#Battle arms development workhorse review full
It has radiused edges on the metal butt, which imparts more psi on one’s shoulder than a full flat contact area would. The fixed lightweight stock may give one pause at first glance. Stickers, a certificate of authenticity and Allen keys for the handguard are included as well. The OIP2 comes with one 20rnd OIP-logoed Okay Industries magazine and a Battle Arms PVC patch. The plastic hard case itself is well laid out, with custom cut foam inserts for the rifle, magazines, and included boresnake. Sure, 3.8lbs is noticeable in a handgun case when dealing with large semiautos or revolvers, but distributed through a rifle case, it is hardly noticeable. I would have to double check the case just to make sure a gun was in there. The first thing my FFL said to me when I came to pick up the rifle was “I promise you, there’s a gun in that case, even if it doesn’t feel like it.” This came to be my experience several times over the course of many months in handling this rifle. The rifle is in a category of light that beggars belief. When I describe this rifle as “ultralight”, there is no hyperbole.
Manufacturer: Battle Arms Development, Inc.The technology and engineering that foes into the OIP® Ultralight Rifle bring forth the nex evolution of the AR platform. The patented, lightweight 7075-T6 billetĪluminum receivers are not simply skeletonized and hollowed out but is carefully engineered with structuralĬonsideration. While eliminating the unnecessary weight of the rail elsewhere. The rifle was designed toīe an optics ready carbine, providing a single stretch of Picatinny rail in the optimal spot for a red dot sight A new titanium billet CNC machined bolt catch and a lightweight single sideĬlutch™ charging handle are just a couple more of the new upgrades to the OIP®. New in Gen 2 is the user-configurable M-LOK carbon fiber handguard and a carbon-fiber pistol grip that Run reliably even in fully-automatic fire, not just semi-auto. 22LR and shooting so flat that it can be fired single-handed. OIP® defies what logic would dictate from a lightweight rifle with recoilĪkin to a. It is balanced with a custom mid-length gas system and a specially designed The OIP® utilizes a patented OIP® buffer system in conjunction with a lightweight titanium bolt carrier withĪrmorTi™ finish for durability. Duly impressed, I decided to save up for an OIP 2 rifle of my own. Personally, I couldn’t believe both the light (3.8lbs) weight of the OIP2 rifle and the fact that the rifle didn’t have a corresponding increase in recoil. It’s one thing to read press releases, it’s another thing entirely to test fire an example of a gun. My first exposure to Battle Arms Development’s OIP project was at SHOT 2019.
