The Multi-Mount can also be mounted anywhere on the rail.  If you were to mount it on the strong side of your weapon you would have the ability to use all 3 mounting spots to fine tune how your weapon hangs.  I personally like the idea of using it on the bottom of the rail so that it could double as a handstop too. 

Definitely check this out the next time you’re in the market for a new sling mount.  Right now they are on sale for just $24.95 at DamageUSA.com!

One of my favorite light mounts is the HSP THORNTAIL Adaptive Light Mount which is made by Impact Weapons Components.  The THORNTAIL extends the light out beyond the end of the rail allowing for more realestate for your hands.  The first version uses different size rings to accommodate different flashlights.  Haley Strategic Partners and Impact Weapons Components have just released a picture of their newest version which is designed to be used with the SureFire Millennium series of Weapon Lights. 

The HSP THORNTAIL Adaptive Offset Light Mount is designed to be used with Millenium M951, M952, M961, M962 & M620 Weaponlights.  Keep your eye on ImpactWeaponsComponents.com for availability and pricing!

Loki Weapon Systems has made a great name for themselves making high end, lightweight AR15′s.  Most of their AR’s have tubular because quad rails are usually bulky, rough to handle and heavy.  That was until they tried the Centurion Arms 12″ C4 rail.  Erik Davis, CEO of LWS told me, “It is the first Quad Rail only model for us. I haven’t been a fan of quad rails till I tried Centurion.”  I think this is a great pairing for Loki Weapon Systems….a great Rifle with a great Rail System.  The new LWS Centurion AR15 Forged Rifle will also come a tuned single stage trigger at no extra charge.  And lets not forget the LWS Lifetime Warranty as well.  Check out the details and pics below!  

**Photos show optional equipment**

The Centurion M4 Rifle features the C4 rifle-length Quad Rail handguard, your choice of MOE, EMOD, or CTR collapsible stock, and MOE or Ergo pistol grip. Ther are several more options including finish, barrel length and compensators.

The LOKI Centurion rifle is our newest offering and the first rifle to be offered with a full quad rail handguard. Most quad rails are heavy and sharp edged making for an uncomfortable rifle. The Centurion C4 Rail System eliminates these issues. The handguard weighs only 12.9oz. The C4 has a small internal diameter and is media tumbled to offer a very comfortable grip.

The Centurion uses mil-spec forged receivers for maximum compatibility. The 16-inch Barrel is nitride treated for accuracy and longevity. The FA rated bolt carrier group and mid length gas system offer longer lock up time and increased reliability.Th optional NiB-X BCG (nickel boron) offers increased durability and maintenance ease.

LOKI Weapon Systems provides a limited lifetime warranty for all LWS rifles.

A friend of mine sent me the following press release and I definitely wanted to share it with you guys.  SIONICS Weapon Systems is a newer AR-15 rifle manufacturer that has begun to make a name for itself in the Law Enforcement arena in Arizona.  I had a look at they’re website store and they’ve got some really good looking products and pricing.  They offer Rifles, Stripped Upper/Lower sets, Complete Uppers and Complete Assembled Lowers.  With so many retailers being sold out of parts, its always nice to find another avenue for purchasing high quality parts and rifles.  Check out the press release and pics below!

ARIZONA LAW ENFORCEMENT HAS NEW CHOICE IN FIREARMS

Borderland agencies now have a home grown alternative for individual rifles and carbines

Recently the Buckeye, AZ Police Department evaluated several different manufacturers’ AR15 rifles for a department purchase; they chose SIONICS. While not a name that everyone knows, SIONICS is a name that has recently been making in-roads with LE agencies, officers, and people that need to carry a firearm on the job.  When asked “why SIONICS”, the most common answer is: the reliability.

SIONICS Weapon Systems started as one man’s labor of love only two short years ago, almost immediately the company started to grow and in the last part of 2011 moved into a new manufacturing facility and brought in new management and production staff – Bryan Smeltzer, the company’s master gunsmith, said that “SIONICS has always been about no-nonsense quality, and with the recent model line… we have defined that perfectly.”  He went on to say that “SIONICS focuses on the core of the rifle, the things that make it function reliably.”  “Lots of people try to figure out how to make the gun different, we just work on making it better” Smeltzer said.

SIONICS Director of Operations, K.L. Davis told us “it’s kind of tough in a way… we focus on what’s inside, the parts that matter to how the gun runs” – picking up one of the their Patrol Model rifles he added – “we don’t do a lot of glitzy stuff on the outside, so to just look at the rifle you can’t see what makes it tick… to do that, you’ve got to shoulder it and get some trigger time.”  He went on to tell us that their mantra is “The Barrel, The Bolt and The Trigger… we give you the best combination of those parts that can be found on a production gun.”  When asked for more detail on those parts, Davis told us that SIONICS either makes or has made to their specifications the best parts that they can find for the heart of the rifle, among some of the things mentioned were a standard after-market trigger, plated bolt carriers and premium barrels.

In addition to the new line of rifles, SIONICS also supports law enforcement agencies with training, maintenance programs, armorer courses, field inspection and professional witness services. SIONICS Weapon Systems is located in Tucson, AZ – for more information about SIONICS products and services, contact sales@sionicsweaponsystems.com or call 520-441-1260.

If you’ve been holding out to buy a new upper from Palmetto State Armory now is the time to buy.  I just happened to be browsing their site and found some awesome deals.  Both deals happen to be on their very popular URG’s (Upper Receiver Group).  The first deal I ran across is for their 16″ M4 CMV Chrome Lined Upper.  The second deal was for a 16″ Midlength Hammer-Forged CMV upper.  Both of these are absolute steals and have me tempted to pick at least one up.  You never know when the next build will start.  Check out the details below.  

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 high pressure tested and 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 to order with US-made parts, and test fired to check gas function.  Does not include bolt carrier group or charging handle.

Purchase from Palmetto State Armory for just $299.95!

Barrel:  A proprietary blend of Hammer forged chrome molly vanadium made by FN that is referred to as “Machine Gun Steel” by virtue of its required use in FN’s M249 and M240 weapons.   The hammer forging process work hardens the steel, making it more durable.  In addition, the chrome process for the bore allows for a lining almost twice as thick as a standard M16 for enhanced durability.  Chambered in 5.56 NATO, with a 1/7 twist, M4 barrel extension, and a Mid-length gas system.   The A2 profile barrel  is Mil-spec phosphate coated, High Pressure tested and Magnetic Particle inspected.  Barrel is finished off with an F-marked front sight post with sling swivel, standard handguards and an A2 flash hider.
