HRF / OVERBORE SKIFF

greg@tier-1.co.za — Mon, 04 Nov 2024 09:20:58 +0000

*DOES NOT INCLUDE THE NIGHT HEIGHT MICRO*

The Original Modular Laser Diveboard

The SKIFF laser riser allows users to mount their laser directly to our Night Height Micro mount, removing the need for a modified grip on 12.5″ and shorter barrel platforms. This allows the use of pressure pads and tape switches on the rail without blocking the laser functions or causing direct shadowing.

Riser height has been specifically designed to accommodate all popular lasers at their maximum illuminator divergence while also minimizing illumination splash onto the platform.

Modlite – Modbutton™ Lite (NGAL/LA23)

greg@tier-1.co.za — Wed, 30 Oct 2024 14:24:03 +0000

ModButton Lite is a smaller lighter weight cousin to the original ModButton. The switch features the same momentary only activation as the original ModButton. It also features the same high power cable and switch from ModButton but in a slightly smaller package without the integrated mount. The switch is made from injection molded plastic and fully potted to provide extra degree of protection in harsh environments and ensures a durable long lasting switch.

The N-GAL/LA23 variant is our same Modbutton Lite, but utilizes an L3/Harris OEM 7” cable lead, making it compatible with the L3 Next-Gen Aiming Laser (NGAL/LA23) currently in use by SOCOM and other Federal agencies. We have no documentation on compatibility with other IR aiming lasers. It is only available in 7” lead variants in Tan color.

The package includes the switch PIC mounting rails and mounting hardware only no tail cap is supplied. Additionally an adapter is also available for MLOK rails here.

Install torque for rail grabber bolts is 5 Inch-lbs

Made in the USA

Weight: 1.8oz
Dimensions: 1.0 × 3.8 × 5.7 in
Mounting Side: Left or Right
Color: Tan Only

Modlite – ModButton™ Lite (Laser Plug)

greg@tier-1.co.za — Wed, 30 Oct 2024 14:11:14 +0000

The plug is compatible with PEQ15, DBAL, BE Meyers® MAWL and Wilcox® RAIDx lasers ONLY.

The package includes the switch PIC mounting rail and mounting hardware only. Additionally an adapter is also available for MLOK rails here.

Note: For most setups the 4.5in variant is enough cable to reach the device from the top rail.

Modlite – ModButton™ Lite (Dual Lead)

greg@tier-1.co.za — Wed, 30 Oct 2024 14:10:29 +0000

ModButton Lite is a smaller, lighter-weight cousin to the original ModButton. The switch features the same momentary only activation as the original ModButton. It also features the same high power cable and switch from ModButton but in a slightly smaller package without the integrated mount.

The laser plug is compatible with PEQ15, DBAL, BE Meyers® MAWL and Wilcox® RAIDx lasers ONLY.

The Dual Lead variant is our same Modbutton Lite, but has both a Surefire®/Modlite and Crane Laser lead. This Modbutton Lite activates both leads simultaneously, allowing for an excellent vis override functionality of both white light and visible laser. There is no way to select a single lead for activation. For that, we recommend the Unity TAPS SNYC. Available here.

ModButton Lite utilizes a patented Unity Tactical design which supports power delivery needed by the next generation of high output weapon lights like Modlite. A Unity-built Surefire®compatible cable lead allows ModButton Lite to be backwardly compatible with all Surefire®, Arisaka, and Modlite Scout bodies as well as Surefire UE and DS00 tail caps. If constant on is a requirement we recommend using a SF DS00 tail cap which can be found here.

One problem that exists today is older legacy switches are not able to pass the current needed to run current and future generation lights. These older switch designs do not allow Modlite light heads to run at full power. Typically these switches reduce output by 15-20%. ModButton Lite utilizes an updated plug design as well as improved electronics that allow the ModButton Lite to output at full power so all the lumens and candela can be put to good use.

The package includes the switch PIC mounting rails and mounting hardware only no tail cap is supplied. We recommend the Surefire UE or DS00 tailcap which can be found here. Additionally, an adapter is also available for MLOK rails here.

Note: For most setups the 4.5in variant is enough cable to reach the device from the top rail.

UNITY TACTICAL SPARK

greg@tier-1.co.za — Fri, 18 Oct 2024 08:34:42 +0000

SPARK is a tiny, disposable marking light designed to provide rapid visibility of personnel or objects. A completely sealed unit, SPARK is waterproof for function in a multitude of austere environments. It attaches to surfaces with a hook and loop backing. When paired with the SPARK CAGE, it can weave onto webbing or snap onto metal surfaces with magnets. Pressing the center of the silicone housing, SPARK will cycle through its output functions. The constant feature is good for low light training while the blink output acts as an emergency strobe beacon.

Nocturn Industries Katana BNVG-Photonis WP

Terry Theron — Thu, 26 Sep 2024 09:32:04 +0000

ABOUT THE UANVB “KATANA”

The Ultralight Articulating Night Vision Binocular (UANVB “Katana”) remains the lightest binocular on the market, with on board power, weighing in less than 15 oz fully built. The articulating design allows for individual pod shut off, enabling the user to use one or both eyes while utilizing weapon mounted, non-passive aiming systems. End users will be able to mount and dismount vehicles easier with the low profile of the UANVB when stowed. The UANVB features the original Friction Lock Interpupillary Adjustment feature so you can set it and forget it with no additional tools. This unit may be lightweight but does not compromise strength as it exceeds MIL-STD-810G and had been drop tested beyond NATO or TOP standards (6 feet to concrete in 6 different orientations on a single device).

About Us
