NRAAM 18 – Hudson Mfg.

Saturday, May 5th, 2018

Hudson Mfg. is displaying their new drop-in threaded barrel. It features standard 1/2×28 threads, and is currently being offered for sale with Hudson’s various dealers and distributors. When asked about selling H9s with the barrel installed, a rep stated that Hudson’s current goal is to support the customer base who already purchased an H9, rather than offer a whole new H9 model with the threaded barrel.

Here the barrel can be seen installed in the Hudson H9A, the aluminum framed H9 with polymer grip panels, which shaves off roughly half a pound of weight when compared to the standard H9, and a lower MSRP.

NRAAM 18 – Franklin Armory CSW

Saturday, May 5th, 2018

Although I just learned about it yesterday, the Franklin Armory CSW has been out for quite sometime. I’m just surprised it hasn’t been more popular as the most common reaction to goofy gun laws it to stick it to the man by finding a legal way around the poorly crafted legislation. In this case, we’ll call it the “Crew Served Weapon” loophole.

Franklin Armory created the CSW specifically in response to California gun laws. The AR pattern weapon’s stock is replaced with the CSW assembly. Because of the CSW’s configuration, it isn’t classified as a rifle, pistol, shotgun, or AOW. What’s more, it’s not an “assault weapon” either. This means no bullet button, or other accommodations.

The spade grip design has independent triggers on each grip but the original fire control group is retained. Because the linkage attaches directly to the trigger, the rate of fire is not artificially increased. This means it is not classified as a “multiburst trigger activator.”

Now, can you imagine adding a belt fed semi upper to the CSW?

NRAAM 18 – Daniel Defense Rattlecan

Saturday, May 5th, 2018

At their booth at NRAAM, Daniel Defense had their new Rattlecan finish option on display. Inspired by field “rattlecan” paint jobs, and sporting a scale-like appearence, the Rattlecan finish is a two-part Cerakote finish, consisting of Daniel Defense’s Mil Spec+ and Tornado (a grey hue).

Rattlecan is being offered as a finish option for three rifles: DDM4V7, DDM4V7LW, and the DDM4V7PRO, although the finish may extend to additional models in the future.

NRAAM 18 – Shadow Systems Complete Slide Assemblies

Friday, May 4th, 2018

Shadow Systems, a Texas-based manufacturer of Glock slides, barrels, and accessories, has examples of complete Glock slide assemblies on display at NRAAM. Available for G17 and G19, generations 3 & 4, the slides can be completely configured to customer specification via Shadow’s website, allowing for different threaded and unthreaded match barrels, styles of slide, internals, and sights. The end result is designed to drop right onto an OEM Glock frame, or a P80, although the reps did state additional fitting may be required for the later.

NRAAM 18 – Mossberg Introduces Shockwave 590 in .410

Friday, May 4th, 2018

Mossberg has introduced a .410 variant of their popular Shockwave 590 shotgun which joins the 12 and 20 ga models already on the market. As you may recall, the Shockwave is classified as a “firearm” under the Gun Control Act Of 1968 which means its dimensions of 14.73″ barrel and overall length of 26″ aren’t considered a short barrel shotgun.

Franklin Armory – BFSIII For CZ Scorpion

Thursday, May 3rd, 2018

Franklin Armory has just announced the debut of the BFSIII for the CZ Scorpion at this year’s NRA Annual Meeting. Developed with direct assistance from CZ-USA, the BFSIII is a three mode binary trigger assembly for the CZ Scorpion which allows for ‘safe’, ‘semi’, and ‘binary’ firing modes, the latter allowing for the discharge of a round on the pull of a trigger and a round on release of the trigger. Currently, the BFSIII for the CZ Scorpion is being placed into final production, with shipping slated for 3rd quarter 2018. Pre-orders will be made avaiable starting July 4th.

Attendees of the NRA Annual Meetings can see this and more offerings from Franklin Armory at booth 4105.

Check out the video below to see the BFSIII for the CZ Scorpion in action:

H&K – USC 45

Monday, April 30th, 2018

It’s Back! The USC is derived from the .45 ACP HK UMP submachine gun. But remember, it’s imported from Germany specifically for the civilian market, so some of the features we associate with H&K’s military and LE weapons, are missing.

The “featureless” skeletonized buttstock incorporates the pistol grip as well as a rubber cheek rest and recoil pad, for those of you in areas where you need to avoid scary features. However, the USC also features attachment points on the top and sides of the receiver along with handguard for optional Picatinny rails. It also features a ambidextrous safety/selector lever and oversized trigger guard for easy operation while wearing gloves and a 16” cold-hammer forged target barrel.

Unfortunately, it comes with just two 10 round magazines, but still cool, nonetheless. If this goes like the SP5K released two years ago, you’ll want to pick one up on this first release, because there may not be a second shipment.
