HURRICANE BUTTERFLY

Description

Double side saddle munitions carrier with quick release picatinny rail mount.

Hurricane Butterfly has improved our proven 40mm side saddle launcher mounts, now offering more mounting options and user adaptability.

These new, patented mounts will allow operators to select the right configuration for their own individual needs. Currently offered in both single and double 37/40MM round carriage models, the side saddle will carry all common less-lethal munitions securely on the launcher and at the ready for quick reloads.

Facilitating both vertical or horizontal carriage on the launcher, the new and improved side saddle models allow the operator to choose a carrier setup for their individual needs and preference.

Hurricane Butterfly has designed the new side saddle carrier mounts to be retrofitted down the road, so if a department changes or upgrades launchers in the future the mounting system can evolve with emerging trends.

Because this 40mm munition carrier is designed for different mounting configurations, it can also be used in an array of other useful ways. By adding MOLLE hardware attachments, the carrier can now be quickly attached to the PALS webbing of an outer tactical vest. This is great for quick reloads and increased on-person load carriage, particularly for tactical officers.

Additionally, the carrier can also be set up with belt attachment hardware, so additional 40mm munitions can be quickly secured and carried on a duty belt. With more departments nationwide issuing patrolmen 40mm less-lethal launchers for their patrol units, this is a simple and effective upgrade option.

Our 40mm side saddles are also adjustable for tension, to control the amount of retention desired for the munitions carried and to accommodate different brands of less-lethal 40mm. We advise individual users to experiment with the side saddle tension prior to deploying it, to find the proper amount of desired retention for the munitions being used.

Hurricane Butterfly is proud of the evolution of our patented design, and of the Side Saddle’s long proven track record with many law enforcement agencies nationwide. We encourage departments to contact us directly with your agency’s unique needs, so that we can work with you to determine a system that will work best. Please contact us directly for department procurement quotes for both our side saddles, and all less lethal 40mm munitions.

INSTRUCTIONS:

• The side saddle carrier can be mounted vertically or horizontally on the launcher. Remove the mounting screws and screw posts from the carrier where it meets the barrel clamp, rotate the carrier to the desired orientation, and then reinstall the screws and screw posts using the newly selected holes. Alternately, the mount can be removed and replaced with MOLLE mount or belt mount hardware for on-person carriage.

• Retention of the 40mm munitions can be adjusted by tightening or loosening the front screw on the face of side saddle. We recommend the user spends the time to adjust this to the preferred level of tension for the particular round being used.

• To mount the carrier to a barrel, loosen the barrel clamp screws and slide the sidesaddle over the barrel. Please note if your launcher has a front vertical grip, it may need to be temporarily removed to achieve the desired placement of the sidesaddle. The vertical grip can then be reinstalled after the side saddle is mounted. Tighten the barrel clamp screws so that the sidesaddle does not rotate or move.
