Grinnell, Iowa– July 2024– VKTR Industries, a manufacturer of premier short-stroke piston rifles and associated accessories, is proud to announce the addition of their new Direct Impingement Bolt Carrier Group to the product lineup.
See New Gun Accessory News on The Gun Bulletin!
The VKTR Direct Impingement Bolt Carrier Group has several new design technologies that help correct the legacy-designed cam path found in all AR Bolt Carrier Groups.
“By correcting the legacy cam path from 20.7 degrees to 22.5 degrees, we delay unlocking by almost 2 degrees,” says Eric Luley, National Sales Manager. “While adding almost 2 degrees of rotation we induce dwell which reduces the residual chamber pressure and allows the cartridge to fully release from the chamber wall, easing extraction – particularly in short-barreled applications.”
The long advanced cam path results in a flatter shooting platform with less perceived recoil, smoother unlocking, and reduced muzzle rise. Additionally, the cam pin doesn’t contact the upper sidewall creating wear marks.
“This is the same technology that we have been using in our VK-1 piston system, scaled to allow for use in standard direct impingement rifles.” Added Luley.
In addition to the advanced cam path, all BCGs are plated with a thin, dense chrome and include the VKTR patented Precision Cam Pin.
These new Bolt Carrier Groups are currently in stock on their website and will be in all stocking dealers soon. For dealers, they will also be available through one of our main distributors, Sports South, Zanders, Kinseys, and Amchar.
VKTR Industries encourages our customers, dealers, and distributors to check out our website www.vktrind.com for more information.
