Reptilia Introduces The AGS 34MM 0 MOA Mount For Precision Rifles
Thursday, September 17th, 2026Reptilia Corp. announces the release of the AGS 34mm 0 MOA Mount, expanding the AGS lineup with a level mounting configuration designed for precision rifle applications.
Developed specifically for shooters who demand a low-profile, rigid optic interface, the AGS features a 1.34-inch optical centerline and a symmetric, non-cantilever design that positions the optic directly over the receiver.
Machined from billet 7075-T6 aluminum, the AGS is engineered to provide a strong, streamlined mounting solution without unnecessary material or bulk. The mount is finished with a Type III hardcoat anodized finish and utilizes robust hardware designed for demanding field use.
The 34mm 0 MOA configuration provides a level interface between the rifle and optic, allowing shooters to utilize their optic’s available elevation adjustment without introducing additional built-in elevation into the mount.
“The AGS was designed around a simple idea: build the mount around the rifle and optic, rather than adding features for the sake of features,” said Eric Burt, President and Founder of Reptilia Corp. “The 34mm 0 MOA gives precision shooters another configuration to match their optic and intended application.”
AGS 34MM 0 MOA Features:
- 34mm optic diameter
- 1.34-inch optical centerline
- 0 MOA
- Symmetric, non-cantilever design
- Billet 7075-T6 aluminum construction

BlackPoint Tactical Launches ARC-LOCK TASER Holster With Two Levels of Retention
Tuesday, September 15th, 2026ALPHARETTA, G.A. – September 14, 2026 – BlackPoint Tactical, a High Speed Gear® Products Group brand, announces the launch of the ARC-LOCK™ TASER Holster, a professional-duty holster engineered specifically for the TASER® 7 and TASER® 10 energy weapons.
Designed for law-enforcement officers, military personnel and other professionals who demand uncompromising security for their less-lethal equipment, the ARC-LOCK TASER Holster features two levels of retention while maintaining a draw mechanic that is smooth, fast, and consistent.
At the center of the design is the BlackPoint Tactical Master Grip Concept. The retention lever is positioned so the user can comfortably reach it when establishing a full, natural grip on the TASER® . This eliminates unnecessary hand articulation and allows the user to maintain the master grip throughout the draw and presentation of the device. The result is an intuitive draw stroke designed to provide officers with fast, dependable access to their less-lethal option when seconds matter.
“Law-enforcement professionals should not have to choose between equipment security and immediate access,” said Tyler Johnson, Vice President of Finance and Holster Sales, High Speed Gear Products Group. “The ARC-LOCK TASER® Holster applies BlackPoint Tactical’s proven Master Grip Concept to the TASER®, giving officers two levels of retention without introducing unnecessary or unnatural movement into the draw.”
This holster’s first level of retention is an adjustable friction fit, while the second level is an auto-rotating hood. The hood is easily released by depressing the retention lever. Customizations offered include magnetic activation for the Taser® 10 and a hood augmentation plate which further enhances the security of the Taser® in the holster. Together, these features balance performance and equipment security with a smooth, natural draw stroke, giving professionals greater confidence during routine duty and rapidly evolving encounters.
Features include:
• Two levels of retention
• BlackPoint Tactical’s Master Grip Concept
• Belt and MOLLE mounting options (also compatible with 3rd party accessories)
• Durable construction designed for professional duty use
• Thread locker applied to hardware to help prevent screws from loosening over time
• Designed and manufactured in the United States
The BlackPoint Tactical TASER® 10 Holster has also been recognized through the National Tactical Officers Association’s Member Tested and Recommended Program, further supporting its suitability for professional law-enforcement use. The product appears among the equipment reviewed through the NTOA Member Tested and Recommended Program.
The ARC-LOCK TASER® Holster expands BlackPoint Tactical’s growing line of professional-duty offerings reflects the company’s commitment to developing dependable retention products around the real-world needs of law-enforcement officers.
The BlackPoint Tactical ARC-LOCK TASER® Holster is available now. For product specifications and ordering information, visit the BlackPoint Tactical website at: blackpointtactical.com/shop/arc-lock-taser-holster-2-levels-of-retention
Global Military Products Unveils Scorpion Medium 120mm Mobile Mortar System on Army’s Infantry Squad Vehicle
Tuesday, September 15th, 2026TAMPA, Fla. (Sept. 14, 2026) — Global Military Products is unveiling the first and only auto-lay 120mm mobile mortar system integrated on an Infantry Squad Vehicle-Utility (ISV-U) this week: the Scorpion Medium. The new system combines lightweight electric components from the Scorpion Light with components from the Scorpion Heavy, including the larger non-seating baseplate and mortar barrel. The all-new Scorpion Medium will be displayed with the 75th Ranger Regiment at the Army Maneuver Warfighter Conference at Fort Benning, Georgia.
Built with mobility in mind, the Scorpion Medium 120mm mobile mortar system is light enough for the Army’s ISV-U and still carries 16 mortar rounds. The all-electric system has the same architecture and upgrade capability of the Scorpion Light 81mm mobile mortar system, which streamlines training and logistics and capitalizes on Army investments in modernizing mortar technology. The Scorpion Medium is compatible with U.S. government fire control requirements and has more than 95% parts commonality with the Scorpion Light, currently on contract with the U.S. Army.
“There is an incredible amount of value to this system, and we’re excited to unveil the Scorpion Medium at Fort Benning this week. Operationally, it provides soldiers with a new capability – the first and only 120mm solution on an Army ISV that is all-electric and easy to operate,” said James Knight, director of Business Development, Global Military Products. “And because of the commonality with the Scorpion Light, which is already under contract, the Army can leverage architecture investments for quicker, less costly integration of U.S. fire control while securing a much-needed capability for light infantry units.”
A single button controls the emplacement and displacement of the Scorpion Medium 120mm mobile mortar system, taking roughly 10 seconds. The autonomous targeting and auto-lay capabilities and single-operator functions remain the same. Its patented non-seating baseplate allows it to fire from almost any surface – even concrete or paved ground.
Scorpion mobile mortar systems have unique characteristics that have already made them invaluable to Army soldiers. Designed to enhance expeditionary indirect fire capabilities, the next-generation Scorpion mobile mortar systems deliver a highly mobile, digitally enabled mortar platform capable of rapid emplacement, autonomous targeting and precision engagement in support of distributed operations. The integration of advanced fire control architecture significantly accelerates the sensor-to-shooter kill chain, enabling faster target acquisition, digital fire mission processing, and rapid engagement of multiple targets with reduced crew workload and increased survivability.
Over the past two years, the U.S. Army and Global Military Products have collaborated through Soldier Enhancement Program (SEP) initiatives and Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRADA) efforts to refine and test the Scorpion Light Mobile Mortar System and incorporate direct soldier feedback into its development. These iterative efforts have significantly advanced the platform’s mobility, lethality, survivability and operational effectiveness – and that investment directly benefits the Scorpion Medium 120mm mobile mortar system.
Global Military Products will also display the Scorpion Light 81mm mobile mortar system on the Army’s ISV-U at the Maneuver Warfighter Conference in booths 805 and 806. The company was recently awarded a $13 million contract from the Army for this system and has already begun shipping fully integrated systems for Army test and evaluation.
