TDI Vector
The KRISS Vector is a series of weapons based upon the parent submachine gun design developed by the American company KRISS USA, formerly Transformational Defense Industries (TDI). Designed in 2006 and seeing limited production since 2009, the KRISS Vector uses an unconventional delayed blowback system combined with in-line design to reduce perceived recoil and muzzle climb, invented by French engineer Renaud Kerbrat. The weapon is designed to accept extended Glock magazines and fires a variety of pistol cartridges. History In the spring of 2007, TDI announced their development of a new submachine gun. It was an experimental weapon under advanced stages of development at that time. The name ''Kriss'' comes from a Southeast Asian dagger with a flame-shaped blade. The second generation prototype of the Vector, called the ''K10'', was announced at 2011 SHOT Show. It is a slightly more compact version of the Vector that is based on the same Super V system.

M-LOK
M-LOK, for Modular Lock, is a firearm Rail Integration System, rail interface system developed and patented by Magpul Industries. The license is free-of-charge, but subject to an approval process. M-LOK allows for direct accessory attachment onto the "negative space" (hollow slot) mounting points, and is a competing standard to VLTOR's open sourced KeyMod system for replacing the ubiquitous Picatinny rail in some applications. Both M-LOK and KeyMod enable the user to have a slimmer, lighter, smoother and more fenestration (architecture), fenestrated handguard/Forearm (firearm component), fore-end with accessories and gadgets mounted only where needed as compared to a Picatinny handguard, which typically has whole length rail slots, resulting in a heavier weight, bulkier handguard and poorer Gun barrel, barrel ventilation, resulting in the barrel overheating more quickly. The M-LOK system can be seen as an evolution of the Magpul Original Equipment (MOE) system, but the two are ...

This fundamental property has led to its unique uses in other fields, ranging from science to sports, where it commonly denotes the first, leading, or top thing in a group. 1 is the unit of counting or measurement, a determiner for singular nouns, and a gender-neutral pronoun. Historically, the representation of 1 evolved from ancient Sumerian and Babylonian symbols to the modern Arabic numeral. In mathematics, 1 is the multiplicative identity, meaning that any number multiplied by 1 equals the same number. 1 is by convention not considered a prime number. In digital technology, 1 represents the "on" state in binary code, the foundation of computing. Philosophically, 1 symbolizes the ultimate reality or source of existence in various traditions.
