"What is... the DoubleStar DS-420 Handguard," answered DoubleStar President, Teresa Starnes. The question, "Name the 12-inch handguard designed at the request of law enforcement to outfit their AR rifles with 20 inch long barrels. The handguard consists of a 4-rail picatinny system, is aircraft aluminum tough, and has a unique oval shape that fits both large and small-handed shooters."
The DoubleStar DS-420 Handguard is a full 12-inches of aircraft-grade 60-61 T6 aluminum. This offers a tremendous weight advantage and strength to men and women in uniform, as well as shooting sports enthusiasts. The four-sided picatinny rail is a mil-spec system. This universal system enables you to mount a variety of tactical accessories to the forearm of the rifle. The 12 inch oval design leaves ample room for you to add accessories and allows both large and small hands the ability to grip the 20 inch barrelled AR rifles.
DoubleStar Vice-President Jesse Starnes said, "The DS-420 Handguard was specifically created in response to requests from law enforcement officers' for a longer tactical forearm to fit the 20 inch barrelled AR rifles. Our unique oval design allows for lights, lasers and other accessories to be mounted on the forearm and at the same time gives shooters of all hand size the ability to properly grip the rifle."
The snap-on installation has a spring pressure that forces the handguard against the front handguard cap. A tight fit forms, eliminating any side to side movement. This precision fit provides a stable base of placement for all tactical accessories.

There's a bit of relief for the shortage of AR-15 barrels, at least at Brownells. The Iowa-based supplier of gunsmithing tools and firearm accessories has just released their own, 16" M-4-style barrel for the popular rifle.
The AR-15/M16/M4 Carbine Barrel (#080-000-681) is made of 4140 chrome moly steel, hardened to Rc 26-33 and stress relieved. It's 16" long with a 1 in 7 twist and ½"-28 threads for a flash hider. M4 feed ramps provide reliable feeding into the 5.56 NATO chamber. A dark gray, Parkerized finish helps prevent rust.
"Brownells is committed to stocking the parts our customers need. When we see people having trouble getting a certain product, we work with our existing suppliers, or find new sources, to make those parts available," said company President Pete Brownell.
No front sight housing/gas block or flash hider/muzzle brake is supplied. That lets the user select the exact components they want without paying for parts that will only end up in a drawer full of other unused pieces.
Brownells is the world's largest supplier of firearm parts, gunsmithing tools, equipment and accessories. Stocking more than 30,000 items, the company supplies armorers, gunsmiths, and shooters worldwide. All of their products are backed by a 100% satisfaction, unconditional, lifetime guarantee.

Magpul B.A.D. Lever
You’ve seen the Magpul Dynamics crew rocking the Battery Assist Device (B.A.D.) in training classes and on their training videos and it’s finally up on the Magpul website. The BAD has been greatly anticipated and has spawned several similar products from small shops and enthusiasts who couldn’t wait for the Magpul product to be released. Well, it’s here now, so you can get the original.
In a nutshell, the BAD allows you to manipulate the bolt catch by extending a paddle to the right side of the weapon into the trigger guard area. The simple design features a thin, anti-snag profile and textured surface that also allows for traditional manipulation of the bolt catch. The BAD is optimized for use with milspec forged upper and lower receivers, but is also compatible with the HK 416, VLTOR VIS/MUR, LaRue Stealth, and many other billet upper and lower receivers.
As with all Magpul products it is manufactured from high quality materials; in this case 6061-T6 aluminum with mil-spec finishing.

NOTE: The BAD is not compatible with the SR-25, AR-10, or other 7.62 caliber AR platforms.
