Sneak Peek: Forward Control Designs ABC/R v2

By on April 10, 2017 in Guns

Forward Controls Design is working on a new version of their Augmented Bolt Catch/Release (ABC/R). The new ABC/R v2 will feature a thinner, tapered upper paddle instead of the lightening cuts found on the original ABR/R.

This change will cut weight where it counts the most on a bolt catch. Before someone pitches a hissy fit about how lightweight AR accessories are out of control… It is important to keep any additional weight on the bolt catch to minimum. Additional weight on the paddle can cause reliability issues like the bolt locking back before the magazine is empty. I’ve seen these malfunctions caused by a number of aftermarket products that attach to the bolt release.

Sneak Peek: Scalarworks OPS Sights

By on April 8, 2017 in Guns

You may remember the sneak peek of early prototype sights from Scalarworks that we showed months ago. Now we have a look at a more refined, closer to production set of these sights.

The front sight is radically skeletonized like you would expect from Scalarworks and weighs .94 ounces. The photo shows it’s tool-free elevation adjustment via a thumb wheel under the front sight post.

The rear sight is also skeletonized and weighs 1.35 ounces. It also features tool-free adjustment via a cleverly designed, dished wheel that prevents the accidental turning that can happen with some rear sight drums.

Stay tuned for pricing and availability. Keep an eye on Scalarworks.com.
