Whole Boat Load of Centurion Arms CHF Barrels In-Stock

Posted on May 18th, 2013 by ar15news

If you are looking for a new barrel and want one that is made to last, the Centurion Arms CHF barrels are some of the best you’ll find.  I’m boring so I usually spend my Friday evenings after the kids go to bed snooping around a bunch of my favorite retailers websites.  One of the ones I checked out was Weapon Outfitters and was pleasantly surprised to see that they were just freshly resupplied with a bunch of CA barrels.  Right now they have 10.5, 11.5, 12.5″ and 14.7″ barrels in, all carbine length gas systems.  Check em out at WeaponOutfitters.com.

NEW!! Banshee **QD** Rifle Plate Carrier In-Stock and Shipping

Posted on May 6th, 2013 by ar15news

The new Banshee QD plate carrier from Shellback Tactical is now in-stock and shipping in all colors.  The standard Banshee Rifle Plate Carrier is already a huge hit.  The main difference with the new design is the QD (Quick Deployment) function.  Instead of using a more traditional cummerbund that has PALS webbing on the inside allowing the use of side plates, etc. the new cummerbund is a hybrid of sorts that is padded on the inside for comfort, has quick release buckles and features PALS on the outside only.  This is a great option for those who do not need side plate carrying capabilities.  I’ve always felt using the cummerbund was much more comfortable than using just the side qd nylon straps but the cummerbund was velcro which can be noisy and difficult to align.  Now you have the best of both worlds.  One other difference is that on the MultiCam model they will be using MultiCam webbing now too.  Check out the pics and details below.

The BANSHEE QD (Quick Deployment) plate carrier is an advanced professional/operator grade plate carrier that takes the Banshee to another level of comfort and performance. BANSHEE QD is the second version of the Banshee family of plate carriers. Made to accommodate those that do not need a full traditional cummerbund but still want the ability to run front and back rifle plates. Ideal for Law Enforcement, Military, and Sniper operations. This BANSHEE QD plate carrier is Ultra lightweight, low profile, and has great load carrying capacity. Designed for protection, utility, mobility in a compact lightweight design. One major difference with the BANSHEE QD plate carrier is the cummerbund which now is a hybrid type.

The hybrid cummerbund was designed with comfort and mobility in mind, and made with advanced materials. This new cummerbund comes standard in the Banshee QD, runs through the carrier, and is fully adjustable (one size fits most). It is low profile and the interior of the cummerbund is padded and on the exterior has 2 rows of PALS webbing. This cummerbund attaches on both sides to the front of the plate carrier with 2 quick release buckles. Super-fast Don and Doff capabilities, say good bye to the sound of Hook/Loop ripping open. Upgrade and try the Banshee QD You will not be disappointed.

Versatility with several PALS web attachment points covering the front, back and shoulders of the vest
Fully adjustable and padded
Two areas of loop for identifiers
Fits over soft body armor/Uniforms
Wire, antenna or hydration hose guides

SNEAK PEEK!! – Hellbreaker AR-15 Lower

Posted on March 13th, 2013 by ar15news

You guys remember last year when John Sharps came up with idea for the Hellbreaker Lower?  The unique design came from the old P40 Warhawk airplanes that had Shark faces painted on them.  John has had many setbacks since the beginning including having his KickStarter project removed due to their policy against gun parts.  Through all of this John kept pushing and pushing to get himself where he is today.  They just received their first units back from anodizing and they look great.  While its unique design may not be everyone’s style, I think it is really awesome to see someone put in a ton of work and make the American Dream a reality.  The Sharps Bros. Hellbreaker AR-15 lower will be coming soon and I think this is going to be a great success story.  You can reserve one for yourself now SharpsBros.com.  Don’t forget to check out the Sharps Bros. Hellbreaker Facebook page too.

SPECIAL DEAL!! PSA 16″ CMV M4 Upper Receiver

Posted on December 8th, 2012 by ar15news

Palmetto State Armory has been releasing their 25 days of Christmas deals but I haven’t really been feeling them until this one right here.  The reason I like this one has to do with the price, the timing and the promised shipping date.  The price is very competitive with other quality uppers on the market.  At just $299 its going to be hard to beat.  I have a similar upper from PSA and I really like it.  The timing is critical as the PSA Free Shipping deal ends on tomorrow night, so as long as you get your order in today or tomorrow you’ll get FREE SHIPPING.  The last reason is one of the most important as we all know PSA has in the past had some major issues with taking a long time to ship items.  They have in writing said that these uppers will ship within 3 business days from the date of order.  That means if you order this weekend the upper should ship by early to mid next week.  That’s pretty quick!  So to recap, $299.99 with FREE SHIPPING and expedited order processing as long as you buy it this weekend.  Check it out!

Barrel:  16″ Chrome-lined, chrome moly vanadium.  Chambered in 5.56 NATO, with a 1/7 twist, M4 barrel extension, and a carbine-length gas system.   The M4 profile barrel  is magnetic particle inspected and then phosphate coated to mil-specs.  Barrel is finished off with an F-marked front sight post with sling swivel, standard handguards and an A2 flash hider.

Upper:Forged 7075-T6 A3 AR upper is hard coat anodized black for durability. Featuring M4 feedramp cuts, T-marks, but no logo, these upper upper receivers are made for us right here in the USA.

 Each upper is assembled with US-made parts, and test fired to check gas function.  Does not include bolt carrier group or charging handle.

*This upper ships within 3 business days of placing the order

Purchase this upper at PalmettoStateArmory.com.
