Panteao, Texas Armament & Technology And Aguila Announce Partnership

September 17th, 2015

Columbia, SC, September 15, 2015 – Panteao Productions is happy to announce a partnership with Texas Armament & Technology and Aguila Ammunition. Moving forward Panteao will be exclusively using Aguila ammunition during the filming of the Panteao instructional videos.

With each video title filmed, the one constant is the need to put rounds downrange. Whether Panteao is filming an instructor demonstrating a drill or shot placement, lots of live rounds are a necessity. Then there are the times the Panteao camera operators want that “money shot” and need to shoot high frame rate video. Again, more ammo must be sacrificed for the greater good. Equally important for Panteao is the quality of the ammunition. If the ammo doesn’t work because of a bad primer or other defect, then a scene must be reshot. Time is money on the production set.

“Aguila Ammunition is proud to be the exclusive ammunition sponsor of Panteao Productions instructional videos. Fernando, the production crew and the trainers work incredibly hard to produce the most informative, educational and valuable training tools available today,” said Kristi Drawe, Director of Marketing at Texas Armament & Technology.

“With Aguila, we know we have high quality ammo that is consistent and reliable for our filming purposes. Reliability means less reshoots and more efficiency when we’re filming,” said John Tormey, Director of Photography at Panteao.

DSEI – Suited Systems

September 17th, 2015

Suited Systems is a Latvian manufacturer of clothing and load carriage solutions.

  

Seen above are examples of the Tref (hot weather), Combat and Insulated Cold Weather uniforms.

 

Interestingly, they refer to their garments by level numbers in a similar fashion to PCU and ECWCS GEN III. For instance, the smock is referred to as Level 5. You can also see the interesting pocket flaps used on both jackets and trousers.

  

The Tref Combat Short is actually referred to as Level 1 so the Suited Solutions level nomenclature doesnt exactly mirror US use.

 

In addition to these colors, Suited Solutions covers almost everyone’s needs including Coyote, MultiCam, Olive, Black, and Navy Blue. If that’s not enough, they also offer user specified options.
