This is a pistol brace that attaches to the end of a carbine buffer tube that uses a small amount of material and is only one part. It can be printed in large quantities and finished with a single 5/16-18 set screw. I recommend the set screw be 3/4 to 1"
This model is a public domain license. Give these away from free, hang them from trees, and litter the streets in front of ATF field offices. Print them in bright obnoxious colors and take a ton of pictures.
This is a BLC branded side plate (sans bolt catch hole) for the FAMAR15.
It has been 4 months since the initial release and the BLC has been working out kinks and DLC since then.
The BGO (Bootleg Grenade Defensive) is a model based on the RGO 78 grenade (Ручная граната Оборона 78) which uses a western style fuse that is made of plastic. It uses a body similar to the RGD5 and the fuses are interchangeable.
This model consists of a replica body printable in two parts that is threaded 5/8-11" and will fit standard M228 or M213 fuses, and a printable head that uses modified M228 components. The spoon needs the side flanges on the top surface removed to make room for the embossed text on the side of the fuse.
The printable fuse head must be printed at high infill and can only use small pistol primers or similar.
This is the set of mounts for the Pipe Hitter 37mm launcher, and the standalone base in .STEP files so that the mounts can be modified to fit other platforms, or the standalone platform can be modified to host other platforms.
The OSHG, stackable grenade body is based on the real world Scalable Offensive Hand Grenade. Originally produced by Nammo, the novel device has not been in the public eye for some time.
The OSHG is assembled in two halves, with four tabs that snap in place. I recommend heating the fragile printable tabs with a lighter and pressing them into place to prevent snapping with brittle materials. Ensure the tabs are cleaned well and free of burrs. I used a solder iron to round the edges inside the tabs and a small lighter to heat the tabs. Ensure while heating the top side, you do not expose any payload in the bottom half to an open flame.
A prototype printable fuse head and spoon are also included. Assemble the left and right half into the center section with two M5 bolts 25mm in length and two M5 locking nuts, or similar hardware. Use a lighter to soften the threads on the body and carefully insert the fuse. Test fit all parts before installing any payload. The grenade body can be used with a metal M228 head or the printable head. Heat and careful fitting is needed for male threaded printed parts as the stems are 5/8" thick and are somewhat fragile.
Ensure multiple stacked grenades are assembled snug but not overtightened, and avoid bending the assembled units. The longer the assembly the more fragile it can become.
Ensure the desired filler material leaves a hole completely through the center of the grenade body for reliable ignition of subsequent grenade bodies, and ensure the end cap is affixed to prevent filler leaking from the grenade body.
When the printable fuse is ignited sparks will be thrown from the bottom of the grenade if the end cap is not in place. A punctured primer will also result in sparks emitting from the top of the device and care should be taken not to ignite or use the device around other unassembled units that are not properly stored or covered.
The recommendation is that 3 is a maximum that can be used effectively as any more make the overall device too fragile and unlikely to be thrown successfully. Even two bodies being used may separate if they land on a hard surface. It all comes down to careful fitting and your print settings when making and using this part. I cracked two tabs assembling my first one and welded them back on with a solder iron. The tabs did not lay flat without reaming burrs off of the tabs as well. I used a bench vise to fully seat mine.
This is the release of the GP37.
The GP37 is a 37mm caseless launcher that can be loaded with the same payloads as commercial 37mm launchers, in a new caseless format that resembles eastern launchers for the AK series.
The GP37 uses a simple electronic ignition, and does not utilize conventional primers.
This model of GP37 mounts to a 1913 'picatinny' rail. A standalone mount resembling the RGM-40 Kastet is in progress that it will mount to.
A more traditional direct mount is also in progress, and will mount to an unmodified AKM style rifle.
The sight used on this model is an M15 grenade sight for an M1 Garand. These can be had under $30 and are similar enough to a GP sight yet easy to obtain.
A parts list and assembly writeup with picture instructions is in progress.
This model features an optional functioning ejector and safety selector.
I am disappointed but not surprised that ATF is once again attempting to infringe on our rights, by publishing a ban on pistol braces, as seen here. The time is approaching where the rule comes into play. There are facts that are indisputable here, such as the ATF not having the authority to do so, as they are not allowed to create nor interpret these laws. The supreme court has even made rulings that have consequences for their very existence. They enforce laws which do not exist, but that does not make the threat they pose any less severe. They will use force to impose these laws upon us, and they will find themselves to have done nothing wrong when it comes time for the law to hold them accountable.
The best scenario is mass non-compliance. Take them for the joke they are. They will lose any case they put forth, and they will lose any fight they start.
This is a mould I was working on to produce an M16 alike brace. The brace fits a standard rifle buffer. The brace is the same length as an M16 stock. The M16s stock achieves a length of pull of roughly 13" which falls within the 13.5" maximum for a pistol brace. Previously any brace that did not have a length of pull over 13.5" and did not have a flat buttpad designed to be shouldered was legal. Keep in mind also that the 13.5" rule is also not a real law passed by congress but something they came up with, and in secret. They tried to charge a man with this secret never before seen rule and were laughed out of the courtroom, thankfully so or we would not know of the existence of this 'law'. They tried and failed to have records sealed as well.
This mould contains an external half, and two plugs that create the holes in the brace for the arm hole and buffer tube. I have never made an item like this, and this mould will probably need modification. I have included a .step assembly file. This project was put on the backburner some time ago, but as time runs out I am throwing every resource I have out there. I believe this brace could be printed if a soft enough flexible filament was used.
This is a compilation of all of my previous releases and DLC for the FamAR-15 as a base rifle. The up to date bill of materials and instructions are included.
The separate Pipe Hitter launcher DLC parts are available on Odysee as an additional DLC and the Felin FAMAS style FELON optic is in the late prototype stage.
The only other change that may be made to the base rifle in the future is a template to tap the upper handguard rear half into the upper receiver to increase rigidity for mounting optics.
