ATI Introduces New AR-22 Stock Kit For The Ruger 10/22 Takedown

Milwaukee – March 10, 2016 – Advanced Technology International (ATI), a leading manufacturer of gun stocks and firearm accessories, is introducing a new AR-22 Stock Kit for the Ruger 10/22 Takedown platform.

The Wisconsin company has taken its popular AR-22 Stock Kit for the original Ruger 10/22 platform and transitioned it to the Takedown line of 10/22’s. The new stock kits allow for full function of the 10/22 Takedown’s break-apart capabilities, while transforming the firearm’s appearance to that of a modern sporting rifle in minutes.

The AR-22 utilizes an AR-15 modeled polymer receiver chassis and the stock kit includes all of the components necessary to make alterations with precise fitment and invisible parting lines.

“We are extremely happy to be able to bring this highly requested product to market for our customers;” said Amanda Mapes, National Sales Manager. “Our engineering team was able to adapt our original design in a way that kept the visual integrity of the AR-22, without sacrificing any of the intended Takedown functionality.”

ATI executes this functionality by utilizing additional aluminum components that mount to the receiver for added rigidity of the system. The front half of the kit’s components install in much the same fashion as the original components do by utilizing the rifle’s original mounting locations.

ATI’s AR-22 Stock Kit for the Ruger 10/22 Takedown is cover by the company’s limited lifetime warranty and is available now at www.atigunstocks.com, from select ATI distributors, and will be hitting store shelves later this month.

Welcome To Our Newest Advertiser, XGO

March 17th, 2016

I’ve written about XGO many times over the years and I’ve got to tell you, I love their stuff. In fact, it’s an honor to welcome them as an advertiser. I actually became familiar with the Polarmax brand while I was still on active duty, before they split the military side of the business off as XGO. Over the years, XGO has done a great job working with end users to provide some very functional and comfortable knit garments. The secret is in the fabrics which are made to their specifications, including performance anti-microbial as well as FR blends. They even offer wool blends.

Longworth Industries, Inc., parent company of XGO® and Polarmax® next-to-skin active apparel. Longworth Industries, Inc. is a vertically integrated manufacturer and our products are manufactured exclusively in the United States and distributed to select domestic and global markets. XGO® also has a complete line of next-to-skin FR products. Our FR products are made up of our patented blend of Modacrylic and FR Rayon.

XGO is a small business right outside of Fort Bragg, in Southern Pines, North Carolina. This company makes Berry Compliant base and mid-layers as well as PT clothing. In fact, almost all of the work, from the milling to the dying and sewing are all done within a 100 miles or so of their headquarters. Only the raw fibers are sourced from outside of the Carolinas.

 

One of their shirts you might want to check out is the new PHASE 1 Lightweight Technical Mesh Shirt. You can look at the photo and realize that the mesh is a tight weave that won’t look out of place in uniform.  In fact, it’s offered in the Army’s new Tan 499 for compatility with the OCP ACU. This relaxed fit T-shirt is made from XGO’s 4 ounce ACCLIMATE DRY polyester which wicks moisture vertically at a rate of 3” in 3 minutes, providing exceptional dry times. This shirt is also finished with their Ag 47TM. As you know, silver has great anti-microbial and anti-fungal properties. As moisture is moved through the fabric, the Ag 47TM attacks the bacteria contained in the perspiration and effectively eliminates odor and harmful bacteria-improving overall hygiene.

To celebrate their aponsorship of Soldier Systems Daily, XGO has extended an awesome deal to SSD readers. Use discount code “SSD50” for 50% off everything on their site except clearance (not stackable) items. This generous discount runs through 3/17-4/2 at COB.
