Warrior East 18 – Norotos Improved Situationally Adjustable Mount

Thursday, July 12th, 2018

Norotos unveiled their new Improved Situationally Adjustable Mount (I-SAM). It can be used in stand alone mode or as an adapter to other mounts.

F0769D8A-8EFE-4901-A9D1-357DFD752878

Originally developed for an international client’s specific Night Vision Device, Norotos modified the I-SAM to accept other, more common systems. For instance, they’ve developed a completely new J Arm which is more compact, lighter, and stronger.

BBCCFFB2-F878-4943-9AC5-B58A582DEB24

The secret is the clamp adapter which provides interface between device and Mount.

Additionally, they offer a clamp adapter interface for existing PVS-7s. This is particularly effective for 7s which are missing the mounting horn. Many LE organizations still have these devices, so this may be a good fit.

6E1091F4-AB3C-4409-9323-DE6D0828CF83

The I-SAM allows a PVS-14 to instantly be swapped from left eye to right eye and even stowed out of the way. Tension is operator adjustable and infinitely adjustable, with no presets, allowing for optimal customization.
