Hillsborough, North Carolina — May 15, 2025 — Reptilia® is proud to announce the official release of the CQG™ – AK Grip, the newest addition to its growing lineup of purpose-built firearm accessories. Designed specifically for AKM platforms, the CQG AK enhances weapon control, ergonomics, and shooter comfort—all while maintaining the rugged reliability users expect from Reptilia products.
Built from high-strength reinforced nylon, the CQG AK offers a more vertical grip angle than traditional AK grips, an enhanced beavertail for improved hand positioning, and aggressive front and rear texturing for a secure hold in any environment. The design encourages a higher, more natural grip that improves control and responsiveness across a variety of shooting styles, from fast-paced training to duty use.
“Our customers asked for a better grip solution for their AKM pattern rifles, and we answered.”
“The CQG AK carries forward the same focus on ergonomics, durability, and simplicity that defines all of our products.”
Key Features:
Optimized for AK Platforms: Fits most AK47-pattern rifles and pistols
More Vertical Grip Angle: Promotes a higher, more controlled hand position
Enhanced Beavertail: Improves comfort and weapon control
Aggressive Texturing: Better grip in all weather conditions
Built from Reinforced Nylon: Lightweight and ultra-durable
Made in the USA
The CQG – AK is available now at reptiliacorp.com in four color options:
The Hawaiian shirt designs we previewed during Enforce Tac are now available for order.
Just in time for warm weather and a trip to the beach, these shirts offer the colorful vibe of 1980s Miami, as in Miami Vice.
In the patterns you’ll find more than just tropical flowers – each pattern references historical events, military equipment, and specialized operations.
In addition to the cool patterns, these shirts have some great features as well.
– a sunglasses loop
– a hidden zippered pocket
– an integrated microfiber lens wipe
They offer a loose fit and are made from a soft and breathable Cotton Blend (97% cotton, 3% elastane).
Original prints, each with its own story:
Cassino – a tribute to the Battle of Monte Cassino, one of the most significant WWII battles involving Polish forces. The design features symbolic red poppies, trumpeter Emil Czech, charging soldiers with bayonets, and period weapons such as the Sten and Lee-Enfield. It is a bold shirt with a powerful historical message.
Pacific – a bright design inspired by iconic films like Pulp Fiction and Miami Vice. You’ll spot waterborne operations within the blue waves: RIB boats, armed divers, and a Navy SEAL helicopter. A perfect pick for fans of fast-paced action and pop culture classics – in a summer edition.
Dark Ops – a Hawaiian shirt for those who prefer subdued tones and hidden details. Inspired by CQB (Close Quarters Battle), this design incorporates outlines of tactical gear: an MK18 rifle, an offensive pistol with mounted light, and flashbang grenades. It is ideal for anyone who values subtle aesthetics with a military edge.
Brushstroke – a fusion of Hawaiian ease and Rhodesian camouflage from the 60s and 70s. The pattern is built from bold green and brown patches over a sandy background, featuring silhouettes of weapons such as the AK-47 and FN FAL. A unique blend of history and style that’s sure to turn heads.
In addition, there’s a “Beach Bag”, a 500D Cordura tote in each of the shirt patterns:
– removable shoulder strap
– load-stabilizing straps
– soft-lined phone pocket
– key hook inside a mini wallet
– hook and loop panel for personalization
The latest suppressor form HUXWRX is referred to as “Black Magic” due to the internal string of letters used to describe the design.
This 5.56 can uses their patented flow through design. It’s printed from Inconel 718 with an Armorlube coating which acts similarly to DLC.
Here you can see the locking collar.
It is used with a printed and machined Inconel flash hider. It’s not a good idea to combine suppressors and muzzle devices form different materials due to varied wear. They print the blank and then do the finish work.

I often tell people that Radical’s story is a Tale of Two Cities. Many know them for their AR-15 pattern rifles, but those are but one part of a multi-faceted business that has supported SOF customers worldwide with specialized suppression options. Even those who are familiar with Radical Defense suppressors know about their machine gun work, but often overlook their bolt gun cans.
During SOF Week, they exhibited two precision firearm suppressors, the 338-LWBG and the 50-LWBG.
For those of you unfamiliar, this is the Gungnir, a multi-caliber bolt action precision rifle designed in Germany which can be configured by the user from .223 to 50 BMG. This is the .50 configuration and the rifle is fitted with Radical Defense’s 50 – Light Weight Bolt Gun Suppressor.
Description from Radical Defense:
Made of Haynes 282 the 50-LWBG utilizes lessons learned and design methodology to maintain the durability of Haynes, while drastically reducing weight; you’ll swear this suppressor is titanium. The coating is ALPHATEK Alpha Shield IR.
Based off the proven technology of their .50 belt fed suppressors, 50-LWBG takes advantage of complex internal geometries as well as an integrated muzzle brake to reduce felt recoil and tame .50 bolt action systems while still maintaining operability of semi-automatic systems.
This is the Steyr SSG M1 in 338 Lapua fitted with the 338-LWBG. Made from super alloy Haynes 282 with a ALPHATEK Alpha Shield IR coating, it provides sound, thermal, and flash mitigation.
MATBOCK skins have been out for awhile. They use the MATBOCK Ghost face material which is NIR compliant, hydrophobic and extremely lightweight. Previously they would laser cut for each pattern and object they were putting them on but it was hard to keep up with new products. Plus, they kept getting asked to sell just sheets of the skins. At the same time Armor Forge came to them with the idea to just make a bunch of 1” hexagon skins and the Universal Hexagon sheet was born.
This is a flat sheet 14″ x 18″ (35cm x 45cm) of 1″ (2.5cm) hexagons, which allow you to place the hexagon on anything. The design also allows you to fully cover any surface or create your own unique pattern.
Offered in three sizes, the new Magpul EDC pack line is made from premium, wear-resistant materials. They really hit it out of the park with these. They are not? only functional, but they look great and really help you blend in. I have been using the EDC18 off and on since SHOT Show. While I’m well known at trade shows for wearing a Tigerstripe backpack, many who saw me with the Magpul bag asked about it and my impressions. It’s comfortable to carry, well thought out and at a price that makes it more than competitive with other EDC brands.
In addition to the 15-liter messenger bag and 18-liter and 25-liter backpacks, they are two accessory sleeves, a Tactical Sleeve and a Media Sleeve insert. The bags are available in Black/FDE, Sleeves available in Black.
Each bag includes a CCW pocket (or to) for carrying a firearm, comfortable carriage design, and smart storage and organization options.
EDC15 Messenger Bag Features:
15-liter capacity
Built around a hidden CCW compartment?with dual access zippers
18? laptop storage compartment with 210 dimpled nylon fabric for protection
Large compartment for organization (includes two pen pockets, a zippered mesh pouch, and two pockets for smaller items)
Front compartment contains two stretch pockets and key leash
Includes an Apple® Airtag® pocket
Trolley pass through
Can be carried via the included padded shoulder strap or a carry handle on top of the bag
