Magpul officially released the MS4 sling and 10 Round PMAGs today. The MS4 Sling appears to be a nice tweak over the MS3 and Ms3-QD. Magpul has now gone completely QD, even using QDs when transitioning the sling from Single Point to Two Point. As with all Magpul slings I’m sure the MS4 will be a nice sling. The 10 Round PMAG is something that has really drawn a lot of criticism from people thinking that Magpul is “giving in” or catering to states that have legislation against STANDARD capacity AR15 magazines. That is obviously not the case as Magpul has been working on them for quite some time. They are looking at it as more of a Low Profile Magazine. Check out the details and pics below.

Filling the same mission requirement as the standard MS3 Sling, the MS4 can quickly switch between one-point and two-point configuration. The MS4 maintains webbing material construction and specifications identical to that of the standard MS3, but features a melonite-finished steel D-ring and two heavy-duty push-button QD sling swivels rather than the Magpul Paraclips™. This modification allows compatibility with QD sling cups commonly found on lower receivers, receiver end plates, buttstocks, and many low-profile forward QD Sling mounts, including the Magpul RSA-QD.
After several years stuck in development while we worked on the standard-capacity GEN M3 magazine technology, the PMAG 10 GEN M3 is finally shipping. The PMAG 10 GEN M3 is a 10-round 5.56×45 NATO (.223 Remington) polymer magazine for AR15/M4 compatible weapons. Incorporating new material technology and manufacturing processes for enhanced strength, durability, and reliability, the PMAG 10 provides next-generation performance for those needing lower profile magazines.
I’ll be the first to admit I’ve not had a lot of experience with any LaRue Tactical products but I’m totally jealous of those who have. I know quite a few guys who own OBR’s and PredatAR’s and they absolutely love them. I’ll buy a LaRue rifle one of these days but for now lets talk about the new LaRue Tactical OSS or Optimized Sniper Sling. I think this sling is pretty slick. It addresses longer range shooting technique called “Bipod Loading” where you push the legs of your bipod up against a stationary object and push your shoulder into the buttstock thus locking the rifle into place. This is a technique I personally try to use whenever I shoot longer range but had no idea it was called “Bipod Loading”. The issue is that snipers or anyone that may be using their rifle in the prone can find themselves in a position without any way of loading the bipod. They end up either trying to dig the legs into the ground or holding the bipod legs with their support hand. This is why the OSS was designed. Read the information below to see how the LaRue Tactical OSS can help give you a stable shooting platform in any situation.
