SHOT Show 2016 Press Releases

<< < (2/2)

GunLink_SHOT_16:
XS Sights has released a number of new products recently and they will be on display at SHOT Show 2016, each of which is available directly from XS Sights and Brownells.


The XS® Bore Guide is designed to keep the cleaning rod centered in the receiver for the DPMS® GII, as well as AR-15’s chambered in calibers ranging from 5.56 to .30 cal. When taking care of a firearm, it’s important to use a bore guide in order to protect the bore and keep any cleaning solution away from the trigger mechanism. This practice will also help preserve the accuracy of the firearm.
 
“This is the first bore guide to hit the market that is compatible with the DPMS GII,” said Bo Wallace, technical expert for XS Sight Systems. “As shooters, we know that clean rifles shoot better and there wasn’t a bore guide for the GII and other rifles chambered in .300 Blackout/Whisper.”



XS has also announced the release of Tritium Express Big Dot® and Standard Dot® sight sets for the new Glock® 43.

These Express sights offer the same reliable sighting solution XS® Sights’ customers have come to depend on. Made in Texas from 1114 stress-proof American steel night sight tritium inserts, both Express Big Dot® and Standard Dot® sets are fast-acquisition, defensive-minded sights that excel in any lighting condition. XS® is the ideal upgrade for your home defense, self-defense and conceal carry Glock® 43.



In addition to new G43 sights, XS also has new 1911 Novak Suppressor Height Express Sights. These are made for fast sight acquisition in all light conditions, feature a low profile, and a snag-free design that can be easily installed.

“The XS Express sights have been the flagship product for us,” said Tanya Gorin, Commercial Sales Manager for XS Sight Systems. “These new sights bring the same Express System advantages, but are designed specifically to accommodate a suppressor.” “The 1911 Novak Suppressor Height Sights allow shooters to raise the sight line over a suppressor for an unobstructed view of the target.” Sight sets available in Big Dot® or Standard Dot® front, paired with tritium or non-tritium white stripe rear.

Rounding out the new lineup from XS is the the Anti-Walk Pin, made specifically for the 12ga. Remington® VERSA MAX®, but also fitting the Benelli® M1, M2 and Super Black Eagle 12.
 
A regular factory trigger-group pin is retained by a small detent spring. This spring can fail under recoil, or can easily be lost during regular maintenance or modifications. The XS® Anti-Walk Pin is a headed pin retained by a 6-32, pan-head screw, acting as a mechanical lock to keep the pin in place. Precision machined in Texas, the 4140/42 steel is then heat treated, and receives a black-oxide coating for corrosion protection.
 
“Keeping your guns running reliably is a big key to performing well in competitive shooting,” says XS® Sight Systems Production Manager, Monte Long. “After seeing several trigger plate detent springs break in VERSA MAX®  shotguns, we designed the XS® Anti-Walk trigger pin as a quick, easy and economical upgrade that will prevent the issue before it can happen.”

LMT Defense Announces MARS-L Fully Ambidextrous Rifle Platform

LMT Defense is excited to announce they are releasing the Modular Ambidextrous Rifle System – Light (MARS-L), the most modern ambidextrous M4 ever.  The MARS-L platform was designed in response to a foreign military requirement to field a fully ambidextrous weapon system with complete symmetry and commonality of controls so that users could manipulate the weapon from either side in the same fashion.  This weapon now proudly serves the New Zealand Defence Force.  The MARS-L can first been seen at the 2016 NSSF SHOT Show in booth #20249 and is expected to start shipping at the end of the first quarter of 2016.

The weapon is fully ambidextrous with LMT Defense designed and manufactured: Ambi-Safety Selector Switch; Ambi-Magazine Release Button; Ambi-Bolt Catch/Release Paddle; and Ambi-Charging Handle. All have been tested and vetted by both military and law enforcement agencies.  The ambidextrous features allow an operator to perform more operations from either hand including catching the bolt with the right index finger so as not to remove the hand from the grip.  To achieve this, the new lower forging design includes the bumps for the Ambi-Bolt Catch/Release Paddle, Ambi- Magazine Release Button and Fence Well. The lower forging also includes a flared magazine well that assists the operator in locating the magazine during insertion.

The modular weapon design is available in Semi-Auto (LS) or Select Fire (LA) models with 14.5”, 16”, 18” and 20” barrel options and can be fitted with the CQB® upper to accommodate a 10.5” barrel. The weapon also includes eight QD locations - five on the front rail, one in the end plate of the lower receiver and two on the stock. The weapon is “lightweight” in that it is designed for smaller rifle calibers: 5.56mm, .300 Blackout, .204Ruger, and 6.8 SPCI.

Finally, the MARS-L utilizes LMT Defense’s monolithic upper receiver to ensure the straightest and strongest rail in the industry. The one piece aluminum forging also allows for the longest barrel extension in the industry which contributes to the greatest weapon accuracy on a production scale. 

The CQB16-MARS will retail for $2,347.90.
