![]() It’s not exactly an AIWB configuration anymore. The Flux Raider is, of course, bigger than your standard pistol, but smaller than most subguns. My guess is that rear portion is important for overall strength and durability. Sadly you can’t use slide-mounted optics with the Flux Raider, which makes the whole thing a bit taller than necessary. You can also look through it to use your iron sights. That raised rear hoop on the rear of he chassis features a rail for optics. Yet the slide is fully encapsulated at the rear by the Flux Raider and can’t pop you in the mouth, even though it looks like it might. That little rod deploys the spring loaded brace. The length of pull is fairly short, and if you were to…I don’t know…misuse it somehow, your face feels close to the slide. It’s not a super-supportive brace like the SBA3, but it works. The Flux Raider’s brace is a curved piece of polymer that wraps around the arm and conforms to it. That rod also doubles as a means to activate the slide lock. It’s super fast and can be done with one hand. The thumb can easily reach this rod and, when pressed, it deploys your brace with a spring-loaded snap. There’s also have a rod sticking up and out on the right-hand side. After some practice, though, I looked a lot less dumb more often. Sometimes it leaves you there looking dumb until you remember what you are supposed to be doing. This setup allows for very rapid mag changes with a little practice. When fully pressed, this button releases the magazine in the gun and the magazine in the spare magazine holder. This little guy drops both the magazine in the gun and the mag in the holder. Finally, behind the spare mag holder, there’s another button at the bottom. Second, on the left-hand side, you have a tab you press inwards. First, you have a button on the right-hand side below and in front of the trigger. When you need to reload, you have three different means to do so. Without a holster protecting the trigger, you need some form of safety, especially if you decide to sling it (there’s a QD cup) or use the Flux Raider’s special holster. Since the whole outfit doesn’t exactly drop into a holster, the manual safety is a must. ![]() A manual safety is a bit of a must have on this setup. The Flux Raider also implements a manual, ambidextrous safety positioned right behind the trigger. That’s because it’s a magazine holder that allows you to carry a spare magazine in the Flux Raider. It even says ‘Not a VFG’ right on it (for our friends at the ATF). ![]() Forward of the main grip, you get something that’s not a vertical forward grip. The grip module portion is the full-sized length for SIG P320s, so you have to use 17 or 21-round magazines.
