New M14 Gas Plug

We just rolled out an M14 gas plug that is superior to the G.I. Issue M14 gas plug. This product is made from 17-4 stainless steel. The G.I. Issue version we are improving was made from 416 stainless by the military, and are not that great.

Our M14 gas plug is double heat treated and salt bath nitrated. The ones in the picture are as machined to show the high quality of workmanship, the black nitrate hides that. I wanted you to see it before we turn them black so you can appreciate the high quality.

We have these in stock now. Reply to this email if you want some or call us at (480) 964-1818. You can also email my personal at smithent@phxcoxmail.com.

Do you have our M14 Warfighter Gas System?

Did you know you can upgrade your M14 or M1A without sending it into our shop?

That's right.  Our M14 Warfighter Gas System can be done at the user level.

What is it? What does it come with?

The “Warfighter” gas system includes our M80HT Gas Cylinder, our SBR Hard Chrome Piston, and our M80HT Standard Gas Plug.

These parts are the same ones that come standard on the Crazy Horse rifles, and have been combat-proven by 2ID, 10th MTN, 4th ID, 101st ABN as well as many others.

The spindle valve is made out of 17-4 stainless steel and heat treated and then salt bath nitrited to our specifications. So it is basically double-heat treated. It doesn't get any better than that!

The standard GI version is just stainless and moderately heat treated. Ours is impervious to corrosion and erosion, and will most likely last a lifetime.

Our gas system may improve accuracy. The design is mainly for low maintenance and high reliability. In combat, nobody has time to do any gas cylinder maintenance for the navy.

We developed this for Crane Naval Surface Warfare, who field equipment to the Navy Seals. It was developed for the MK14 MOD 0, MOD 1, and MOD 2.

Our piston is 440 cutlery steel. It is heat treated to 58 Rockwell (+/-). It has been hard chromed to our specifications and ground to a number 9 finish on the major diameter, which is like glass.

The grooves on our piston have a full radius bottom, instead of square like the GI issue version. That way you can wipe the carbon out easier.

The gas plug and gas cylinder are made from stainless steel and double heat treated.

If you want to buy it, you can do so on our website.

Semper Fi,

P.S. Don't get caught with a 2nd-rate gas system. Upgrade yours today so you won't have any problems.

New exclusive M14 Barrel

I have some breaking M14 product news.

We have partnered with Hart Barrels to bring a new medium weight 416 stainless barrel to the M14. It is available in the .260 Remington version and the .308 version. All barrels are made to Smith Enterprise's proprietary specifications.

Our .308 barrel is our new 1 turn in 10 with 5 groove left hand twist exclusively for Smith Enterprise from Hart Barrels. The barrels will be marked "SMITH&HART".

We are the only ones with a .260 Remington version out there.

Call (480) 964-1818 for pricing or email here if you want one.

Hart Barrels are extremely well-made, hand lapped after they are rifled and stress relieved. They are stress relieved 3 times in the process of manufacture.

We are shooting half inch groups at 100 yards or less using a Sage International stock and scope. That is unheard of for a gas gun to do that consistently all the time. Go here to see our video of us test-firing the .260 Remington version.

We are going to offer them salt bath nitrided to my specification or just in the dull shark-skin gray stainless color.

Again call the shop 480-964-1818 or email me here and we will get you taken care of.

Thanks,

Ron Smith

Arizona Law Enforcement Official Tests Smith Enterprise Flash Hider & Sound Suppressor

An Arizona Law Enforcement Official who we cannot name conducted a night fire test last Friday. This is what he had to say:

"The first image is an AK Krink SBR chambered in 5.56 mm. The second image is a standard Romanian Guard's AK chambered in 7.62 x39 with a Smith sound Suppressor. (100% reliable and very quiet.) The third image is the same AK with a Smith Enterprise Vortex Flash Hider. The vortex remains the best flash suppressor I have ever tested. I have tested the Vortex on M1As, AR15, AR10 and now the AK 47."

This is the same AK with a Smith Vortex Flash Hider:

Ron Smith Response to Bump Stock Ban Email

I wrote an email yesterday about the Bump Stock Ban and the Las Vegas shooting.

I don't know how this offended anyone, we do believe this was a tragedy, as all the shootings are a tragedy.

