Warrior Expo – Daniel Defense

Wednesday, March 5th, 2014

At SHOT Show, Daniel Defense introduced their Rock & Lock attachment system for Mil Std 1913 rails. They’re showing it at Warrior Expo as a simple to use means to attach accessories to M4s. This new design moves from a separate clamp and mount to a single-piece design.

This is the 1 O’Clock offset mount and as you can see, it’s a one-piece design with a single, flat-tip tightening bolt.

This is the new Offset Flashlight mount. This model is a bit more streamlined with the light closer to the boreline.

And this little beauty is a Rail Mount QD Swivel Attachment Point. I don’t know how many times I’ve picked up a carbine with nowhere to attach a sling. This QD Attachment Point is anti-rotation and fits right to the rail. A few twists of a screwdriver and it’s in place, where you want it.

These are low cost solutions that allow the shooter to quickly adapt new accessories to his carbine. Check them out.

Dual Powered Aviation Mount or DPAM is the latest thing from Wilcox Ind. Designed as a replacement for the issue plastic ANVIS mount, it is manufactured from Aircraft grade aluminum and glass filled polymer. In addition to internal power it also offers a low power indicator option. Naturally, it can also connect to the issue rear mounted battery pack.

Warrior Expo – MATBOCK

Wednesday, March 5th, 2014

After a long wait, I understand that the Rigid Lightweight Integrated Field Transport (R-LIFT) will finally be available for order. Weighing in at 6.5 lbs, it breaks down for storage making it a great option for a small unit rigid litter.

Warrior Expo – Lighter Than Air Systems

Wednesday, March 5th, 2014

Imagine having your own aerostat. That’s exactly what LTAS offers. It can support not only EO/IR sensor pods but also communications relay.

Additionally, they offer a mast mounted ISR system as well as a unique tethered rotary wing unmanned aircraft system. Available in two models the Electric Tethered Aerial Platform and Liquid Tethered Aerial Platform are both tethered for fuel as well as data via the umbilical. That’s right, the launcher pumps either electricity or a combination of fuel and air to the UAS so it can stay aloft indefinitely. It can also stay aloft while the trailer mounted launcher is moving so it can be integrated into a convoy for overmatch and comms relay.

Wednesday, March 5th, 2014

Triad Mil

US Night Vision’s Triad is a Mil Standard-810G and ESD compliant multi-beam weapon laser. The Triad houses a covert IR aiming laser, Focusable IR illuminator, and Green aiming laser. The lasers and illuminator are slaved to one another and controlled with a single set of low-profile windage and elevation dials. Additionally, alll three lighting sources can be operated individually or in various combinations. The Triad is activated via an included remote cable pressure pad or the built-in single tap button located on top of the housing body.

The low profile Triad is designed to withstand submersion as well as repeated heavy recoil. An integral Picatinny rail allows for additional accessories, and a quick detach throw lever mount, which can be user adjusted and locked to prevent accidental detachment, allows for rapid removal of the Triad.

The Triad is powered with 1 CR123 with a run time of 4 hours. Restricted to LE/Military.

Triad Civ

US Night Vision also offers a C1 Civilian Legal variant of the Triad. The Civilian and LE/Mil share many of the same features and controls, however the Civilian variant does feature these differences:

– Reduced power IR laser – capable of visibility out to 200 meters
– Reduced power Green laser – capable of visibility out to 400 meters
– Capable of run time of 6 hours on 1 CR123 battery
– 30% reduction in price when compared to LE/Mil variant
