Can someone tell me what model lights Chris uses on the rifle in this video.  Also, what type of compensator is used?  Thanks.

If you hit the Magpul Industry forum, Costa himself will answer that for you.

i believe its a KAC inconel brake, impossible to find,

and i think a surefire scout with some sort of laser underneath?

They are dual Surefires. He goes through the two light setup on Disk 3 of Art of the Tactical Carbine.

if i remember correctly they are surefire 6p defenders (both of them)





and the compensator is a Knights armament one, like you find on the Knight's PDW (though for 5.56mm)

The DVD shows 2 different types of dual light set-ups.

after a little digging, i believe you are correct on the brake

that comp is correct, its apparently expensive to machine as well

Dual E2DLEDs and a KAC Triple Tap

http://www.m4carbine.net/showthread.php?t=15398&page=22

Hey guys, Chris Costa directed me to this thread.

We call this the Triple Tap P/N 21385G Enhanced Compensator

We are doing a limited run of 100 of these items for civilian release, with the potnetial for more if these sell quickly.

Intially it was designed as a sacrificial blast baffle and brake for the SR25 Battle Rifle 14.5 7.62 gun, it transfered to the 16" BR - and then to the 5.56mm rifles and PDW.

as per Trey Knight

Quote:
There will be no warranty on this item and even though it will accept a M4-QD/NT4 can we do not recommend any kind of heavy usage with a can. I know this is a hot item and I know you guy's want them. The non- inconel version is the answer to this market and it is not ready yet. We(KAC) are focused on bringing more SR-15s to the commercial market so customers don't have to pay $3000 for them. Other projects will take a back seat until that happens. Please understand we are working as hard as we can to make you guy's happy and satisfy our military contracts  

The reason there is no warrantee is the fact you could easily put it inside a NT-4 and if you ran it really really hard you could rupture it inside the suppressor.

Its unlikley - but it has happened, and as such we are being very careful about releasing it to the civilian market place.


There is a large demand for this, but keep in mind it will be expensive, we are trying to hold retail under $500, but at this point due to the inconel, and the EDM machining needed to work this, it is an expensive part to manufacturer.

I have a few of these, I love them, and I will be sitting in line for at least two more when they are released.

* These need to be cleaned - or you get a large carbon buildup - and you will get the fireball that was present in Chris Costa's gun recently.

coldblue - LtCol Dave Lutz - removes his prior to cleaning so as not to add more carbon and filth build up.

I recommend soaking the muzzle end in a solvent tank or ultra-sonic cleaner if you do not wish to removed the Triple Tap

When I remove them and soak in solvent - I then take a wire brush and srub the inside to clean out any caked on carbon or copper buildup.
