Kicking off 2018 is the announcement of the Magpul Pro 700 Rifle Chassis. At the very start of our bolt action program – and even from the earliest days of Magpul precision rifle training – we knew that the ultimate goal was to build the best possible “no limits” rifle chassis in the world. After years of design, prototyping and testing, and guided by Magpul Core and other accomplished shooters from military, law enforcement, and competitive backgrounds, it’s time to show our hand.
The Magpul Pro 700 Rifle Chassis is an uncompromising, full featured precision rifle chassis for short action Remington 700 actions and other Rem 700 footprint actions. The Pro 700 combines innovative engineering, precision machining, MILSPEC quality finishes, and an extensive list of purposeful design features with complete adjustability to provide demanding end users with the most comprehensive available precision rifle platform solution for true out of the box performance.
Based on a full billet aluminum skeleton and clad in Magpul polymer for environmental comfort, noise mitigation, and ergonomics, the Pro 700 is also fully ambidextrous. Capable of fitting both right and left handed actions with the simple swap of a bot-cutout plate, and with a reversible cheek riser and reversible hinge on the folding version, “lefties” haven’t been left out.

Surefeed Magazines (Okay Industries) is set to release a new aluminum AR-15 magazine with a host of unique and functional features.
From Surefeed:
New Britain, CT –Okay Industries, the world’s most experienced AR magazine manufacturer, has introduced the SureFeed E2 magazine. This evolution of the SureFeed 30 round product line is the result of over 45 years’ experience manufacturing M16/M4 magazines for the U.S. military. Patented feed lip design, textured side panels, a new anti-tilt follower, and caliber markings complete the evolution for Okay’s new SureFeed E2 magazine taking it to the next level for handling and performance.
SureFeed E2’s patented feed lips dramatically increase reliability by decreasing the force necessary to strip the cartridge from the magazine. This low friction feed lip design helps the rifle continue to function when dirty or fouled with carbon. An industry first for metal magazines, the textured side panels of the SureFeed E2 have been designed to improve handling even with wet or cold hands or while wearing gloves. Okay’s textured pattern is aggressive enough to provide a positive, secure grip without interfering with insertion or removal from magazine pouches. Also an industry first is an embossed “5.56MM” marking on each side for quick an easy caliber identification.
SureFeed® E2 magazines are 100% made in the U.S.A. with components that meet or exceed demanding Mil-Spec requirements. The magazine bodies and floor plates are made from lightweight 6061 aluminum and heat treated to U.S. military specifications for strength and durability. All magazines are hard coat anodized and available with either a Mil-Spec DFL (dry film lube) grey finish, Tactical Black PTFE finish or Desert Tan PTFE finish. Our anti-tilt, self-lubricating, non-hygroscopic polymer follower and high-performance Mil-Spec stainless-steel spring keep rounds properly aligned and tensioned for flawless performance.
Reliability is the most important quality for any magazine. Okay Industries achieves this reliability through extensive quality controls. Every magazine goes through an exhaustive battery of Mil-Spec inspections and tests before being shipped. Some of the areas tested include weld integrity verification, feed lip tolerance and component quality verification. This all leads up to final assembly where proprietary qualification of each magazine is 100% tested for fit and function. This proprietary inspection and testing process results in the superior quality of SureFeed® magazines and is the reason Okay Industries has been an authorized supplier to the U.S. Military since co-developing the original USGI 30rd magazine in 1973.
The Ultimate drop in trigger for your pistol, the E-CTG9™ trigger can be configured for Carry (Self Defense) or Competition (Target) use and comes complete with our improved trigger spring kit so you can set the ultimate trigger pull on your handgun.
The trigger housing features our SSR (Super Short Reset) 3.5Lb Connector that delivers the same trigger profile as the factory unit but is highly polished and re shaped to reduce friction and create a much smoother, lighter more consistent pull.
This connector makes super fast reset of the trigger possible, allowing for very quick follow up shots and reduced friction means less resistance for smooth operation.
Our Trigger Bar is manufactured from a proprietary blend of 420 Stainless Steel and polished to produce an ultra smooth hard wearing surface that reduced friction and trigger pull interference as it operates against the connector and internally against the pistol frame.
The included spring kit comes with the following parts to assist in reducing trigger pull further.
x1 Reduced Power Firing Pin Safety Spring & Ultra Smooth Safety Plunger.
Springs are manufactured from the highest grade piano wire and tempered for the best service life.
Each spring is calibrated to deliver consistent force through the entire compression cycle for reliable operation every time the pistol is fired.
With nearly 30% more power our Trigger Spring actually reduces the pull weight by as much as 1Lb.
The lower power Firing Pin Safety Spring reduces friction caused by the firing pin plunger engaging with the trigger bar and creates a much smoother operation of the parts.
The Triggers Pivot Pin and Trigger Bar position has been carefully considered to deliver maximum leverage with minimum force and the hybrid bow face is a perfect blend of curved and flat surfacing that delivers comfort with improved ergonomics and finger positioning.
The bow is precision machined from certified 7075-T6 aluminum and hard coat anodized Type3 Class2 Black.
Triggers are assembled in house and come with our lifetime warranty against defects in manufacture.
