American Technologies Network, Corp. Introduces New Flashlight Series
American Technologies Network, Corp.’s (ATN) new Javelin Series J600 and J600W tactical flashlights are hard-working, high-intensity lights for weapon-mounted or hand-held duty for law enforcement, security professionals, home security and outdoor enthusiasts. Both flashlight bodies are made from aircraft-grade aluminum, keeping the weight light without sacrificing strength. The ATN flashlights’ LED bulb systems provide a flawless white beam with a powerful 600 lumens for both the J600 hand-held and for the J600W weapons-mounted/hand-held lights. The flashlights are operated with a twist for constant on or a tailcap button for momentary on. Both lights mount easily to any rail mounting system.
The ATN J600 body casing is constructed from heavy duty 6061-T6 aluminum alloys providing it with enough strength to be used as a glass breaker or self-defense in case of an emergency. This hand held flashlight with an MSRP of $199.00 is a perfect tool for law enforcement, security professionals and home security, as well as outdoorsmen and women.
The ATN J600W flashlight can be hand-carried or attached to any Picatinny/standard Weaver mount. Another unique feature of the ATN J600W is the modular front bezel which is designed to provide a powerful defense in close quarter combat. Law enforcement personnel can also use the bright white light of the J600W as a momentary less-lethal, defensive tool causing approximately 10 seconds of temporary transient blindness in an assailant. The ATN Javelin J600W flashlight comes with a tactical control wire and has an MSRP of $269.00.

GLOCK, Inc. Releases New Rough Textured Frame Pistols: G19 RTF2 and G23 RTF2
Smyrna, GA, November 5 2009: At the National Association of Sporting Goods Wholesalers (NASGW) Meeting/Expo GLOCK, Inc. released its two newest pistols. The GLOCK Model 19 in 9×19 and the G23 in .40 caliber are now offered with the optional Rough Textured Frame (RTF2). The G19 RTF2 and the G23 RTF2 join the G17 and the G22 as pistol models offered with the new textured grip.
The NASGW is comprised of wholesalers, manufacturers, and independent sales reps – both national and international – all of whom are primarily involved with hunting and shooting sports, equipment and accessories. The NASGW Meeting/Expo provides an unmatched educational, marketing and communications opportunity for the hunting and shooting sports wholesaler, manufacturer and sales professional.
The RTF2 finish was developed after direct feedback from the United States Special Operations community. There are many instances where the environment offers difficult to manage wet and humid conditions. In order to continue providing cutting edge solutions, GLOCK developed the RTF2. The newly designed frame incorporates hundred of “polymids,” or miniature spikes on the front, rear, and sides of the grip resulting in a definite increase in traction.
“GLOCK has heard its valued customers. GLOCK knows it must continue to evolve in order to remain relevant in future markets. These new pistols demonstrate that fact,” commented GLOCK, Inc. Vice President Josh Dorsey. “Additionally, GLOCK will introduce the “next generation” of GLOCK Pistols incorporating our customer’s demands at the upcoming SHOT Show; come visit us at the GLOCK booth.”
The G19 and G23 are two of the most popular GLOCK models. The G19 9×19 compact is widely used all over the world. In addition, the G23 in .40 caliber is quite popular with both law enforcement and private individuals as a back up or concealed carry firearm. Adding the RTF2 finish to these compact models increases the options for law abiding individuals and organizations.
Along with the new RTF2 finish, each of these GLOCK pistols have the same time tested “Safe Action” system, durable exterior finish, cold hammer forged barrel, durability, reliability, and light weight that GLOCK is famous for.
GLOCK, Inc. was incorporated in 1985 and employ over 180 at their United States headquarters in Smyrna, Georgia.
