Let's welcome our newest sponsor Forward Controls Design. A lot of us are familiar with Forward Controls Design's CEO Roger Wang aka "Duffy" from his days at Battle Arms Development.

About Forward Controls Design:

Forward Controls Design's mission is simple: create a better user-centric, form fitting and logical suite of AR and SCAR components that actually have ergonomics as one of the design goals. Often, a simple change in location, shape, or direction of serrations can make a great deal of difference to the way a user interacts with his firearm.

Formerly a Battle Arms Development partner and co-inventor of the now famous BAD-ASS and BAD-CASS (US patent US 8,806,790 B1) family of AR and M16 safety selectors, and the AR/M16 Enhanced Pins Set (patent pending), I aim to bring forth innovative, well thought out and functionally superior components for the AR and SCAR systems that are ready for combat use from day one, and every day thereafter.

Though Forward Controls Design is a company started in the fall of 2014, I trust most will find the way I run it familiar and comforting. Eschewing conventional wisdom, finding ways to improve something that most deem umimprovable, superb design and execution, exceptional customer service and support, these are among the easily recognizable characteristics with which folks can identify from my days past.

Please bear with us while we flesh out our website with additional content, products and related info. For the time being, we will only sell to dealers and distributors, we encourage you to visit their sites to purchase Forward Controls products.

Welcome, Duffy! My EMRs showed up in the mail today and they're fantastic.

Welcome Duffy. My ABC/R and EMR-C should be here tomorrow.

Having used the EMR's in testing, I have to say they are everything I expected a product from Roger to be. Well thought out, bombproof, and reasonably priced. Roger is also a total class act, and good human being in general. Back when I first got into the game, and was playing host to my first class with an out-of-town instructor, he generously kicked in prizes for students without being asked.

So, basically, if Roger makes it, I'll likely be using it on my rifle. He's as successful as he has been for a reason.

Just ordered the ABC/R today, looking forward to testing it out. I have an out of spec BCR on my wife's rifle and also liked the design/quality that was put into your ABC/R. Welcome to Weapon Evolution forum! What is the finish on the ABC/R? Is it Nitrocarberized?

Looking forward to seeing what FCD has in store for the SCAR platform. His products I have handled so far have been flawless.

I like the C version as do most people I think. I still haven't gotten around to installing the standard version

Looks like those ABC/Rs are sold out everywhere. When's the next batch?

Just put mine on today(ACB/R) and they are nice! Well made and function extremely well. The larger paddles are well thought out, not to big but just right. The bottom paddles angle is great as well and allows an excellent tactile feel. I'm not easily impressed but this is a great piece of gear. Zero front to back play and sits just the right amount of distance away from the upper so as not to dig into the Cerakote. Its an easy 5 star product.

Just think as nice as the product is, the customer service is even better.

Nice! But if he keeps making high end rock solid parts I will probably never need to use it.[:D]
