Arredondo Accessories Surefire 60 Magazine Basepad - a basepad designed specifically for the new Surefire 60 round magazine. Available in black only. Easy slip on design.

TI-7 Stock - our new favorite stock. I especially like the quick disconnect sling socket built right into the stock. I also like the fact that the bottom of the stock is rounded so it rides up your shoulder nicely and doesn't catch on anything. All metal hardware is stainless steel. The two storage spaces are accessible while the stock is on the weapon, but the stock can be removed with one hand if necessary and no special tools are needed for removal. Has an anti-rattle design, rubber butt pad, and comfortable special ops triangular cheekweld. Nice large handle makes adjustments a breeze. Available for both commercial size and milspec buffer tubes. Available in black only. Price is $92.99.

The CPWSA review of the Burris MTAC 30 scope and PEPR mount. Instead of continuing to answer questions about this scope on the phone, I decided to put a review here to save some time. While I don't have enough time with the scope and mount for a long term evaluation, I currently think this is a great scope/mount combo for the money. I have one on a patrol rifle and have been impressed with both the scope and the mount. The mount is very sturdy and well built. To give you some idea of my basis for comparison, I replaced a LaRue Tactical LT104 mount and Trijicon TR24 scope with the Burris MTAC 30 and Burris PEPR mount. At this point, the biggest difference in the two is the Burris combo is about $650 cheaper than the Trijicon and LaRue combo. For LE or tactical applications, I would have to know my holdovers with the TR 24 at 25 yards to make a hostage rescue shot; and while that isn't a big deal, I much prefer knowing I simply need to use the 400 yard dot on the Burris reticle to hit a dime every time at 25 yards. A precise aiming reference isn't a bad thing as compared to a "guesstimated" holdover. From a competition standpoint, I really like the reticle on the MTAC for long range shots. The dots are large enough on flash targets at long range to make good hits, but not so large as to obscure the target. The only thing that takes some getting used to in my opinion is using the 600 yard "dot", which is the circular cutout in the large red outer ring. I like the large outer ring for both competition and tactical applications as that becomes your aiming reference in a CQB scenario or house clearing stage instead of the small center dot. The illumination is not truly daytime visible and I would compare it exactly to what is offered on the U.S. Optics scopes. Documentation provides mil and inch dimensions on every dot, bar, and circle in the reticle, which allows for size estimations or ranging if necessary. I'll be using this scope and mount combo in two upcoming rifle matches and will continue to provide feedback here. So far I've been impressed.

Review Update: I've decided this is the best $400 3-gun competition scope available. I've got a good deal of time with the scope now and really like this thing. On a 16" barrel carbine, the yardage dots in the scope are dead on out to 500 yards with XM193 ammo. It doesn't get any easier, or better than that. For 450 yard shots, simply center the plate between the 400 and 500 yard dots. I've not had a chance to check the 600 yard dot yet to verify it's correct.

MTAC30 Scope MTAC30 Reticle

Burris Fullfield MTAC30 - this is a new Burris offering and a great scope for 3 gun competition or tactical applications. The big improvements in the MTAC30 compared to the older TAC30 scope is the improved illumination switch, and most importantly, only the adjustment ring, not the whole eyepiece, turns when you change magnification power settings. These scopes feature 30mm 6061T6 aircraft aluminum tubes, multi-coated lenses for a clear view, and Burris' forever warranty. Adjustments are 1/2" at 100 yards and feature a steel on steel mechanism with positive, audible, repeatable clicks. The reticle (shown above) is illuminated and has ten power settings with an off setting in between each power setting. Documentation is provided with the range of each BDC dot for all popular 5.56/.223 bullet weights. Click Here to visit the Burris website for more information on these great scopes. Don't forget your Switchview Throw Lever and Scopecoat modified for the Switchview lever offered below. The Meopta Meostar lever works great with this scope. Price is $399.99.

