a one-point tactical sling adapter; a fold-to-the side compact buttstock with rubber buttpad, similar to a Galil; and an innovative patented design which locks the gun to the frame in both the front and back, making the KPOS a \u2018rock-solid\u2019 system.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, the KPOS has five rails (two on the top, one on each side, and one below) which allow a foregrip, flashlight, optics, laser and\/or iron sight or any sight used on a rifle, to be mounted on it.\u00a0 Besides having room for a sight, there is also enough space for a magnifier and a backup flip-up sight.\u00a0 Even if the user chooses not to mount an additional sight, they can shoot using the original handgun sight.\u00a0 A silencer can also be mounted on the barrel.<\/p>\n<p>The KPOS is very compact, in fact smaller and lighter than a mini-Uzi.\u00a0 No tooling is required for installation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe exhibited the KPOS at the 2010 Shot Show and at several distributor shows in January 2010 and the reaction was amazing!\u201d, says Addy Sandler, The Mako Group\u2019s CEO.\u00a0 \u201cThe KPOS was one of the most popular of all our new products!\u00a0 In addition to all the features mentioned above, the KPOS conversion kit also includes a bungee sling, our popular FGG-S tactical folding grip, and a Glock charging handle specifically-designed for use with the KPOS.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Note: if you own a Glock handgun and you purchase the KPOS, your handgun becomes a short-barreled rifle (SBR) and you must register your weapon with the ATF using ATF Form 1 and paying the fee.<\/p>\n<p>KPOS retail pricing is $497.65.\u00a0 Additional information and pictures can be found at<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.makosecurity.com\/Merchant2\/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&amp;Store_Code=MSI&amp;Product_Code=KPOS&amp;Category_Code= \" target=\"_blank\">www.makosecurity.com\/Merchant2\/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&amp;Store_Code=MSI&amp;Product_Code=KPOS&amp;Category_Code= <\/a><\/p>\n<p>To find your nearest dealer, call (631) 880-3396 or send an e-mail to info@themakogroup.com<\/p>\n<p><strong>About The Mako Group<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Mako Group manufactures, markets, and distributes innovative security products for law enforcement, the military, and the outdoors market.\u00a0 The company is headquartered in Farmingdale, New York and has offices in Atlanta, Georgia, Nixa, Missouri, and Anchorage, Alaska.\u00a0 The Mako Group is the sole source North American marketer for three Israeli security products companies \u2013 FAB Defense weapon accessories, Front Line holsters, and Sansolo EOD &amp;
