Dipped Stock Ideas from B5

Thursday, November 1st, 2012

20121101-131755.jpg

Folks have been giving their weapon accessories camouflage hydrographic treatments for some time but recently we’ve seen some interesting graphics showing up.

For example, this enhanced SOPMOD stock from B5 Systems sports a Halloween themed graphic. We’ve also seen others with American flag motifs. Considering Gun Culture 2.0 and that not all small arms are being used as working as working guns, we expect to see a lot more of this in the future. I can tell you that Tactical Mama saw this and got to thinking about doing some upgrades to her new .300 carbine. Pink’s just not her thing.

PMAG GEN M3/USGI Rifle Drop Test

Tuesday, October 30th, 2012

The latest installment in Magpul’s ongoing demonstrations of their new M3 PMAG technology is the “Full Weapon Drop Test.” This unscientific test replicates the weight of a full weapon (~8 lbs) dropped from a height of five feet onto a loaded magazine that is seated on a closed bolt. For comparison, they also perform the same drop on a USGI tan follower magazine and then live fire test both magazines.
