Warbringer Detachable Tool System for Weapons Stocks and Braces from Lirces 3

January 27th, 2026


What it is

Developed by Lirces 3, the Warbringer is a modular quick detach striking tool system that works with buffer tube style weapons like the AR-15 and those like it and non-buffer tube weapons like AK47’s and other weapons that do not require a buffer tube. The Warbringer takes popular tools like Hammers, Tomahawks, Ice picks and more and converts the striking tool part into a weapons stock or brace that then attaches to 1 inch extension pieces for non-buffer tube weapons or a quick detach hollow buffer tube handle for weapons with buffer tubes.

Why

Traditional stocks and braces are designed to be light weight and are designed to make contact with the shooters shoulder or forearm for stability and can’t withstand any kind of real strike to targets, buildings or vehicles without severe damage. The Warbringer also is designed to make contact with the shooters shoulder or forearm for stability while shooting but also functions as a striking tool on or off the weapon. The Warbringer doubles in function over traditional stocks and braces and improves upon the weapons capabilities and application in emergencies by transforming a standard stock/brace into a removeable useable tool/weapon on or off the firearm. Lastly by detaching the Warbringer the shooter can save his host weapon from unnecessary striking damage that can ruin the weapon and attachments like optics and laser zeros required for accuracy.

Fit Function and Build Materials

The Warbringer is designed to work with weapons that have a buffer tube or weapons without a buffer tube to work with nearly all weapon systems.

Hammer Stock is made of (S7 Tool Steel)

Hammer Brace is made of (S7 Tool Steel)

Timing Nut is made of (416 Stainless Steel)

Extension Piece is made of (6061 Aluminum)

Hollow Buffer Tube Handle is made of (6061 Aluminum)

Strike Industries Folding & Release Adapter (6061 Aluminum)

Compatibility

AR-15, AR-10, AK-47, Pistol Caliber Carbine, Machine Guns, Designated Marksman Rifles, Assault Rifles, Pistols, Handguns, nearly any weapon system with or without a buffer tube.

Buffer Tube weapons – For use on Ar-15’s and all buffer tube weapons using standard mil spec buffer tubes, the Warbringer has cylindrical Hollow Buffer Tube Handle section with locking bar that fits over buffer tubes to allow adjustability in length for the buffer tubes predrilled length adjustment slots. Simply pullthe locking bar to release the male locking pin and slide the hammer stock back or forth to the predrilled slots in the buffer tube and release the locking bar to select your desired positioning on the buffer tube. The locking bar is pulled or depressed to install or remove from the host weapon.

Non-Buffer Tube Weapons Version- For use on Ak-47 or weapons without buffer tubes the Hammer stock/brace has extension sections with both male and female threads so that they can be stacked together to adjust the overall length of the hammer for comfort while shooting & the required length for using the hammer/tool when separated from the weapon.

This Version requires the use of a folding adapter specificallythe Strike Industries Folding and Release weapons mechanism. A special adapter is included that fits directly into the Strike Industries folding and release mechanism and uses the same screw provided from Strike Industries.

The Warbringer can have a variety of different adapters made to fit any folding mechanism upon request.

Buffer Tube Version Features:

1. The Buffer Tube version has a hollow buffer tube handle designed to fit over weapons buffer tubes and attach and adjust position to the buffer tube slots. The Hollow Buffer Tube Handle also accepts the 1-inch extension pieces & timing nut & tool head in stock or brace to further adjust to each shooter’s length of pull requirements for a perfect fit for any weapon.

2. The Hammer is one of many different striking tools that can be screwed onto the extension pieces, for example hammer axe, Halligan tool, Ice/climbing pick, shovel are all options that can be replaced at any time to meet mission requirements.

3. Timing Nut this nut allows for proper orientation of that attached tool head and locks it in place.

Hammer Brace Features:

The Hammer Brace version is compliant with ATF approved designs for braces to be used for forearm points of contact vs shoulder points of contact.

Fort Bragg Opens Lieutenant General Gavin Joint Innovation Outpost

January 27th, 2026

FORT BRAGG, N.C. — In support of the Department of War’s transformation initiative, Fort Bragg and the XVIII Airborne Corps officially opened the Lt. Gen. James Gavin Joint Innovation Outpost on January 23, 2026.

As the first facility of its kind, building on U.S. Army Division innovation labs, the JIOP serves as a center that bridges tactical and operational challenges with rapid innovative solutions. Designed as a hub for military personnel, academia, and industry, the JIOP aims to collaboratively address problems faced on the modern battlefield.

The facility is named in honor of Lt. Gen. James Gavin, who commanded the 82nd Airborne Division during World War II, leading the division through pivotal moments such as D-Day, Operation Market Garden and the Battle of the Bulge. Following World War II, Gavin became the head of U.S. Army Research and Development and was renowned for his innovative concepts, including the use of helicopters to transport infantry ? air assault ? and the development of modern air cavalry.

“We are honored to name this facility after Lt. Gen. James Gavin, a true visionary who understood the importance of innovation,” said Lt. Gen. Greg Anderson, XVIII Airborne Corps commanding general. “The JIOP will carry on his legacy by fostering the kind of bold thinking and collaboration that he championed throughout his career.”

Appropriately named after Lt. Gen. Gavin, the JIOP focuses on rapid innovation for the modern and future global battlefields.

“The future of warfare is here,” said Rob Braun, XVIII Airborne Corps Chief Technology Officer. “It’s driven by technology and success is impossible without partnerships. The Lt. Gen. James M. Gavin Joint Innovation Outpost is an investment in that future, where we will develop and test cutting-edge capabilities while forging enduring new partnerships with the best of the military, industry, and academia to meet the future head on.”

While the U.S. Army currently collaborates with industry through the Assistant Secretary of the Army for Acquisition, Logistics and Technology office, the JIOP represents the first concerted effort to focus on rapid innovation coordinated with industry and academia at the operational level. The JIOP will connect Soldiers from all ranks and levels to innovative teams capable of developing solutions for current battlefield challenges.

“Every piece of technology we develop at the JIOP has one ultimate purpose: to enhance the lethality and survivability of our Soldiers on the battlefield,” said Col. Thomas Monaghan, director of the Joint Innovation Outpost. “This is about ensuring our warfighters can dominate any adversary, anywhere in the world.”

In addition to addressing modern battlefield problems, the JIOP will foster and strengthen ties between Fort Bragg and regional academic and industrial partners. “At the JIOP, we are creating a dynamic ecosystem where our Soldiers can collaborate directly with the brightest minds in industry and academia,” said Anderson. “This partnership is essential for accelerating innovation and maintaining our competitive edge.”

In recent years, Fort Bragg and the XVIII Airborne Corps have led the way in Soldier innovation through events like Dragon’s Lair and exercises such as Scarlet Dragon. Dragon’s Lair is a competition similar to Shark Tank, where Soldiers pitch innovative technological solutions that range from battlefield applications to improvements in daily quality of life. Scarlet Dragon involves industry partners field testing new technologies with the XVIII Airborne Corps and its subordinate units.

Looking ahead, Dragon’s Lair will feed the JIOP with innovative ideas, which will then flow into Scarlet Dragon for testing, creating a quick, tri-series process to rapidly address challenges for Soldiers in modern and future combat environments. “Fort Bragg has always been a proving ground for Army innovation, and the JIOP is the next chapter in that legacy,” added Monaghan.
