CMC Triggers Releases Its Long-Awaited Remington 700 Ultra Precision Trigger

By on September 13, 2019 in Guns

Fort Worth, Texas: CMC Triggers, the original manufacturer of the AR Drop-in Trigger Group since 2003, today announced the official launch of the CMC Remington 700 Ultra Precision Trigger. Known for creating the best aftermarket match grade triggers for the AR-15, AR-10, AK and more recently the Glock trigger, CMC has expanded their collection to include the new Remington 700 bolt action rifle trigger.

CMC is not the first company to offer an aftermarket Remington 700 trigger, nonetheless, following extensive research and testing, CMC’s Engineers saw a need to improve upon the trigger’s design where others missed the mark.

Obsessed with safety and compelled to apply it, CMC developed their patent pending Over Center Dynamic Locking System (O.C.D. ™ Locking System).  Analysis of existing OEM and aftermarket Fire Control Systems for the Remington 700 platform exposed multiple opportunities to significantly increase the margin of safety provided by the Fire Control Systems safety mechanism, such as:

  • Interdependency of trigger pull weight, pre/over travel adjustments, and safety margin
  • Unnecessary complexity of the Fire Control System’s safety mechanism design
  • Safety mechanism components manufactured using inferior materials and methods
  • Safety mechanism acts only on sear

CMC Triggers developed their O. C. D. ™ Locking System to overcome all these safety issues.

  • Safety mechanism independent of pull weight adjustment, pre/over travel adjustment
  • Safety comprised of a single internal precision S7 Tool steel investment cast component
  • Manufactured to a .001″ total tolerance using state of the art manufacturing processes
  • Renders all Fire Control System components immobile

Arguably the safest R700 trigger on the market, the CMC Remington Ultra Precision Trigger is an integrated, self-contained trigger assembly with no loose components, and is easily installed requiring no special tools. The CMC Remington Trigger has an adjustable pull weight for long-range precision, tactical use, and hunting. No removal or disassembly of the trigger is required to adjust the weight from 8oz to 3.5lbs. The trigger will come factory set at 2.5lbs.

For ease of trigger installation, the integrated bolt release catch is pre-installed. The trigger and internal components are manufactured from superior S7 tool steel, coated with a proprietary blend of advanced PVD and Hexagonal boron nitride coating giving ultimate corrosion wear-resistance and an ultra-low friction coefficient.

CMC manufactures their Remington Ultra Precision Trigger at its Texas-based state of the art manufacturing facility from CNC-machined aerospace alloy components and CNC-precision tool steel investment castings. Components are finished with cutting edge surface treatments and coating to ensure the highest level of functionality, longevity, and appearance. Like all CMC Trigger’s products, this trigger is exceptionally well made, much more durable than the standard stock Remington trigger, and includes CMC’s Satisfaction Guarantee and Lifetime Warranty.

CMC Triggers Remington 700 Ultra Precision Features: 

  • Integrated self-contained design
  • Easy to Install
  • Zero Over Travel & Zero Creep
  • Available in CMC patented Flat Trigger Bow or Curved Profile
  • O. C. D. ™ Locking System
  • Adjustable trigger weight by user whilst installed in rifle

  • Made from 7070 T6 Aluminum and S7 Tool Steel
  • CMC Triggers Lifetime Warranty

  • Patent Pending O.C.D. ™ Locking System

CMC Triggers modernizes America’s oldest gun manufacture’s bolt action rifle and creates the safest Remington 700 trigger available. Gunsmiths, rifle builders and OEM customers can take advantage of this easy to install rifle upgrade.

OST Target Stencils

By on September 11, 2019 in Tactics and Training

Pre-cut, pre-made cardboard silhouette targets are nice but it can be hard to spend money on them when it seems like a never-ending supply of cardboard is delivered to us almost daily in the form of delivery boxes. Operator Survival Tool is now offering stencils that can help you turn that cardboard trash into training treasure.

