Rooftop Weekly Update & Question Thread | Tuesday, 19 May 2026

Howdy, gang!

This week's update will be kinda slow. It's partially the reason why we didn't have one last week.

As always, thank you so much for y'alls love and support! Fire away with any new questions!

Cheers,

Sol

Criterion
From Criterion we have two new barrel offerings coming. They are both 12.5" barrels with Midlength Gas systems on them:

These are something that we worked with Criterion on for a fairly lengthy amount of time. I'm super excited for these. The waitlists are now active and can be joined. I'm expecting these in hopefully July/August timeframe.

Allen Engineering
We're starting to stock most of their catalog. To start, we currently have some AEM5K and AEM5-30 suppressors on hand and ready to ship.

Radian
Some of the G43X and G48 Anchor Magwells have arrived. We have Gen6 Afterburners and Ramjets backordered without an ETA.

HUXWRX
They've been on backorder for a long time, but they're finally here. We have 5.56/6ARC flash hiders threaded in 5/8x24. These are great for the upcoming 12.5 Criterion HBARs we have, but also currently pre-existing 5.56 barrels with 5/8x24 muzzle threads.

MRP & MWS Barrel Discounts & Sales :)

Howdy, y'all!

We have a few older/discontinued barrels and a few barrels that we're overstocked on. We're slashing the prices on them :)

14.5" 5.56 Carbine Gas Barrel @ $349 - This is an older, discontinued model. This would technically be the clone-correct barrel for a 1st NZ SAS Regiment clone build.

16" 300BLK Pistol Gas Barrel @ $349 - These are a good candidate to be used for a future 300BLK build. They're cheap enough to be chopped to any barrel length you desire by u/unclemoak.

8" 5.56 Pistol Gas Barrel @ $299 - These.. well.. they're for whatever PDW or meme build you want.

12.5" 6.8SPC Carbine Gas Barrel @ $359 - These are a discontinued barrel. Once these are gone, they're never coming back.

16" 6.8SPC Piston Barrel @ $439 - These are also a discontinued barrel. Once these are gone, they're also never coming back.

16"MWS Lightweight Stainless .308 Barrel @ $499 - We're flat out just overstocked on these. For $499, this is a smoking deal. Listed MAP price is usually $877.95 per.

I appreciate y'all and your continued support! Have a great weekend :)

Cheers,

Sol

Rooftop Weekly Update & Question Thread | Thursday, 7 May 2026

Surefire
Somewhat of a lot to unpack here. The first wave of SOCOM556-RC4 and SOCOM556-MINI4 suppressors have arrived in FDE.

We also have some of just the KF2 Turbo light heads. This is a good option if you already have a 18350/18650 light body that you'd like to stick a new head on.

New muzzle devices. We now have Surefire brakes for 6mm ARC. These are threaded in 5/8x24, but fit the smaller pattern suppressors -- which means you can use them on 5.56 barrels threaded in 5/8x24 with a 5.56 suppressor.

HK
We have some Surefire SOCOM MP7 flash hiders. These have been super hard to come by and hard to get. Complete with Rocksett and shim set.

VP9CC magazines have made their way into the system and are shipping. The pistols themselves are backordered without an ETA.

Trijicon
We now stock the SRO in an anodized Coyote Brown color. Available in 1, 2.5 and 5MOA dot sizes :)

Magpul
The PRS Lite stock, DT Carbine stock and Mossberg stock have been added to the site.

Sons of Liberty
11.5" M4 L89 pistols are on hand. 14.5" MK1 RECCE rifles are on the way.

18" LRF Broadsword ARCA SPRs in Gray and FDE just arrived. The same model, but in pinned 14.5" will hit the site in Gray and FDE today or tomorrow.

Howdy, gang!

As always, thank you so much for y'alls love and patronage. Fire away with your questions!

OD Green USP .45s & 2026 Special Offerings
Two years ago, we did a run of OD Green USPs in 9mm. This year, we're doing a run of OD Green USPs in .45ACP. These pistols are slated to arrive in September. Those product listings and waitlists are available now: Full Size, Tactical and Expert

HK is also releasing some special offerings this year, including FDE HK45s and HK45Cs in standard and Tactical models. The P30 and P30L Tactical is a first time debut as well.

Glock
We have some Gen6 pistols with standard and COA optic configurations on the way.

Primatia
The extended slide stops have now made their way back onto the site and are shipping.

Forward Controls Design
Another new product launch is FCD's Trijicon RMR and SRO mounting plate for Gen6 Glocks. They're on the way and should arrive soon. The waitlist can be found, here.

Shotgun Stuff
We're slowing building out the shotgun section of the site. Are there any product recommendations that y'all would have for this category?

Tungsten Prices & Buffers
The prices of buffers have gone wild. This is due to the prices of tungsten fluctuating. This is more just a general service announcement explaining why the massive price increase across the board for buffers.
