CORE RIFLE SYSTEMS
C9 9mm Pistol / Carbine

CORE Rifle Systems is proud to introduce its new line of AR 9mm Pistols and Carbines! The new C9 is a ground up, original design. This is not a hybrid or modified AR. This all billet 7075 T6 Aluminum, all ambidextrous 9mm platform is designed around the GLOCK Magazine system. Designed specifically for Team Core’s professional shooters, this sleek little package delivers superior performance. All components are of the highest quality U.S. materials, crafted and engineered by U.S. veterans. The bolt/carrier is a non-rotating blow-back operation providing excellent function in its simplicity, made of the highest grade 416R Stainless Steel. The last round hold open functions flawlessly, while the unique ejection port provides trouble free cycling. The pistol model has the legendary SB Tactical PDW Brace, while the carbine has the awesome Magpul CTR Stock. They are both equipped with a Samson SX series M-Lok Rail System, while the barrel is completed by our award-winning Core Muzzle Brake. core15rifles.com

MEC-GAR USA, INC.
Magazines for CZ, SIG SAUER and BERETTA

For 2019 Mec-Gar introduces new magazine models for the CZ 75B compact, SIG SAUER P226 X5 and Beretta 92 compact pistols. In addition to their current aftermarket CZ 75B compact 9mm 14-round capacity magazine, Mec-Gar made modifications so the magazines carry 16 rounds while still remaining flush fit to the pistol. This allows for the same capacity as the full-size CZ 75B but in the compact frame. For states with capacity restrictions, Mec-Gar offers a dimpled 10-round capacity version of the magazine.

The SIG SAUER P226 X5 is a favorite pistol among competitors. Mec-Gar will be offering aftermarket magazines for the 9mm version of the pistol in 19-round and 10-round capacities. For the .40 Smith & Wesson caliber versions, the magazines will be offered in 14-round and 10-round capacities. The magazines will have Mec-Gar’s proprietary anti-friction coating on all models. This coating aids in loading and reduces malfunctions when feeding ammunition into the pistol.

Mec-Gar offers magazines for the Beretta 92 compact pistols in both a 15-round 9mm version with their anti-friction coating and a 10-round 9mm blued version. The 15-round magazine holds an additional two rounds of ammunition compared to the factory magazine and remains flush fit to the pistol. Like the CZ compact magazine this allows for the compact pistol to have the same capacity as the full-size pistol. mec-gar.com

SENTRY PRODUCTS GROUP (HEXMAG)
Gunnar Belt and Accessories

With years of experience in the tactical nylon market, SENTRY is proud to introduce the most flexible, secure and innovative accessory carry system on the market. This unique Patent Pending design utilizes SENTRY’s Variable Mounting Platform enabling accessories to mount directly on standard 1.5-inch to 1.75-inch belts via MOLLE / PALS mounting or integrated belt loops in either vertical or horizontal orientations. The patent pending 1080-2 mounting platform on the front of each pouch supports nesting units together, allowing quick configuration of gear to support mission demands. The low-profile construction method used by SENTRY eliminates traditional binding tape on each side of the pouches, ultimately minimizing the width of each pouch and the amount of space taken up by each pouch on the belt. Smaller waist-size operators get the advantage of having more space on their belt or load bearing equipment when using SENTRY pouches and accessories.
