TrackingPoint Announces The NightHawk - First Night Vision Precision-Guided Firearm

PFLUGERVILLE, Texas, Feb. 11, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- TrackingPoint announced today the first Precision-Guided Firearm designed specifically for homestead defense.  The NightHawk .300 Blackout (BO) includes TrackingPoint's recently introduced Night Vision Kit (NVK).  The NVK alone retails for $2495 (see related release – TrackingPoint Introduces Night Vision For Precision-Guided Firearms).  Offered at the exclusive price of $6995 for the first 100 purchases (MSRP normally $15,490), NightHawk works with off-the-shelf ammunition and incorporates the same RapidLok^TM technology found in TrackingPoint's military Precision-Guided Firearms.

"NightHawk is TrackingPoint's first foray into home and property defense," said John McHale TrackingPoint's CEO.  "People want to prepare for this more dangerous world.  We think the NightHawk is a powerful personal security weapon for rotecting homes and property."

 Key Capabilities

• Allows owners to protect their home and property 24-hours a day
• Night vision capabilities (with IR illuminator attachment)
• Works with standard off-the-shelf ammunition
• The knock-down performance of the 300BO
• Can be financed for up to 48 months (payments as low as $160/month)

NightHawk incorporates an infrared sensitive CMOS sensor that detects light not visible to the human eye.  Depending on the strength of the IR illuminator, targets can be engaged and tracked out to 300 yards at night.  As a shooter pulls the trigger the target is automatically acquired and tracked. When trigger pull completes, the target is instantly eliminated.  Total Time-To-Kill (TTK) is approximately 2.5 seconds. RapidLok^TM Fire Control is image stabilized enabling you to make off-hand shots and shots on the run.

Pricing and Exclusive Offers

The NightHawk 300BO retails for $15,490 but the first 100 purchases will be sold at the exclusive offer price of $6,995.
