Ballistic Advantage is hosting a Holiday Sale and some of their most popular AR-15 barrels are marked down. Several BA Hanson Profile barrels are available including their 17.7″ Midlength 5.56 Performance Series and 18″ Midlength Premium Series. I own the 16″ version of this barrel and it is an excellent shooter. The sale also includes one of the new 6.5 Creedmore barrels and other barrels as low as $101.07.
Mega Arms just rolled out a new product and updated an existing product.
Their excellent Wedge Lock AR-15 Hand Guard is now available with KeyMod attachment slots. The rail has everything you expect from the Wedge Lock Hand Guard series like a titanium barrel nut, 7075-T6 extruded aluminum construction, the exclusive black nitrided wedge locking system, and more. The new KeyMod version is offered along side the current version with MLOK attachment slots.
Mega Arms has updated their MKM MATEN KeyMod Upper. The updated upper’s hand guard features weight reducing cutouts located at the 45 degree positions on the rail with a short section of KeyMod slots toward the muzzle end of the rail at the 10 and 2 o’clock positions where they make sense for attaching weapon lights.
Lone Wolf Distributing is already known for their affordable, drop-in replacement barrels for Glock handguns. Their new Alpha Wolf Barrels are also drop-in, replacement barrels for Glocks but with a host of premium features.
The Alpha Wolf Barrels are turned from stress relieved 416R stainless steel and button rifled, not polygonal rifled like OEM Glock barrels, which makes them suitable for use with lead bullets. Lone Wolf Distributing states that the bore goes through a 3 stage honing process. The barrels are fluted and undergo a salt bath nitride process.
The Alpha Wolf Barrels have already been announced for many Glock models in both stock length and threaded options. Many configurations are already available directly from Lone Wolf Distributing.
Lone Wolf Distributing has also announced that these barrels will be available for the Glock 42 and 43, and that they are developing a 9×18 Makarov conversion barrel for the G42!
Let’s do a thought experiment. I am going to ask you to think of Lone Wolf Distributors (LWD) and then tell me the first firearm that comes to mind…
It probably wasn’t a 1919A4 Belt Fed Semi Auto .308, was it?
LWD is now carrying 1919A4s that are built on original US GI parts that were modified by Israeli Military industries to operate in .308 caliber. Each 1919A4 is then torn down, inspected, worked over, fluffed, buffed, and tested for reliability by master gunsmith and 1919 guru John McGuire.
You know you want one.
