Tuesday, January 17th, 2012

Hog Saddle showed us a couple of improvements they made to their tripod mounted rifle rest.

For one thing, they’ve replaced the polymer adjustment knob with a MilSpec aluminum version which is more robust.

Additionally, they’ve added coyote urethane pads as an option.

The mount is solid and will hold all but the most unbalanced rifle in place so that the shooter can accomplish other tasks. Additionally, spotters have begun to adopt the Hog Saddle for their spotting scopes.

One final feature that bears mentioning is that the Hog Saddle does not require an adapter and can be attached directly to any 1/4-20 or 3/8-16 thread attachments. This can be a huge space and weight savings.

Made in USA. Get yours from US Tactical Supply or HogSaddle.com.

And They Said It Would Never Happen

Sunday, January 15th, 2012

H&K USA is releasing the gas-piston, MR556A1 upper assembly to the market. Ever since a limited number of HK416 upper receivers showed up for sale on internet websites several years ago, fans have hoped that they would make the MR556A1 upper available for general sale and its finally happened.

The upper receiver kit will include a barreled flat top upper, Free Floating Rail System handguard, bolt carrier assembly, buffer, and buffer spring. The bolt carrier assembly, buffer, and buffer spring are all different than standard US Mil Spec items.

Fortunately, the MR556A1 features the same take down pin geometry as US Mil Spec Carbines so you will be able to plug it right in. Some variants of the civilian model do not share this feature.

Since it’s an upper, you can purchase the assembly as a part to attach to your existing gun so you won’t need ATF approval. However, make sure you are sitting down when you read this next part. The MSRP is reportedly $2195.
