Introducing the PC Scout Rail from Samson Manufacturing

Thursday, November 7th, 2019

KEENE, NH – Samson Manufacturing introduced their new PC Scout Rail at the 2019 NASGW Expo, and now it is available to order on their website.

The 15″ PC Scout Rail replaces the front and rear sights on your PC Carbine™ and allows you to attach BUIS, Scopes, Red Dot Sights, or Night Vision devices. Due to the unique takedown feature, mounting the optic to the barrel assembly maintains zero and increases repeatability that receiver-mounted options can’t match. The PC Scout Rail mounts using the existing sight screws.

The PC Scout Rail is currently available in black, but colors are available by special order. Contact Samson Manufacturing at 888.665.4370 or esales@samson-mfg.com for details.

CTK Precision Introduces the CTK RPR Universal Bolt Knob

Tuesday, November 5th, 2019

Clintonville, WI – November 2019 – CTK Precision, a manufacturer of shooting equipment and gun accessories, has expanded their line of rifle upgrades with the CTK RPR Universal Bolt Knob.

The RPR Universal Bolt Knob is equally at home on your Ruger Precision Rifle or Remington 700. In fact, it will fit on any bolt with a 5/16″-24 threaded stud.

The RPR Universal Bolt Knob upgrade was designed to offer more leverage and easier bolt lift than a factory installed RPR bolt knob. Three ridges, machined onto the outside diameter of the body, allows for a positive grip on the knob while cycling the bolt. Because these ridges are machined, you’ll never have to look for a missing O-ring, which could be the case with other bolt knobs.

CTK RPR Universal Bolt Knob:

• CNC machined from aircraft quality 6061 aluminum for high strength and low weight.

• Type III hard coat anodized finish.

• Compatible with the Ruger Precision Rifle, Remington 700, or any rifle with a 5/16″-24 threaded stud.

• Installation is made simple by means of the internal set screw, allowing the knob to be locked in place with the supplied Allen wrench.

• Made in the USA!

Grey Ghost Precision MKII Rifles now shipping with Timney Triggers

Monday, November 4th, 2019

Wallace, IDGrey Ghost Precision is excited to announce a new partnership with Timney Triggers for their MKII Lineup of AR-15 and AR-10 rifles.

Since the very first inception of the combat born Heavy .308 rifle, GGP has been very particular when it comes selecting triggers. After all, when buying a top tier complete black rifle, one would expect it to include a premium trigger as well. At least that’s how the minds behind Grey Ghost Precision feel. “When it comes to triggers, we’ve always gone straight to the end user and asked them what they wish was in their duty rifle” says Jason Curns, VP of Firearms at GGP. “All of our rifle offerings are designed for peak performance, whether it’s in the hands of a U.S. Ranger, or a 3-Gun Competitor. Both users demand a reliable trigger that is smooth and crisp with no creep, and a short reset for quick follow up shots.”

GGP MKII Light 556 Rifle

GGP MKII Light 556 Rifles now come with the Timney AR-15 Competition Trigger

GGP rifles have seen a few different bang switches over the course of their history. As one of the minds behind the very first GGP, Jason has tested dozens of offerings over the years. He says “as trigger companies improve their products and roll out packages specifically tuned for different types of shooters, we ourselves constantly test the performance and longevity of each offering, in a conscience effort to keep our rifles extremely accurate and modern.”  When GGP evaluates triggers, they don’t just dump a few mags into a steel trap and call it a day. They put professional fingers on their rifles to ensure that every stage and every feature of the trigger is exactly perfect for application. As someone who squeezes more triggers than most, Team Grey Ghost 3-Gun Team Captain JP Sullivan says “I like a drop-in trigger system that has a trigger between 2.5 to 3.5 pounds. Single stage with an extremely short reset is a must, and absolutely no over travel! There’s a lot you can do to your rifle for that competitive edge, but a great trigger is super critical to good hits and winning times.”

GGP MKII Heavy 308

GGP MKII Heavy 308 rifles also now come with a Timney AR Competition Trigger

As of Q4 of 2019, Grey Ghost Precision is now installing Timney Triggers in all their hand-assembled MKII rifles. “Timney has been setting the bar in the trigger world for a very long time, and they’ve rolled that experience into a superior drop-in trigger for the AR-15 and AR-10 platform. Obviously precision matters greatly to us, and Timney’s reputation for quality and accuracy runs parallel to our mission as well” stated Curns. The GGP MKII Heavy .308 and the MKII Light 5.56 rifles built by Grey Ghost Precision will now feature Timney’s AR Competition Triggers in the straight, flat-faced configuration. Each trigger’s hammer is wire-EDM machined from S7 tool steel, with the other components EDM cut from A2 tool steel, then heat treated to RC 56-60 for long service life. The S7 tool steel has a hardness to resist wear with superior impact resistance to withstand heavy use without chipping or breaking. The cherry on top is the precision-ground finishing that each engagement surface receives to ensure superb reliability and a crisp, clean hammer release.

