Vahan Kelerchian, owner of AutoWeapons in Warminster, Pa., provides automatic and suppressed firearms to military and L.E. customers, and he strongly recommends products from AWC Systems Technology. “I’ve been selling and using AWC suppressors and weapon systems since 1999 and I couldn’t be more pleased,” Kelerchian said. “My customers, governmental and private, are very demanding, and with AWC suppressors, the customer satisfaction rate has been 100 percent. Quality, effectiveness and precision fit are excellent. And rugged? An AWC suppressor is a lifetime unit.” Kelerchian praised AWC’s rifle and subgun suppressors, which are used by all the military’s special warfare units. “Their Amphibia, an integrally suppressed Ruger Mark III .22 pistol specially prepared for marine and marshland environments, is a best seller; nothing compares,” Kelerchian said.

Developed specifically for counter-terrorist operations, the ammo has proven to be a strong seller with his home-defense and concealed-carry customers. “We do a lot of L.E. business and sales of Extreme Shock, especially their Air Freedom handgun rounds, have been great and growing steadily,” Garcia said. Air Freedom’s slugs are made of compressed tungsten-Nytrilium composite, designed for maximum impact and wound channels, while minimizing over-penetration and ricochet. “Relatively expensive, specialized rounds like these won’t sell themselves,” Garcia advised. “But all you have to do is explain their performance characteristics — including their safety factors — to concerned customers, and they sell very well.” Visit www.extremeshockusa.com.

Aimpoint’s National Sales Manager Mark Cockman demonstrated the new Concealed Engagement Unit (CEU), an optical device, which allows operators to shoot around corners and over barriers with minimal exposure. The CEU mounts behind the main optic and is compatible with all Aimpoint tactical red dot sights. Capable of pivoting 260 degrees, the CEU delivers an optical image rather than a digital display, at less than the cost of electronic video units.