But some people had some issues when we mentioned that it was a good thing the nutjob in Las Vegas wasn't using our Vortex Flash Hider.

We were not joking about that. We can't understand why a small few would be offended by something like this.

If people are going to get bothered about something start getting bothered about the 91 people a day who die from opioid overdoses and the 64,000 who died last year from that.

Or the 22 veterans who are committing suicide every day because they can't get the care or support they need. Or the fact that our do-nothing Congress wants to push a bump-stock ban at a time when we are trillions of dollars in debt, we are being flooded with illegals and MS-13 gangs, and nobody can afford health care.

If some are going to get their panties bunched up, at least focus on the right things.

And whether people like it or not, the Smith Enterprise Flash Hider is the best flash hider known to man. We are not ashamed by this FACT.

Shoot 'em in the face,
Ron

P.S. Thanks to all who have stood by us over the years, I always remember those who stay with us.

World Class Chinese M14 Products

Just wanted to send you a quick update on some things we have been working on.

I am getting old and I don't know how much longer I can do this. These ideas and products of mine will be available as long as I still have a fight in me.

Chinese M14 Gas Lock

For the Polytech 305 we have the Dovetail gas lock front sight and the hooded front sight. The Part Number is 2011-305 for the 22 inch barrel. The Part Number is 2000-M305 for the Direct Connect. The hooded gas lock Part Number is 2012-305. These can be adjusted for 18-22 inch barrel. Call the shop if you need one (480) 964-1818 as these aren't on the website yet.

Chinese M14 Trigger Jobs

We do trigger jobs on the Chinese M14s as well. We upgrade the hammer springs and the pins. We also reparkerize. The pull is 4-4.5 lbs. and optimized for accuracy.

SEI Uses DOD Aperture Cards

This is Ron holding a stack of Department of Defense M14 Aperture Cards (Microfiche) with all of the original prints of the different M14 parts. At SEI, we have the highest standard of excellence for our products. We have a print of every nut, screw and bolt for the M14, up to and including the stock print. Smith Enterprise, as far as we know, is the only one in the country with a set of these type of prints. This is what we use. Most people don't realize just how rare and coveted these cards are. We want our customers to know. We don't reverse engineer anything, nor do we use copies of copies of DoD prints. Our customers can rest assured that we only use the real deal for our M14 parts.

Press Release: Smith Enterprise Shot Show - Booth 6410

Tempe, AZ

Smith Enterprise will be at the Shot Show in full force this January (Booth 6410).  Ron Smith and his staff will be there ready to talk the latest and greatest sound suppressor, flash suppression, AR15, and M14 innovations.  The following staff will be there eager to talk to visitors:
John Bainer (master armorer and retired 27 year Marine M14 match grade rifle-builder)

Andy Horton (master armorer and former infantryman)

Jack Rosfeld (armorer and former combat medic)

All new product lines will be present to include the new 17-4 Stainless Muzzle Brake for the M4, M16, and AR15 (PN 1002-SS-17-4) that is sound suppressor capable.  Also debuting is a new 17-4 Stainless Steel Muzzle Brake for the AR10 (PN 1002-RR-17-4) that will fit any rifle with a 5/8 x 24 thread.

The new and improved quick disconnect bipod will be there.  The material has been changed to give it more durability and longevity.  The design has been tweaked for optimum weight and functionality.  Note: the 82nd Airborne (1-505th) will be placing an order for this bipod now that it passed a 30 day field test at Fort Bragg, NC.

SEI will have new, never seen before, M14 muzzle brakes that will be allowed in the NRA National Matches and the Civilian Marksmanship Program Matches.  It will have the same overall length as a GI flash hider and the same diameter of the GI flash hider, but with the Smith Enterprise muzzle brake pattern that everyone is familiar with.  This brake reduces felt recoil and muzzle climb.  It qualifies for match competition, which has never been done before by Smith Enterprise.  The brake has SEI/MATCH engraved on the bottom side of the brake.  It is 2 pieces screwed together made from bar stock and then is salt bath nitrited to pass the Navy's salt fog test.  Retail price is $150.

SEI will have some really nice M14s on display as well.  This includes the Smith Enterprise version of the M14 EBR and the Smith Enterprise version of the MK14 MOD 2.

