I have a very good friend in the SOCOM community that did the testing and eval for the SCAR, he mentioned to me once that the standard SCAR-H was getting 8MOA at 800yrds and he seen the SSR shooting 5MOA at 1000.

dude, i hope you mean 'inches' instead of 'MOA'. :eek:

P522 pistol?

Looks like a .22lr version of the 556 pistol. Neato!

I really like that one picture with the barrel progression and cutaway



yes sir, DD jumped on the middy kool aid :D



more modular type free float, where you can add rails on the sections you want, instead of lugging around rails all the time. I believe it should prove to be lighter.

interesting...don't particularly care for the look but I'd be interested to know more about it if it has any performance advantage aside from weight over a typical modular rail like the Troy TRX extremes, or even DD's own already-light Lite series...

Are those plastic?

I thought MaTech took over LWRCI awhile back, I could be wrong.

It could be that the equity money invested could also have holdings in Matech...:confused: I believe that it is owned by an investment fund and a principle owner. I believe that to be the facts of the new ownership.

I also find it odd that if Matech was involved, you would think that LWRCI would at least use their sights on their rifles and they don't.

Maybe Darren could clear up anything that I am off on.

A very Troy looking front sight but differ with serration on the back side and side of the front post. Serration on the back side of the post should eliminate any reflection.


Is that really being marketed as a "feature"?

Those are threads on an AK front sight post, and way below where your eye should be looking...It's been on there for 60 years.

Yeah, I like 'em.

I have three things mounted on my 12" rail. A front sight, a light mount, and rail covers.

Full length rails are not really utilized by most shooters...if they can cut down weight and make them friendlier to grab, I'm all for it.

Hey people with the cases.

Since you can decide with things you want to uncover (headphone jack, mute button), does the case come with the camera opening covered as well?

I've been dying to find an iPhone case that covers the camera. I can't have a camera phone at work and even if I remove the camera from the phone, the hole in the case is still there making people think I *do* have a camera.

Poor ACR. When will you ever be ready for us? If Magpul had simply found a production partner we might all have ACRs in our safes. Magpul+Bushy became Magpul+Bushy+Remington... who is next? Maybe by the time it is ready for production it will be the MagpulBushmasterRemingtonColtSaberDPMSMegaSunDevilLMTLWRCPWS ACR.

Still, Remington has really improved the overall look of this rifle (although I fell in love with the original Magpul Masada)

Nice to see ARMS ripping of Magpul with their new plastic BUIS system.
Actually you know what they say. Imitation is the most sincere form of flattery.

I am afraid that ARMS is in decline (IMHO) they are really not innovating. They appear to be copying other manufacturers.

Larue has the mount business wrapped
Daniel has the Rail business wrapped
Magpul has the furniture business wrapped

It is time to innovate again ARMS, "innovate or die" is the war cry of any good business. That is sad since ARMS was the original innovator.

My understanding is that to get dual-sided QD cups, you buy 2 QD cups and use one bolt to hold both on.

they are only one sided, if you have to swap sides, have to unscrew the QD mount and move it on the other side. Doesnt look like you can put two mounts on the same hole.

i see, I guess you can. Cant remember how much thread that bolt has left after installing one QD mount, it would just need a little more for you to put one on the other side. The sucky thing is those mounts cost $14 for a small little thing.

Hope someone has some T&E video clip of this new Troy Claymore Brake. Any feedback would be great.

I tried the Claymore today on 11.5" barrel. I had a FSC556 on before. The FSC556 made the rifle very controllable, but extremely loud.

The Claymore didn’t control the recoil & muzzle rise as well as the FSC556, but muzzle blast & sound were greatly reduced. I fired a rifle with a 16” barrel & A2 Flash suppressor along with it. Both rifles were firing XM193. The Muzzle blast & sound seemed to exactly the same from the shooter’s perspective.

I am thinking of putting a Claymore on a 14.5"... you felt the muzzle flash was less (or no worse,) than FSC556? IE no big fireballs out the front or anything? I live in the great state of NJ where flash suppressors are illegal (along with everything else!) and I need a brake and hopefully one that kills a little bit of the flash. I hear KAC Triple Tap is also decent but it's hard to find and expensive! I thought a Noveske Pig was the answer until I found out it was considered a flash suppressor for some reason, so this seems like it will hopefully fit the bill!

04-29-10, 21:48
I don't understand the mechanics of that "ambi bolt release"... How would you manipulate the bottom left corner of an "L" to get it to release, and also to apply enough pressure to hold the bolt open?

Honestly, if I was going to design one for left handed use (You know... with the business I have making AR-15 parts (kidding)), I'd just extend it down, cut it off the right leg off the center part and checker it, or at least start there.

As long as it didn't obstruct your finger getting inside the Trigger Guard, I think that'd work pretty well.

Also does anyone have any experience with devices like this and the bad with a KAC Ambi-Mag release? Would you have any problem dropping a mag with that configuration?

The other thing that worries me about all of these levers, is that I've seen a broken bolt release, and I know it's from the awkward stress of the lever... that worries me.

I'm a lefty with long guns, and I can't afford an SR-15E3... So here we are.

