FOUNDATIONAL PILLARS
History
“Your track record proceeds you”
Be mindful of all decisions, as our actions will have a lasting impact further down the road. Slow down, take one step at a time, and learn from the past to build a better future.
Collaborate
“A Rising tide lifts all boats”
Regardless of the endeavor, all parties should work to achieve a common goal. Does this goal align with our values? Together we are stronger and can make a greater impact on the world.
Growth
“Good, better, best. Never let it rest until your good is better and your better is best”
Remember we never stop improving. Continue to better yourself and each other, even if it’s one small step at a time.
Humility
“Just because you can, doesn’t mean you should”
Letting emotions drive the decision-making process can blind logic. Regardless of title or position everyone must understand they are not always right.
Team
“You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with”
A bad apple can spoil the bunch. As a team we must work together to improve upon our average.
Teach
“Give a man a fish, you’ll feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, you’ll feed him for a lifetime”
Knowledge is power and everyone wins what it’s shared.
Our Mission
Most companies don’t publish their mission statements… we’re not most companies. We believe complete transparency of our mission adds weight to each word, making our mission magnitudes more powerful than those that keep their mission locked in a filing cabinet. Easily available, posted for all customers and employees to read, adds in itself a sort of checks and balances that we encourage anyone to challenge.
Who we are
This is simple, we are you. KDG is a firearms company composed of hard-working Americans who love guns and believe in the values of freedom and the Constitution. It is our belief that everyone should have the right to protect and provide for themselves, their loved ones and their neighbors. We look beyond color, creed, sex and race to stare directly into the eyes of humanity, standing with you when the wolves come knocking. We are part of a proud community bringing substance to the tired, sick, poor and hungry. We are the huddled masses yearning to breathe free.
Our history
Our story begins 5 years after the FN SCAR was issued to operational units. In Maryland, mid 2014, Kinetic Development Group was founded by a group of individuals who came to the realization that you didn’t need to be an industry giant to produce unique, high quality firearms and accessories. Entering stage right, the MREX rail. A small company at the time, with only a few employees, soon started to grow. With the MREX gaining popularity among Special Operators, and the shooting community as a whole, greater demands for manufacturing were required. Soon after our inception, KDG moved out of Maryland and into a state that was once considered to be a mecca of firearms manufacturing, Connecticut.
Once settled in CT, this is when innovation took off. KDG introduced many unique product lines that disrupted the market, some of which we still offer today like Kinect & Sidelok. We expanded the SCAR product line, introduced AR parts and branched into many other firearm platforms since. We partnered with companies like Magpul & Radian Weapons to create the SAS stock & Talon Safety Selectors. Since 2014, we’ve also won several government contracts supplying the men and women who keep us safe with exceptional products and we’re not done yet.