SEI will have the newest version of the Wind Talker Sound Suppressor boasting an easier disassembly and also an increased number of baffles which provide an optimal amount of sound suppression.

There will be M16 hard chrome bolt carriers marked SEI 3A5E1 (military Cage Code) on display.

The G6A3 Vortex flash hider will be on display for the first time at a Shot Show.

Smith Enterprise encourages everyone to come to the booth to talk M14, AR15, AR10, sound suppressors, muzzle brakes, and flash hiders.

SEI Uses Epoxy Mounts for Recievers Setting Industry Standard

Here is an email from Jack (an SEI employee) to Anthony from Croc's Gun Shop.  It is pretty enlightening to see this one of many industry standards that SEI has started.

Anthony,

I was able to get some pictures done and edited for you to send out in your newsletter.

These are the cross sections of our receiver parts mounted in epoxy. These are samples that were done form last year’s batch. These mounts check the accuracy of our case depth and core hardness. There is no industry SOP as to when or how often this should be done, it is determined by Ron. Since perfecting the heat treatment process on his receivers in 1985, Ron has periodically sent out receivers from several different batches to get tested, just to assure that they have been staying within his heat treating guidelines. Ron doesn’t think that there is any other manufacturer out there that goes to the same lengths of quality control for their heat treatment. Material 8620 is very predictable in heat treat. The heat treat processes for the M14 in 1957 were far different than they are today, due in large to EPA restrictions. We have found that on de-milled M14 Receivers, that core hardness is as high as 45, which is extreme, with case depth as much as .0020. With today’s technology, it is much easier to control and predict the outcome of a heat treat on a given material than it was back then. We know that the USGI M14 Receiver when de-milled, were sometimes hit on the op-rod side middle with some type of hammer blow which broke them. The receiver would withstand a great deal of compression, but lateral strikes could not be tolerated very well.

SEI Gives $2,000 to Secret Witness to Help Catch Wild Mustang Murderers

As reported on our Facebook page, SEI was made aware of a certain poacher near Carson City, NV who killed two or more wild mustangs just for the sport of it.  Shooting these beautiful animals is cruel and attacks at the very heart of what makes Nevada a beautiful state.

In response to the outrage we felt, Ron Smith and Sonja decided to give $2,000 to Secret Witness, whose primary function is to catch and prosecute people who hurt wild mustangs.

Ron wanted to make clear to everyone he does not want credit for this.  The reason he is posted it is to encourage others to give to Secret Witness if they are as upset about these murders as he is.

To give to Secret Witness to bring these poachers to justice, you can go to their website and make a donation.  If you email them and say you are donating and that you want to bring these poachers to justice it will give them more feedback to help our cause.  Thanks a lot.

Lawsuit Update - SEI's Response to Motion to Dismiss

Here is an update on our lawsuit against the person who posted unsubstantiated lies about our products.  You will notice some good info about our side of the story in this response to the plaintiff's Motion to Dismiss.  There 95 good pages that are worth looking through if you have the time.  SEI stands by our products and won't let individuals blatantly lie about them.

M14 Receiver Update



This is just a peek at what we are up to.  Notice the bar stock in the steel tub - that is what we start with to make receivers.  That is why it takes a long time to get these built.  We make our receivers from bar stock, which no one else is doing for M14s (to our knowledge).  Notice the two receivers with larger thread gauges.  One is for pre heat treat and the other is for post heat treat.  We are the only company with these type of gauges for this process.

Thanks for sticking with us as we get all these M14 receivers built.  We are making great progress.

Product Disparagement Update from Croc

 

 

Below is a response our M14 receiver dealer (Croc's Gun Shop) put out to one of its customers who canceled their M14 receiver order due to a recent lawsuit filed by SEI against a gentleman for product disparagement.  We think it is a pretty well-written letter worth sharing and reading.

Dear Customer,

Thank you for the honest reply.

It is unfortunate that you make this decision without having all of the facts/information on the matter. The story you get on the forums is biased, half the story at best and represents an emotional and less than factual view of what has and is really happening. Smith Enterprise Inc. has a right to protect their good name against product disparagement. This is an unfair business practice and can be detrimental to a small business. The heat treatment issue remarks at the center of this matter are false, misleading and damaging. Our business is being damaged incrementally by people such as yourself who believe without any consideration whatsoever that everything that they read on the forums is true and posted by sane people. Take for example your cancellation and your reasons for doing so. You have been unduly influenced by the emotionalism and the irrational comments that are being made on and around this matter.

