I tried BCM Magpul and others. Best handbrake out there. Always a good experience with Milspec Will we ever know the answer until someone is accused of possessing one offensive weapon to possess another? In addition to handling two separate wires, the two-channel version of the MCC can be used to accommodate excess sagging in one wire, as they have shown here. Micro Cable clips definitely live up to their « micro » nickname and are available in one- or two-channel variants. The integrated front and rear barricade stops ensure maximum stability. Shooter and amateur hunter/sportsman for life, former U.S. Army infantryman, constant student of firearms. Always looking to improve and learn more. Interested in a variety of shooting disciplines and enthusiastic about all kinds of weapons. Instagram Contact: @WillTFB Let`s start with the handbrake, which carries an MSRP of $35 or $40, depending on the color. This ultra-light M-LOK hand stop accessory is advertised with a weight of less than an ounce and only 26 grams.

The dimensions are 1.1 inches wide, 2.1 inches high and 1.9 inches long. It occupies a standard M-LOK slot and a half, and I`d say its overall shape is pretty much similar to a BCM GUNFIGHTER Mod 3 vertical handle – although it offers different ergonomics – and it`s about half the weight of the BCM. Think of it as if it was essentially somewhere between the size and shape of Magpuls AFG and VFG. It attaches easily and safely to my M-LOK rail and seems to be rock solid. The lightness of the handbrake does not seem to sacrifice any compromise in the strength or rigidity of the material. I wasn`t able to create a flex or meaningful movement by squeezing or pushing it against barriers from different sides and angles. Although my goal was by no means to test for torture, I am convinced that this thing could easily withstand a good amount of difficult use without breaking or failing. Handbrake`s exclusive texture pattern has been developed in-house for ideal adhesion.

Most fans of AR-style firearms tend to share some similarities. One of the keys is that we usually like to customize our ARs. A major advantage of the platform has long been its modularity. Especially since the army began using different versions of the CAR-15, Colt Commando and later the vast M4 family (as well as their various antagonists and cousins), the modifications became virtually ubiquitous. The market for commercial parts and accessories has reacted in the same way and has been engaged for many years in the development of large quantities of all kinds of products. If you were to take a random sample of a handful of the millions of AR-15s that are in American hands today, there`s a good chance there won`t be two identical. Given the popularity of add-ons and debates about aspects such as barrel length, hand protection systems, types of optics, etc., it is not difficult to understand why there are so many variations. Tons of AR buyers bring home their new guns and may hesitate very soon before they start thinking, « What can I add or change to this gun to make it work better for me? » To do this, enter Emissary Development. The handbrake offers a decent amount of real estate to buy, especially if you consider its relatively compact and lightweight specs. You may have noticed my use of « v1 » above and suspected that it indicates a v2.

They would be right. Emissary worked on a second, more minimalist version, aptly called the Micro Cable Clip. « Micro » is right; This new product is relatively tiny, even by the tiny standards of the original cable clip. They occupy a little more surface area than the heads of the Torx screws they attach, as Emissary first revealed via Instagram in March 2021. When they saw that I had written press articles about cable management product options from some other manufacturers, they contacted TFB to ask if I wanted to test their own new version as well as their manual shutdown. I agreed, so they sent me a handbrake and a prototype of the then unpublished Micro Cable clips for testing and evaluation.
