AR Performance Shorty Brake

By on March 24, 2014 in Guns

I recently covered the development and release of the Adams Arms Manimal Flash Suppressor, a muzzle device narrow enough to allow a .750″ gas block pass over it which is a useful feature for those with pinned muzzle devices. It has now come to my attention that there is also a muzzle brake option with similar functionality offered by AR Performance.

The Shorty Brake from AR Performance is not long enough to bring a 14.5″ barrel to a legal 16″ length. It is geared toward states that require pinned muzzle devices as part of their AWB legislation. As such, the Shorty Brake is actually as short as possible, adding only 5/8″ of length to the overall length of the rifle. It’s .750 outside diameter allows it to be permanently attached but still give the user the option of removing their gas block if they wish to install a new handguard.

Anything that gives ban state shooters more options is a good idea in my book. Check out the Shorty Brake at AR Performance.

Midwest Industries has released their own Internal Light Mount end cap for their IWI Tavor rails. It is designed to hold lights with 1″ diameter tube bodies inside the handguard.

Interestingly, it can also be used to mount a Surefire Mini Scout Light completely contained within the handguard. MI promises that this will come in handy for a future release.

These will be available soon in both black and FDE. Check out Midwest Industries.

Piston-Compatible COP Monolithic Uppers from Aero Precision

By on March 21, 2014 in Guns

Aero Precision is working to bring a new piston compatible version of their COP Upper to market. It will have all the same user configurable monolithic rail functionality that you have come to expect from the COP Upper but the new version will allow the use of various gas piston systems like those from Adam’s Arms.

The uppers will be available separately initially. Kits that come bundled with an Adam’s Arms piston system will be available soon. Pre-sales on the upper receiver alone will start soon with delivery coming sometime in April.

IWC KeyMod Bipod MOUNT-N-SLOT

By on March 20, 2014 in Guns

Impact Weapons Components just released their very compact KeyMod Bipod MOUNT-N-SLOT. This small stud has no fasteners to come loose, weighs next to nothing, and has almost no footprint on its own. You simply place it on your KeyMod compatible rail and then use your bipod’s integral clamping mount to attach the bipod to the stud.

Check out the KeyMod Bipod MOUNT-N-SLOT at Impact Weapons Components and use code “triggerjerk” for 5% off your order.

Wilson Combat and Ernest Langdon Create Drool Worthy Beretta 92s

By on March 20, 2014 in Guns

If there is a man who you can trust to know how to make the Beretta 92 sing, it is Ernest Langdon. He is well known for his long time (and long discontinued) custom work on Berettas and his winning ways in competition shooting with Beretta handguns. I was fortunate to purchase several parts from him back when I owned a Beretta 92 that I picked up for a song back in my college days (I miss that gun). Wilson Combat can certainly be trusted to execute that vision.

Given the names who are involved, I was very excited to see on Pistol-Training.com that Ernest Langdon was acting as an adviser to the folks at Wilson Combat as they introduced new custom parts and services for the Beretta 92. Now if I could just scare up a good deal on a Beretta Vertec 92G to send in for some custom work, I would be a happy man.
