AERO Precision just released their much anticipated Ultralight Scope Mount. The idea was to offer an affordable and lightweight scope mount that was still very strong and would meet the quality standards that AERO Precision is known for. The new scope mount is a one-piece construction made from 6061-T6 aluminum. The one-piece construction allows the user to remove and re-install their scope with little to no loss of zero.

Another nice feature of the new Ultralight Scope Mount is the cross-slot keyway (pictured below) which is part of the mounting system on the bottom of the mount itself. Instead of just running a set of screws across the recoil slots this mount has blocks machined along the bottom that fit into the recoil slots on the top of your receiver. These not only help keep the mount right where it should be instead of moving around during recoil but also protects your upper receiver from the mounting screws.

The AERO Precision Ultralight Scope Mount is currently available with 1″ scope rings and the 30mm scope ring model will be available within the next 1-2 weeks. The best part is that this awesome mount will only run you $85 which is a steal in comparison to many other quality scope mounts on the market. Purchase yours at AEROPrecision.com.

Now Shipping!! CNC Machined QD End Plate from IWC

Posted on June 12th, 2013 by ar15news

Last month we gave you guys a sneak peek at the all new QD End Plate from Impact Weapons Components. At the time we weren’t exactly sure when they would be available for purchase but I just received an email from the owner, Earl, that says they today is the day. QD End Plates are very popular, especially with users of single point slings, as it keeps the rifle slung a bit higher than a QD mount on the buttstock of the gun.  It is also much more low profile than many buffer tube add-ons. Despite being a very high quality component completely CNC Machined from one piece of steel, the IWC QD End Plate will retail at just $18.95 a piece.  You can use the code “AR15NEWS” at checkout to save an additional 5% off of the already affordable price.  If you’re piecing together a new build or just want an inexpensive upgrade, this is a great option to check out.  Purchase yours at ImpactWeaponsComponents.com

NEW!! Tactical Link PRM (Picatinny Rail Mount) Gen 2

Posted on June 10th, 2013 by ar15news

Tactical Link has recently released a sneak peek of their new PRM (Picatinny Rail Mount) Gen 2.  The PRM is a very robust Sling Mount that attaches to any 1913 picatinny rail surface.  The original (Gen 1) PRM was/is pretty awesome but as with many great products, there’s still some room for improvement.  The new PRM Gen 2 has an impact resistant highly reinforced polymer body with stainless steel connection and a threaded aluminum rail grabber.  The new design will be more low profile and lightweight without sacrificing the strength of the part.

The new PRM Gen2 will be available in Black, Flat Dark Earth, OD Green, Foliage Green, Patriot Brown, Burnt Bronze, RAL8000, Titanium, Zombie Green, and Pink.  While the PRM Gen2 is an upgrade it is expected to be comparably priced to the Gen1.  The PRM Gen2′s are currently in production and should be available for purchase by sometime next month.

Tactical Link has made a great reputation for themselves of making some of the toughest, over engineered gear you’ll find out there.  I’ve personally been using their parts for a few years now and now choose their products over some of the bigger brand names because they’re simply better.  They may not have as big of an advertising budget but they sure know how to build high quality products.  

You should definitely take a look at the rest of the awesome products over at TacticalLink.com.  They make some awesome slings and one of my personal favorites, the EBAL (Enhanced Battery Assist Lever).

So far, Handguards with the KeyMod attachment system have really caught on and tons of people have been buying them such as the Noveske NSR, Fortis REV, Seekins MCSR, etc.   The only issue is that there is still very few accessory mounts for them.  Most of what you can find are just small 1913 picatinny sections which doesn’t really make sense since that is what KeyMod is supposed to eliminate.  Finally, one of my favorite manufacturers, Impact Weapons Components has stepped in to fill the void.  Their first offering is the IWC KeyMod QD RL Sling Mount.  This is an extremely low profile, lightweight, rotation limited QD sling mount.  I know you’re thinking “Well, most rails already come with a sling mount”.  While some do, the most popular KeyMod rail is the Noveske NSR which does not feature a built in QD mount.  Even on ones that do have built in mounts you still may want to adjust where on the rail your sling attaches and this allows you to do that.  As with all IWC components, the KeyMod QD RL Sling Mount is made from start to finish in Timnath, Co and comes with a 100% LIFETIME WARRANTY.  You can simply return it anytime for a full refund including your shipping charges….but you won’t want to do that.  Just a way to know you can buy from them with confidence.  The IWC KeyMod QD RL Sling Mount is just $17 but you can save an additional 5% with the discount code “AR15NEWS”.  Purchase the KeyMod QD RL Sling Mount at ImpactWeaponsComponents.com.