Their stencils are made from 10mil thick Mylar material which should basically last forever. They are available in a variety of styles including multiple sizes and styles of silhouettes and some shoot/no-shoot indicators.

You simply trim the carboard however you see fit, lay the stencil over, and spray with your choice of spray paint. You don’t even really need to cut the cardboard to a specific shape and you can even spray multiple targets on the same sheet to create various scenarios.

Check out all the stencils at OperatorSurvivalTool.com.

How (and Why) to Ditch Hydration Bladders

By on September 11, 2019 in Outdoor Gear, Preparedness, Reviews

I remember when I purchased my first hydration bladder. It felt like a superpower. I could basically just conjure water like a wizard. Abrakadabra… Hydration. Several years, experiences, and broken hydration bladders later, I now question whether they are even a good idea.

Why…

A list of grievances:

Hydration bladders are more fragile than almost any bottle. I have broken at least 6 hydration bladders from a wide variety of manufacturers including your favorite. In the best case, your stuff gets wet. In the worst case, you lose your most vital resource.

They don’t handle the cold as well as a bottle that is built for cold. Granted, the bladder itself is usually well insulated enough inside your pack to prevent freezing but your mouthpiece and hose will likely freeze. This can happen even if you are careful about blowing out the hose if it is cold enough.

They are more expensive especially compared to free bottles. That’s right. There are some really good bottles that are basically free with the purchase of something like Smartwater, Gatorade, or maybe those tradeshow freebie sports bottles. Even if you have to buy some bottles for specific purposes, they are less expensive than a bladder (and they lost longer with less maintenance).

They are terrible to clean. If something requires tablets, special brushes, and weird expanding drying rack to clean, it kind of sucks. Those bladders and hoses get really, really nasty if you don’t clean them well.

They make it easy to over-utilize your resources. “Gee whiz, this climb is kicking my tail. I’ll just take a quick swig.” Do that a few times and before you know it, you’ve knocked back all 3 liters and you’re looking for a place to refill. You need to hydrate but hydration bladders make it easy to take in more than you need.

They have the word “bladder” in their name. That’s a little weird, right?

I will grant you that they do have some advantages. The convenience can’t be beat but, again, this is a double-edged sword. They are also often lighter in weight than the bottles required to carry the same volume of water.

This pack in this photo (HPG Ute) has 6 liters of water on board. 5 liters are in bottles on the outside of the pack and an extra liter is tucked inside in preparation for an overnight trip with no water access.

How…

The “how” basically boils down to a few key factors. The first is having the right gear. You need to make sure you have the bottles you need to carry a sufficient amount of water and then you have a pack that will support your new hydration bladder-less existence.

The bottle part is easy. Just find bottles that will let you carry as much water as you would have with a hydration bladder. I like to use the big Nalgene 48-ounce bottles. They are the same diameter as the typical 32-ounce bottles so they fit all the same pouches. Two of them will carry roughly the same amount of water as a 3L bladder. Alternately, the 1-liter Smartwater bottles are a great shape for packing in a backpack.

Speaking of backpacks, I like Hill People Gear packs for carrying a lot of water since they typically have ample bottle pockets and provisions for attaching bottles to your pack belt. I can easily and comfortably carry 5 liters of water on my Umlindi or Ute without even having to stash any water inside the pack. I can place additional bottles in the pack as necessary.

This Hill People Gear Umlindi has almost 5 liters of water on board in preparation for a day far from any water source.

Once you have the gear sorted out, you can address the convenience aspect. This is important because, while hydration bladders can lead to over-hydration, you still don’t want to make it hard to take a drink. My standard is that I must have at least once bottle that can I drink from without having to stop to access it, drink from it, or stow it again. I like to use a sports bottle as you might use on a bike but really, almost any bottle will work. The key is to make sure this bottle is easy to access like on your waist belt or lashed to your pack strap. I just rotate water to the easy access bottle from other bottles when I get a chance.

Don’t submit to the tyranny of hydration bladders any longer. Save money, save headaches, and save water by switching to bottles.
