Leupold has added to its mounting systems with the introduction of its new Mark 4 IMS mounts for AR-15s (Modern Sporting Rifles), and expanded rifle fits in its QRW, PRW, Dual Dovetail, Quick Release and Standard bases.

Warne Scope Mounts has released a 40mm Mountain Tech ring set, designed for the Swarovski dS scope.

Elite Survival Systems' RC Series Elite rifle cases are constructed of padded 1000 denier nylon with full-length heavy-duty zippers, and welded-steel D rings.
