Yes, NSW Has “Adopted” the Glock 19

Wednesday, December 23rd, 2015

Internet forums and gun blogs are all worked up that Naval Special Warfare is adopting the Glock 19 force wide. So naturally, I started getting questions about it but I didn’t realize it was a big revelation or for that matter, a secret. You see, select elements of NSW have been using Glock 19s for years, just like other SOF, due to its reliability and concealability.

Early models were said to be adapted for use in maritime environments by equipping them with maritime cups for the firing pin. As I understand it, over time, use of the Glock 19 began to proliferate throughout the community. Earlier this year some East Coast SEALs conducted an evaluation and the decision was made to adopt them on a wider scale.

However, they haven’t purchased additional pistols yet, nor completed a fielding plan. If there are any new users, the pistols most likely came from SOFSA.

Click to view .pdf

Bravo Company Manufacturing has announced their new BCM PNT Trigger Assembly. The PNT Trigger Assembly is built to exceed MilSpec standards, and each PNT is heat treated and hardened, for increased durability and performance.

PNT Trigger Assemblies are honed, while the trigger and hammer pins are centerless ground. The BCM Disconnector is stamped from 1070 material, and fine blanked and double disc ground to a precise size for consistent and reliable operation. The PNT Trigger Assembly is designed to be 100% compatible with MilSpec lower receivers.

The sear engagement surfaces on the PNT Trigger Assembly is hand polished to reduce friction, and the PNT features an electroless nickel finish to reduce felt creep and grittiness in the trigger press. Teflon particle embedded within the nickel further reduce friction in the Trigger Assembly, and adds further protection to the corrosion, rust, and oxidation resistant finish.

Like all BCM rifles and BCMGUNFIGHTER accessories, the PNT Trigger Assembly is made in the USA.

Rugged Suppressors Releases The Razor 762

Tuesday, December 22nd, 2015

Rugged Suppressors Releases the Razor 762
Short, Light, Quiet & Belt-Fed Rated

Travelers Rest, SC – December 21, 2016 – Rugged Suppressors, the company that created the industry’s first-ever modular rifle suppressor with the Surge 762, has now launched its little brother — the Razor 762.

At 6.4” long and weighing in at 15.3oz, the Razor is the shortest and lightest suppressor in its class. It’s built for enthusiasts and sportsmen who want maximum maneuverability and weight savings. Not to mention, rugged durability.

“We set the bar high with the Surge 762,” says Henry Graham, President. “While building the Razor, we focused on creating a light weight and compact suppressor that features a deep tone, back pressure-reducing design. The Razor really hits the mark on each of these.”

Constructed entirely of 17-4PH Stainless Steel and featuring a full circumference welded Stellite baffle core, the Razor comes more than ready for any caliber up to .300 RUM.

Like its modular brother, the Razor 762 comes with an Unconditional Lifetime Warranty and a Dual Taper Lock Mounting System that ensures wobble-free firing.

Michael Derdizak, CEO of Rugged Suppressors explains, “The Razor, like the Surge 762, carries the title of Belt Fed Rated. This classification of suppressor rating was pioneered by Rugged and serves to illustrate just how durable our products are in comparison to the competition.”

The Razor 762 is available immediately for shipping with a suggested retail price of $950. Visit Razor762.com for more information or to find a dealer near you.

Tango Down – Vickers Tactical Grip Plug/Takedown Tool For Glock

Friday, December 18th, 2015

The Vickers Tactical Grip Plug/Takedown Tool or GGT01 is a 300-series stainless steel Glock takedown tool overmolded into a glass-filled nylon handle, which is designed to seat within the grip cavity of the Glock pistol. The tool itself is similar to the Glock factory tool, allowing users constant access to a tool when field stripping and maintenance is required. The GGT01 also has unique shape within the grip, which allows it to function as a ramp and positive index point for rapid magazine insertion. Additionally, the GGT01 seals off the grip cavity, which prevents dirt and debris from entering the trigger control components.

The GGT01 is designed to function with various GEN 3 Glock models, with GEN 4 to soon follow.

Currently available in Black, Glock Tan, and Grey.

Kinetic Development Group Announces The Release Of The Scarging Handle

Friday, December 18th, 2015

Today, KDG launches their new Scarging Handle – SCAR ambidextrous charging handle. Designed by KDG’s Nathan Murr (A USMC veteran, and inventor of the GripStop), there was heavy input from operators in the field during the development process. The new design was focused on addressing the reported user complaints surrounding the factory FNH SCAR charging handle and its performance during hard use.

The Scarging Handle fits both 5.56 and 7.62 NATO versions of the SCAR, and installs in seconds.The radius-faced design, and swept geometry of the Scarging Handle allows the user to achieve a more solid grasp when manipulating the bolt. This allows for easier charging, clearing of stoppages, and administratively locking the firearm bolt to the rear. The shooter can choose between left or right side installation to match their hand dominance, and can rotate the Scarging Handle to either downward or upward sweep. The downward sweep protects the hand from “busted knuckles” due to optics mounts by keeping it down and away from the weapon’s top. This also has the added benefit of additional leverage gained, and increased grasping surface for larger hands or when wearing gloves. The Scarging handle can alternatively be installed with the curve upward, which provides the user a slick side receiver to prevent snagging or “SCAR Thumb” (i.e. having the reciprocating charging handle strike your hand when using a magwell hold or unconventional shooting method). All Scarging Handles are constructed of low carbon 1080 steel, and finished with a durable black, mil-spec finish. The accessory protrudes less distance from the receiver than the factory unit, and is profiled to be snag-resistant when wearing body armor or other gear.
