SIG SAUER - Never Settle

Paratore Enterprises, Inc is Proud to Partner with HIVIZ Shooting Systems, High-Quality Tritium Fiber-Optic Firearm Sights Assembled in the USA

September 22nd, 2021

Wellington, FL. – September 15, 2021 – Paratore Enterprises, Inc and HIVIZ Shooting Systems make tritium and fiber-optic sights widely available to law enforcement agencies and the US military.

Paratore Enterprises, Inc, a consultancy focused on the Defense and Tactical market for U.S. and Global companies is pleased to announce its collaboration with HIVIZ Shooting Systems. HIVIZ, a Laramie, WY. based manufacturer of high-quality fiber optic and tritium fiber-optic sights for handguns, shotguns and rifles, has been researching fiber optics, tritium, and the physiological effects on the shooters eye since 1996. Their sights offer high level illumination day or night for the most precise sight picture regardless of the conditions.  

Dalia Paratore, Founder and President of Paratore Enterprises, said “HIVIZ sights designs offer optimal light exposure to the sight to allow for a bright sight picture and faster target acquisition which is critical for fast aim and accuracy. Tritium fiber-optic sights are a must on modern handguns and rifles meant for police, military or self-defense use. They illuminate in the dark, making the sights visible in low to no-light conditions as well as give you a bright sight picture during the day. Bright and dependable, HIVIZ sights are designed for the most extreme use.”

Phil Howe, Founder of HIVIZ Shooting Systems, said “Our LiteWave H3 Technology using Tritium Fiberoptic LitePipes, offers 24-hour illumination.  We have continually researched and developed our sights so that our law enforcement officers and military have access to the best. While we depend on them to keep our streets safe, they can depend on the quality and reliability of HIVIZ sights that are assembled in the USA”

Paratore Enterprises, Inc will be offering all the HIVIZ Shooting Systems sights via their reseller consortium, making these products easy to acquire via government contracting vehicles such as GSA contracts.

Paratore Enterprises, Inc team has over 70 years of experience in providing product, strategy and consulting in government contracting and business management for organizations in the PPE, Defense and Tactical industry, as well as retail and commercial markets. We provide know-how in government contracting vehicles, vendor relations, trade show/event tactics, Dealer of Record implementation, competitive/differentiator analysis, Sales Leadership coaching and development.

May He Rest In Peace, and no one forget his sacrifice.

ALL Procedes from the sale of these crayons will go to Hunter Lopez’s family via the following fundraiser…. ESSTAC will match money taken in from the MDM 21 crayon sales.

DSEi 21 – British Army Systems

September 22nd, 2021

As I said in last week’s opener for the show, the UK military does a great job of supporting DSEi. Here are two of the systems they had on display, the Spiral 1 RPV and Watchkeeper UAV.

This Remote Patrol Vehicle is built by Marlborough Communications Limited and consists of their Mission Adaptable Platform System (MAPS) Unmanned Ground Vehicle (UGV). Spiral 1 is an experiment to determine future robotics requirements in these areas: resupplying platoon soldiers, reducing load burden on soldiers, casualty evacuation and power export for charging and supply of platoon level electronics.

Based on Elbit’s Hermes 450, the Watchkeeper UAV is fitted with an EO/IR sensor, has a cruising speed of 77 knots (143 km/h), can operate at an altitude of 16,000 feet, and can operate up to 150 km from the Ground Control Station, but multiple stations can be linked to extend the range.

DSEi 21 – Metravib Defence PEARL

September 22nd, 2021

PEARL is a weapon mounted system that localizes in real time, small arms fire based on sound waves generated by the shot.

Although it is mounted here to a carbine, it can also be mounted to a vehicle, mast, or directly to a building.

DSEi 21 – Taiga

September 22nd, 2021

Know as Taiga in Europe and Torraka in the US, this Swedish clothing company offers some great cold weather options. But one of their newer items at DSEi were these pants designed for Swedish Police.

You’ll notice the Grey color and the fabric is not FR but rather no-melt, no-drip.

DSEi 21 – Molliflex

September 22nd, 2021

Sometimes at a trade show you zig instead of zag? and when I turned left instead of right on my last say at DSEi I ran smack dab into the Intelligent Textiles Limited stand and their Molliflex cables.

The lady in the stand read my badge aloud, “soldier systems” and as she did it I looked at what they were doing and replied?, “you’re right in my wheelhouse.” Turns out, this is the gem I was searching for at DSEi, that one product I didn’t expect to find, but has great potential.

They’ve done such a good job with their Molliflex cable, that you probably didn’t even notice it in the photo at first or maybe even second glance.

The cable is just 2mm thick and can be woven into PALS compatible platforms. Due to how things it is, pouches can be added over Molliflex. Molliflex lays flat even when folded for 90 degree turns. In fact, it can be folded over two million times before the internal connection is broken. Additionally, it is IP68 rated. The connector is a standard Glenair Mighty Mouse which is Nett Warrior compliant.

Attachments to devices include an Ejector QD plug and Hardpoint attachment plate.

It is rated for power at 5amps,<50voltsDC1 and data at USB 2.0, 480 Mbps.

The outer material is DWR coated nylons me available in Multicam, Coyote, Flecktarn, CADPAT, and Black.

DSEi 21 – Platatac Tactical Trauma Shears

September 22nd, 2021

Platatac had a lot going on in their small kiosk within the Edgar Brothers stand. You could consider Platatac a one-stop tactical shop in their own right, but Edgar Brothers is the conduit for this Australian into UK government sales.

One of those many items is the Platatac Tactical Trauma Shears, shown above next a PMAG for scale. They’re a bit shorter? than standard trauma shears.

Made from Stainless Steel, these shears feature a serrated lower cutting edge, subdued coloring and a P.P. Plastic handle (for the Autoclave 143 Degree C requirement).

Finally, the price is great at A$15.

DSEi 21 – Brigantes “On The Man”

September 22nd, 2021

This wedge at the front of the Brigantes booth demonstrated a breadth of soldier systems capabilities offers by Brigantes and was used extensively to walk DSEi visitors through a variety of options.

Manikins were set up for Mountain & Arctic Warfare as well as Jungle and Temeprate zones.

The fabrics are from Milliken and include Milliken TactX Stretch fabric in Multicam which is a durable base fabric for performance finishes and Milliken’s best-in-class printing and shade matching.

 It is a lightweight 98% plain weave nylon with 2% spandex with a DWR (durable water repellent) finish. The elasticity of the fabric allows the wearer freedom of movement and gives more allowance in the action areas of the garment. The nylon face fabric offers great durability to the wearer who would be very often carrying and equipped with a heavy back pack and/or body armor plus the wearer will probably be carrying a weapon utilizing a harness/strap.

Additionally, it is highly breathable whilst at the same time providing a degree of weather protection. The garment can be used as part of a layering system or can be used as a stand-alone depending on the weather conditions. It’s a very tactile fabric and extremely pleasing and comfortable to wear.
