Modular and easy-to-use, these holsters address shooter’s needs for storage, range use and concealed carry; all while maintaining the high-quality construction and materials expected from Comp-Tac’s products. The models offer both inside the waistband or outside the waistband holsters for concealed carry or competition with multiple clip options. The holsters will be on display at the company’s booth (#15743) during SHOT Show 2016 in Las Vegas, NV.
The Q Line of holsters are designed for individuals both new to handguns, as well as those looking for a versatile solution, providing simplicity and value for their daily carry. Offering a more modular design, each holster allows for a variety of gun models, with no interchangeable shells or clips required.

The patented Comp-Tac Clips, offer users ride height and cant adjustment to allow them to set the holster up for their own personal comfort requirements.
The Q-I (Inside the Waistband) Holster
Designed to meet a growing demand for versatile, inside-the-waistband Kydex holsters, Comp-Tac perfected the notion by taking into account unique user experiences, expertise and the concept that different body shapes and lifestyles create multiple concealed carry needs.

It offers Comp-Tac’s one of a kind, all Kydex construction and molding for the smoothest fastest draw, and a retention adjustment screw for the perfect hold for multiple firearms in each modular size.
Taking into account the ambidextrous shooters, the holster has a dual sided multi-option mounting block, which also allows for the adjustment of cant at 30° for multiple position wear. The sight-enabled design accommodates up to .5” high night sights, suppressor sights and rear sight mounted optics.
In an effort to maximize comfort and minimize stress points, the Q-I is designed with smooth edges throughout, with a polymer clip that allows for fast and easy wear. Its minimalist size is perfect to quickly put on, easy carry on the body and effortless storage when not in use.
The Q-B (Outside the Waistband Belt) Holster

The multiple holes allow for 180° cant adjustment. The QB is legal for all competitive shooting sports and provides a quick, easy-to-use concealed carry option.
“Development of the Q Line has been one of the most exciting projects I have had the chance to work on here at Comp-Tac. From initial concept stages, R&D, fit, finish and function almost every Comp-Tac employee had a hand in the design. In addition, we were even able to involve customers in some beta testing which gave us valuable feedback,” explained Comp-Tac’s President and Owner, Gregg Garrett.
“The Q Line provides the modular fit, the flexibility to personalize and the value that we as shooters want and that our customers have been asking for.”

Aardvark Launched Project 7 Armor
Saturday, January 16th, 2016La Verne, CA – AARDVARK is excited to announce the launch of PROJECT 7 Armor. Designed in collaboration with The Safariland Group and utilizing cutting edge technologies from several industry leaders including Blue Force Gear, Honeywell, and Dupont, PROJECT 7 is the first full coverage tactical armor system that doesn’t compromise safety for comfort. Designed to be lighter, flexible, comfortable, and more athletic, PROJECT 7 achieves what other tactical vests have failed to do – provide both mobility and coverage.
PROJECT 7 hosts an array of unique features including an external flexible yoke designed for full range of motion, a prone position compatible collar, Safariland’s patent pending angular webless MOLLE, and structured upper arm protection sized to each user.
AARDVARK’s CEO Jon Becker stated “For PROJECT 7, we started with a blank piece of paper. We looked at every design aspect of the vest and asked ourselves, ‘How can we make this better?’ Then, we took that design and made it out of only the absolute best technologies available across the industry. We’re ecstatic to finally have PROJECT 7 reach the tactical market. ”
Todd Mackler, VP of Armor for the Safariland Group echoed Becker’s sentiment saying, “We are very excited for PROJECT 7 to finally be launching. We considered an unprecedented amount of client feedback in the development of this armor system, and I believe PROJECT 7 will not only meet the needs of our clients, but will also help the tactical community to be dramatically safer.”
In addition to PROJECT 7 Armor, the revolutionary P7ARMOR.COM was launched this morning. The first interactive website in the industry, the site was designed to allow users to have an in-depth understanding of all of the innovative key components of PROJECT 7. Not only are visitors able to view vests in 360°, but perhaps more importantly, users have the ability to configure their own vest to their exact specifications including color options, ballistic packages, rifle plates, accessories, and even custom ID patches, and then download or share the spec sheet for their specific configuration.