Burris P.E.P.R. (Proper Eye Position Ready) AR15 Scope Mount - the perfect one piece aluminum mount for the MTAC 30. Provides 2" of forward scope positioning room which will allow you to obtain proper eye relief and maintain a proper shooting position with AR15 rifle. The mount is designed at the right height for a full field of view and proper eye relief on the AR platform. It comes with two sets of top ring caps. One is the standard plain top cap and the second set has pictanny rails on them as shown in the picture above. You can opt for the standard top cap if you want a streamlined look, or you can use the pictanny rail top caps if you ever want to mount additional accessories on the ring caps. Dimensions listed above. This is the mount for 30mm scopes.

Syrac Ordnance Adjustable Gas Block - this front adjustable gas block is unique in that it has locking detents that ensure your gas flow adjustments do not move under recoil or get accidentally changed. This has been the downfall of most adjustable gas blocks in my opinion. An adjustable gas block allows you to slow down the speed of your bolt carrier for less felt recoil and faster follow up shots. This gas block is adjustable from the front, which eliminates the need to remove the handguard every time you want to make an adjustment. The locking detent ensures accurate repeatability and security, as well as eliminates the need for LocTite which is a requirement for all other blocks. The gas block secures to the barrel with two set screws. It comes with two hex keys. One hex key is used to turn the set screw to increase or decrease gas flow through the block, and the other hex key is used to lock and unlock the detent. The adjustment screw will not turn until the locking detent is depressed with the hex key. This, along with being able to adjust the block from the front is a great concept for an adjustable gas block. This is a low profile gas block and will work under all hand guards. Currently available for .750" barrel diameters. Only 1" long and weighs 1.72 ounces. Comes with a 100% manufacturer satisfaction guarantee. Installation and adjustment instructions are provided. Works on AR15 and AR10 rifles. Price is $99.00.

MagPul .223/5.56mm Windowed PMag with Nordic Extender Installed - this combo is nice! A windowed PMag with the clear Nordic Extender installed and ready to go. Know at a glance how many rounds are in the magazine or the extender. These hold 49 rounds or a reloadable 48 rounds. Comes with the MagPul top cap which can be snapped on to take the pressure off the feed lips, which enables the mag to stay loaded for long periods of time, then still function reliably. Price is $57.99.

PMAG™s cannot be shipped outside the United States of America, including APO addresses. Additionally, these cannot be shipped to California, Hawaii, New Jersey, New York, Washington, D.C., Maryland, Massachusetts, Chicago, IL, Aurora, IL, Oak Park, IL, or South Bend, IN.

CMC Drop In Trigger - Self-contained, single stage, drop-in trigger module replaces the heavy factory trigger found in many commercial AR-15s and delivers a crisp, pre-set 3½ lb. or 4 1/2 lb. pull. Provides all the advantages of a fine, match-grade, single-stage trigger without having to fit and adjust multiple components. Rigid, steel, trigger housing holds all the factory-tuned, internal components in proper alignment for easy, fast installation.

Each trigger assembly is adjusted at the factory to minimize take-up and over-travel. Threaded sleeves provide ultra-smooth pivot surfaces for the hammer and trigger. Two, slightly oversized center pins replace the standard, trigger/hammer pins to save wear, reduce friction, and prevent trigger wobble; E-clips at both ends prevent trigger pin walk. Available in 3 1/2 lb. competition and 4 1/2 lb. tactical models with traditional curved trigger, or skeletonized flat trigger that provides a different feel some shooters prefer and gives your AR15 a distinctive look.

AR15 Chamber Cleaning Kit - I don't know about you, but I have to shoot in some pretty rough weather conditions sometimes.

Dueck Defense Rapid Transition Sighting System - a fancy title for offset sights in my opinion. But, I will say they are the best sights out there for those who want an offset iron sight setup in addition to their primary optic.

Anodized aluminum available in red, blue, and black. Differentiate slugs from bird shot or buck shot by color of caddy.
