V Seven Weapons AR-15 GI Lower
V Seven Weapons just took the wraps off their new AR-15 GI Lower. This forged lower incorporates features that are typically only found on billet lowers and adds a bit of V7 flair.
The lower starts with a 7075-T6 forging which is then machined to final dimensions. V7 finishes the lowers with a typical hard anodizing but takes it a step further by adding a coating of KG Gun Kote. The front of the mag well is textured for those who prefer a magwell grip (these cuts also lighten the lower). The magwell opening is flared.
V7 could resist doing what V7 does by making this lower just a touch lighter. You a lightening cut on the grip tang. The lower weighs 8 ounces overall which is .5-.7 ounces less than a typical GI lower. That isn’t much of a difference but it is something. V7 has stated that they have plans for an even lighter lower to be released around Christmas time of this year.
Check out the new V Seven Weapons AR-15 GI Lower. It is currently available at special introductory pricing.
Sneak Peek: Circle 10 AK Folding Stock Adapter
Circle 10 AK will be releasing a new folding stock adapter soon that should be plenty interesting to those of us who own AK’s with side folding stock trunnions with the 4.5mm pin (there may be a 5.5mm version available at a later date). The new adapter will allow you to swap out the stock for a collapsible AR-15 style extension that will accept AR style stocks. It will retain the ability to fold though it will not use the latch when folded. The images below shows an early prototype of the adapter while folded. Expect the production units to differ slightly than what is shown.
I recently tried to purchase a similar adapter from an overseas source. The entire experience was a pain in the rear and took forever. When I finally did receive it, it didn’t fit either of my AKs with this style of stock and it the extension was commercial diameter so I didn’t have a stock that would fit. It will be nice to have an adapter like this available from a domestic source.
Stay tuned for release details.
UW Gear Mini Swamp Fox
UW Gear posted some updated pictures of their Mini Swamp Fox Rig. The new images are the best look we have had yet at this rig.
The Mini Swamp Fox is a non-catalog item that UW Gear is offering on a trial basis. It is a compact version of their split front chest rig design that uses their new double magazine pouch design to achieve the same magazine count as the original Swamp Fox 4 Rig with a much smaller footprint. If you want to put your grubby mitts on one of these, you need to contact UW Gear directly or order a regular Swamp Fox 4 and mention that you want the Mini version in your order notes.