The comments that are made online in most cases are not factual and are frivolous in nature. They range from absurd arguments about the freedom of speech to personal attacks on the character of Ron Smith and or his employees. What you must remember is that Smith Enterprise Inc. is a leader in product development, they make a fine line of exceptional, high quality products and that these facts have not changed. Their reputation for quality and their expertise is what you relied on when making your decision to purchase one of their receivers from our company.

Our Congress has seen fit to regulate product disparagement and to make the person(s) engaging in product disparagement responsible for their actions and the losses caused by their disparagement. This protection is based upon fairness, ethics and good legal principles, it is afforded to all citizens equally. You need to recognize that Smith Enterprise Inc. has a right to protect themselves from this form of unfair and reckless behavior as it is their reputation and livelihood that is being harmed. Our company is also suffering continued losses because of the comments that were made and your cancellation request is just another one of those losses. The person who made these disparaging statements online has been given every opportunity to retract their false statements to date, to admit that they were false or expose their source of false information. All without having to make good on any of the financial damages that they have caused so far. Smith Enterprise Inc. from the beginning of this matter has offered an easy and respectable way out of this situation that would have ended the matter promptly.

If you were or are a small businessman I believe you should be able to understand that damage to a reputation and financial losses are difficult if not impossible to absorb and that to tolerate this form of reckless indifference to our businesses and the families that we support is not something that should be taken lightly or left unattended.

You should stand with Smith Enterprise in this matter instead of supporting the irrational notions of a very small handful of people who it would seem believe mistakenly in some self concocted Right to cause damage to others without any responsibility taken. Please reconsider this matter.

Kind regards,
Anthony

Smith Enterprise Awarded Contract for 400 Vortexes for the Navy Seals

Tempe, AZ

Smith Enterprise received a purchase order from the Navy Seals for 400 each of their premium Vortex Flash Hiders for the MK48 Machine Gun.  The MK48 Vortex is Sound Suppressor capable and blocks over 95% of the flash.  The version of the Vortex purchased by the Navy Seals is the G6A3 flash hider that includes the new external ten-pitch radial bottom helical grooves, which aid in the easy removal of the Wind Talker Sound Suppressor.
 

The contract (H92240-13-P-0250) awarded was the first contract award after many years of rigorous testing of the MK48 Vortex Flash Hider by Crane Naval Surface Warfare Center.  Crane was so impressed with the MK48, it awarded Smith Enterprise a National Stock Number (1005-01-600-8577) and also safety certified the device.  Crane Naval Surface Warfare Center is the contracting division for the Navy Seals.

Crane’s original intent was to approve the best flash hider that will later be used as a mounting platform for Smith Enterprise MK48 Wind Talker Sound Suppressor.  Smith Enterprise previously bid on a Sound Suppressor solicitation for the MK48 in 2010 and was beat by FN, who has no Sound Suppressor experience.  FN has yet to produce its first Sound Suppressor for the Navy and is still attempting to make an integral barrel Sound Suppressor – something that the military has tried to make for decades without success.  Smith Enterprise is hopeful that the Navy Seals see the value in Smith’s products and will follow up with a Sound Suppressor purchase order.  The Smith Enterprise Sound Suppressor for the MK48 is complete with testing and is ready for delivery.

Smith Enterprise also makes a Blank Firing Adapter for the MK48 Machine Gun, which is a unique advantage for the Navy Seals should they want to train with blanks.

The Flash Hiders, Sound Suppressors, and BFAs can all be purchased on GSA Schedule GS-07F-0144X.

Smith Enterprise Upgrades Battle-Worn Sound Suppressors for Silver Star Recipient in the 82nd Airborne

 

Tempe, AZ

Smith Enterprise, Inc received a phone call from Silver Star recipient 1SG Michael Onstine of the 2-505^th PIR (Parachute Infantry Regiment) in June of this year.  He told Smith Enterprise, Inc. that he had in his possession some battle-worn Wind Talker Sound Suppressors made by Smith Enterprise from 2004 and wondered if there was anything Smith Enterprise could do to help clean them up.  Not only did Smith Enterprise clean them up, but they replaced all of the baffles inside with the new SEI Cone Baffle system as well as replace the coupler, the end cap, and the Vortex flash hider it mounts on.  Smith also gave the suppressors a new paint job to MILSPEC standards.

