NEW!! MEGA Arms MATEN *TUBULAR* Billet Monolithic Upper

Posted on February 21st, 2012 by ar15news

The much anticipated MEGA Arms MATEN (.308) Tubular Monolithic upper receiver is finally here!  Many MATEN owners have been asking for a lightweight Tubular option to their already extremely popular Monolithic Quadrail upper and of course MEGA listened.  The new 12″ lightweight Tubular design features a true monolithic 12 o’clock 1913 Picatinny rail while the remaining area has been machined to a smooth round surface.  It’s also modular in the fact that you can add small 1913 rail sections the the handguard for mounting accessories if needed.   Continue reading “NEW!!

NEW!! OTG Concepts AR-15 3X Mag Carrier

Posted on February 20th, 2012 by ar15news

Rob from Off The Grid Concepts just emailed me a pic of their new 3X Mag Carrier for the AR-15 and it looks pretty sweet.  The 3X Mag Carrier was designed to be mounted to the front of an SKD Pig Plate Carrier but will also work with any similar Plate Carrier that offers at least 8 Molle panels on the front.  It’s mounted securely in place using Malice Clips and Shock Cord which will help it stay flush with the Plate Carrier and out of your way during use.  If you’re familiar with OTG Concepts you’ll already know that they make some pretty impressive Kydex products and I’m sure this new 3X Mag Carrier will be just as nice.  Check out the details and pic below.  Continue reading “NEW!!

New!! Battle Arms Development CASS-SA & CASS-SA-ST

Posted on February 19th, 2012 by ar15news

Battle Arms Development Logo 2The NEW Battle Arms Development CASS-SA (Combat Ambi Safety Selector Semi Auto) and CASS-SA-ST (Short Throw) are finally here.  The CASS-SA and CASS-SA-ST are both beefed up versions of the very popular BAD-A.S.S. which is widely regarded as the best Ambi Safety Selector on the market. 

These new Safety Selectors are still modular but feature a dovetail design that takes all of the torque away from the assembly screws that hold the levers in place.  This means there is an even lower possibility of the screws coming loose during use.  However, with the new dovetail design, if the screw does come out the lever will stay in place and not just fall off.  The CASS-SA uses the standard 90 degree “Safe” and “Fire” designations while the CASS-SA-ST is a Short Throw selector that is designed to be used in lower receivers that have been machined with a the “Safe” and “Fire” designations in the correct locations.  If you’re are serious about having only the best parts for your battle rifle you need one of these!  Check out the details and pics below!  Continue reading “New!!

Posted on February 18th, 2012 by ar15news

 JTECH Gear just announced a few new items to their already extensive list of Tactical Gear.  These new products are fully licensed by the United States Marine Corps and include a really nicely designed Plate Carrier called the Aegis IV which is constructed using highly durable 1000 Denier Nylon and features not only front and rear Ballistic Plates but also Side Plates as well.  They also released a new USMC Pistol Retention Lanyard and a new USMC MK-24 Sling.  I’ve personally handled some JTECH Gear and I can tell you that they don’t cut any corners.  Quite a few of their products are in use with SWAT and LE teams around the US and abroad.  If you’re looking for some new Tac Gear you should check these guys out.  I’ve included the specs and pics for these items below.  Continue reading “NEW!!

NEW!! MultiCam TAC.U Combat Shirt

Posted on February 17th, 2012 by ar15news

It has been a long time coming since Propper first introduced their coverall camouflage tactical shirt.  Now the TAC.U Combat shirt is available in versatile MultiCam pattern.  The popular design will still feature durable Battle Rip Sleeves and a lightweight 60% cotton and 40% polyester torso.  This material provides for a comfortable wear with moisture wicking in hot weather or during intense activity.   

The MultiCam camouflage print on the torso allows for you to wear the combat shirt on its own for full concealment, but functions perfectly in combination armor carriers, rigs, and other kit worn in tandem. With the growing acceptance of MultiCam in the law enforcement, military, and tactical community at large, we are impressed with the end product Propper is offering.   Continue reading “NEW!!

