MOD7 HOG Saddle Available Now

Monday, September 24th, 2012

We’ve mentioned the HOG Saddle several times. It’s a mobile shooting platform designed to attach to tripods. It allows the shooter to assume a stable position with the weapon.

List of improvements:

1. Opens 1/4 in wider than original model.
2. Incorporates a retention button screw to prevent unintentional disassembly in the field.
3. Weighs less than 16 ounces.
4. Added cut-outs to the base of the HOG Saddle. These narrow slots better integrate with tripod heads or QR plates that have anti-rotation video pins.

SSD’s War Sport Lower On Its Way

Friday, September 21st, 2012

Back in August we told you about War Sports’ limited run of lowers. After speaking them about the lowers we decided to pull the trigger on one. They are built on Legion Firearms lowers and we had been impressed with them since meeting during SHOT Show earlier this year.

It comes complete with a the B.A.D. 45-degree Ambi Short Throw Fire/Safety controls, Ambi Magazine Release, their MIAD “Mix-Up” grip option, Geissele SSA-E Trigger, VLTOR MilSpec Buffer Tube w/ASAP Ambi Sling attachment and Magpul CTR Stock (color coordinated to receiver). You can choose Receiver color (Tan, OD, Foliage or Colt Gray) and Buffer weight. We chose Tan along with the heavier buffer.

Mystery Ranch gave me a peak behind the curtain and what did I see? A carrier for 3 rounds for the “Goose”. This carrier is designed to work with the MR 3-Day Overload that we profiled earlier in the week and accommodates the Carl Gustav’s 84mm rounds in their shipping tubes.
