SIG M400 and SIG M400 Enhanced Carbines Shipping

SIG SAUER M400 Enhanced Carbine

SIG SAUER, Inc., the leading manufacturer of commercial, law enforcement and military firearms, introduces an improved version of the current 5.56×45mm military issue centerfire tactical carbine, the SIG M400™.

The SIG M400™ has been introduced for consumers who prefer the direct impingement gas system and have an inventory of parts and accessories for the original M4-style carbine. Built with SIG SAUER® quality and reliability, the SIG M400™ is also an exceptional value for those seeking an AR-platform rifle.

To increase accuracy over mil-spec carbines, the SIG M400™ features a tensioning device designed into the lower receiver that ensures a tight lockup and eliminates accuracy-robbing play between the upper and lower receivers. The lower receiver has all the same features as the SIG 516™ such as an ambidextrous magazine release and rear quick-detach sling mount. Both receivers are machined from 7075-T6 aircraft-grade aluminum forgings and coated with a durable phosphate finish.

The upper receiver features an integrated MIL-STD 1913 accessory top rail for mounting optics and accepts most M16/AR15-style furniture. A six-position collapsible polymer stock offers adjustability to fit all shooters. An Enhanced version of the SIG M400 features all Magpul® furniture.

Chambered in 5.56 NATO, the SIG M400™ will be available in semi-automatic for commercial users. Three-round burst or fully automatic versions will be made available for military and law enforcement. Built to full military specifications, the SIG M400™ features a 16″ chrome moly steel barrel with a chrome-lined chamber and bore. A direct-gas impingement system operates a seven-lug, rotating bolt. The muzzle is threaded ½ x 28 TPI to accept a variety of flash hiders, compensators or suppressor mounts. An M16A2 flash compensator is included.

A removable sight assembly and carry handle, 30-round magazine and hard case are standard features on this rifle.

JP RIFLES PSC-11 Side-Charge Upper Receiver Kit

JP RIFLES PSC-11 Side-Charge Upper Receiver Kit

Now this is pretty interesting and will quickly be added to the “Must Own” list. While on the surface it’s quite expensive but once you dive in to the specs you realize it comes with a JP FULL MASS BOLT CARRIER GROUP, JP ENHANCED BOLT and PSC-11 RECIEVER it becomes a good value for what you are getting.

Here’s the information from JP Rifles

Since its introduction at SHOT Show 2011, our dual-charging PSC-11 platform has become a true hit. Integrating the popular side-charge system of the LRP-07 and SCR-11 platforms into a machined-from-billet receiver that doesn’t sacrifice any of the functionality or compatibility of a standard Mil-spec upper has made the PSC-11 the best-of-both-worlds option for the all-out tactical market. Now, for the home rifle builder, we’re making this platform available as a complete upper receiver kit including:

PSC-11™ upper receiver
Ejection port cover and hardware
Forward assist and hardware
Top- and side-charging systems
Full Mass JP Bolt Carrier
JP EnhancedBolt™ group (including bolt, cam pin, firing pin and firing pin retaining pin)

This kit assembles exactly like a standard forged upper with the simple addition of the side-charge handle, which slips into place as easily as a standard T-handle. If you can build an upper, you can build your own PSC-11 and tap the potential yourself.

NOTE: THE PSC-11 IS COMPATIBLE WITH ANY LOWER RECEIVER THAT WILL ACCEPT A STANDARD MIL-SPEC UPPER RECEIVER, BUT JP CANNOT GUARANTEE FUNCTION WITH ANY SPECIFIC LOWERS (OTHER THAN OUR OWN). IT IS THE END USER’S RESPONSIBLILITY TO VERIFY FINAL COMPATIBILITY.
