Columbia, SC, July 2, 2020 – Panteao announces the release of a new video title with instructor Keith Garcia. Keith recently joined Panteao’s cadre of instructors. Keith Garcia is a California police officer having served for over 20 years, with a portion of his career serving as a SWAT team leader. Garcia is a highly regarded firearms instructor specializing in 3-Gun. To further hone his skills, Keith started competitive pistol shooting in 2004. In 2008 he began shooting 3-Gun. After that he never looked back. One of the highlights of his success in 3-Gun was becoming a 3-Gun Nation (3GN) champion, taking multiple wins on the famed Pro Series tour which aired on NBC Sports. Most notably, Garcia won the $55,000 cash purse at the 3-Gun Nation Championship held in Las Vegas during SHOT Show. In his career he has won multiple 3-Gun events all over the United States and abroad.
“Panteao is happy to be able to work with Keith Garcia,” said Fernando Coelho, President/CEO of Panteao Productions.

Each chapter includes insights into this dynamic sport including firearm transitions and abandonment techniques, loading on the clock, start position drills, speed training drills, strategy and much, much more. In partnership with 3-Gun Nation, this video features archived footage of the 3GN Pro Series matches. This footage shows Garcia’s techniques in action at the highest level of competition the sport has seen to date, as well as other top professional shooters on the clock.
Panteao greatly appreciates the support of the sponsors that help make this video happen: Oakley, Rio, Grizzly Targets, Hornady, Pact, American Trigger, and Warne.

Night Goggles, Inc. and TNVC are proud to celebrate Our Independence Day and the Heroes and Patriots who have made these United States the place it is today. Though this year has brought many unprecedented trials, unexpected events, and tests for this, Our Great Experiment in Freedom, Equality, and Self-Determination for all People, We stand firm in our resolve to this serve this great Nation and her People.
This 4th of July, we salute ALL patriots, and as such we are extremely proud to announce the addition of a brand new product line from Night Goggles, Inc. (NGI), the Night Goggles XLS Night Vision Systems, Gen. 3 White Phosphor Thin-Filmed NVGs in PVS-14, RNVG, and DTNVG varieties at some of the lowest prices ever seen for these kinds of capabilities – along with a brand new, redesigned website with a new look and feel and greatly improved user experience!
Night Goggles, Inc. is a sister company to TNVC, focused not only on armed professionals, but also hunters and outdoors enthusiasts of all types—at NGI and TNVC, we believe that all Americans should have access to the greatest night vision technologies available. To that end, we are introducing the NGI XLS line as an low cost (but not low quality!) option to allow even more people access to top-of-the-line, modern, Gen. 3 White Phosphor Night Vision Goggles. Declare Your Independence from Darkness with the NGI XLS Systems, the best value Gen. 3 WP system on the market at special introductory prices from July 3rd through July 15th!
• Night Goggles NGI/PVS-14-XLS – $2,350 Introductory Pricing (MSRP $2,455)
• Night Goggles NGI/RNVG-XLS – $5,599 Introductory Pricing (MSRP $5,799)
• Night Goggles NGI/DTNVG-XLS – $6,499 Introductory Pricing (MSRP $6,899)
These new Night Goggles, Inc. XLS Systems are built in-house by Night Goggles, Inc. at our Redlands, California facility using Elbit Systems of America—Night Vision (ESA-NV) F9415XLSH and F9400XLSH (no chopped pigtails here!) Generation 3, Auto-gated, Thin-Filmed White Phosphor image intensifier tubes with factory data records. All binocular systems are matched and collimated and come with TNVC and NGI’s industry leading Lifetime Limited Warranty, covering the housing and system for the lifetime of the unit, and image intensifier tubes for 10 years!
ESA-NV, based in Roanoke, Virginia, formerly the Night Vision division of Harris Corporation prior to their merger with L3 Technologies and previously known as ITT/Exelis is one of the premier manufacturers of Generation 3 image intensifiers, and has long been known as an industry leader in visual augmentation systems, including the AN/PSQ-20 ENVG Night Vision/Thermal Fusion system, and was recently awarded the contract for the United States Marine Corps’ Squad BNVG program.
While the image intensifier tubes being used in the NGI XLS systems do not necessarily meet the MIL-SPEC requirements image intensifier tubes and therefore considered “Commercial Spec” or “COM-SPEC” tubes, they are nevertheless still excellent performers. The very lowest performance figures approximate U.S. OMNI V performance, often considered to be the first of the modern “high performance” night vision, while the highest spec’ed units rival the best modern “super-tubes.”
However, even for these COM-SPEC units we WILL NOT compromise by purchasing lower cost, non-standard, non-MIL-SPEC optics and housing components from vendors looking to make a quick buck on products that “look the part,” but are unable to perform the same as MIL-SPEC components–the price savings is entirely in the image intensifiers.
While TNVC’s MIL-SPEC systems still represent the absolute best performance money can buy, these new Night Goggles systems are an excellent option for those who are looking for a lower-cost Gen. 3 White Phosphor NVG, and are sure to be popular with hunters, enthusiasts, and tactical shooters alike! NGI sources these tubes directly from ESA-NV, and because these XLSH tubes do not fully meet MIL-SPECs, we are able to pass on our savings to YOU, our customers by offering these Night Goggles XLS systems at some of the lowest prices ever for Gen. 3 WP systems. Non-MIL-SPEC tubes should mean non-MIL-SPEC prices!
