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.

    The much anticipated BCM Kinesthetic Angled Grip is finally available. It’s the result of an ongoing collaboration between BCM and Travis Haley, offering an ergonomic forward grip with a reduced profile.

    Manufactured from high-quality, impact resistant polymers, the KAG offers shooters a bio-mechanically efficient handstop platform which complements modern shooting grip techniques. Its forward rake design creates an interface for positive retention and joint limitation relief to the wrist, elbow, and shoulder for smooth weapons manipulations without adding substantial girth to a weapons system. The KAG is textured front and back for positive manipulation.

    The KAG comes in two configurations: KAG-KM for KeyMod, and KAG-1913 for Picatinny rails.

    The KAG-KM utilizes a patent pending snag free internal mounting system, allowing shooters to take advantage of KeyMod, one of the most popular and versatile weapon mounting systems currently available.

    setpiece_KAG_1913

    The KAG-1913 uses BCM’s Direct Mount Picatinny 1913 Interface System which spreads energy and force throughout the accessory while securing the grip to the mounting surface.

    The KAG is available in Black, Foliage Green, Flat Dark Earth, and Wolf Gray.
