Based upon American Technologies Network's original PVS multi-purpose night vision monocular, ATN has now developed a unit designed with the same high quality optics and functionality in the PVS14-3 (1AA) for professionals in law enforcement and security. The new ATN NV monocular is designed for handheld, head/helmet mounting for hands-free use or can be adapted to fit a camera or camcorder.

The ATN PVS14-3 uses 3rd Generation Image Intensifier Tubes that have a micro channel plate, gas photocathode and a self-contained integral high-voltage power supply. The ATN 3rd Generation tubes combine increased resolution, signal-to-noise ratio and photosensitivity resulting in superior clarity.

The ATN PVS14-3 housed in a rugged body is environmentally rated as waterproof and complies with MIL-STD-810. This work horse of a multi-purpose NV monocular runs on one 1.5V AA battery for up to 50 hours making it a dependable tool for long stretches of surveillance.

Accessories with the ATN PVS14-3 (1AA) include an instruction manual, lens tissue, warranty card (2-year limited warranty), neck cord, lens cap, 1.5V AA battery, demist shield, head mount assembly and a sacrificial filter for a MSRP of $3,199.00.

KODABOW has teamed up with the KILLBILLIES OUTDOORS team- Jason Hanson and Patrick Elswick as a sponsor for the upcoming Killbillies Outdoors TV Show beginning its first season 25 July, 2011 on Versus TV. "We are excited to be onboard with the Killbillies" said Chuck Matasic, President at Kodabow. "These men deliver a unique viewpoint into the hunting experience and have exceptional confidence in our performance crossbows. They appreciate Kodabow as a USA company with a strong military and hunting orientation and it's a natural fit for us to connect with Jason and his extensive outdoor experience and Patrick, a Marine Corps decorated marksman."

Shooters are impressed with the rugged construction and balance of Kodabow crossbows. During cocking, the safety system automatically engages and the crossbow will not shoot in a dry-fire mode. "There is not a tougher or better built crossbow" said Killbillie Patrick Elswick. We are tough on equipment and push the limits with our hunting style and Kodabow far exceeds our expectations with reliability and astonishing accuracy."

NIMBY. NIMBY stands for "not in my backyard." But it could be right next door to you. What am I talking about? Drug dealing or making. For every advance law enforcement makes in stopping drug activity, the drug dealers and manufacturers try to out step them. Methamphetamine makers may move from an isolated trailer to a hotel to the house next door to you. Or they can make their deadly mix in small batches using a "shake and bake" method. When law enforcement officers are on the case, one of the first things they do is gather enough evidence to secure a warrant and put the culprit away. It is important for citizens to know that both the "house/trailer" and "shake and bake" methods produce a ticking time bomb of hazardous chemicals just waiting for an unsuspecting police officer. Morphix Technologies has produced a portable detection kit originally manufactured for military applications that works effectively to identify these toxic substances regardless of the methods used by the bad guys.

Morphix Technologies, developers and manufacturers of the Chameleon chemical detection system, has a simple, easy-to-use solution to determine if toxic chemicals are present. Not only can this simple method improve officer safety, but it also provides the critical evidential material necessary to convict the illegal drug manufacturer. Interested in finding out more on the many ways the Chameleon alerts you to potentially toxic chemicals while on the job? Contact LBM.  

The Alphawing™ Sunglasses are Revision's take on the classic aviator. A depart from their military line, these off-duty, non-ballistic shades feature the latest sunglass technology for ultra lightweight comfort.

The sunglass frame is acid etched from a single sheet of stainless steel. Crafting the frame from a single sheet adds strength, as opposed to traditional metal sunglass frames which consist of several wires brazed together-each of those junctions becomes a point of weakness for the system. The acid etch process also reduces weight; the filler metal used to braze multiple-piece frames together is eliminated, thus keeping the eyewear light and streamlined.

The lenses are ingeniously integrated into the frame. With most sunglasses, the lenses fit inside channels on the frame. We've done the reverse by putting locking channels into the lenses - the wire-thin frame then locks neatly and securely into the lens channel. This gives the eyewear its unique, wire-thin look and again, adds to weight reduction of the entire system

The sunglasses feature overmolded arms for comfort and no-slip grip. They also have adjustable, gripping nosepads for a tailored fit.

