Strike Industries Announces New SMC Bravo Chassis for Sig Sauer P320

Friday, February 9th, 2024

The Strike Modular Chassis (SMC) – BRAVO for SIG Sauer P320 by Strike Industries is a new lite version of the MOST MODULAR P320 (SMC Alpha) Chassis in the WORLD at a fraction of the Alpha’s price. Customer feedback was heavily weighed and taken into consideration when we developed this chassis so when we say the Bravo was made with the user in mind, we mean it.

The new SMC Bravo is made of Polymer ExtremeTM which is durable and lightweight — intended to receive P320 FCU’s and slides to complete the entire ensemble. This time around users can fully utilize their P320 optics-ready slides to effortlessly install their red dot sights! In terms of upgraded features in the Bravo, the ergonomics have improved with a textured grip which now includes a built-in flared magwell to assist with quick and smooth reloads.

Our optional Ambidextrous Side Charging Handle with a Slide Cover Mount for the P320 is also compatible so each Bravo user can decide which side they want to rack the slide with. This chassis also more universally accepting of many different types of P320 magazines. Users will enjoy the integrated gas pedal above the Picatinny rail to help fight muzzle flip, allowing for faster follow-up shots.

Derived from the SMC Alpha, the Bravo remains consistent as it comes with the SMC Rear Module Backstrap molded onto the new chassis as one solid piece. It offers users rear ambidextrous QD sockets and a Picatinny rail mount, perfect for attaching various accessories like our Strike Dual Folding Stock/Brace. The ambi QD sockets in the rear can be used with slings and can even have a lanyard or paracord strung through it (in case you want to hang this up somewhere quickly accessible).

Whether you’re looking to scratch that sci-fi itch, if you’re an Sig fan, or just want a PDW option, the Bravo is a ton of fun and lives up to its hype.

XS Introduces New Sights for S&W and Colt Revolvers and CZ P10 OR Pistol

Thursday, February 8th, 2024

Fort Worth, Texas (February 6, 2024) – XS® Sights is pleased to offer new sights for Smith & Wesson and Colt revolvers and the CZ P10 OR pistol.

Minimalist for S&W K-Frame and L-Frame Revolvers

Minimalist night sights are now available for S&W K-Frame and L-Frame revolvers. Featuring a self-illuminating tritium with Orange or Green Glow Dot front sight and serrated, anti-glare, non-tritium rear sight, this sight set is designed to be as minimalistic as possible while driving focus to the front sight. The dual-illuminated front sight has a self-luminous tritium vile surrounded by XS’ proprietary photoluminescent Glow Dot that absorbs ambient light to glow in low light. The pairing ensures the front sight will glow brightly in low light and contrast well against the blacked-out rear in bright light conditions. This sight also has a rear sight ledge for one-handed racking of the slide.

Standard Dot Tritium for Colt Revolvers

Tritium Standard Dot night sights are now available for Colt Cobra and King Cobra revolvers. Designed to enhance your everyday carry gun, the unique dual illuminated front sight is available with a Green or Orange Glow Dot and has a convex shape which maximizes light absorption and intensifies the brightness. This new sight offers a superior upgrade over the factory brass sight.

R3D 2.0 for CZ P10 OR

The new R3D 2.0 is now available for the CZ P10 OR Pistol with both standard height and suppressor height options available. These second-generation tritium self-defense sights are brighter, stronger, and even easier to install than the original R3D models. Featuring a notch and post design with two rear tritium dots and a high-contrast, Orange or Green dual-illuminated Glow Dot front sight, the R3D 2.0 is designed to improve speed and accuracy in any light. The self-luminous tritium vile glows in low or no light for 12 years and is surrounded by XS’ proprietary photoluminescent Glow Dot making the front sight brighter than the two rear tritium dots. Combined with the wide notch rear sight, it provides more visible indexing for increased precision and accuracy. The rear sight ledge facilitates one-handed racking of the slide.

Improved features include:

• Bigger and brighter rear tritium dots.

• PVC rings surround the rear tritium dots for a more defined edge to improve sight picture and differentiate the front and rear sight.

• EasyPress features eliminate the need for filing and hammering and reduce the force needed for installation by up to 50%.

• BlackNitride finish with double the corrosion resistance of the original black oxide surface treatment for increased durability.

All XS sights are backed by a 30-Day Satisfaction Guarantee. The company also offers a 12-year warranty on all tritium products and a limited lifetime warranty on all other products. For more information, visit www.xssights.com.

Forward Controls and Rooftop Defense Collaborate on New Sling Mounts

Monday, February 5th, 2024

At Forward Controls, we have always valued simplicity and believe that any added complexities to a system should offer benefits rather than liabilities. While Sling QDs have their advantages, they can also add bulk and liability if used unnecessarily. The fore-end of the AR is one area where we see redundancy. Although we appreciate QD functionality, not everyone requires or desires quick detach capability, especially on both ends of the sling. For those who don’t need or want QD, it’s best to avoid adding a QD swivel that only increases the weight and bulk of the rifle. Additionally, the quality of QD swivels can vary, so it doesn’t make sense to include QD where it’s not necessary and risks introducing a potential point of failure. Forward Controls is happy to Introduce the RSA-H, and in collaboration with Rooftop Defense, the MFH. Both of these sling adapters are designed to be attached to the handguard of your carbine. They both feature a curved 1.25 wide sling loop that does away with a QD swivel and places the sling closer to the bore.

The RSA-H (Rail mounted Sling Adapter, Heavy) is a fixed loop sling adapter designed for Picatinny railed handguards. It is machined from a solid 4140 block of steel. The bolt is partially threaded and also serves as a recoil lug. The clamp dovetails into the RSA-H body. The Picatinny bolt clamp has a unique shape that allows it to be installed only one way, ensuring correct installation. When connected to the RSA-H, they fit together seamlessly. The RSA-H is compatible with BFG’s ULoop, but not with HK hooks. It is designed with a curved loop that allows the sling to pass through without the need for additional attachments.

The loop of the RSA-H can accommodate sling widths of up to 1.25″. Additionally, it serves as an equipment tethering point for high-value scopes, CNVDs, and thermal optics. The recommended torque value for the RSA-H Picatinny bolt is 40 in lb.

MFH is a collaboration between Sol Lehnerd at Rooftop Defense and Forward Controls, it was an idea Sol brought up in the summer of 2022 and wanted to bring to reality. “As a shooter, I have found that QD swivels at the front of the gun like to meet Mr. Murphy and sometimes detach themselves at the most inopportune times. By removing the QD swivel and QD socket, we achieve a simpler setup that’s more robust and better retains the weapon.” -Sol stated during development.

Sol has found the optimal setup for him to be a fixed loop at the front of the gun using MFH and a QD sling swivel mounted on the buttstock. This allows the user to reap the benefits of fixed sling retention on the gun’s forend, but still able to quickly remove the weapon when wearing full kit or fully separate an AR upper and lower for maintenance purposes. MFH is also made from 4140. Recommended torque value is 35in/lbs for attaching to metal hand guards, and 15in/lbs for attaching to polymer hand guards.
