information about AG Composites’ extensive range of custom stocks and accessories, please visit their website at www.agcomposites.com or contact them at 1-833-AGSTOCK or 256-723-8381.

Coming Soon from Magpul – TMAG 20 AR/M4 GEN M3

Tuesday, January 14th, 2025

As part of their annual pre-SHOT Show announcements, Magpul has involved the TMAG 20 AR/M4 GEN M3, a 20-round capacity version of their Transparent magazine technology.

Molded from a durable translucent material with an olive drab hue, it provides shooters the ability to visibly verify various ammunition types and the current round count. Featuring ribbed front and rear straps for improved purchase during magazine changes, the sides are left smooth to enhance visibility.

Due to the shorter length, the 20 rounders lack the high visibility spring and round count markings of the 30-round variant.

Blaser R8 Silence Barrel Now Available in the U.S.

Tuesday, January 7th, 2025

San Antonio, Texas (January 6, 2025) – Blaser is pleased to offer a made in the USA R8 Silence barrel. Built using the company’s proven German design, this barrel with integrated silencer provides exceptional balance, noise dampening, and reduced recoil. And thanks to the compact design, the shooter will appreciate 8-10 inches of overall length savings between the barrel and the R8 receiver construction. The titanium outer sleeve of the barrel and silencer jacket features a smooth bull barrel design, giving the lightweight R8 Silence barrel an attractive, compact, and sleek appearance.

Baffle design and geometry is at the heart of every silencer and directly affects recoil and noise reduction. The Blaser Integral Silencer (ISD) was optimized to the maximum diameter for maximum sound suppression and hearing protection while maintaining the overall aesthetics of the rifle itself.

Designed as a modular R8 option, Silence suppressed barrels will fit existing Blaser R8 rifles with properly relieved forearm or when used with the replacement Ultimate forend.

Blaser R8 Silence barrels in 308 Win, .30-06, and .300 Win Mag will be available first, with .223 Rem, .243 Rem, and 6.5 Creedmoor available in Q2 2025. For more information, see Blaser R8 Silence.

MSRP: $3,395 Silence Barrel, Optional $595 relieved Silence Ultimate forend.

Currently available exclusively through Silencer Central.

Granite Grip-B from Edgar Sherman Design

Friday, January 3rd, 2025

Designed to optimize the AR platform, Granite Grip-B is the beavertail variation of Edgar Sherman Design’s Granite Grip. The Granite Grip-B features boasts a proprietary wrap-around texture in two variations: Fine, for those who like a smoother texture or use hockey tape, and Coarse, for those who desire an aggressive texture for gloved hands and grip in extreme conditions. The reduced grip angle of 13.1°, compared to a standard mil-spec pistol grip, helps with precision but is versatile enough for all applications.

The Beavertail is designed to prevent excess movement during firearms manipulation by preventing your hand from sliding up and into your receiver. The beavertail function also thickens the back of the grip to push your hand further back from the trigger so that those with longer fingers or larger hands ensure their finger is optimized for shooting. This design is great for those with larger hands who want a little more space away from their trigger or for those who don’t want any wrist/hand rotation when reloading or manipulating their rifle.

The Granite Grip is designed, made, and assembled here in the USA.

Compatibility: Fits standard AR-pattern lower receivers like the AR15, M4, M16, AR10, M110, SR25, etc.
