Franklin Armory Now Shipping New Binary Firing System for Grand Power Stribog SP9

Wednesday, May 15th, 2024

Franklin Armory®, Inc., one of America’s most innovative manufacturers of firearms and accessories, has begun shipping its latest Binary® trigger, the SP-S1 for Grand Power’s popular Stribog SP9 series of firearms. The new SP-S1 Binary® trigger is drop-in ready and will work with both the A1 and A3/A3G models of the Stribog SP9.

Franklin Armory’s patented Binary Firing System® (BFS™) enables reduced split times and tighter controlled pair groupings, which are important shooting metrics for both defensive and sporting applications. To see this latest product from the Binary Firing System® lineup in action, check out the video “Franklin Armory Introduces the Binary® Trigger for Stribog SP9.”

Like other BFS™ offerings from Franklin Armory for rifles and pistol-caliber carbines, SP-S1 is a three-position selectable trigger: Position One, safe; Position Two, traditional semiautomatic; Position Three, Binary® mode.

In Binary® mode, a single round is fired when the trigger is pulled and a single round is fired when the trigger is released at the user’s discretion. As only a single round is fired for each function of the trigger, Franklin Armory’s patented Binary Firing System® has been consistently defined as a semiautomatic trigger by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.

One of the revered safety features incorporated into all Franklin Armory BFS™ triggers is the ability to cancel the release round. To cancel the release round on SP-S1, simply move the ambidextrous selector paddle located on either side of the receiver from Binary® position to the “semi” or “safe” position before releasing the trigger.

MSRP for Franklin Armory’s SP-S1 Binary® trigger is $499.99.

For more information about SP-S1 and other innovative Franklin Armory products like the newly announced G-S223 and G-S173 Binary® trigger and slide kits for Glock® 22 and Glock® 17, visit FranklinArmory.com.

B.E. MEYERS & Co Unveils MILR the World’s First Ballistically Disturbed Infrared Laser Fire Control System at SOF Week 2024

Monday, May 6th, 2024

May 5, 2024 (Redmond, WA) – B.E. Meyers & Co., Inc., a Defense Technology Manufacturer specializing in advanced photonic solutions for military, law enforcement, consumer, and aerospace applications worldwide, is proud to unveil the MILR™ MiniatureIntelligent Laser Rangefinder, which includes the world’s first ballistically disturbed infrared laser Fire Control System.

Based on a revolutionary new digital Vertical-Cavity, Surface Emitting Laser (VCSEL) diode core, the MILR™ supports the widest range of platforms and applications that allows for a singular, lightweight, and comprehensive solution for advancedranging, aiming, illuminating, and ballistic solutions. Optimized for machinegun use and fully feature capable for precision rifles as well as remote weapon stations, the MILR™ is the only device that enables full day and night ballistic capability from a weapons platform without the use of a clip-on night vision device.

Capability Development
To ensure a decisive advantage during night operations and increase survivability and lethality of the operator, a novel approach to range finding, infrared illumination, and targeting via a new fire control system was proposed by B.E. Meyers & Co. The MILR™Miniature Intelligent Laser Rangefinder is a Class 3B/3R combination high-power infrared aiming and illumination device with visible pointer, as well as range-finding ballistic computer (via the Applied Ballistics™ integrated software) that can both provide holds on-screen for use with a day-optic or actively declinate the disturbed infrared aiming laser for ballistic compensation when using head-borne night vision devices.

A new laser-based variable divergence illuminator provides ideal beam clarity over an extended application range while also decreasing response times in near and mid-range engagements. The system is designed for combat environmental criteria to include immersion, recoil, and thermal shock, while maintaining position stability and system functionality.

Technology and Design
The technology and functionality behind the MILR™ have been in development for the last several years and support a design concept which allows for complete digital manipulation of all key system controls, to include power, divergence, VIS/IR, ranging,mode/function, and more. As the power and divergence controls on the MILR™ are completely digital there is no optical ormechanical movement within the system apart from azimuth and elevation boresight controls. Divergence and power are synchronized for best pointing and illumination effect and are continually and instantly at the operator’s discretion through the onboard control configurations.

The design and functionality of MILR™ is based on its ability to achieve digital laser movement within the system, specifically theinfrared pointer, which internally declinates to create a ballistic solution for the shooter while under NVGs. The introduction of this first Disturbed Infrared Aiming Laser (DIAL™) capability allows for true day-to-night extended-range overmatch for weapons platforms traditionally limited in effectiveness during night engagements. Additionally, the MILR™ uses a step-through ballistic setup interface that provides ballistic computer capability to user groupsnot previously trained to use a ballistic solver data, while retaining compatibility for traditional long-form profile setups.

Platforms and Applications
The versatility and ruggedness of the MILR™ design lends itself for use on most individual weapon systems, precision rifle platforms,crew-served weapon systems, and remote weapon stations as well as other integrated solutions. Additionally, MILR™ seamlessly communicates with Kestrel Instruments® wind and weather meters for expeditious host-weapon data download. Our Disturbed Infrared Aiming Laser (DIAL™) technology is collaboratively partnered with Applied Ballistics™, Bluetooth™, and Unity™ Tactical, providing a revolutionary technical concept in a rugged, ergonomic, lightweight, and combat-capable device.

Features and Specifications
By orchestrating these best-in-class features and combining them with our next generation VCSEL core, the technological versatility inherent in MILR™ allows for an exceptionally enhanced multi-platform visible/infrared aiming and illumination laser solution. The MILK™ series of laser rangefinders truly create a new category of fire control systems, and like all B.E. Meyers & Co. products, are proudly Made in the USA.
Interim specifications can be found here: bemeyers.com/MILR

Options and Availability
The MILR™ series of laser systems will be available in either green or red visible wavelengths, and color options of black and flat dark earth, as well as custom configurations for certain orders. MILR™ is scheduled for multi-market production release in 2025 via select B.E. Meyers & Co., Inc. registered resellers in the US and internationally. Market competitive pricing and additional details will be announced in advance of release.

