If you are a fan of firearms, you might have heard of the Micro Roni. The Micro Roni is a conversion kit that transforms your pistol into a carbine. CAA, the manufacturer of the Micro Roni, has been improving its design for a while. The latest version, Micro Roni Gen 4, is now on the market. So what's new in this latest model? And why is it better than the previous ones? In this post we will try to answer these questions for you.

First, let's take a quick look at what the Micro Roni is. It's a kit that allows you to attach your pistol to a stock, barrel, and various accessories such as sights, lights, and lasers. The result is a more stable and accurate shooting experience. It also gives you the ability to fire your pistol using a stock. It's also a convenient way to convert your pistol into a carbine. This can be useful in situations where you need a longer-range or higher-caliber firearm.

 

The Evolution of the Micro Roni

Before we dive into the Gen 4, Here is a brief summary of the original Micro Roni and its improvements across the generations:

• Original Micro Roni:
  The first-generation Micro Roni was released in 2014. It was designed to turn Glock pistols into carbines. Also, it was made of polymer and aluminum and featured a folding stock, a charging handle, and a rail system for attaching accessories.
  
  
• Micro Roni Gen 2:
  The second-generation Micro Roni was released in 2015. This model addressed some of the criticisms of the original model. It featured an improved folding mechanism, better ergonomics, and a redesigned charging handle. It was also available in versions for other pistol models besides Glocks.
  
  
• Micro Roni Gen 3:
  The third-generation Micro Roni was released in 2018. This one focused on modularity and customization. It featured an improved locking system, compatibility with a wider range of pistol models, and a range of accessories such as flip-up sights, thumb rests, and flashlights.
  
  
• Micro Roni Gen 4:
  The fourth-generation Micro Roni was released in 2020. This model added several new features, including a side-folding stock, a reversible charging handle, and an improved trigger guard. It also introduced the Micro Roni X version, which has a longer barrel and is designed to be classified as a "firearm" rather than a pistol carbine conversion kit.

 

What's new in the Micro Roni Gen 4:

1. No Pistol Disassembly Required:
   One of the most significant improvements in the Micro Roni Gen 4 is that you no longer need to disassemble your pistol to attach it to the kit. A drop-and-lock mechanism that allows you to attach your pistol within seconds. This is a big improvement over the previous models, which required some disassembly. This new mechanism is making the conversion kit more convenient and faster to use.
   
   
2. Longer Picatinny Rail:
   The Gen 4 has a longer Picatinny rail, which allows you to attach more accessories. For instance, you can add red-dot sights, backup sights, magnifiers, or night-vision devices. This is particularly useful if you need to customize your kit for a specific situation or shooting style.
   
   
3. Extra Right and Left Picatinny Rails:
   The Gen 4 also features two additional Picatinny rails on the right and left sides. The rails provide more options for attaching accessories. This means you can attach more accessories without having to remove others.
   
   
4. Ambidextrous Charging Handle:
   The Gen 4 has an ambidextrous charging handle that makes it easy and fast to charge your firearm, regardless of whether you're left- or right-handed. Additionally, you have the option to upgrade to a full-auto ambidextrous charging handle for even faster reloading.
   
   
5. Ambidextrous Trigger-Guard Safety:
   Another ambidextrous feature of the Gen 4 is its trigger-guard safety. This feature makes it easier for both left- and right-handed shooters to operate the safety mechanism. Thanks to this, the Gen 4 is more versatile and user-friendly.

6. Right-Folding Stock:
   The Gen 4's stock folds to the right, making it easy to conceal and carry. Additionally, the pistol can still be operated with the stock folded. This makes it more versatile and convenient to use.
   
   
7. Serrated Thumb-Rests:
   The Gen 4 has serrated thumb-rests on both sides of the kit, providing you with better grip and control on recoil and muzzle-rise. This feature is particularly useful in high-stress situations where accuracy is essential.
   
   
8. Front Extra Magazine Carrier:
   The Gen 4 also features a front extra magazine carrier that allows for fast reloads. This is especially useful if you need to reload quickly in a high-stress situation.
   
   
9. Front Integral Tactical Light (Optional):
   Lastly, the Gen 4 offers an optional front integral tactical light, which provides you with better visibility in low-light situations. This feature can be particularly useful for law enforcement officers, security personnel, or anyone who needs to operate in low-light environments.

In summary, the Micro Roni Gen 4 offers several improvements over the previous models.
