<h2 class="wp-block-heading">B&amp;T</h2>



<p>The USW is a Swiss designed, engineered and produced service weapon that combines the size and weight of a normal duty pistol but extends the range, accuracy and effectiveness to that of a 9mm carbine. It is ideal for police work but also as a military PDW. While the stock, when folded, does not affect the use of the USW as a pistol, it can be unfolded to be used as a carbine in less than 0.5 seconds.</p>

<p>he M312 is a lightweight, compact weaponlight featuring 300 lumens of blinding light. The M312 attaches to any rail via its low-profile RM45, which positions the light in the off-set position, decreasing overall profile and limiting snag factor. The light is activated via a DS07, which includes a click pushbutton and ST07 remote-switch with seven-inch cable. Constructed of aerospace aluminum, hard anodized with a Mil-Spec finish, and O-ring sealed, the tough M312 provides a tactical advantage in low-light situations.</p>
