Magpul Releases New M-LOK Accessories

By Matt on October 14, 2014 in Guns

Magpul just dropped the motherload of M-LOK accessories. While not especially sexy, these are the types of items that are necessary to round out the usefulness of and sustain an attachment system like M-LOK.

The M-LOK MVG is an M-LOK compatible, direct-connect vertical grip. Vertical grips are important to any system like this so it is nice to see this on the market. Additionally, Magpul makes these so that they are easy to modify into shorter grips or handstops.

The M-LOK Offset Light/Optic Mount is a versatile light mount. It provides an offset, 3-slot section of rail for mounting lights, optics, and other accessories. You can also direct-connect Surefire’s Scout Lights or use Magpul’s V-Block and Rings to attach any light with a diameter of 0.75 to 1.03″.

Magpul’s M-LOK QD Sling Mount is a welcomed addition to the M-LOK line. This QD sling swivel socket is machined from aluminum and hard anodized, rotation limited, and aggressively beveled to lower the profile and reduce snagging.

Finally, the M-LOK Bipod Mount provides a low profile stud for mounting a bipod.

Arson Machine Light Mounts

By Matt on October 13, 2014 in Flashlights, Guns

Arson Machine makes light mounts right here in the USA, Oregon to be specific. Their line includes mounts for Keymod, M-LOK, MOE Hand Guard Slots, and even a mount specific to the Beretta CX4 carbine.

The mounts are machined from 6061 aluminum with hard anodized finish. They can accept a 1″ flashlight ring or a Scout adapter for Surefire’s M300/M600 series of weapon lights. The mounts are designed to keep the lights relatively close to the rail and offset them from the mounting point.

Check out Arson Machine and keep an eye on them for future releases.

Geissele Automatics Trying to Break the Internet

By Matt on October 10, 2014 in Guns

Geissele Automatics is teasing us! They just released a Youtube video that shows some ridulous split times on a shot timer. How ridiculous? Ridiculous enough that the shot timer couldn’t keep up. It registered just 22 shots out of 30 with .1 second splits. Could this be the previously mentioned faux-auto style trigger that Geissele was exploring? We can only hope.

Viking Tactics Transition Drill

By Matt on October 10, 2014 in Guns, Tactics and Training

Viking Tactics provides a wealth of drills on their Youtube channel that you can incorporate into your range routine. The latest video that they posted is interesting not only for the drill, the Transition Drill, but for an interesting piece of gear that makes an appearance.

The Transition Drill has the shooter transitioning not only between strong side and weak side but also between yard lines and from primary to secondary. There is a lot of transitioning going on with an emphasis on balancing speed and accuracy at various distances. This certainly appears to be a very challenging drill (in spite of how easy Kyle Lamb makes it look).

The video also provides a tantalizing look at a new optic from Leupold called the LCO. It appears to be a red dot sight and Leupold has trademarked the LCO but that is pretty much all I know. Viking Tactics often seems to have new Leupold optics to test before anyone so this may be something hitting shelves soon. It would be nice to see Leupold finally bring a competitive, USA made RDS to market.
