CAA Downsizes the MCK: MCK TAC

The MCK TAC is an expansion to the lineup of CAA USA MCK/Micro Conversion Kits (like the one reviewed here a couple years ago). The MCK TAC is available in a wide range of colors, camouflage patterns, and “special” color schemes, and is compatible with more than 120 models of handgun.

Unlike their the carbine conversion kit for GLOCKs from a few years back, the MCK TAC is one of the smallest “PDW conversion kits” (if not the smallest) available…at least among the more common ones in mass production anyway.

There is also an MCK TAC conversion kit available for those who want to retrofit a previous model of weapon and frame.

The MCK TAC is designed for close-in type defensive work (hence the specifically mentioned PDW/personal defense angle), including “close protection” (i.e. VIP/PSD uses), providing what is essentially an add-on shooting platform expansion. There is no stock on the MCK TAC as it is not intended to be shouldered.

Instead, it’s stabilized (insomuch as any weapon using sling tension can be stabilized) as described by the manufacturer below.

The MCK TAC ships with a special Bungee sling, sling swivel, and rail-mounted thumb rest for added stability when accuracy and control truly count.

The combination of the shooter’s arm at full extension and the resistance from the bungee-style sling creates a steady platform for added accuracy and control when shooting the MCK TAC.

Installation is fast, simple, and largely intuitive.

LTC. (Ret.) Mikey Hartman, CEO of CAA USA advises,

Born out of demand by private and military security firms, we put our engineering team to work on creating the most compact and discrete MCK (Micro Conversion Kit) to date. Presenting the MCK TAC. The TAC is suitable for all real-time scenarios in which concealment and speed are paramount. Taking cues from the shooting dynamics of firearms like the HK MP5K, the MCK TAC, with included bungee sling and swivel is the ultimate compact shooting solution. Not only are we releasing the MCK TAC, but we’ve also created a TAC upgrade KIT to retrofit any existing MCK to the new TAC configuration. The TAC rear compartment keeps you in the fight by adding storage for an additional CR123 battery for your weapon light or optic, up to four 9mm rounds or even hearing protection.

No Stock? Push the Sling

Some people refer to the “sling tension shooting” as the “SAS method.” It was first popularized by images of the British SAS Regiment using MP5s although other units and teams have used it, too.

Sling tension shooting is, as described above, a push/pull method. Here’s an explanation (albeit demonstrated on a different weapon system).
