Introducing BCM Mk2 Charging Handles

Thursday, August 24th, 2023

Meet the new BCM MK2 Charging Handles.

IMMEDIATE ACTION

Driven by over a decade of feedback from real-world combat operations, BCM has made continual design refinements and structural improvements to the charging handle in the M4 and M16 to address the current manual of arms for the weapon system.

Optimizing the contours into a snag-free profile that facilitates immediate manipulation with an end user’s reaction side grip, the range of BCM Charging Handles is available with both ambidextrous and asymmetric controls as well as a size range accommodate different end- users handsize.

There are four types:

Medium Asymmetric
Medium Ambi
Large Asymmetric
Large Ambi

MK 2 RECEIVER OPTIMIZED

The U.S. patents pending BCM Mod 3 Charging Handle now features upper and lower and side exhaust channels to vent gas from the chamber away from the shooter during operation of the weapon. While these channels are optimized for the BCM MK2 Upper receiver, they still provide improved gas diversion on all Mil-Spec upper receivers.

LIFE SAVING TOOLS

Redesigned to eliminate the load on the pivot pin and keep the energy from charging close to the centerline of the carbine/rifle, BCM Mk 2 Charging Handles provides an uninterrupted engagement surface with no pinch points to catch skin or other material that could induce a malfunction during a time-is-life manipulation.

A patented ambidextrous design with simplified mechanism for robust performance, each Charging Handle is crafted with MIL-SPEC grade forgings and machined from 7075 T6 aluminum, with a hard coat anodized finish per Mil-A-8625F, Type III, Class 2.

GBRS Group Announces Lerna Mount Kit

Friday, August 18th, 2023

The new Lerna Mount Kit from GBRS Group is going live this weekend.

Developed at the request of end users who preferred the 2.91 optic centerline for its fast target acquisition and heads up posture but didn’t need an IR laser, the team created the Lerna Mount.

This stand alone option is intended for those who operate with gas masks, those dealing with a cross eye dominant issue and those who seek a more natural position when transitioning from pistol to rifle.

Interestingly, the screws are custom stainless steel (with GBRS on the heads) for the mount and the clamp bar is made from stainless steel.  

The mount will be available in three footprints; AIMPOINT T2, EOTECH HWS, and TRIJICON MRO.

Coming August 19th at 1300 ET.

The New Mod 2 SOPMOD Stock from BCM

Thursday, August 17th, 2023

Today, BCM unveils their latest buttstock, the Mod 2.

FIT LIKE A GLOVE BUILT LIKE A TANK

Hand made by Americans in Hartland, WI – the BCM® Mod 2 stock is an improvement over the baseline M4 accessory with enhanced ergonomics, and next-level durability.

Recontoured into a patented (United States Patent Number: D901616) semi-clubfoot design, the Mod 2 is fits on Mil-Spec carbine receiver extensions, and optimized for intermediate length receiver extensions (MK2, AR10, A5). These improved lines also enhance shooting in the prone position while remaining snag free, with no edges to catch or tangle in slings, antenna, or other PPE.

A SCION OF CONFLICT

DELIVERING UNSURPASSED PERFORMANCE

Retaining the patented* internal latch system and the ambidextrous rotation limited QD interface, the BCM Mod 2 Stock features an end user removable buttpad, an improved VBOST (Vehicle Borne Operations Sling Tab) sling retention point, “plus two additional web sling attachments slots.

ADAPT TO YOUR MISSION

VBOST

The VBOST is an interface that provides multiple positions for retention bands when the weapon system is run with the sling “S-folded” against the stock. Typically configured in this manner for vehicle operations or concealed “low vis” movement, the VBOST creates options for the end user that can be vital in critical life saving situations.

MODULAR BUTTPAD

Selecting between a rubberized pad, traditional in light infantry operations; or solid diamond textured non-slip surface, optimized for high-ready weapons manipulation, the removable Modular Buttpad is capable of enabling both techniques.

MADE IN AMERICA

All BCM components and accessories unite state of the art manufacturing with lightweight and durable materials to ensure components that last a lifetime, performing far beyond performance requirements established nearly six decades ago.

UNITY Tactical Expands FAST Line to Support Additional Optics

Tuesday, August 15th, 2023

New FAST™ MicroPrism and FAST™ FTC PA designed specifically for optics from Primary Arms®
BROUSSARD, LA. (Aug. 15, 2023) – UNITY™ Tactical, a designer of components that integrate tactical systems and optimize the human factor, announced the launch of two new FAST™ mounts today, expanding the line to increase compatibility with additional optics.

The FAST MicroPrism positions Primary Arms® MicroPrism™ optics at the established FAST height of 2.26″ to the optical centerline from the rail. It is also compatible with other optics of industry standard mini-prism footprint, though heights may vary depending on the optic.

The FAST FTC PA magnifier mount employs UNITY’s FTC (flip-to-center) technology – already found in the FAST FTC OMNI and FAST FTC 30MM– specifically to bring the Primary Arms MicroMagnifier to the 2.26” FAST height.

“We want to ensure a wide range of end users are able to enjoy the benefits of a heads-up shooting posture,” said Mike Roth, VP of business development for UNITY Tactical. “That means bringing all available optics on the market to the FAST height of 2.26 inches, and we’re glad to support Primary Arms customers with these mounting solutions.”

The FAST MicroPrism and FAST FTC PA are designed to work together with minimal occlusion of the primary optic when the magnifier is stowed.

Both new FAST mounts are available in black or FDE, and mount directly to an M1913 rail. The FAST MicroPrism comes standard with a two cross bolt rail clamp but is compatible for retrofit with a FAST QD Lever. It retails for $186.

The FAST FTC PA comes standard with a FAST QD Lever and retails for $265.

Both the FAST MicroPrism and FAST FTC PA offer a lifetime warranty, and are available for purchase now through authorized UNITY dealers and on UNITYtactical.com.