Strategos International announces the most highly evolved hand-held and weapon-mounted lighting tool; the PEL-6 Secutor, now available to tactical officers for close quarter conflicts and low light environments. Strategos was the first to recognize that operators required a complete paradigm shift in light tool operation and created a tool that would change the market and affect low-light training methodology.

The LedWave PEL-6 Secutor is the latest technology in illumination tools using feature-rich and intuitive electronics. The Secutor, named after a class of gladiator in ancient Rome, utilizes a CREE™ LED that produces over 120 Lumens of bright white light. Featuring a patented user interface of a rotating tailcap, the flashlight enables the user to program constant on modes thus enabling functions to be activated with one hand. The user does not have to alter his grip to push buttons or rotate bezel rings to achieve immediate tactical functionality.

The Secutor allows the operator to adjust the levels of light from low (variably and fully adjustable) to its unique high output disorienting strobe light. The original design was one of the first to incorporate rapid strobe disorientation into a handheld, everyday flashlight. The strobe function was designed to affect adversaries by reducing or eliminating their ability to maintain balance, peripheral vision and depth perception, thus allowing operators to act quickly and maintain situational awareness.

One of the questions that are frequently asked by potential users is "Aren't there quite a few lights out there that have the same functions as this light?" The answer to this question is "YES," however what clearly separates the SECUTOR from "the other lights" is that it is designed for those requiring a high quality lighting tool for high risk environments. Specifically as follows:

 

1. The Secutor user interface of the rear tailcap rotating selector switch to access each group of functions allows the user to change functions and operate the light with one hand leaving the other hand free to perform other tasks, i.e, operate firearm, etc.
2. The Secutor has the ability to get to the desired function very quickly in one step. In other words many lights out there have a series of button pushes or rotation of a separate switch at the bezel end of the light. These interfaces do not allow the operator to access any desired tactical function very quickly with one hand and require a series of rotations and/or "morse code" type series of button pushes to access the correct function . . . not ideal at all for tactical operations requiring very quick access to the needed lighting function in compressed timeframes.

The Secutor Momentary and Constant On switches are easily accessed with a one or two finger rotation of the tail cap. The unique lock-out system on the Secutor prevents the light being accidentally activated in high risk diminished light situations and also when storing the light. The Secutor is easily activated from the lock out position under duress with the snap of the thumb or fingers.

The new PEL-6 Secutor, the next generation of tactical light technology, features more stable electronics preventing unintentional battery drain and providing better programming stability. The new surface coating of the Secutor is made from a super durable ceramic that prevents scratches better than the previous model.

Now available at Strategos International's www.order-gear.com site, the new LedWave PEL-6 Secutor comes with a 2 year warranty on all parts and a lifetime warranty on the LED and at a more affordable price than the previous model, of only $189.99.

Having issues with your MPA Defender 22T or 22SST? Maybe you are experiencing a common problem with any .22 gun: the ammo you are shooting with.

.22LR ammo, due to the inconsistencies in shape, velocity, type, propellant, cases, etc. makes choosing ammo that will perform perfectly in a blowback designed weapon quite challenging. Combine this with the fact that you start off with ammo that comes from lots that can and do differ and you can see why firing any .22LR weapon consistently without failure is difficult.

MasterPiece Arms has shipped thousands of MPA22 pistols since their introduction in the spring of 2010. We occasionally receive calls from customers with feed issues, jams or other ammo related problems. Some have even returned the gun for repair due to one of these issues. Without fail, the guns returned have no issues and test fire without failure when loaded properly with one of the ammo choices shown below. We video tape each test, return the gun to the customer with our results and a copy of the video and typically, no further problems exist.

We spent months testing various grades of ammo that work best with the MPA22. Our ammo information, including the approved ammo list, is below.

We recommend new (not reloaded) quality ammunition. Quality ammunition helps to assure consistent performance. For best performance, we recommend the Ammo listed below. Due to the nature of the design of the MPA22's (designed originally as a Sub-Machine Gun), compression rates, timing, spring pressure, bullet geometry and profile, lubricity of the bullet and cartridge, and other factors, use of any ammo not on the approved list will cause less reliable feed/firing performance.

 

• Federal Series 745 Value Pack .22LR, Copper Plated HP, 1260 FPS, 36 Grain
• CCI Stingers, .22LR, High Velocity, Copper Plated HP, 1640 FPS, 32 Grain

Subsonic Ammo will not function properly in our weapon. Do not attempt to use this type ammo on any MPA Defender 22.