GGP MKII Grim 6.5 Creedmoor

GGP MKII Grim 6.5 Creedmoor now with Timney 2 Stage Trigger

As for the PRS minded GGP MKII Grim 6.5 Creedmoor rifle, it will now come equipped with the Timney AR Targa 2 Stage trigger. This specialty straight trigger is tuned for a 2lb short first stage, followed by a 2lb second stage with a crisp break and a short, tactile reset that is consistent and clean. “We all know that consistency is conducive to accuracy, and these Timney Triggers are ideal for shooting the best groups you’ve ever patterned with a semi-auto rifle” says Curns.

The best news of all is this trigger upgrade hasn’t changed the MSRP of the GGP MKII rifles at all. The GGP Light 5.56 AR-15 has a retail of $1,899, while the Heavy .308 AR-10 is $2,500 and the Grim 6.5 Creedmoor is $3,099. Be sure to subscribe to the Grey Ghost Precision email list to be alerted as more product release as sales drop by the end of the year.

Mission First Tactical Introduces New Decorated Extreme Duty 5.56 Polymer Mag

Monday, November 4th, 2019

Stunning standard or personal images now grace MFT magazines and more.

MFT standard image offerings for decorated products include (from left to right): Distressed American Punisher Skull, Texas State with Flag, Punisher Skull Splatter White or American Flag M1.

Horsham, Pa. (October 2019) – Mission First Tactical, LLC (MFT™), a leader in USA-made rifle/carbine accessories, is proud to introduce the latest addition to the MFT magazine line, the Decorated Extreme Duty 5.56 Polymer Magazine. Designed for the AR15/M4 platform but allowing for use with a wide range of non-AR15/M4 platforms, these magazines can now feature stunning standard or personal images. A unique process provides for photographic quality in a rugged chemical, scratch, and scuff-resistant image. Express yourself with MFT offerings or let MFT place your unique image on not only the EXDP556 but any of our magazines and more. MFT image offerings including American Flag M1; Betsy Ross Flag; Blue Line American Flag 1; Gadsden Flag; Join or Die; Punisher Skull Splatter White or Distressed American Punisher Skull. Every week, MFT will be offering a limited-edition design as a giveaway and a limited-edition sale only available through its social media channels. Follow and like MFT’s Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter platforms to find out about each week’s giveaway and sale.

Manufactured using the newest material technology and processes, the EXDP556 magazines with their next-generation long glass fiber polymer construction offers the trifecta of perfection in structural performance: strength, durability, and stiffness. The stiffness allows the magazine to maintain its integrity without additional weight with an additional benefit of top performance even at elevated temperatures. The longer length reinforcing fibers produce increased strength and prevents deformation and polymer fatigue. Additionally, the Extreme Duty 5.56 magazine offers increased durability through a more efficient energy transfer between the polymer and the longer fiber filaments during an impact. A long-life USGI-Spec stainless steel spring is corrosion resistant. The four-way, anti-tilt, self-lubricating follower keeps the rounds aligned and makes mag feeding consistent and reliable, while virtually eliminating jambs.

Confidence in handling the Extreme Duty 5.56 magazines are a piece of cake, even during weather or duress. The front and rear of the gripping surface is ribbed for a positive grip, even with gloves. An oversized bolt-catch provides enhanced reliability of the bolt catch operation. The flared floor plate allows for an easier grip in handling and extraction and one-hand reloads. Wrapping up the multiple benefits to the EXDP556 is a paint dox matrix to allow for easy marking and identification of magazines and the tool-less disassembly with the double floor plate safety release tabs.

Mission First Tactical Decorated Extreme Duty 5.56 Polymer magazines are built for hard shooting and extreme treatment and shooting conditions and come with a Lifetime Warranty.

Decorated Extreme Duty 5.56 Polymer Mag Specs:

Height: 7.494”

Width: .940”

Length: 2.525”

Colors: American Flag M1, Texas State with Flag, Punisher Skull Splatter White, Distressed American Punisher Skull, or personal image selection

MSRP: $ 24.99

Griffin Armament Superior Precision Rifle Modular Mounts

Sunday, November 3rd, 2019

Next Generation, Sniper-Grade, Precision Rifle Optic Mounts

Griffin Armament is a firearm industry manufacturer founded by two Army Infantry sniper qualified combat veterans. Although they are best known for their high-performance signature reducing sound suppressors, founders Austin and Evan have recently leveraged their lifelong passion for precision rifle marksmanship and nearly a decade of notable research and development into a completely new product line, The Griffin Armament Superior Precision Rifle Modular Mounts.

