Real Avid Bore-Max Speed Clean System

Real Avid, the leader in DIY for Guns®, presents the Bore-Max Speed Clean System, a line of brushes, jags and patches innovatively designed as a significantly faster way to clean a bore with less effort. With the Speed Jag and Speed Jag Patch, expect the same results as pushing four or more traditional square patches in only one pass through the bore.

Bore-Max™ Speed Brushes™ – 2X More Crud Scrubbed

With twice the bristle density of standard brushes, Bore-Max Speed Brushes delivers over 2X the scrubbing power to the bore with each pass. The stiff and durable nickel-plated phosphor bronze bristles resist chemical breakdown in the bore to extend the life of the brush.

“In order to achieve maximize effectiveness, we found there needed to be an optimal balance between bristle density and bristle flexibility. In our testing, we recognized very quickly that having too few bristles was a waste of time and too many wouldn’t provide enough flexibility to navigate the lands and grooves of the bore,” commented Howard Tripp, Chief Innovation Officer. The bristle configuration of the Bore-Max Speed Brush is the result of finding that sweet spot, achieving maximum scrubbing density while retaining enough flexibility to effectively reach down into the lands and grooves, removing more carbon with each pass of the brush and getting maximum results faster.

In regard to nickel-plating, Tripp said, “Phosphor bronze has proven to be an ideal bristle material, with the exception of reacting poorly to bore-solvent. Nickel Electroplating these brushes solved that problem and increased their useful longevity as well.” Read more

SIG SAUER Introduces the SLX and SLH Series of Suppressors

NEWINGTON, N.H. – Born out of the current military requirements to deliver cutting-edge performance, SIG SAUER is proud to introduce the SLX and SLH series of suppressors. The advancement of the SLX and SLH series of suppressors was realized through the wholesale transition of the SIG SAUER product line to Direct Metal Laser Sintering (DMLS) resulting in the most innovative suppressor technology to date – the next generation of suppressors has arrived.’

“The commercial launch of the SLX and SLH suppressors has been highly anticipated due to the fact that these are the suppressors we developed exclusively for our Next Generation Squad Weapons program submission,” said Tom Taylor, Chief Marketing Officer and Executive Vice President, Commercial Sales, SIG SAUER, Inc. “The DMLS manufacturing process of the SLX and SLH suppressors eliminates the drawbacks of welded baffles that historically presents design limitations for sound, flash, and the reduction of toxic fumes. Alternatively, the SLX and SLH suppressors are designed to not only withstand the rigors of the battlefield through its innovative monolithic design, but they are each optimized to dramatically reduce harmful toxic fumes and sound because of patented design features that can only be achieved through the non-traditional manufacturing processes.” Read more

Peak 44 Introduces Blacktooth: The Lightest Production Carbon Fiber Rifle Stock

Sheridan, Wyo. – Introducing Peak 44™. New to the outdoor accessories market, Peak 44 is focused on delivering premium ultra lightweight products for backcountry hunters and adventurers. Their first offering to hit the market is the Blacktooth™ carbon fiber stock – the lightest production carbon fiber stock in the industry.

Starting at under 20 ounces, the Blacktooth is packed with cutting-edge features and materials, combining extreme light weight with recoil mitigation and one of the most stable bedding platforms ever devised for a stock this light.

To provide the benefits of an aluminum bedding block but without the bulk and weight, Peak 44 developed the patent-pending Rock Solid Carbon Link™ which, as the name implies, links the two side of the stock together and works in conjunction with a set of aluminum pillars, the RSCL engages the recoil lug of the action and allows Peak 44 to employ lighter weight materials than similar stocks, while having an incredibly stiff and stable platform into which rifles can be bedded. By orienting the fibers along the axis of their greatest strength, the RSCL is stronger than an aluminum bedding block while being a fraction of the weight. Read more

Weatherby Announces Backcountry 2.0 Family of Rifles

Following on the heels of the highly successful Weatherby® Mark V® Backcountry™ and Backcountry Ti, the next generation of this rifle family will hit dealer shelves in fall 2021. The updated Backcountry 2.0 and the all new Backcountry 2.0 Carbon models are equipped with a brand new carbon fiber stock that is the lightest in the industry. The Backcountry 2.0 Carbon adds a BSF® tensioned carbon fiber barrel as well as a hotter chambering previously not available in the Backcountry, the 30-378 WBY MAG — the fastest and flattest-shooting production .308 caliber cartridge.

An ultra-lightweight big game rifle, the Backcountry 2.0 Ti starts at just 4.7 lbs and much of the credit is owed to the new Blacktooth™ carbon fiber stock from Peak 44™, the lightest version of which tips the scales at under 20 ounces. This new Blacktooth stock features the Rock Solid Carbon Link™ bedding system which engages the recoil lug and evenly distributes recoil throughout the stock without the weight of a traditional aluminum bedding block, making the overall stock both lighter and stiffer.

Weights for all models depend on chambering:

Backcountry 2.0 – 5.3 lbs (308 Win) to 6.2 lbs (257 WBY MAG)

Backcountry 2.0 Ti – 4.7 lbs (308 Win) to 5.6 lbs (257 WBY MAG)

HIPERFIRE’s HIPERCOMP Next Generation Recoil Compensators

HIPERFIRE® Updates Its HIPERCOMP® Recoil Muzzle Compensators For Peak Performance. HIPERFIRE’s 1st gen recoil compensators matched the performance of the best compensators money could buy for the AR15 in both .223/5.56 rifle and 9mm PCC configurations. These were known as HIPERCOMP 556C, 556CQ, and 9mm. But, customers clamored for that recoil reduction performance at a more attractive price.

HIPERFIRE went to work. We reduced not only the size but also the pricing. First, the 5.56 and 9mm comps had to have the same form factor as the MIL Birdcage flash hider. Second, they all had to exceed the recoil reduction performance of the best-reviewed compensators that we could find and test.

These goals required an optimal design that maximized propellant gas effects. The search for an optimal design usually entails hardware design iterations of trial and error that can be very expensive and time-consuming. HIPERFIRER took a different approach using Fluent computational fluid dynamics software from ANSYS to iterate faster and lower development costs.

The computer simulation environment quickly produced good results. Our new comps are the HIPERCOMP 556 and 9mm Next Gen. And, we added a third, the HIPERCOMP 762 Next Gen for 7.62 NATO AR10 and 7.62 Russian AK rifles. No other recoil compensators perform better at reducing recoil. Visit www.hiperfire.com for more information. In the ensuing weeks, we will publish data demonstrating HIPERCOMP’s effectiveness. Read more