TNVC Partners with Envision Technology: MARS (Miniature Advanced Rangefinder System) Family, MARS-Lc (Light, Commercial) In-Stock Now!

Monday, April 29th, 2024

Redlands, California—

TNVC is extremely proud and extremely pleased to announce that we have partnered with Envision Technology, LLC of Manchester, New Hampshire as a stocking distributor of the MARS Miniature Advanced Rangefinder System family, starting with the MARS-Lc (MARS–Light, Commercial), in-stock and ready to ship now with a retail cost of $9,725!

tnvc.com/shop/envision-technology-mars-lc-commercial-laser-range-finder-lrf

While Envision Technology, founded in 2019 in Manchester, New Hampshire is not a household name to most consumers and even many end-users, the team behind Envision includes some of the most brilliant minds and most experienced and well-respected designers, engineers, and staff in the entire Night Vision / Visual Augmentation Systems and some of them have touched the lives of every professional night vision user since the days when the AN/PAQ-4 reigned supreme.

In their own, more modest words, Envision was “founded on the principles of listening to the user’s needs, developing innovative products with an understanding of those needs, and focusing on a streamlined development and manufacturing philosophy… and recognize that our success depends on the mission success of our customers.” While the folks at Envision don’t much like the limelight, their products and services and capabilities are some of the most sought after of those “in the know” in the VAS and end-user industry, manufacturing some of the most advanced products and used by some of the most elite organizations in existence, and at the cutting edge night vision technology.

envision-tek.com

Not only will TNVC be a stocking distributor for Envision’sexisting MARS and MARS-L (as well as their corresponding, unrestricted* commercial variants, designated by the lower-case “c” suffix), but for several exciting new products currently under development expected to be released throughout the year and into 2025.

*ITAR restrictions still apply

The Envision MARS-L is a miniature, weapon-mounted, laser rangefinder, based on the architecture of the MARS Miniature Advanced Rangefinder System currently in use by US Special Operations Forces, and can deliver precision range finding capabilities with a >2,000m range using a 1,550nm Class I laser, as well as >3,000 on 30% NATO targets as well as an integrated Applied Ballistics solver as well as Bluetooth capability to interface with external devices.

With a similar form-factor and footprint to the USSOCOM LA-23/PEQ MAL/SAL carbine aiming laser and weighing under 8 ounces, the MARS-L’s extremely compact size makes it extremely versatile, allowing the end-user to mount the device in their desired location with minimal impact to the host weapon system or user interface, and the rear-mounted LED display screen can not only be adjusted for brightness, but the displayed text can be rotated to allow easy reading in top or side-mounted applications, and can be set for Imperial, Metric, or mixed units.

The MARS-L’s control interfaces and ergonomics integrate and combine some of the most popular design interfaces from different devices, and is almost shockingly intuitive to use, with an easy-to-locate and easy-to-manipulate mode selector dial, as well as three deceptively large and distinct feeling rubberized “FIRE” and adjustment / selection buttons that effectively allow the end-user to control any of the MARS family’s many functions and capabilities without requiring a sharp learning curve to get used to complex switchology and button press sequences.

The MARS-L also comes with a three-button remote that connects with an AN/PAS-29B ECOTI-style 7-Pin locking connector interface that replicates the onboard functionality without forcing the user to reach up to the device, allowing them to maintain both optimal device and hand positioning without compromising functionality.

Even the polymer emitter port-cover is an exercise in simplicity, ingenuity, and end-user focused design and flips to the side of the device, and capable of mechanically latching in both the open and shut position without putting excessive or unnecessary tension on a delicate rubber retaining strap, reducing both the chances of breakage, or unwanted movement / obstruction of the laser emitters due to shifting or movement of the emitter cover.

The single, laterally mounted CR123 battery compartment sits immediately behind the emitter port-cover [when in the open position], and again, is a triumph of human-factors and integrated systems design, being cleanly recessed into the overall device footprint without the need for extra snag-points and protuberances that cause the device to have a larger footprint than it may initially appear to have, yet it is easy to use and easily accessible, and positioned in such a way where it is unlikely to interfere with other weapon or device controls and/or require unnatural contortions (or foul language) to remove or replace the battery.

In use, the MARS-L also features Speed, Precision, and Rapid Scan rangefinder modes, allowing the end-user to adjust the way the MARS-L interprets returns to maximize effectiveness in multiple different environments and conditions, as well as haptic feedback during rangefinding, silently alerting the user of a successful return, and an output adjustable visible laser for boresighting–the onlydifference between the MARS-L and the MARS-L, Commercial (MARS-Lc) is that the MARS-L uses a 38 mWClass 3B “Restricted Power” red visible aiming / boresighting laser, while the MARS-Lc utilizes an unrestricted 3.5mW Class 3R visible laser–BOTH devices use the same Class I 1550nm range-finding laser, which cannot be seen by most commonly available night vision imaging systems.

The Envision Technology MARS-Lc (MARS-Light, Commercial) is available now for purchase and in-stock and ready to ship at TNVC:

tnvc.com/shop/envision-technology-mars-lc-commercial-laser-range-finder-lrf

The Class IIIB MARS-L, and MARS are also available for order now by qualified military or law enforcement customers by calling or e-mailing TNVC.

MARSc availability is coming soon… stay tuned for more!
