Shockwave now offers the Raptor Grip for the smaller 500E (.410) guns

MADE IN AMERICA. The new Mossberg 500e Raptor Grip, with its enhanced texture, you gain a great hold on your firearm. And its glass-filled polymer construction is virtually indestructible. On sale for a special price of $19.95.

Made of a super-tough glass-filled polymer.

• Mossberg 500E .410 gauge firearms (aka 500E)
• Mossberg 590E .410 gauge firearms (aka 590E)

As a result, the unique angle of the Raptor Grip minimizes felt recoil, allowing maximum control shot after shot. Also, Mounting hardware and bolt hole plug are included.

Furthermore, Mossberg 500E or 590E with a 14? barrel with our Raptor installed measures 26.5? in overall length.  The grip itself adds 5.25? to the length of the firearm (measured parallel to the bore). The Raptor will fit the .410 guns with 18.5?, 20?, and longer barrels.

Above all, there is no predefined hole for a sling swivel stud on the Raptor Grip M500E. This allows you to put your sling swivel wherever you want it on the grip–not just where we think it should go. Be sure to drill a 1/8? pilot hole.

Sirearms/802Traders

Shawn over at Sirearms/802Traders is always coming up with the coolest stuff. He’s made a limited run of the Zver 12 non-NFA semi-auto PGO firearm. Priced at only $999, you can find them here.

870 Tac 14

The Remington 870 Tac 14 is a non-NFA firearm, transferring just like any Title 1 pistol, rifle, or shotgun. It features a 14″ barrel, associated 870 front-end components, Magpul M-Lok forend—and the Shockwave Technologies Raptor Grip for R870.

We are very honored that Remington chose our Raptor Grip to complete their 870 Tac-14 firearm.

Okay, Shoulder your Brace!

I just got off the phone with a very nice gentleman at ATF Tech Branch—who was fielding these calls today. (He was, understandably, very well versed on the subject—and very nice about it even though he’s been on the phone all day, repeating himself ad nauseam.) I identified myself and asked him specifically if the letter that’s making the rounds is limited to one company’s products–or if it applies to all pistol stabilizing braces. He said: “The letter covers all pistol stabilizing braces, including the Shockwave Blade.” So that settles that.

He then gave me a bit of further guidance for our customers:

1. By “permanent affixing,” ATF considers that to be adding permanent Loctite to the large set screw that secures the Blade into the dimples in the KAK tube. As long as you don’t red Loctite the set screw in place, ATF considers it to be “temporarily placed” and “perfectly okay to shoulder.” (He didn’t beat around the bush on this topic.)
2. “Length of pull”—for lack of a better word regarding pistol braces—begins to enter a “gray area” above 13.5″. Above 13.5″ begins “to enter shoulder stock area.” (His words. I believe this has to do with the “comfortableness” aspect.) On an AR-15, the “length of pull” for the Blade is approximately 13.13″, so no issues there. But if you use the Blade on a firearm that requires a large adapter of some sort, please make sure that you only use the dimples up to the point that you remain below the 13.5″ length. Stay below 13.5″ and according to ATF, it’s okay to shoulder a Shockwave Blade.

So there you have it. Anything you read to the contrary on a web forum, social media site, or industry blog is simple misinformation by people who are not being completely honest.

ATF Clarifies Shouldering Pistol Stabilizers

As you’ve probably heard or read by now, the ATF has clarified its position on shouldering pistol stabilizers.  They’ve opined that sporadic or situational shouldering of a pistol stabilizer doesn’t automagically create an NFA item.

And credit where credit’s due: Kudos to those who pushed for the clarification.

With 2016 officially in the books, Shockwave is happy to report that it was a banner year for us. And 2017 is already shaping up to be even bigger. To show our appreciation to our past and future customers, we are lowering the price of Blade pistol stabilizers from $48.95 to $42.95. (We’ve reduced the price of complete kits, too.) Our goal is to keep earning the business of our repeat customers and that of our new customers. Besides, who doesn’t like to save a few bucks on their AR parts? 😉 Find our selection of pistol stabilizers and attachment kits here.

Blade Patent

On November 15, 2016, the United States Patent and Trademark Office issued US Patent No. D771,765 for the Blade pistol stabilizer. The Blade features a vertical “rudder” that the user stabilizes against the inside of their forearm when in the firing position. Its design gives the user additional support of a firearm while it is still held and operated with one hand. “I couldn’t be more proud that the Patent and Trademark Office honored me with a patent for my unique pistol stabilizer,” remarked Martin Ewer, President of Shockwave Technologies LLC.

Team Shockwave is very proud and honored that Mossberg has chosen to pair our grip with their newest offering.

We still have about 100 black Blades that just “didn’t make the cut” with the QC department. But they’re still very usable. Most of these “factory seconds” have a small flaw on the top surface where the sprue was cut during production. We only have these in black. And the quantity is very limited.

ZMAGs Get a New Follower and Insert

In an effort to continually improve our great products, we have begun shipping ZMAGs with our new, improved polymer followers and inserts.

The new followers feature a reduced surface area where the follower makes contact with the inside of the mag body. This ensures the follower can smoothly progress up the mag as you empty your firearm at rates up to 3,000 RPM*.

The inserts are now plastic (versus formed sheet steel). This new insert features a “taller” and “squarer” button for engaging the hole in the floorplate better.

Find ZMAGs here.

*That’s the fastest we could get our test M11-A1 to run. If you have a faster gun, let us know. Videos are always a plus. 🙂
