UNITY Tactical Updates Its Line of FAST Red Dot Mounts with the FAST Micro-SB

Friday, April 25th, 2025

New Micro-Footprint Mount Features Fully Adjustable Built-in Back-Up Iron Sights

Broussard, LA—UNITY™ Tactical, a designer of components that integrate tactical systems and optimize the human factor, announced the launch of the FAST™ Micro-SB, its third mount built with a micro footprint. Designed specifically for the Aimpoint® CompM5, CompM5b, and Duty RDS mini red dot sights, the FAST Micro-SB features built-in fully adjustable front and rear back-up iron sights (BUIS).

The Micro-SB positions these taller mini red dot sights at an optical centerline of 2.26 inches and is compatible with UNITY’s entire line of FAST FTC magnifier mounts. While the FAST Micro-SB mount is designed for the same mini red dot sights as the FAST Micro-S, it features back-up iron sights like the FAST Micro. This allows users to take advantage of UNITY’s Flip-to-Center (FTC) mounts without sacrificing the use of back-up iron sights.

The built-in BUIS is a non-standard height that does not allow for compatibility with a traditional front post, so the front post is factory installed. The integrated BUIS are visible under all of UNITY’s FTC mounts.

“The FAST Micro-SB brings increased efficiency, saving space and allowing additional compatibility” said Mike Roth, VP of business development for UNITY Tactical. “For those Aimpoint customers who are required or prefer to run BUIS but want to integrate flip-to-center magnification, the FAST Micro-SB is an ideal solution.”

The mount comes standard with a two cross bolt rail clamp but is also compatible with the FAST QD Lever (sold separately). The FAST Micro-SB is manufactured to the same high standards as all UNITY products, utilizing 7075-T6 aluminum with a Type III hard coat anodized finish. The FAST Micro-SB is available in black and FDE and includes a lifetime warranty. It retails for $205 and is available for purchase now through authorized UNITY dealers and on unitytactical.com.

Safariland Announces Newly Developed Products for Axon Signal Sensor

Thursday, April 24th, 2025

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Safariland®, a brand of The Safariland Group, a leading global provider of safety products designed for the public safety, military, professional and outdoor markets and one of Cadre Holdings, Inc.’s (NYSE: CDRE) (“Cadre”) key brands, is excited to announce its enhanced collaboration with Axon Enterprise, Inc. (“Axon”) in developing the newest suite of holsters and accessories compatible for use with Axon Signal Sensor.

This joint effort delivers purpose-built technology that supports public safety agencies by enabling hands-free activation of Axon body-worn and fleet cameras, helping to ensure critical moments are captured while allowing officers to focus on the task at hand. Signal Sensor, formerly known as Signal Sidearm, wirelessly alerts nearby Axon cameras to begin recording the moment a firearm is drawn from a compatible holster, for both real-time situational awareness and transparent post-incident documentation of Use of Force (UoF) incidents.

Coming this year, 17 updated holsters from Safariland’s 6000 series will be released with dedicated integration for Signal Sensor, along with eight newly developed firearm fits for the recently introduced Ballast Duty Holster. Safariland will also introduce six non-firearm UoF pouches compatible with Signal Sensor allowing integration with equipment, such as Oleoresin Capsicum (OC) spray, batons and handcuffs. The Signal Sensor unit can also be installed on a range of existing in-market holsters using an adapter designed for backward compatibility.

Safariland has worked closely with Axon to simplify the process of ensuring holster compatibility with Axon’s Signal Sensor technology. With a wide range of adaptable holsters, agencies can seamlessly integrate Signal Sensor units either within the holster or mounted, using a bracket. Whether an agency is already equipped with Signal Sensor technology or planning future implementation, achieving compatibility is now easier than ever.

“This collaboration sets a new standard for integrated duty gear technology and reflects our commitment to officer safety and innovation,” said Eric Gasvoda, Vice President and General Manager of Duty Gear for Safariland. “We are proud to partner with Axon in delivering a solution that enhances both situational awareness and accountability.”

“Working with Safariland allows us to push the boundaries of what’s possible in connected public safety technology and expand holster coverage to protect more lives in more places,” said Craig Trudgeon, Senior Vice President of Product at Axon. “This collaboration enables us to broaden our coverage to include additional models in the future — delivering smarter, more seamless tools that empower officers and build trust within communities.”

