Reptilia Announces Launch of 15” Arca Integrated Handguard and Fix It Sticks Toolkit

Thursday, April 30th, 2026

Hillsborough, NC -Reptilia is proud to announce the release of two new products engineered to meet the evolving demands of modern shooters: the 15” Arca Integrated Handguard and the Reptilia Fix It Sticks Toolkit. Together, these launches reinforce Reptilia’s commitment to precision, durability, and purpose-driven design.

The 15” Arca Integrated Handguard features a fully machined Arca-Swiss interface, bringing true, direct-to-tripod capability to the rifle. Originally developed in precision photography, the Arca standard has become a preferred mounting solution among shooters seeking rapid attachment, precise balance adjustment, and enhanced stability in field conditions. Reptilia’s implementation incorporates a continuous Arca profile along the bottom of the handguard, allowing users to fine-tune rifle positioning in seconds.

Central to the design is Reptilia’s patented turnbuckle mounting system, which ensures a secure, repeatable lockup across all standard M4 upper receivers while minimizing added bulk. Full M-LOK compatibility is retained, providing flexibility for mounting bipods, illumination tools, and other accessories without compromise. The handguard is available in Black and Flat Dark Earth (FDE).

Complementing the rifle-side upgrade, the Reptilia Fix It Sticks® Toolkit offers a field-ready solution for maintenance and adjustment. The kit includes an all-in-one torque driver with a 15–65 in-lb range, a T-Way T-handle wrench with magnetic bit retention, a comprehensive 15-bit set, socket and adapter compatibility, and a brass hammer head for controlled impact tasks. The toolkit is housed in a durable, weather-resistant zippered case made by Paladin 33, constructed from X-Pac® VX21 ripstop fabric for long-term performance in demanding environments.

Both products are proudly made in the United States and backed by Reptilia’s commitment to quality and reliability.

Mountain Horse Solutions Wins Drone Dominance Lethality Prize Challenge

Wednesday, April 29th, 2026

SARASOTA, FL – (April 29, 2026) – Through the Department of War Drone Dominance Program, Mountain Horse Solutions — a Global Ordnance company — in partnership with Gale Force Marine, Argus Industrial, and Crucial Defense Technologies, has been selected as a winner of the Drone Dominance Program (DDP) Lethality Prize Challenge.

This challenge focuses on identifying scalable and modular lethal payload solutions that can transform any Group 1 sUAS into a one-way attack system or droppable munition capable in minutes. Mountain Horse Solutions has brought together outstanding warhead and explosive design, safe-and-arm systems, remote explosive initiation systems — and integrated them into a dynamically lethal capability for any drone on the market.

“This is exactly the kind of problem set we are built for — delivering adaptable, scalable lethal solutions that keep pace with the lightning-fast evolution of drone warfare,” said Bill Allen, president of Mountain Horse Solutions. “This is a big step toward accelerating safe integration and real-world deployment, and we are poised to bring these solutions to the warfighter.”

Mountain Horse Solutions Lethality Focus Areas:

• Integration across multiple Group 1 sUAS platforms.

• Support both live and training payload configurations.

• Scalable ESAD/EMSAD safety architectures suitable for government safety review and approval processes.

• Ability to demonstrate integrated drone-payload system at DDG2 events.

Mountain Horse Solutions, through its parent company Global Ordnance, provides comprehensive, turn-key munitions and explosives safety, transportation, and storage solutions — particularly for DDP participants. With full firearms, munitions, and explosives licenses in place, the company enables drone manufacturers to focus on their core competency, while Mountain Horse Solutions manages full lethality and munition integration —delivering mission-ready armed drones to the government.

“The requirements and licenses required to handle and arm munitions are extensive, and we are well-versed and compliant in all aspects, alleviating the need for each individual drone manufacturer to undergo that effort and expense,” Allen said.

About the Drone Dominance Program

The Drone Dominance Program (DDP) is awarding $1.1 billion in prototype orders utilizing 10 U.S.C. 4022 over four independent phases. This multi-phase plan is an advanced market commitment: the Department is posting quantities and prices up front and will award fixed price prototype deliveries with vendors whose systems meet the Gauntlet performance and delivery requirements. Each phase includes a Gauntlet test event, run by the Test Resource Management Center (TRMC), and ends with delivery of sUAS via an Other Transaction —Prototype delivery order for the winners of the Gauntlet.

At the completion of the DDP, multiple U.S. vendors will have demonstrated the ability to produce capable, low-cost, secure supply-chain sUAS at scale, enabling Services to integrate these capabilities into future acquisition pathways. Drone Dominance is relying on industry to innovate to complete battlefield missions, reduce unit costs and scale production, with a preference for systems sourced and manufactured primarily in the United States.
