Magpul News: M-LOK Rail Cover Type 1 and Enhanced AR Magazine Release

By on October 6, 2015 in Guns

Magpul released two interesting news items today. The first is that the long awaited M-LOK Rail Covers, Type 1 are now shipping. These lightweight covers fit extremely close to the rail and offer grip thanks to their flexible material. Think of them as M-LOK’s answer to picatinny rail ladder covers.

The second news item is the release of Magpul’s new Enhanced AR Magazine Release. This two piece magazine release button is extended and has increased surface area over the standard release. Both parts are made from hard anodized aluminum and all hardware is included.

IWC Installing QD Micro Flush Sling Mounts in Magpul MOE SL and MOE M-LOK Hand Guards

By on October 6, 2015 in Guns

Impact Weapons Components makes a ton of handy widgets and the QD Micro Flush Sling Mount is likely their handiest. I have sung their praises on these pages before.

They are great solution for adding a sling mount to Magpul’s MOE Hand Guards and they are very easy to install. However, I realize that some of you don’t have the time, tools, or inclination to do it yourself and it is for guys like you that IWC offers MOE Hand Guards with the QD Micro Flush Sling Mounts professionally installed.

Previously, these were only available on the original MOE Hand Guards. Now IWC has expanded the service to include all in-stock MOE Hand Guards including the new MOE SL and M-LOK compatible versions. Check out all the options at IWC and don’t forget to use code “triggerjerk” at checkout to save 5%.

Saurez RMR Sight Package for Advantage Arms 22LR Conversions

By on October 5, 2015 in Guns

Saurez International now offers an RMR Sight package for Advantage Arms 22LR Glock Conversions. These conversion slides have always a good solution for Glock shooters looking to practice sight alignment and trigger control at the reduced cost of 22LR but until now there hasn’t been an RMR mounting solution that approximates a carry gun.

The basic package includes the necessary machining, installation of taller co-witness sights, and the adapter plate for $125. If you need an RMR or installation of an RMR that you already own, the price is adjusted accordingly.

This package makes the AA conversion a viable training option for those of you who carry an RDS equipped Glock on a regular basis. That is all well and good but we all know that this also has the potential to be the world’s raddest squirrel hunting rig.

Elfmann Tactical AK Trigger

By on October 2, 2015 in Guns

The new AK Trigger from Elfmann Tactical is now available. This single stage, cartridge style trigger features wire EDM cut A2 tool steel components, adjustable pull weight from 4-5 pounds (via spring swap), and the option for a curved or flat trigger bow. Elfmann Tactical uses what they call an exclusive “Double-Double” would hammer spring which is reassuring given the harder primers that can be found on some surplus ammo. It is also reassuring that they have designed in a full 3/8″ of sear engagement to prevent doubling as the engagement surfaces wear from use.

Be advised that due to the cartridge construction of this trigger, there may be some fitment issues with some AK receivers.

RE Factor Tactical Essentials Target

By on October 2, 2015 in Guns, Tactics and Training

RE Factor Tactical has added a third target to their lineup. It is called the Essentials Target and it is basically an entire range tune-up session on a single sheet of paper. You can read more about the 150 round course of fire that it takes to complete the target on the RE Factor Tactical Blog.

Of course, you don’t have to complete the entire course of fire every time you hang up the target. You can choose to complete only certain component drills or you can make up some of your own uses for a target this versatile.

Check out the new Essentials Target at RE Factor Tactical.
