Reptilia Introduces Q-Sert Versions of TORCH Light Body and SOCKET QD Sling Mount

Thursday, October 15th, 2026

New mounting options bring two established Reptilia accessories to Q-Sert-equipped handguards.

Reptilia announces the launch of the TORCH™ 6V/18650 Q-Sert Light Body and SOCKET™ Q-Sert QD Sling Mount, expanding its accessory lineup with dedicated options for the Q-Sert mounting system.

Both products attach directly to Q-Sert-equipped handguards, providing compact mounting solutions for lights and slings without separate adapters.

TORCH™ 6V/18650 Q-Sert Light Body

The TORCH combines the light body and mounting interface in a single component, keeping the light close to the handguard and reducing unnecessary bulk. Offered in left- and right-side configurations, it allows users to choose the placement that suits their setup.

The TORCH is compatible with Modlite Systems and SureFire® M600DF Scout light heads and tail caps. It is sold as a light body only, not a complete light.

SOCKET™ Q-Sert QD Sling Mount

The SOCKET brings Reptilia’s low-profile, anti-snag sling attachment design to the Q-Sert mounting system. Originally developed in response to an end-user request for a streamlined QD attachment, the SOCKET provides a compact connection point while minimizing protrusions that can catch on equipment.

The new Q-Sert version extends that approach to users seeking a dedicated sling attachment for their Q-Sert-equipped handguards.

Deliveries are scheduled to begin in 2026 and continue through October 2027.

The order includes production of 3,104 new MK93 enhanced softmount systems as well as upgrades to 245 previously delivered mounts, bringing all systems to the current configuration. The total order value is $20.7M (€ 18.05M).

The MK93 enhanced softmount provides a stable, durable, and mission-ready mounting solution for crew?served weapon systems. Its design supports reliability, configuration commonality, and long?term sustainment, ensuring U.S. forces have equipment aligned with modern operational requirements. The program underscores American Rheinmetall’s ongoing commitment to U.S. defense customers through domestic manufacturing and sustainment capabilities.

Shadow Tech Launches New 4 Section Tripod

Tuesday, September 29th, 2026

The 4 Section Carbon Fiber Tripod NCT-PIGlite-CF4 is the next evolution of the tried-and-true PIGlite-CF4. Proudly built in the USA and upgraded based on years of professional experience and user feedback.

Designed for backpackers, outdoorsmen, and end-users who don’t have the luxury to take a follow-up shot. Refusing to compromise between weight and durability, the NCT-PIGlite-CF4 carries forward everything that made the original field tripod a success and refines core features through precision manufacturing & engineering.

Stability on Demand

When the window of opportunity presents itself, there’s no time to second guess your shooting position. The NCT-PIGlite-CF4 delivers benchrest stability the moment you need it. No sticks, bags, or extra leg, just a stable platform that keeps your reticle on target. Utilizing an overlapping pattern of Toray unidirectional (UD) carbon fiber, we’ve created the optimal balance of strength, rigidity, & weight reduction.

Tripod to Ball Head Fusion

Featuring a semi-permanent interlocking gear mount for the TH-1.4 ball head, this tripod is engineered as one seamless tripod system. No more worrying if your ball head pans loose in the field.

A Shooter’s Companion

From glassing distant hillsides to building a stable position in a tight, confined space, the NCT-PIGlite-CF4 was built to reduce shooter variables and increase 1st round confidence.

Features:

  • American made, TAA compliant, manufactured in Kansas City, USA
  • A half pound lighter than the original PIGlite-CF4 (3.0 lbs)
  • Load rating nearly tripled to 70 lbs
  • Toray unidirectional (UD) carbon fiber legs
  • CNC machined aluminum leg lock levers. Durable, adjustable, & cold weather rated.
  • Monolithic stop caps replace the internal leg stop shims found on standard tripods, drastically improving leg service life
  • Four-position independent leg splay (0°, 25°, 45°, 85°) lock closed at 0° to prevent inadvertent splay during transport
  • Interlocking gear mount creates a semi-permanent connection with the TH-1.4 ball head that won’t rotate loose in the field
  • Hard-anodized aluminum (FDE & OD Green), and painted carbon legs (OD Green)
  • Includes urethane feet (installed) and 304 stainless steel spiked feet
  • Three built-in swivel studs for sling attachment, plus an optional load-bearing hook position

SIG SAUER KILO Micro LRF

Monday, September 28th, 2026

They really pulled out all the stops during last week’s SIG NEXT event, but of all of the new products, my favorite is the smallest.

I first saw it in a photo with no frame of reference for its size. Turns out, it’s truly palm sized. Below you can see it next to the WARP, SIG’s full featured LRF.

It started out as an archery LRF but proved to be much more versatile and they’ve added eight onboard firearm ballistic groups to the archery setting.

Weighing just 3.4 ounces, this small, handheld laser range finder features a 4x18mm Monocular can which range past the 1000 yards promised by SIG using their GEN II LIGHTWAVE DSP.

KILO Micro relies on a rechargeable battery for up to 3,000 ranges per charge. They’ve included a QDI magnetic harness mount but I’m trying to figure out a way to mount it to coaxially to a weapon mounted optic.

Top all of that off with an IP67 waterproof rating and $249.99 MSRP and I’d recommend everyone pick one up.

Forward Controls Design Introduces OPF-G6 Optics Plates for Glock Gen 6 ORS

Tuesday, September 22nd, 2026

Forward Controls Design has released the first models in its OPF-G6 family of heavy-duty optic plates for Glock Gen 6 pistols equipped with the Optic Ready System (ORS).

FCD was not first to market with Gen 6 optic plates, but that was never the objective. Additional development time was spent refining the interface, material selection, tolerances, and installation rather than compromising the design for an earlier release.

Glock’s Gen 6 optic system is a significant departure from the previous MOS system. Instead of a conventional flat mounting surface, ORS uses an insert that interfaces with an hourglass-shaped pocket machined into the slide, with a rear locking tab providing additional retention.

OPF-G6 was designed specifically around those features. The underside of each plate fills the ORS pocket and engages the rear locking tab. Because the plate enters the pocket at an angle before falling into position, FCD also refined the front bevel to allow the plate to seat smoothly during installation.

All OPF-G6 plates are machined from 17-4 stainless steel and finished in black nitride. The steel construction allows the plate’s mechanical interfaces to resist movement and deformation while managing recoil through engagement with the ORS pocket rather than relying on the optic screws.

For OPF-G6, RMR, FCD also evaluated a full-width design that eliminated the need for a sealing plate with the original RMR, but it added approximately 0.070 inches of height. Since the RMR HD, RCR, and SRO do not require a sealing plate, FCD retained the lower mounting height.

The OPF-G6 family currently includes:

OPF-G6, RMR: Trijicon RMR, RMR HD, RCR, SRO, and Primary Arms HTX-1 with its supplied adapter.

OPF-G6, ACRO: Aimpoint ACRO P2 and Steiner MPS.

OPF-G6, DPP: Leupold DeltaPoint Pro and EOTech EFLX.

OPF-G6 plates are available now from Forward Controls Design and authorized FCD dealers.