NEW!! Noveske NSR Handguard – Coming Soon

Posted on February 12th, 2012 by ar15news

We’ve had so many people asking about the new Noveske NSR Handguard but didn’t have a whole ton of information to give you guys.  The only person that I know who has had any real experience with it so far is Stickman so I figured I would at least give you what information I could find online and share some of Stickman’s photos to drool over.  :)   The Noveske NSR Handguard is going to be a game changer.  Its another step in the direction of eliminating the dependance on 1913 picatiny rails which will make adding/removing accessories quick and easy.  Not to mention drastically reducing not only the weight of the handguard itself but also reducing its size.  I’m really excited to see the new NSR Accessories that will be coming out soon and I’ll be sure to share them with you when that happens.  Until then, you’ll just have to check out the information from Noveske below as well as some pics from Stick.  Check it out!   Continue reading “NEW!!

NEW Battle Arms Development products in the works for 2012!!

Posted on February 10th, 2012 by ar15news

Battle Arms Development Logo 2Battle Arms Development is definitely going to be one of the AR-15 Accessory manufacturers to watch in 2012.  They will not only have quite a few brand new products to announce this year but they will also be upgrading some of their current offerings as well.  Much of this can be attributed to a $500,000 investment into what they are referring to as their “Secret Weapon”.  I asked George (President of BAD) if he could expound on what items may be available this year (I’ve heard rumblings about a BAD LPK for the last year).  Read below to see George’s resonse and a video of BAD’s new “Secret Weapon” in action.   Continue reading “NEW Battle Arms Development products in the works for 2012!!” »

2 NEW!! Nikon P-223 BDC AR-15 Rifle Scopes UNDER $200

Posted on February 8th, 2012 by ar15news

More and more we’ve been getting the question “Where can I find a good quality scope for my AR-15 without breaking the bank?”.  That’s not always an easy answer but my first recommendation is always “Check out Nikon.  They make great affordable glass!”.  Well apparently Nikon wants to make sure that even more AR-15 owners can afford their awesome scopes and have come out with two new scopes designed with the .223/5.56 round in mind that will retail for less than $200.  The P-223 3-9×40 is outfitted with their BCD 600 reticle while the P-223 3×32 is features their BDC Carbine Reticle.  Both are also equipped with another nice upgrade over your conventional inexpensive scope which is the Tactical-style Zero Reset Turrets.  The “BANG” for your buck on these are going to be tough to beat.  Check out the pics and specs below!  Continue reading “2 NEW!! Nikon P-223 BDC AR-15 Rifle Scopes UNDER $200” »

NEW!! ALG Defense QMS & ACT Triggers – Tuned by Geissele

Posted on February 2nd, 2012 by ar15news

Check out this very affordable new trigger line from ALG Defense.  These triggers are all tuned by Geissele Automatics  so you know they’re good to go.  If you’ve ever wanted to upgrade your duty weapon but couldn’t because of departmental policies against custom or aftermarket parts, now’s your chance as these are simply finely tuned Mil-Spec triggers.  This would also be a nice upgrade for any non LE/MIL AR owner who is looking to swap out the stock trigger on a budget of less than $100.    Continue reading “NEW!!

NEW!! TacStrike GOFO Target System

Posted on February 2nd, 2012 by ar15news

TacStrike recently released their new ultra portable GOFO Steel Target System which looks to be another winner in their impressive lineup of Steel Targets and Target Carriers.  I always like to keep my eye  on the new stuff coming out from TacStrike.  It seems like they are releasing another new and innovative target system every month or so…..because they are!

The name GOFO (Grasp of the Freaking Obvious) comes from just trying to un-complicate the target.  Many times when it comes to developing a new product, in our mind we have this great idea but we end up adding more and more complicated pieces, levers, arms, stakes, etc. until it becomes a huge mess.  This is the exact opposite for the GOFO.  Check out the pics and details on their latest creation below.   Continue reading “NEW!! TacStrike GOFO Target System” »