The only thing remaining on the original Sound Suppressor was the tube itself.  Everything else got replaced.  1SG Onstine and his men were pleased to have the four Sound Suppressor back in mint condition with the latest upgrades.

The Sound Suppressors were originally sent to the 2^nd Infantry Division (2 ID) in Korea back in 2004.  At that time the 2 ID ordered a total of 110 M14 Wind Talker Sound Suppressors along with 110 of Smith’s M14 Crazy Horse upgrade kit which consisted of Smith Vortex Flash Hiders, mounts, rails, bipods, scope rings, gas lock front sites, upgraded heat treated barrels, extended bolt stop, and a long list of other parts.  Right after the upgraded Crazy Horse rifles arrived in Korea, the 2 ID deployed to Iraq.  Those suppressors stayed in Iraq transferring from unit to unit until the 2-505^th PIR redeployed this past year.  That is when Smith got the call from 1SG Onstine with the 2-505^th.

The 2-505^th PIR is part of the elite 82^nd Airborne Division out of Fort Bragg, NC.  The 82^nd Airborne is one of the main light infantry divisions in the US Army with an ongoing mission to rapidly deploy anywhere in the world at a moment’s notice.  The 82^nd Airborne also conducts rotations overseas as part of Operation Iraqi Freedom.  It was during one of these rotations where 1SG Onstine received the Silver Star.  1SG Onstine received the Silver Star for valor during Operation RUSTUM as part of Operation IRAQ FREEDOM near Baghdad, Iraq in 2007.  1SG Onstine braved through multiple fire fights while severely wounded ensuring his men got out safely before he allowed himself to be evacuated.  He also acted bravely and selflessly multiple times to ensure his platoon escaped against overwhelming enemy numbers.  You can read more about 1SG Onstine here at MilitaryTimes.com.

When Ron Smith, President of Smith Enterprise was asked about this he stated, “This is a no brainer.  For what 1SG Onstine did for his men and this country, the LEAST we could do was get their suppressors upgraded for them.  These Sound Suppressors they have are quite the find.  Imagine how many battles they went through over the last 9 years?  There must have easily been tens of thousands of rounds fired through them and many of fine fighting men must have taken these suppressors on and off their rifles over the years.  They were in as good a shape as when we first sent them off, just needed to have the carbon cleaned off.  We wanted 1SG and his men to have our new light weight coupler, our new baffles, our new end cap, and our new Vortex.  We want these heroes to have the best we have to offer them.”

Smith Enterprise currently sells the Wind Talker Sound Suppressor to both the military and civilian markets.  Smith Enterprise also sells the Vortex Flash Hider, the Good Iron Muzzle Brake, M14 Accessories, AR15 Wrench, and several other weapon accessories and upgrades.

Smith Enterprise is also available on the Smith Enterprise, Inc. Facebook, Smith Enterprise, Inc. Twitter, Smith Enterprise, Inc. Youtube, Smith Enterprise, Inc. Googe Plus, and Smith Enterprise, Inc. Blog.

Smith Enterprise Releases an Improved Flash Hider Model for the M14

M14 Flash Hider

Smith Enterprise is rolling out with a new M14 flash hider model called the G6A3 M14 Vortex Flash Hider.  The flash hider consists of an external thread designed to mitigate carbon buildup when a Wind Talker sound suppressor is installed.  With these new external flash hider threads, the user can easily unscrew the Wind Talker sound suppressor with ease – even after thousands of rounds have been fired.

While Smith Enterprise already makes an AR15 flash hider with an external thread feature for its AR15 flash hider model (also compatible with the M16 and M4).  Applying this flash hider technology to the M14 is the next step.  Smith Enterprise is the leading provider of M14 upgrades in the country, and a quick search on Google shows that Smith Enterprise makes the best flash hider.  Smith Enterprise makes mounts, bipods, scope rings, flash hiders, muzzle brakes, sound suppressors, slings, front sights, rear sights, trigger assemblies, cheek pads, bolt stops, and several other premium parts for theM14.

