iPhone 4,4S AN/PVS-14 Night Vision Adapter

US Night Vision Corporation

Roseville, CA --(Ammoland.com)- US Night Vision Corporation returns to the 2012 Shooting, Hunting and Outdoor Trade Show (SHOT Show)for the eleventh straight year.

More than 60,000 attendees and over 1,600 vendors will be on hand to view and demonstrate the latest shooting sports, outdoor, and law enforcement products. US Night Vision Corporation (USNV) is one of the top suppliers of tactical night vision and surveillance products to this industry and will be displaying at Booth #20105.

This year US Night Vision will be introducing a new product that will forever change the way night vision is used.

Our best selling system, the AN/PVS-14 is currently the most widely used night vision device in the world. It is the standard issue monocular for the U.S. Armed Forces and allies. The AN/PVS-14 is known for its durability and versatility. It only has one shortcoming, its ability to capture and share data; this is now a thing of the past.

The new iPhone Night Vision Adapter (Patent Pending) is one of the newest products to be introduced by the team at US Night Vision Corporation. This inexpensive lightweight accessory will make capturing and sharing images from any AN/PVS-14 simple and efficient. Most crimes occur at night, to now enable Officers to record and then transmit High Resolution Generation Three images or video over a 4G network in any light condition will greatly enhance the way every professional works in the field.

Chris Byrd commented, “The imagery I have on my personal iPhone right now is quite frankly stunning. The extremely high resolution night vision image can now be viewed in real time or recorded as a picture or video, it’s amazing. We are committed to supporting all the major brands: Apple, Samsung, Blackberry, Droid, and Palm just to name a few. We also have connectivity with certain thermal imaging devices and the imagery is the same, unbelievable.

Not to mention crystal clear audio recording, digital zoom, GPS tagging, Time/Date stamping, and all of this from the phone in my back pocket. Obviously we are very excited at the potential of this new product; specifically the enhanced digital capabilities this gives our optical night vision devices”.

US Night Vision Corporation, based in Roseville, CA, is a world leading supplier of night vision and tactical related products for the U.S. Military, international military forces, and U.S. law enforcement. To learn more, visit: http://www.usnightvision.com.

Leupolds VX-1 Riflescope

Leupold Tactical Optics

BEAVERTON, Ore. --(Ammoland.com)- Designed to provide hunters and shooters with best-in-class riflescopes, Leupold’s 2012 VX-1 line offers a variety of new features at prices that essentially remain the same as those for VX-I in 2011.

“VX-1 replaces the VX-I (Roman numeral designation) line and has features that were formerly reserved for higher-end Golden Ring® riflescopes,” said Pat Mundy, communications manager for Leupold & Stevens, Inc. “No other scopes in VX-1’s class can match its quality, performance and value, especially since we were able to hold the line on price.”

Leupold’s Quantum Optical System highlights the new VX-1. Tailored specifically for this riflescope line, the system includes lead-free, precision-ground and polished lenses with Leupold’s exclusive Multicoat 4 coatings for enhanced resolution, clarity and contrast. Carefully positioned in optimum relationship to each other, the lenses deliver up to 92 percent total light transmission.

Other features include finger-adjustable, ¼-MOA click windage and elevation dials that allow quick zeroing and easy adjustment in the field. The power selector ring incorporates a tactile indicator, making it easy to grasp and turn even while wearing gloves. A fast-focus eyepiece with a low-profile lock ring makes reticle focus easy to achieve and maintain.

VX-1 sports modern styling with a gold-plated Leupold medallion highlighting the exterior design. Like all Golden Ring riflescopes, VX-1 is waterproof, shockproof and fog proof.

Magnifications in the VX-1 line include 2-7x33mm, 3-9x40mm, 3-9x50mm and
4-12x40mm, with a variety of reticle and finish options for different hunting styles, game and ranges. The line also includes Shotgun/Muzzleloader and Rimfire models. Suggested retail prices range from $210 to $320.
