M-LOK AFG

The M-LOK AFG is an update on the popular Angled Fore Grip which incorporates elements from both the original AFG and AFG2 in a new design that is also compatible with Magpul’s M-LOK attachment system. Manufactured from reinforced polymer material, the M-LOK AFG features a new radiused curve grip area in a streamlined, minimalist design. It is 3/4″ shorter than the AFG2 while maintaining a similar gripping surface area, and has a forward finger index similar to the original AFG. The contoured rear surface allows placing the AFG in front of an M-LOK MVG for a more versatile grip combination.

U.S. Tactical Supply – SUPCOV Suppressor Covers

Thursday, November 13th, 2014

SUPCOV Suppressor Covers are now available from U.S. Tactical Supply. Manufactured from a high-temperature silicone composite, SUPCOV covers securely attach directly to the suppressor, and feature internal and external ribs which encourage cooling through convection, greatly increasing the elimination of mirage.

Multiple models of SUPCOV covers exist for suppressors of various sizes and makes. Available in Black or Coyote Brown depending on the model. SUPCOV Suppressor Covers are made in the USA.

As an example, these are the test results of the performance of the M110 SUPCOV as posted by U.S. Tactical Supply:

Test Results on the M110 SUPCOV:

Conditions

Daylight hours

94 degrees

3 x Sniper Instructors

Standard Iron Maiden targets (40”x 20”)

TEST Parameters:

1 x M110 Sniper Rifle fired 1 round every 2-3 seconds with no suppressor sleeve.

1 x M110 Sniper Rifle fired 1 round every 2-3 seconds with a suppressor sleeve.

Both weapons continued with this rate of fire until barrel mirage was too great to accurately engage targets.

Both weapons engaged the same target at approximately 467 meters.

Results:

M110 with no suppressor sleeve began to have significant barrel mirage at 21 rounds; shooter was unable to engage targets and be able to identify what he was engaging after 25 rounds.

M110 with the suppressor sleeve did not have any significant barrel mirage until 91 rounds; shooter was able to engage targets for another 3 rounds until he was unable to identify targets.
