TK Industries was a manufacturer of infantry weapons.[1]
Overview
Formerly known as Triesting-Kelang Weapons Industries,[1] the company's best known products were the Sea Eagle Needler Pistol, the TK Assault Rifle, and the TK "Enforcer" semi-automatic pistol.[2][3]
On 29 December 3070, the company was involved in an huge scandal related to fraud in Arms Sale when Alastair McGinley from Democracy Now! was arrested with a huge cache of the company's weapons in his home on Novara. TK's representative on Novara was also taken into custody for questioning, although no formal charges had been brought at that time. The rifles found at McGinley's home were still in their original shipping crates with manifests attached. Far from being stolen, the weapons had been purchased on the open market by a representative of McGinley's who'd purported himself as a representative of the Novaran Militia. As McGinley didn't sit on the subcommittees that control the militia's budget, it seemed very unlikely that this was the truth. There had been no statement issued by the TK Corporation about the possible illegal arms sale, but if they followed past practices, the Novaran TK factor would most likely be held responsible and further charged with defrauding his employer.[4]