When Ron Smith was asked about this new product, he stated: “This is just the beginning.  We have many more innovations to come.  We have new technologies for flash hiders, sound suppressors, and other accessories.  This M14 improvement is important right now because so many people are interested in M14s and we want to take care of our customers.”

Smith Enterprise also rebuilds M14 rifles into the “M14Crazy Horse”.  The upgrade features a multitude of changes and upgrades making an already good rifle into a premium collector’s item that is very accurate and lasts a lifetime.  The new Crazy Horse builds will include the G6A3 M14 Vortex Flash Hider model.  Customers can still select the old G6A2 model if they prefer.

Smith Enterprise will extend this new G6A3 external thread flash hider technology to all its Vortex flash hider models eventually, but not until they are ready for release.

Smith Enterprise Stands with the Law Abiding Citizens of New Jersey Against Gov Christie's Gun Control Laws

Smith Enterprise has been halting sales of Smith’s products to state and local law enforcement agencies in states pushing for unconstitutional firearms laws such as New York, Connecticut, Colorado, California and Maryland. The latest is the State of New Jersey which has at least 20 anti-gun proposals floating through both houses of the State Legislature. The 21 bills raised in the House are now in the Senate where they may be passed into law as part of Governor Christie's "50 common sense gun restrictions"..

Smith Enterprise will not support the so-called law makers who are rolling out these measures and if enacted will cease selling their products to law enforcement and government agencies based in New Jersey.

SEI's President had this to say: "Once again another Anti-Gun State Government has decided that their current draconian gun laws are not restrictive enough and is trying to further encroach on the Second Amendment rights of its citizens. These laws do not prevent crime as they only affect the law-abiding gun owner and not the common criminal. Witness the two terrorists that wreaked havoc on Boston last week: they did not have the required state and local permits for the firearms they used to attack police officers after they were found out and were fleeing. The only thing the gun grabbers can come up with are more laws to give an illusion that they are doing something. 

New Jersey is looking to outlaw 50 caliber rifles, which are not used in crime, but by target shooters. They want to outlaw most standard types of ammunition. If these bills pass both houses of the Garden State's legislature and are signed into law by Governor Chris Christie, then New Jersey state agencies can add themselves to the list of rogue states that will not be allowed to purchase parts from Smith Enterprise."
 
In February, the New Jersey State Assembly passed 21 pieces of anti-gun legislation that are now in the state Senate and can be heard at any time. 

Below are brief descriptions of these anti-gun bills passed in the New Jersey State Assembly:

Assembly Bill 588 (Spencer / Coutinho / Deignan) – prohibits possession of commonly owned ammunition.
Assembly Bill 1116 (Fuentes / Spencer) – establishes 180-day prohibition on purchase of handgun for individuals who fail to report loss or theft of firearm.
Assembly Bill 1329 (Greenwald / Quijano / Coutinho) – reduces the maximum capacity of ammunition magazines to ten rounds.
Assembly Bill 1387 (Wilson / Johnson) – permits municipalities to establish “weapon free zones” around schools and other public facilities.
Assembly Bill 3510 (Johnson / Vainieri Huttle) – requires proof of firearms safety training as a condition for issuance of firearms purchaser identification cards and permits to purchase handguns.
Assembly Bill 3645 (Greenwald / Eustace / Mosquera) - requires ammunition sales and transfers be conducted as face-to-face transactions.
Assembly Bill 3646 (Greenwald) - establishes a regulatory system to govern the sale and transfer of ammunition.
Assembly Bill 3659 (Barnes, III / Johnson) - revises the state's definition of a destructive device to include certain firearms of 50 caliber or greater.
Assembly Bill 3666 (Cryan / O’Donnell / Jasey) - prohibits mail order, internet, telephone and any other anonymous method of ammunition sale or transfer in New Jersey.
Assembly Bill 3668 (Jasey / McKeon / Cryan) - prohibits investment by state pension and annuity funds in companies manufacturing, importing and selling “assault firearms” for civilian use.
Assembly Bill 3687 (Stender / Fuentes) - disqualifies persons named on federal Terrorist Watchlist from obtaining a state firearms identification card or permit to purchase handgun.
