TRADITION OF EXCELLENCELeaders live to a higher standard. That’s why we make sure every IRAC replica weapon lives up to 40 years of tradition, excellence and pride. From the tapered barrel to the feel of the trigger, we craft every detail to exact specifications. Because when you’re a leader, you had better earn it every single day.

An IRAC product is much more than a replica weapon. It is a symbol of sacrifice and determination. Before leaving our doors, each simulator is put through a battery of tests to see if it deserves the IRAC name. These tests push limits and prove it can stand up to any challenge. Yes, it’s an extra step. But, it’s how you live to a higher standard.

Perfection, it’s what sets us apart.

Bravery Honored - History Preserved

MODELING CAPABILITIES Creating the world’s finest simulated weapons means you are obsessed with the details. That’s why every piece of an IRAC product has been measured and modeled in Solidworks, a state-of-the-art 3D modeling and manufacturing production software. Our experienced designers use the software to ensure every detail of an IRAC simulator achieves perfection.

IDEA TO REALITYIRAC modeling capabilities don’t end with IRAC products. We can create manufacturing-ready 3D models of any physical shape. With our on-site 3D printers, we can quickly design and print a prototype of your concept. And, when you’re satisfied with the design, we can build your product in our equipped manufacturing center.

MANUFACTURINGEach replica machine gun is made in our cutting-edge manufacturing center. Here, specialists use a combination of computer-aided machines and experienced craftsmanship to make sure every part fits perfectly and performs as intended.

While other companies choose to piece their guns together using cheap parts, our passionate team incorporates world class tools, materials and expertise to construct each replica machine gun and reach the highest quality possible.

HISTORYAlthough the MK19 is a recent entry into the Army weapons inventory, development began in 1963. The original version, called the MK18, was a hand-cranked, multiple grenade launcher patented by the Honeywell Corporation and could only be fired as fast as the operator could manipulate the crank. In 1966, the need for more firepower inspired the development of a self-powered 40 MM machine gun called the MK19 MOD 0. Product improvements that began in 1971 resulted in the 1972 MOD 1. The MOD 1 performed effectively in Navy riverine patrol craft and broader applications for the MK19 were found. In 1973, the Navy developed the MOD 2, which featured improved reliability, safety and maintainability. In 1976, a Product Improvement Program (PIP) was initiated that resulted in yet another MK19 redesign, the MOD 3. The Army adopted the MK19 MOD 3 in 1983 to be used within the tactical environment for defense, retrograde, patrolling, rear area security, Military Operations in Urban Terrain (MOUT) and special operations.

HISTORYIn 1957, the iconic M60 (a.k.a. “The Pig”) was created to meet the U.S. military’s need for a modern machine gun that fired shorter rounds. The M60 is a gas-operated, air-cooled, belt-fed, automatic machine gun that fires from the open-bolt position. The M60’s rate of fire is a maximum of 550 rounds per minute. This weapon was originally intended to replace the M1918 Browning Automatic Rifle and M1919 Browning machine gun. Due to its widespread popularity, the M60 was heavily used by all military branches of the U.S. forces during the Vietnam War. The system’s large size and weight necessitated a two-man team to successfully operate it during combat situations.

HISTORYBy request of the U.S. Army, the .50 Caliber Machine Gun was developed by John M. Browning towards the end of WWI. By 1917, experiences in France verified the need for a heavy machine gun that could act against aircraft, tanks and first-appearing armored vehicles. By July 1917, the Browning .30-06 machine gun was scaled up and reinforced to handle a .50 Caliber cartridge. Browning assembled the first .50 Caliber prototype at the Winchester plant on November 12, 1918. After a series of testing multiple .50 Caliber variations in the 1920s, an improved version of the Model 1921–the Browning M2 .50 Caliber Heavy Barrel (HB)–was officially adopted in 1933.

HISTORYBy request of the U.S. Army, the .50 Caliber Machine Gun was developed by John M. Browning towards the end of WWI. After the war in 1921, the new machine gun was classified as a “heavy machine gun.” Initially, the .50 caliber was a water-cooled weapon system. However, in 1933, an air-cooled variant was developed for use in aircraft. This air-cooled version proved capable of keeping the barrel cooler for longer periods of fire.

• Capable of producing intense muzzle flash and thunderous sound

HISTORYThe M1919A4 Browning light machine gun was developed by renowned gun maker, John Browning, and was modified after the M1917A1. The M1919A4 may have had a slower rate of fire than the M1917, but it weighed less, making it a much more desirable infantry weapon. The fully automatic M1919A4 was typically used by infantry in WWII, the Korean War and the Vietnam War. This weapon is mounted on the M2 tripod or used as a fixed machine gun on armored vehicles.

HISTORYWhile the Browning M1917 machine gun was scarcely used in early American military history, it went on to fight in most all major conflicts in the 20th Century. The Browning M1917 was accepted into service after some impressive test firings for the U.S. Army. Despite its limited availability in WWI, the system came into its own during inter war years and became the featured heavy machine gun of the U.S. Army during WWII and the Vietnam War. While the Browning M1917 was initially categorized as a heavy machine gun by 1917 standards, the weapon was later “downgraded” to the medium machine gun category. The system was produced in enough numbers to ensure the Browning name would be synonymous with the U.S. Army for generations and lead to further Browning developments in the decades to come.
