EMR-A

[Duffy]

EMR-A extended reach lever on top, standard lever on bottom. Extended reach lever is shy of 0.1 inch longer than the standard lever, just that 0.1 inch makes it easier to press.

I didn't take this pic, it's good enough from the shop floor


Note the portion with the V shaped relief, this area is immediately below a bolt catch's lower paddle, and is of lower profile than the serrated portion of the EMR-A lever. We wanted the area below the bolt catch's lower paddle to be as low and clear of clutter as possible, this happens to be the same area that creates interference and makes a standard bolt catch's lower paddle difficult to access.


In this picture, we show the ABC/R v2 (with thinner and tapered upper paddle, and no lightening cuts) and the EMR-A. Notice the area below the ABC/R v2's lower paddle, compared to the original ABC/R with a Norgon Ambi-Catch.

Looking great!

Compatibility with Geissele's Maritime Bolt Catch:

EMR-A most likely will not work with Geissele's Maritime Bolt Catch, with its extended lower paddle, without taking off material from either.

Even when that's done, these two control surfaces will be very close to one another (MBC's lower paddle on top, EMR-A's lever immediately below), it's not a good arrangement.

This remains true if we redesign (we're not) the EMR-A's lever to not overlap the MBC's lower paddle, these two surfaces will still be next to one another, with a sim gap in between. We never want control surfaces that closely placed together for obvious reasons.

EMR-A, like the rest of our products, works with milspec AR receivers and components, or receivers and components that don't differ drastically from TDP specs. MBC's larger and longer paddle puts it in the "drastically different" category.

A better pic of the EMR-A standard and extended lever. There has been numerous requests for dimpled EMR-A paddles, we'll make the dimpled EMR-A paddles for the next production run and they will retain the AA (all angles) moniker. The dimple pattern will resemble the ABC/R-AA, with large and small dimples

Need!

Looks like I need to start budgeting...

Remember to use your WEVO discount code
EMR-A is priced below some competition, and above others, it's middle ground in terms of MSRP. We should be retailing it for close to $90, and it can rightfully compete with Norgon's Ambi-catch, but we don't want to price it out of reach, and make it a hard decision for folks that want it, so we'll make less margin. I've always said Forward Controls isn't all about money

Any ETA on the EMR's? Specifically, the black ano'd ones.

[Duffy]

EMRs are back in stock, all anodized http://forwardcontrolsdesign.com/EMR_p_20.html

Top: standard lever. Bottom: extended lever. The pic's perspective makes the EMR-A with extended lever larger, the extended reach lever is 0.09" longer, but not taller.

Thank you, order has been shipped with something extra for you

Very well done! I may have to integrate one of these into the next AR build.
