EFFIN Hammerhead Barricade Support Device

We went a different route this time and didn't tell anyone what we were working on before it came out...

We would like to introduce our first machined weapon part.




There is a short video on our product page here:

EDIT: forgot to mention the weight is 7 Oz / Machined from Aircraft Grade Billet Aluminum

Im going to Colorado this week for a few shooting events, I'd like to try this out just for the hell of it. I'll stop by the shop sometime this week as Im on leave. Does it mount to the bayo lug or a rail?

It's definately not on the bayo lug in that picture, so probably rail from my best guess.

And after you're done shooting you can tenderize your steak with it.

Somehow I completely missed the pic of how it mounted haha, good catch.

hahah..very innovative! I can see this becoming very popular.

180 it and you've got a hand stop that won't quit

Sorry but I see this as just another gimmick like the magwell grip that no one really needs.

Had some more ideas last night after I posted, which is funny because I really don't particularly like this. ;p But can see how some guys shooting certain ways really would.

You could really take a nice bit of weight off this (At a SWAG I'd say 20-25%) by running a 1/2" end mill vertically through the head part or alternately making three drilled holes through it (hell of a lot cheaper buying/sharpening drills I suppose) and possibly one through the center of the body without weakening it much structurally and still keeping most of the textured area. I was also thinking about some cop trying to watch over a barricaded shooter situation for hours on end and what a pain in the ass that might be and thought it might be nice to add a 1/4"-3/8" lip at the top front edge so it would "rest" or catch a window sill for example and not actually have to be "held into it" to be ready at a moments notice for someone running out. Still keeps the original function but adds a sort of "rest" feature to it. Good luck with your project.

Depending on how this one goes maybe will eventually make a Version 2 or something in the future. The client this was originally made for gave us a requirement of 5000 lb of direct pressure...

The Lip Idea is awesome and would be a great addition! Thanks.

I get the concept, but half a pound on the end of a rail for something that won't see much use, and the cost on top of that... Maybe if it was polymer with a replaceable bolt-on aluminum or polymer knurled face, and cheap, I could see it's place in the market.
