In an effort to continually improve our products, we have upgraded all wire forms in the MARK (Modular Attach Rail Kit) to a standard length with swaged tips. This means that MARK wire forms will allow more vertical adjustment and will be 100% drop-in compatible with 3M Peltor products out of the box. The new swaged tips are also 100% compatible with our SARA (Sordin Arc Rail Adapter) systems for use on MSA/Sordin-based headsets.
The MARK is the most complete system for direct mounting communication headsets and electronic ear protection to modern helmets. It is the smallest, lightest, and lowest profile attachment method for most popular headset systems used by professionals on the modern battlefield, including 3M Peltor, MSA, Sordin, Safaraliand TCI, TEA, and many more. Kits are available to interface with Genuine Ops-Core ARC, Crye Precision ARC, Revision, Team Wendy, and MTEK MLOK rail platforms. The wire forms of the MARK system are designed to put more inward pressure on the ear cups to improbe the seal. This can provide better hearing protection, electronic communication transmission, and overall fit of the helmet. The small hub leaves more helmet rail estate open for attaching other mission critical gear like lights, illuminators, cameras, etc.

Reptilia’s latest product is the CQG Pistol Grip. Its smaller design was inspired by the old Colt 607 and is a great fit for the increasingly popular compact sized short-barreled rifles, AR15 pistols, and pistol caliber carbines.
Featuring a more pronounced vertical grip angle, anti-slip front and rear texture, and an enhanced beaver tail design; the CQG encourages the shooter’s hand to be positioned higher on the grip, for greater control and improved comfort.
The CQG is designed for a wide range of hand sizes and weapon configurations. Molded from high-strength reinforced polymer, the CQG is compatible with AR15/M16, AR10/SR25, and SIG MPX/MCX platforms that features a full lifetime warranty against manufacturer defects – buy with confidence. Made in USA.
Nomad Defense Co.’s Nomad 9 is a stripped pistol frame that is compatible with Gen4 G19 components. Built with improved ergonomics over the stock Glock frame, the Nomad 9 features an extended beavertail; a contoured grip with no finger grooves; a raised trigger guard to allow for a higher grip, which is also enlarged for better use with gloves; and a forward thumb ledge, similar to the ‘gas pedal’ found on many modern competition pistols. The Nomad 9 also features a factory ‘rock grip’ texture, a MIL-STD 1913 spec accessory rail, flared magwell, and three interchangeable backstrap sizes.
Because of design changes when compared to a Glock-spec frame, the Nomad 9 is not guaranteed to be compatible with many G19-compatible holsters, however Nomad Defense is working with several holster makers to develop holsters for the Nomad 9.