Thanks for any input.

Sierrahotel83
04-29-10, 23:17
It looks a lot like a copy of the Magpul BAD... if that is the case to lock the bolt to the rear, if you are right handed, you put your trigger finger under the lever and lift and to release you push on the end on the lever.... if you are left handed you can push on the lever at the bottom with your trigger finger and if you are releasing the bolt you just hit the top (ping pong paddle) with you trigger finger... on the BAD at least it adds surface area for you to be able to hit it with your trigger finger... this is just what works for me and my two cents worth.

I can't find one picture online of a cat tail installed on a variable power scope in a combat theatre. Perhaps someone more gifted with search foo will.

My perception is that variable power scopes are the exception, not the rule on issued firearms. Speed is important in combat - so take the shot with what you have, most of which are fixed power if at all.

If you have a variable power, like as not, you have the time. And if you have a variable power set on high in a close combat situation, your sniper rifle is the least of your problems.

I don't see cat tails as field equipment ( literally, where are they? ) but as range competition enhancements.

NSN on any cat tails issued would be good evidence.

I really want one of these, but I got tired of waiting so I ordered an Otter Box for my phone just the other day.

By the time Magpul finally produces more iPhone 3 cases the iPhone 5 will be out.

I got an Otterbox for my iPhone 4 last month and it works fine. Not available in FDE or foliage, though.

I just got all three today in the mail. When I was in London, back in July, I met up with some flashlight collectors. One in particular was a die hard surefire collector like me. After talking he mentioned that he will be getting his hands on a few Magpul iPhone cases.

Well my mate in London said that if I wanted one I could have one. So kachow, I finally got one. and not only did he send me one, he sent all three colors to me for free!!! Oh and it fits my 2G iphone beautifully. my iphone is now tacticool.

Your mate is selling fake Magpul products. I'd like to see them, so if you want to trade for the real thing, shoot me a PM with your shipping address. Just for reference, the only authorized retailer of Magpul products in the UK is Edgar Brothers.

Go compare these to the real ones in the earlier pics in this thread. Look at things like openings, flash (or lack thereof), color, etc.

When a dude from magpul tells you they're fake it's a safe bet they're fake.

They very obviously are fakes.

Here is a real one:

Here is yours

Compare the openings for the Silence switch, etc. Look at the flash on yours. Very obviously not the same.

Plus, NickB, who works for Magpul, is of the same opinion... He should know

Thanks guys.

Looking at the pics, I just learned the one I got is a fake.

I'm more than a little pissed off.... Now I'm wondering if the Pmags, CTR, MIAD, and AFG is a fake as well..... (they all came on an M&P lower with LMT SBR upper).

I don't want to get this thread off topic, but if you send me some photos, I'll tell you. If you are a civilian and got them in Canada, there is a good chance they were either 1) gray-market / illegally imported; or 2) fake / airsoft.

How about an iPhone 4 case? Maybe partner with Otterbox or somebody like that to handle production. If somebody makes a knockoff iPhone 4 case I'll buy it, but I'd rather buy an officially endorsed one.

It's not that Magpul can't make plastic stuff on their own, but I remember waiting and searching high and low to find a Magpul iPhone 3 case after SHOT 2010. Would have been cool.

I think there are too many iphone 3G and 3GS running around. In mean time they may make an iPhone 4 case. Im in the minority with an iPhone 2G.

The SHOT Show list of products that I have says "Summer 10" next to the MS3 as a suggested release date target.

Edit: This list was distributed by Magpul and is probably the source of other sites claiming "Summer '10"

Guys, summer just ended like 4-5 or so days ago. Patience.

I hadn't noticed magpul saying the release date, however several other websites I think were projecting the "summer of 2010" release.

vietboy1st
09-27-10, 10:11
Yeah either Travis or Christ said it will be released by the end of summer 2010. so hopefully in november or latest is December. for sure
Because some website already have them up for sale as Stock arlert.

AFG2 sounds interesting, maybe related to picture in page 7. But waiting until summer for PMAG 30G, damn!

I think here is where people are getting dates from:)

..... and that was never released by Magpul. The internet has taken something yet again and given it a life of its own.

As far as believing things you read on other sites, unless it came from Magpul, I wouldn't believe it. :)

That is in the same font and style as the form I got at SHOT from Magpul [which I have here in front of me now] that lists that exact same information so I could believe, if someone pressed the issue, that that was a copy of a Magpul cheatsheet or something that the booth personnel might have had.

Of course, the form that I got also says:

"Release times fore[sic] new items are estimates. Please contact us as times approach for more specific release dates."

So nothing is definite and were just guesses in the first place.

Winner winner, chicken dinner!

It was never a hard release date, just something folks used as talking points. Simmah down, guys.

the magpul pts already made rail sling attachment. It's pretty good too only $15 bucks. it made out of heavy metal or steel.
i am waiting for tan ms3 sling and Tan RSA.

update. I just checked magpul.com the RSA will come out soon and the MS3 no where to be found but still see the old ms2 sling in the product section :( MS2 : summer 10.... What is going on ? i guess they need to hire more people to produce them.XD
