HOW WE GOT HERE
Where We're Going
Jason and the team at Backup Tactical have lots of new ideas they are working on and you can expect to see some exciting new Threaded Barrels and Firearm Accessories from them very soon! Stay tuned and enjoy.
Backup Tactical recently introduced their “first to market” Glock 48 Threaded Barrel at the end of 2019. To date, Backup Tactical is the ONLY manufacturer in the firearms industry producing this specialized barrel for Glock’s Slim-Line Glock 48 pistol.
Jason’s consulting with Industry Engineers and Silencer Manufacturers really paid off with this project. The Glock 48 presented a significant challenge because the Glock 48 barrel is indeed slim! So slim, that the barrel’s diameter is too small to machine a shoulder on the barrel to stop the silencer from screwing on too far.
Shooting a barrel that protrudes into the baffle stack will very quickly erode the baffles of the silencer and the barrel. Instead of taking the easy way out with a screw-on shoulder, Jason and his engineers figured out a way to machine the barrel so it would shoulder on the piston of all the most popular modern silencers.
The Glock 48 Threaded Barrels has been a best-seller since the day it was introduced.
STILL HUNGRY FOR MORE?
