Decades of military and LE experience, uppers from Centurion and build tips from battle-proven experts these rifles are dead-on from 0 to 600 yards!
This custom patrol rifle has everything a working cop needs. It’s a “buy once” working tool that features Centurion Arms’ 16-inch double-chrome-lined barrel, CSAT sights and a top-notch LMT SOPMOD stock.
As the use of patrol rifles and carbines become more commonplace in the law enforcement community, we are also finding ways to enhance factory rifles to perform better in the field. With this trend comes the unfortunate situation where many officers are placing additions onto their guns that are substandard and of questionable quality.
From aerial gunnery to fast, accurate shooting out to 600 yards, this general-purpose AR-platform rifle does it all.
I have always subscribed to the “buy quality, buy once” theory, and I also extensively test my gear to ensure it functions flawlessly in the field and can be counted on during a crisis. I had two rifles built over the last couple of years that have performed flawlessly and surpassed my expectations of quality. The first rifle was built to fill a need for a “general-purpose police rifle.” This is a gun that can perform a laundry list of tasks really well with a one-gun approach. The first gun worked so well that I built a second gun as a near-perfect patrol rifle that would work well in an urban police law enforcement function. Both guns were built around Centurion Arms’ C4 rail systems, double-chrome-lined, 16-inch cold-hammer-forged barrels and mid-length gas systems.
The first gun is one of my all time favorite rifles. It has performed so well that I would put it up against any modern combat rifle. The gun started life as a Colt LE6920. Ken Elmore at Specialized Armament Warehouse (SAW) did his proprietary reliability package on the upper and lower. The gun then had the Centurion Arms 16-inch lightweight mid-length (9-inch gas system) upper installed. When Centurion released their 12-inch C4 handguard, this was one of the first guns fit with it.

Remington Versa Max Tactical 12 GA
私たちのブログを訪問していただきありがとうございます。あなたがお持ちの場合DIYの要求は私達に電子メールを送信してください。
Revolutionary scattergun packed with fight-stopping power!
The Versa Max Tactical from Remington, shown equipped with an EOTech HWS optic, is designed to fire a wide range of shotshell loadings without a hitch.
In July, I traveled to Remington’s research and development facility in Elizabethtown, Kentucky, to tour the facility and try out the new Versa Max Tactical shotgun. I had heard reports about the Versa Max, but I hadn’t handled one until a few weeks ago. When the daylong event was over, my assessment was that its new scattergun has the potential to overtake the competition tactical shotgun market. In addition, the Versa Max Tactical promises to be a top-of-the-line law enforcement weapon.
The Versa Max Tactical features a loading port on the underside of the receiver, allowing access to the tubular magazine.
A handful of gun writers toured the facility and met Scott Franz, the director of research and technology, and Michael Keeney, the director of firearms development for Big Green. At one point, we watched the obligatory PowerPoint presentation that would make any engineer giddy with excitement. But I’m not an engineer.
A large bolt handle and magazine release button make putting the gun in battery a snap with heavy gloves.
When they brought out the tactical version of the Versa Max and passed it around, and then showed us a disassembled Versa Max, they had the full attention of this hands-on guy. As soon as the gun was broken down, I recognized that it shared some significant design elements with the Benelli M4—but on steroids. The engineers stressed that the design is capable of firing shells from the most powerful 3½-inch loads to the lightest 2¾-inch loads. I was quick to ask Franz about this regarding the Versa Max. “From a technical standpoint, we look at what our competitors do. The innovation is the gas system, and it’s 100 percent American-made,” Franz said with a grin.
The Versa Max shotgun is designed to fire a wide range of shells, from 2 3/4″ to 3” to 3 1/2″ lengths, interchangeably and without malfunctions.

CT-71 Anti Terrorist
私たちのブログを訪問していただきありがとうございます。あなたがお持ちの場合DIYの要求は私達に電子メールを送信してください。
An exclusive look at the training and weapons of Jordan’s elite CT-71 Battalion.
With a cutting edge training facility, a certified special operations leader and the latest in decisive firepower, Jordan’s CTB-71 is ready to protect and serve. CTB-71 point man hurries towards the breach point with his G36, equipped with EOTech’s holo sight. The G36 carbine is easily adaptable to various counter-terror missions and environs.
“30 seconds, 30 seconds.”
I hear the time hack called through my ear protection and helmet as our Suburban rolls at high speed, locked and loaded through the desert. Terrain is sparse and bare: undulating hills with block houses and dirt patches as far as the horizon. The city is the desert and the desert is the city; There is no distinction in terrain or color. We’re moving fast, the sensation of speed magnified by proximity to the ground. This and the fact that I’m standing on the extended running board at the rear right position outside the suburban has my heart rate elevated and a broad smile across my face.
“10 seconds, 10 seconds.”
The call is repeated by the mission team leader in the lead vehicle of our two-vehicle assault element. Other team members and I have just enough time to do final gear checks— press checking rifles confirming they’re “hot,” re-verifying that optics are on and working, and a quick visual re-check that no mission-essential gear has fallen during our trip to the target. Not that it would matter. Time’s up.
“Go, go, go.”
U.S. Marine fires a .45-caliber pistol at a target during a precision marksmanship contest at King Abdullah II Special Operations Training Center in Jordan.
The team leader didn’t need to say it. The rapid deceleration and sudden stop of the up-armored Suburban served as an easy and simple indicator. Step off the board. Hit the ground running. We’re on target and it’s time to move. My boots hit the ground as I hop from my spot at the rear of the lead assault vehicle and I make my way toward our initial breach point. In front of me, my team members bring up their rifles and scan the area of the surrounding rooftops and pathways—areas meant to serve as streets and thoroughfares, but that are no more than alleys and cart paths. I can see people on the objective. Are they friendlies? They’re focused on what we’re doing with a casual observance—a tilt of the head and an expression of wonder and disbelief. It reminds me of when you’re driving through the heartland of America past miles and miles of crop land and come across a random piece of abandoned farm machinery, baked by the sun, derelict, sitting in the middle of a field. You look at it, recognizing it for what it is but also registering that it’s not supposed to be there but you say to yourself anyway, “why wouldn’t it be…”