Safariland and Axon will announce the integrated holster collaboration in Phoenix during the 2025 Axon Week, April 22-25. Axon Week is a premier event focused on public safety technology and innovation.

Specifically engineered to operate within European short-range device frequency bands, the 4-EU model addresses the escalating need for region-specific, adaptable counter-drone solutions across various sectors worldwide. In addition to providing users with the option to jam unwanted drones across a variety of EU-specific frequencies, the Dronebuster® 4-EU also incorporates an optional PNT (Position, Navigation, and Timing) attack mode to neutralize satellite-controlled drones across the GPS, Galileo, GLONASS, or BeiDou constellations.

“The versatility of Dronebuster® 4-EU empowers security personnel across sectors to effectively counteract unauthorized drones,” added George Schwartz, EVP of Products at DZYNE. “Our commitment to innovation ensures that we continue to meet the diverse and evolving needs of our global customers.”

DZYNE’s growing international impact is underscored by a recent multi-million-dollar contract award for Dronebuster® from an undisclosed allied customer — further validating the system’s global relevance and operational value.

“The proliferation of drones has introduced complex security challenges globally,” said Matthew McCue, CEO of DZYNE Technologies. “The Dronebuster® 4-EU provides security teams and infrastructure operators with adaptable, region-specific protection across diverse environments.

DZYNE’s Counter-UAS portfolio has rapidly become one of the most trusted and operationally proven defense solutions worldwide. With more than 2,200 Dronebuster® units sold globally—including over 1000 actively deployed with U.S. Armed Forces—Dronebuster® is officially recognized by the U.S. Department of Defense as a Program of Record, further affirming its operational reliability and mission-critical role in counter-UAS operations. Alongside Dronebuster®, DZYNE’s broader C-UAS suite—including Sawtooth, ASP, and the newly introduced Dronebuster-FS—is currently deployed across 50+ countries, protecting critical infrastructure, military bases, borders, and high-threat environments.

The success and widespread adoption of these systems directly inspired the development of the Dronebuster® 4-EU—a region-specific model tailored for compliance with European short-range device (SRD) frequency bands. Building on DZYNE’s global operational footprint, the 4-EU delivers enhanced wearability, flexible deployment configurations, and integrated detection capabilities for mission-critical drone defense across European civil, military, and infrastructure applications.

Paired with its Detect, Track, Identify, and Mitigate (DTIM) wearable solution, a single user can detect drones out to 7km away and accurately defeat out to1.5km or more.

Production Expansion to Meet Diverse Needs

In response to the growing demand across these sectors, DZYNE is scaling up operations at its Portland, Oregon manufacturing facility, including:

Savage Arms Debuts AC30 B.O.B. AccuCan Suppressor

Wednesday, April 23rd, 2025

WESTFIELD, Massachusetts – April 22, 2025 – Savage Arms®, an iconic firearm manufacturer, is debuting a new addition to its popular line of AccuCan suppressors. The AC30 B.O.B. (Back Over Barrel) suppressor is the perfect option for shooters looking to enhance balance and reduce overall firearm length while shooting suppressed.

The B.O.B. design partially encloses the barrel, allowing for more internal volume and minimizing the increase of overall rifle length. These modifications improve sound suppression and reduce point-of-impact shift, leading to better accuracy.

“The AC30 B.O.B. is a great addition to our suppressor line that gives hunters and shooters performance advantages and options,” said Beth Shimanski, Director of Marketing at Savage Arms. “This design and option is attractive to a wide variety of hunters as it provides a significant reduction in noise, is more compact, rated for all .30 caliber options and also reduces felt recoil. Competitive shooters will enjoy similar benefits of reduced noise and recoil, without sacrificing maneuverability.”

At a weight of only 13.7 ounces and fully serviceable in the field, the new AccuCan is perfect for backcountry hunting or all-day shooting excursions. Capable of shooting any .30 caliber cartridge up to .300 Winchester Magnum, it is compatible with a wide variety of firearms including most Savage firearms with factory installed Proof Research barrels.

A standout feature of the AC30 B.O.B. is the revolutionary MonoKore design. This approach leads the suppressor to reduce both flash and recoil, giving shooters a more enjoyable and accurate experience at the range or in the field.

Product No. / Description / MSRP

11704 / AC30 B.O.B. (Back Over Barrel) AccuCan Suppressor / $999
