Here we are at Armasight Night Vision. I'm with Karl Erickson. Armasight's bringing out a
lot of new products. This year is no exception. A new line is a Drakos line: IR
lasers, visible lasers, IR illiminator. Walk me through what we've got here. Alright, first we've got
Drakos I. It is an invisible IR laser aiming device. It
runs off of a AA battery or a 123 lithium battery. You
have a Drakos II IR. Same thing.
IR aiming laser on this side. Over here, it has a IR illuminator which burns off of
the IR LED, very, very tough.
And then this one is Drakos II IR visible. You can tell by the name it has the
the IR laser on one side and culminated on the other side is the visible
red laser. What's
really awesome about this line here is these are all available to civilians that are out
of the house. Not only, I mentioned earlier of the interchangeability of the
123 or
a AA battery but what's really cool is I mentioned that it is
culminated at the factory. In other words, both lasers are already zeroed together, now how do you
zero them?
The old, miliatry PQ2, stuff like that. You would have to adjust windage
and elevation on each individual laser. What that does is there are very fine
adjustments on the inside. On this particular line, the Drakos line, your
windage and elevation adjustments are back here. You're actually doing the
adjustments on the mount itself and what that allows you to do is enclose these and
make it virtually bomb proof. This thing will hold a zero. It's very very tough.
Great, great, great homerun there for Armasight. In addition to that, I would
like to mention a wireless remote control that you can mount anywhere on your weapons
system, push that button, and it works.
In addition, for our new sight forces, Armasight's coming out with the Drakos Pro.
it has a focusable down infrared illuminator but also has culminated visible and
infrared aiming lasers. Fully adjustable just for different
intensities but to zero them.
Great, great tool.
It even has a strobe function that you can hit. So let say you're
in the middle of fight with a bunch of operators out there. Dots everywhere. You
can put yours on that strobe function, 'Alright, that's my dot right there. I can identify
where it is.' Nice. Also use it for pointing out for others.
Great, great series. One of the nicest things is that Armasight putting a product,
you know,
in everybody's hand. You have the operator system right here, you have
the advanced military, and if you're a civilian shooter, you know, hunter, whatever you're doing, you have a
line readily available to us and you're
just a casual shooter. So that's really great to see.
One thing that I just want to point out:
these are designed to go on the black guns and they will avoid the front sights. When
you mount this on a rail, if you mount on the top, it won't interfere with your front sight.
Throw it on the side, wherever you want it to go. Great line from Armasight. We've got the new Drakos
line. Karl, thanks again.
