For those of you in the market for a new sort of micro conversion kit, consider the FAB Defense micro RONI Amplifiers, also known as FAB Defense AMPs.
These minimalistic micro conversion kits , made by FAB Defense, which has specialized in outfitting the Israeli military and law enforcement organizations for more than 60 years, has created a new generation of micro conversion kit platforms - similar to MCK and Micro RONI MCKs - but with more streamlined designs.
Here’s what they offer.
Easy Adjustments, No Adapter Required for Compatible Models
Unlike some other micro conversion kits and Micro RONI MCKs, FAB Defense’s AMPs are designed for easy, straightforward compatibility with a wide range of different handguns. One model is designed for maximum compatibility with numerous different handguns, with no adjustments needed, although small adapters are available in order to expand the compatibility.
For many handguns, however, no adapter is needed, making these perfect in lieu of other micro conversion kits that are model-specific - but offering the same benefits.
Another great thing about FAB Defense platforms is that they don’t require any tools. You can insert and lock a handgun in place with a single, snap-locking button mechanism. No handgun modification is needed, either.
A Compact Footprint with a Side-Folding Stock
Like other handgun conversion kits like the Micro RONI models, the FAB Defense AMP is super-compact, but it elevates this feature to an art form.
The FAB Defense AMP is a KPOS conversion system that sets the bar for compact design and minimalism. It has an adjustable stock that is also side-folding, enabling a precise match to the shooter while also minimizing the overall footprint. These conversion platforms can be easily stowed and concealed, in some ways much more easily than others.
This makes these effective as pistol-caliber carbines, but lighter, more compact, equally as stable, and easier to conceal.
An Open Upper Design
One unique aspect of FAB Defense AMP conversion platforms is that they feature an open upper design which is much more flexible with respect to slide-mounted sights and optics - as well as the use of the handgun’s factory sights.
It also keeps the slide free for easier access - which can be a bonus when you need to clear jams, manually cycle the action, or visually inspect or assess the gun.
For what it’s worth, it also serves to lighten the overall platform, which is only a bit more than 3 pounds - much lighter than most other PCCs, even with the handgun installed and loaded.
Multiple Attachment Points
Two more things shooters will appreciate about FAB Defense conversion kits. They feature an upper aluminum rail (in the Pro version) as well as an M-LOK rail system for a handguard.
The upper aluminum rail is perfect for mounting optics - although, as stated, you could also use your factory iron sights or mount an optic on the slide, whereas the M-LOK rail system of the handguard presents a multiplicity of opportunities for mounting shooting attachments.
This opens the door for the use of other MCK accessories, especially if they are M-LOK compatible. Outfitting your handgun with attachments is one of the big draws of a pistol conversion kit, and the FAB Defense AMP offers tons of room for expanding the platform with optics, slings, lights, saddle mounts, and much more.
General Durability
Polymer is great, but FAB Defense conversion kits go a step further. They sport a hybrid design from both polymer and high-strength anodized aluminum, which is lightweight, strong, corrosion-resistant, wear-resistant, and very low on maintenance requirements.
Don’t worry about the conversion kit. It’ll do just fine; spend whatever extra time you have to keep your handgun clean and in good working order.
Advantages of the FAB Defense AMP
Like other pistol conversion kits, there are numerous advantages associated with the FAB Defense AMP. Among these are as follows.
- No tools are needed, nor modifications to the handgun prior to installation.
- They are extremely lightweight and durable.
- They are easy to conceal.
- The folding stock offers much better recoil control and platform stability.
- There are numerous mounting points for shooting accessories and attachments.
- Most shooters can shoot more accurately and confidently with pistol conversion kits, even at extended ranges in excess of 100 yards.
- Pistol conversion kits enable faster, more accurate follow up shots.
This is just a snapshot into some of the main advantages of expanding the functionality of your handgun with a pistol conversion kit, though there are others in addition to these.
