VLTOR – VC-NRWL Muzzle Brake

September 23rd, 2016

VLTOR has announced a brand-new muzzle device, the VC_NRWL. In addition, they have partnered with famed firearms industry photographer Stickman and Ranier Arms to produce a version of the NRWL with Stickman laser engraving which will be available exclusively through Ranier for a committed period of time. The full release can be read below:

The VLTOR Weapon Systems VC-NRWL muzzle device gives a unique spin on utilizing gas and blast to help rifles function reliably as well as many other features. The muzzle device directs blast and sound forward and away from the shooter by pushing blast out in one direction. This makes the weapon more controllable and helps eliminate muzzle rise to keep the forend of the weapon on a level sight view.

While being an excellent muzzle device for any 5.56/.223 rifle, the VC-NRWL stands out in short barrel applications by allowing backpressure to be utilized for cycling as well as in situations of weak ammunition.

The Stickman laser engraving is a limited in production quantities and is sold exclusively through Rainier Arms for a committed period of time.

Comes with a crush washer

A standard 1” open end wrench can b e used for installation and clocked to any position desired. No special tools or wrenches required

It has a solid one piece design constructed from stainless steel and then black oxide finish.

½ x 28 thread

3.04” in length

5.4oz in weight

FirstSpear Friday Focus – Factory Visit

September 23rd, 2016

I recently had an opportunity to visit the FirstSpear headquarters and factory so I thought it would be a good idea to show you where all of this gear we share each week is made.

The first thing you’ll notice as you pull up to their facility is the signage. Although, the factory is right off of the interstate, you’re certainly not going to miss it and approach the wrong building.

Once inside, I signed in and was directed to a new sales show room they are configuring. The shelving is still under construction but several of the mannequins featured new products, so I can’t spill the beans just yet. But, once it’s completed, we’ll feature it in an upcoming Friday Focus.

As you can see, the production floor is quite large. You may wonder about the silver pipes. Those allow the individual sewers to direct air conditioning where they need it.

Flotation remains an important segment of FirstSpear’s current offerings. They were pumping out systems like gangbusters during my visit.

Their cutters are what keeps that line running. FS recently upgraded to a larger capacity laser cutter and it has really sped things up.

There’s a lot of prototyping going on right now and FirstSpear’s prototype sewing staff is as big as some companies’ entire production crew. They’re getting ready for some very big reveals this Fall, but the one for SHOT Show will blow your socks off. Expect to see not only new designs, but also new materials.

FS keeps a great deal of raw material on hand, with rows and rows of shelving packed with stock.

Demand for FirstSpear products continues to rise. In spite of their increased production capacity, wait times are only seeming to get longer, so I’d recommend that if you know you’ll need something, order sooner, rather than later.
