Interesting Gun Mods II

If you missed our first installment you can find it here


Are you looking for a use for your Mosin bayonet? How about a handle that allows you to turn it into a sword? Brass Stacker has them.


Speaking of bayonets, if you would like to mount an M7 or M9 bayonet on your shotgun, there is now another option. NC star is selling these shotgun bayonet mounts for Mossberg 500 and Remington 870 shotguns (Mossberg unit shown). Get more information at their website here




It is handy being able to glance at your gun and see how many rounds you have left,

Of course to pull this off you need some transparent magazines, ETS has them at very reasonable prices


You could also pick up one of these transparent frames from Lone Wolf, they displayed them at the Shot Show last year, but I couldn't find them on their website


I also stumbled across these see-thru grips for a Ruger Vaquero on ebay....not sure what I think about this....kinda weird, like the Taurus View revolver....




Tennessee Arms created a clear polymer lower, but unfortunately they are not listed on their website any longer

Now that the AR has reached ubiquitous status, the anodized color choices have become infinite


Anyone who has fired a modern paint ball marker (they don't 
like to call them guns) knows the advantage of this style of trigger. This was made by ELF Tactical, but I do not see them on their website, maybe this was just an experimental unit?


Some cool AR grip options:

This one is from Tyrant Designs 
 

This one is from Venom Defense


If you have a 9mm AR lower that accepts Glock magazines you may be interested in these grips from Tri-Tech Tactical, they have two sizes for what appears model 19 (15 round) and model 26 (10 round) magazines

If you are running a Glock mag equipped AR, you may want to couple your high cap mags together with this mag coupler from Lone Wolf Distributors:







Here is an interesting stock set for a Remington 870 shotgun.....inlaid mother of pearl, see it on ebay


Wicked grips offers some 3D recoil spring plugs for your 1911 pistol, see them here



An interesting story, someone is selling a kit for you to build a Glock frame from pieces of steel, see the story here


I'm not sure how practical this one handed thumbhole stock is, but it definitely is interesting


When it comes to flash hiders/muzzle devices for your AR the choices are nearly endless....here is one from Specialized Tactical Systems that is interesting...





How about a fore grip with a built in set of Brass Knuckles?  A back up plan, similar to the bayonet. Survival Grips is making these available to States where legal.




Here is something for you left handed SKS owners, a left handed bolt handle modification


This was a new one on me, using high voltage electricity to burn "lightning marks" into a wood stock. see it done here


How about a retractable bayonet for your sporting rifle?? This is the stinger from American Defense Innovations. It is just the prototype for the SHOT show. Sometimes I wonder if the popularity of bayonets is driven solely by the left's desire to ban them....
