I love it when Wilson Combat comes out with a new product. You can buy immediately with confidence based on their flawless track record and the other awesome products they make. WC just introduced a new version of their Accu-Rizer Scope Mount, this time designed for the Aimpoint T-1 and H-1 micro red dot optics. From personal experience I can tell you the Accu-Rizer line of scope mounts are awesome. The Quick Detach Triangle makes install/removal super easy and the fit and finish is second to none. If you’re in the market for a Quick Detach mount for your Micro Optic you might want to check this one out. Pics and details below. Purchase the Accu-Rizer Quick Detach T-1 Mount at WilsonCombat.com.
Our exclusive Accu-Rizer Aimpoint Micro (T-1/H-1) mount is machined from Aluminum bar stock and hard-anodized to withstand years of service on your tactical AR type rifle.
- Quick Detach Triangle Screw for Easy Attachment/Detachment in the Field
- Spring Loaded Steel Locking Plate Ensure Repeatable Accuracy
- 1.4” height over bore for absolute co-witness with AR iron sights

The triangle quick detach screw and spring loaded, steel locking plate with internal nylon bushing allow the Accu-Rizer to be easily removed in the field by hand with a minimal loss of zero and no additional parts or hinges that can fail or require adjustment over time. All these features add up to an extremely versatile mount, crafted with Wilson Combat’s legendary attention to detail.
One of the coolest things I’ve seen lately is watching people use Crowdfunding campaigns to realize their dreams of manufacturing a product and having it be a success. Crowdfunding is the use of a website to take pre-orders at a discounted price on the new product which helps the designer afford the initial cost of manufacturing the product. We were excited to help the iOCover become a success on KickStarter. They have now been taken over by Tango Down and are flying off shelves as fast as they can stock them. The Sharps Bro’s Hellbreaker AR15 lower is another success story. The latest potential success story is that of the Saffle Industries SI-RIP which is a carbine length Quad Rail with an integrated Bipod.
The Saffle Industries SI-RIP was designed to look like a standard Carbine Length Drop-In Quad Rail while housing a fully adjustable compact bipod. The legs of the SI-RIP’s bipod store inside the quad rail until needed at which time the user unlocks the system, pulls the legs out and locks them in place. In the event you find yourself on an uneven surface each leg can be adjusted by a simple twist to untighten, adjust height and twist to tighten it up again. The first SI-RIP will be for the AR-15 with the carbine length forend. As business grows they will expand their product line and will offer the SI-RIP for a wide variety of weapon platforms and sizes including the mid length and rifle length AR15 as well as working on the production for the AK47.
Specs
- 6061 T6 aluminum
- Hard Coat Anodizing (Type III)
- Dimensions: L-6.5xW-2.65xH-2.5
- Bi-pod legs are .38″ thick (and are very durable)
- Weight 1.63lbs
Made in USA (Nevada)
Despite the compact diameter of the bipod legs, they are designed to be very strong. The owner of Saffle Industries said he has actually stood on top of his AR15 with the legs fully extended. I don’t look at the SI-RIP as a solution for Snipers or Designated Marksmen. Instead I see it being used more for those who aren’t going to need a bipod on a daily basis but want to have the ability to set up and make the longer shot if needed at any time. I think of LEO’s like my own brother that carry AR15′s in the trunk of their cruiser. They aren’t going to want a normal bipod on their rifle. Normal bipod’s can get in the way, get caught up on your gear, add a lot of weight and take up valuable rail space on such a short rail that can be better used for items such as lights or grips. With the SI-RIP you can keep your normal accessory setup in place and at a moments notice, deploy a fully functional bipod as seen in the pictures below.
So here’s how you can help. Saffle Industries is using a Crowdfunding campaign to fundm the production cost of their new SI-RIP Quadrail by raising $30,000 in just 30 days. When the SI-RIP comes out it will have a retail price of $199 but right now you can pre-order a SI-RIP through their Crowdfunding campaign on Rockethub.com at a discounted price of $149 for one or $249 for two. You’re probably asking yourself exactly what I asked. ”What happens if they don’t meet their funding goal? Do I get my SI-RIP still or am I out my money?” The cool part is you are still guaranteed to get your SI-RIP. I personally spoke with Jason Saffle about this as I wanted to make sure I did the right thing for my readers. He said they already have everything ready to fill all orders that come in even if they don’t meet their goal. As with all Crowdfunding campaigns, the success all depends on whether or not the potential backers (you) find this to be a product that you would buy. So basically, the success of this project is up to you. There are multiple different levels of funding you can do starting as low as just $5. Every little bit helps and I think there should be enough interest that we as a group can make this another huge success story. You can help fund the Saffle Industries SI-RIP on RocketHub.com.

Palmetto State Armory has been re-stocked with mags. D&H makes great mag including these ones that they make for Palmetto State Armory. The feature a Teflon coating inside and out, an Anti-Tilt Follower and have a Palmetto State Armory stamped base. At the moment you can get a 10 pack of mags for just $120.

I’ve heard similar stories from other people too so they’re obviously working on their shipping reputation. You can purchase some for yourself at PalmettoStateArmory.com
A while back I had the opportunity to shoot some photos of the SLR Rifleworks Intrepid Handguard which is a really awesome handguard. I haven’t had much of a chance to post about their stuff lately but I do know they make some high quality parts that’s for sure. I just saw on Facebook that they have some of their forged SLR-15 lowers in-stock. I’m not sure why but I’ve always really liked the looks of the SLR-15 lower. I think it has something to do with the SLR roll mark on the magwell (kind of reminds me of text you’d see on a sports car or something) and the fact that they machine them right there in house instead of farming them out. Anyways, these are in-stock and ready to ship so get on them now. Just $149 at SLRRifleworks.com Don’t forget to check out SLR Rifleworks on Facebook too.
