Echo Nine Three Eighty Five Grip

By on January 23, 2019 in Guns

Echo Nine Three just release a teaser for their new AK grip and its a looker.

Inspired by the grip of the SVDS rifle and many of the modern grips for M4 type rifles. We set out to bring the same modern handling attributes to the Kalashnikov platform.

Provisionally named the “Eighty Five”. This grip provides an 85 degree grip angle to the line of bore when installed on the rifle. Standard AK grips are typically at 70 degrees.

These are US made of superior quality Baltic Marine Birch laminate and will be available in Soviet Red, Chicom Orange or unfinished. They install with a standard AK grip screw (not included). We anticipate availability in the second quarter of this year. To be placed on the availability notification list, please email us at info@echo93.com. Also, let us know if you prefer finished laminate, unfinished laminate, finished hardwood or unfinished hardwood.

Take a good long look at the new, patent pending Key Fobber from Mean Gene Leather. If you look at it long enough, you will likely come to understand how it works. Mean Gene Leather hasn’t exactly been shouting how it works from the rooftops and so I won’t either. They simply state, “You can stake your life on it.”

The Key Fobber is extremely clever and completely innocuous. It is available in a wide variety of colors and can be engraved with your logo.

Angstadt Arms Introduces SCW-9 Sub Compact Weapon

By on January 21, 2019 in Guns

Angstadt Arms has taken the wraps off their SCW-9 Sub Compact Weapon and their new Sub Compact Stock that is short, short, short!

From Angstadt Arms:

Charlotte, NC, (November 14, 2018) Angstadt Arms is proud to introduce the SCW-9 Sub Compact Weapon. The SCW-9 was designed to meet the strict requirements of the U.S. Army Sub Compact Weapon program. At just 14.7” long and 4 lbs., the SCW- 9 provides greater lethality than pistols and much greater concealability over standard rifles. With a rate of fire of 1,110 rounds per minute, the SCW-9 is capable of accurately engaging threats with a high volume of lethal force.

SCW-9 Key Design Elements

  • Fully ambidextrous controls, including magazine release, safety selector, charging handle and bolt catch and release

  • Accepts GLOCK® 9mm magazines

  • 4” barrel with 3-lug adapter for sound suppression

  • Ability to fire UTM marking and training rounds

  • Overall length collapsed: 14.7”

  • Collapsed stock length: 2.5”

  • Weight: 4 lbs

  • Rate of Fire (approximate): 1,100 rounds per minute

    The Shortest Sub Compact Stock System

    In addition to 9mm, the shortened stock system developed for the SCW-9 has been tested in both 5.56 NATO and .300 AAC Blackout calibers. This allows any M4 style rifle to reduce its overall collapsed stock length from 7” to just 2.5”. Making it the shortest telescoping AR-15 stock system available.

    Angstadt Arms has plans to offer the shortened stock system to other manufacturers who wish to incorporate it into their firearms. A pistol brace version of the shortened stock system is currently in development for the U.S. commercial market.

    About Angstadt Arms: Angstadt Arms designs innovative weapon platforms for military, law enforcement and responsible citizens. Their flagship UDP-9 9mm AR and sub-machine guns are currently deployed in over 25 countries worldwide.
