The AXTS billet upper receiver is mated to a 7075-T6 aluminum foreend—retaining unprecedented rigidity while still allowing the user to quickly and easily remove the handguard if necessary. The MI-T556 features Magpul’s M-LOK system for quick and secure mounting of any MIL-STD-1913-based accessory. Ambidextrous functionality is retained in the upper, with the inclusion of the industry-leading AXTS Raptor charging handle.

Beneath the MI-T556’s foreend is a stainless steel Shilen 416R-derived, with a proprietary AXTS barrel contour 1:8 barrel chambered in .223 Wylde. The MI-T556 will initially be released with a 14.5” barrel, guaranteed to ½ MOA*, topped off with the purchaser’s selection of factory pinned muzzle device from the following manufacturers: SureFire, AAC, Silencerco, BattleComp, and Knight’s Armament Corporation. Buyers may also send in their own muzzle device for factory pinning to 16” overall barrel length. The MI-T556’s bolt carrier is manufactured from case hardened 8620 steel with properly staked 4130 steel gas key. The accompanying bolt is case hardened 9310 steel, shot peened, HPT and MPI tested, and finished in a self-lubricating polished black nitride. Bolt lugs are CNC ground following heat treatment to insure the greatest accuracy possible. The MI-T556 is finished in low visibility AXTS Grey Cerakote and ships with one Magpul PMAG magazine.

GEMTECH Announces The Release Of The ONE Suppressor

Thursday, January 15th, 2015

Boise, ID—14 JAN 14

“It swelled with amazing speed to a profound clamor that involved the earth in noises. The splitting crashes swept along the lines until an interminable roar was developed. To those in the midst of it became a din fitted to the universe.”
Stephen Crane

One - 1

Clamor sucks. Kill it with a can.

The ONE suppressor from GEMTECH is the suppressor world’s new go-to can for any application. Use it on everything from your .300BLK carbine to 5.56 SBR and on up to 300WM; it’s the only silencer you’re going to need for your centerfire rifle. Yeah. From 5.56 to 300WM. How’s that for functionality?

one - 2

The ONE is an “Extreme Duty” silencer, full auto rated on 5.56mm as short as 7.5” barrels. Length is a tight 7.5” with a diameter of 1.625 including shroud (so, not much girth). Weighing in at just a smidge over a pound, built of Titanium and Inconel with an interchangeable QD mount or thread mount option and high temp black Cerakote finish, this suppressor is rated for 300 Win Mag on 24” or longer barrels. Its slim profile is about the same diameter or smaller than everything else in its class, which should make everyone happy.

If GEMTECH doesn’t have a can that suits your needs, you’re probably reliving the Civil War or trying to knock out an IFV. The Latka-Dater tradition continues.

Arisaka Defense Announces New Vertical Grips And Optic Leveler

Wednesday, January 14th, 2015

Arisaka Defense products

Apex, NC, January 6, 2015 – Arisaka LLC is pleased to announce the release of its new Vertical Grips and Optic Leveler.

The Vertical Grip is a robust, minimal foregrip for KeyMod, M-Lok, and CMR handguards. It features a radiused profile at the top which tapers to meet the mounting surface on the handguard, giving a low-profile feel and ergonomic comfort. Twin mounting screws ensure secure attachment. The Vertical Grip is CNC machined from 6061 aluminum and type III hard coat anodized. It weighs 1.8 oz, is 2.5″ in height, and 1.3″ in diameter.

The Optic Leveler is an inexpensive, easy-to-use tool for leveling scopes mounted in rings or one-piece mounts. The base plate sits on the Picatinny rail or one-piece mount just below the turret cluster of the scope, which is intentionally left slightly loose in the rings so it can rotate. The leveling wedge is inserted from the side into the slot in the base. As the matching ramped surfaces of the wedge and base engage, the top of the wedge rises upwards and contacts the turret cluster, causing it to spin until level. The user can then proceed to tighten the scope rings.

All Arisaka products are made entirely in the USA.
