Appleton, WI ? Armament Systems and Procedures (ASP), a leading manufacturer of law enforcement products, is now shipping more than a half-dozen new additions to its line of high-performance tactical lighting solutions. The products were first unveiled to enthusiastic industry and media response at the SHOT Show, and are now in stock and making their way into ASP’s distribution channels. ASP Vice President of Marketing, Michael Hess, says that the company has been in major growth mode in the flashlight category over the past couple of years, and that will accelerate in 2018. “We have been gratified to have more and more law enforcement agencies adopting our flashlights,” says Hess, “and one of the benefits of that is being able to incorporate a tremendous amount of field testing and feedback into our new models.”
The new lights shipping now are:
Pro DF and Pro AA
ASP is investing heavily in advanced programmable technology, starting with two new models—the Pro DF and Pro AA. Each has a fixed maximum illumination level (610 and 305 lumens, respectively), and a user-programmable secondary setting of either 15, 60 or 150 lumens, or strobe. The DF version is Dual Fuel, running off either a rechargeable 18650 battery or CR123A primary cells. The Pro AA uses two AA primary cells. MSRP starting at $100.
In keeping with the “two is one, one is none” philosophy that ASP incorporates in its tactical training programs around the world, the company is expanding its Every Day Carry light category, favored by many law enforcement officers as backups to their primary duty lights. The new Guardian AA/DF and CR/DF lights each produce more than 400 lumens, in a palm-sized form factor. Both Guardians are Dual Fuel, using either the included rechargeable battery or single-use primary cell. MSRP starting at $75
The new Raven every day carry light draws immediate attention with its unique, 45-facet barrel, reminiscent of the angular surfaces of a stealth aircraft. Under its slim polymer shell is an aluminum chassis that houses advanced electronic and optical components, driving 140 lumens of LED light off just two AAA batteries (included). ASP’s “double tap” feature activates a secondary illumination level of 15 lumens. MSRP $48.