Relatively featureless optics mounts have dominated the market space for nearly half a century. Contemporary mount design and technology dates back to the mid-1980s. This trend of industrywide complacency has officially ended with the announcement of this new product line from Griffin Armament.

Griffin’s SPRM™ mounts feature a unique patent-pending design that splits the rings on two parallel but offset planes, allowing for the integration of Accessory Interface Suite (AIS™) products on 5 mounting surfaces. This system affords mounting opportunities on both left and right sides, 45-degree mounting surfaces on either side, as well as the top mounting surface to be used for accessory interfaces. Griffin SPRM™ mounts deliver unsurpassed flexibility and utility to the discriminating user. Left-handed or right-handed shooters are equally supported with the SPRM™ mounts and accessories.

At the time of this launch, The Superior Precision Rifle Modular Mounts are available in multiple heights in 30MM, 34MM, and 35MM ring sizes. Models are available in both standard vertical (0 MOA cant) and cantilever orientations (15 MOA cant) . They are designed to support as many optic and firearm combinations as possible. From rimfire trainers to heavy gas guns, there is a Griffin SPRM™ model optimized to fit your rifle setup.

A heavy emphasis on anatomically correct positioning of optics was placed on AIS™ products, leading to the development of the RAPID TRANSITION OPTICS plates. RTO™ plates position secondary non-magnified optics on optical centerline relationship with the stock comb for comfortable, rapid, targeting with a simple roll of the host firearm. These plates currently support the following optic models: Aimpoint ACRO, T1/T2, H1/H2, Comp M5, Sig Romeo, Vortex Spark, Trijicon RMR , SRO, Holosun HE507C HS407C, HS508C, Leupold Deltapoint, J Point, Optima, Dr Optic, Meopta, Insight microdot, Burris Fastfire, Vortex Venom, and Viper, CMORE STS, RTS, STS2, and Vortex razor. Picatinny RTO™ plates are also offered. Flat mount AIS™ products support a myriad of optics as well as Wilcox RAPTAR, Simrad, and Picatinny (STANAG 4694 “NATO Accessory Rail”).

SPRM™ mounts are manufactured in the USA at Griffin’s Wisconsin manufacturing facility. Mounts are machined on state-of-the-art multi-axis CNC equipment from 6061 T6 aluminum. Manufacturing in-house provides Griffin Armament with the ability to control quality at levels rarely delivered by contract manufacturers. The geometries of Griffin SPRM™ mounts are machined to part datums probed on each part. Prior to machining, costly manufacturing time is dedicated to each part with Renishaw probe strategies coupled with Renishaw RTS set tool magazines. This ensures critical geometries are machined to positional accuracies of +-.0002”rather than depending on human loading accuracy in a much looser relationship to workholding based datums typically found in traditional optic mount industry manufacturing processes. By bringing aerospace industry segmented production engineering concepts and inspection equipment to optics mount manufacturing, Griffin Armament has successfully enhanced the state of optical mount quality. This persistent dedication to quality ensures that the theoretical mount quality and the actual production mount quality are inseparably linked for uncompromised, superior precision.

Griffin Armament’s unwavering drive and commitment toward the transformation the optic mount market segment will continue to serve as the catalyst for future product development. The SPRM™ mount platform was born from a passion for the pursuit of excellence in product development. The next generation of precision optic mount technology has arrived, Griffin Armament Superior Precision Rifle Modular Mounts.

SPRM™ Features:
• AIS™ (Accessory Interface Suite) allowing the user to mount accessories on 5 sides of the mount body
• RTO™ (Rapid Transition Optic) accessory support – ability to mount Rapid Transition Optic plates to the system for a 40° offset to the primary optic, maintaining identical optical centerline height
• Ambidextrous support
• Individually probed during the manufacturing process for peerless dimensional consistency
• Stanag 4694 Compliant attachment, for precise return to zero
• Utility patent pending to support future technology development in the electro-optics industry

SPRM™ Specs:
• Unibody construction
• 6061 T6 aluminum
• Type 3 milspec hardcoat anodizing
• 12 (qty), 8-40 T15 fasteners for ring clamping
• 4 (qty), 10-32 fiber lock patched T15 fasteners for rail clamping
