There should be a new release coming up pretty soon, we'll go over it here as soon as its made public. Actually, there are a few new items that should be coming out soon. Some of these items will be from manufacturers you've probably heard of, others probably aren't.

Sorry for the secrecy, but at least its a heads up.

I wait in great anticipation.

The Magpul ACS Stock has just been released, thats one of them.

I think there were a lot of people who knew it was coming pretty soon, so they can stop waiting and do their happy dance. I'm using the ACS on my duty weapon, and very happy with it.

Interested! I am going to build my upper by winter and need to start hoarding parts. I always like new and exciting products. Bring the good news Stick!

Nope, but I just had a nice long talk with them about the Fortis/ Bren Ten. :P

For the one I know about I can't even think of a hint that wouldn't give it away. Just be patient, I'm on edge as the rest of you guys. Where's my popcorn?!

Crossing my fingers for a Pmag 20LR release...

ETA: Nevermind. As per Magpul: "The 7.62x51 PMAG 20-LR is still in development with no ETA set at this time..." <----yesterday on Arfcom :(

Is it that BCM came out with a complete rifle?

i think that is one that Grant put together, but i could be wrong.

I hate going to bed when news like this is brewing because it is usually something like a new Noveske/Magpul release, and because of the time difference, I've no real chance of finding out about it in time.

Nice to see that nothing broke overnight, anyway. :)

Let me take a guess. Noveske MPL without the Magpul lower?

I sure hope not. I really want to pick up a N4 Light Low Profile and it seems like I will never get one if they keep pumping out special items.

It wouldn't be a MPL without the Magpul lower.

This week Magpul has released the ACS, the enhanced stock pad, and the EMAG to dealers/ distributors. Its been done quietly, but they are all tricking into the hands of your favorite Magpul vendor.

Stick, from the Magpul brochure you posted, it appears the ACS needs an optional attachment to allow QD button sling swivels. Will Ranier be stocking those?

Thanks!

Please may it be the B.A.D. device in final version and Magpul approved mode......

No idea if they will or not, especially as the QD mounts aren't released yet. My guess would be that they will, as will most other Magpul dealers.

Maybe they left them off so people would use the ASAP plate instead of the QD... that's what I'm going to do.

My thought is that its not worth including a part that most shooters are not going to use. You are raising the price on an item for no real reason.

Completely agreed. If this was a UBR or something where you COULDN'T use an ASAP, maybe it'd be a bad break for consumers.

My ACS is sitting at my house so I can't wait to get home, hopefully they release the qd soon since it's a requirement for me. I just can't roll w/o a sling swivel on the stock.

Please tell me Andrew is about to release a slew, nay, a bevy, nay, a veritable cornucopia of mounts?

If it's any consolation, when Stick started this thread, not even the Staff knew what he was making reference to -- still don't, in fact. He's nothing if not a good keeper of secrets.

Something I've been tripping over for a little while, and if I get a free couple minutes, we'll announce it here tuesday. I'll point out that it is currently 0321hrs on tuesday, but I haven't slept yet, and I need to get up in a few hours for a full day.


Somehow or other I will try to shoehorn it in. I've already got most of the images shot.

I am aware of a new component from NRW that has yet to really be announced (have had one on order since it was quietly prototyped a few months ago, actually), but still have no idea what Stick is talking about.

...ACR?...lol! Stick never said who it was from, but it was large enough to be tripped over.
I mean, if it's in your way Stick, I'll be happy to take it off your hands. I'd hate to see you overburdened with gear.

Not to feed the conjecture, but there would be a certain logic to that, as Remington just delivered one to AAC a couple of weeks ago for suppressor R&D, and one or two (?) additional examples have been provided for the AAC Silencer Shoot raffle later this month.

Clearly, some (very) low-rate pre-production rifles are showing up in various places, and I see no reason why Stick's doorstep might not be one of them.

We may be done for now, as I believe the modified SwitchBlock rail from NRW was the big news this time. Still, with Stick, one can never be too sure. ;)
