ZeroBravo – Reversible Hand Stop
Thursday, November 20th, 2014
ZeroBravo’s Reversible Hand Stop is a KeyMod-compatible hand stop which is designed for use with multiple mounting locations depending on the shooter’s need. Machined from 6061 aircraft-grade aluminum with Mil-Spec Type III anodizing, the RHS features a low-profile size and shape, and weighs in at only .7 ounces. 3-way texturing helps the shooter to keep positive retention on the RHS during use.
As previously mentioned, the RHS is fully reversible and can be utilized in a variety of ways, depending on the shooter’s requirements. Some examples include:
As a hand stop, to prevent the shooter from moving their hand beyond their rail.
On the bottom rail, to properly position the hand and assist with recoil and control, akin to a traditional vertical grip.
On the side rail, to act as a reference so the shooter can maintain proper position every time they draw their weapon.
The RHS is being offered exclusively through RSR Group. Dealers can order the RHS here.

MagPod Production Models Are Nearly Here
Thursday, November 20th, 2014
Back in May, we offered a brief sneak peak of a production model MagPod. We’re happy to say that they’re now very close to being commercially available. Aside from frequent updates on the official MagPod Facebook page, with one comment hinting at a late November commercial release, they’ve also been sending out promotional MagPods taken from the production stock, a few of which we’ve received ourselves.
As a reminder, the MagPod is a replacement floor plate for Magpul MOE Gen2 Pmags which turns the magazine into an effective monopod, easily capable of balancing a fully-loaded carbine. It also functions quite well as a grip when grabbing a mag from its pouch.
Stay tuned for more info as it becomes available.
