About Knights Armament

Sourced by ZipRecruiter

Over 30 years ago, the US Government required clip-on weapon sight solutions that would meet the expectations of military users in fielded conditions. C. Reed Knight, Jr. had already established Knight’s Armament Company (KAC) as a leader in research, development and rapid fielding of complex requirements for the special operations community. In the early 1990’s, the Army’s Test Lab NVESD and JSOC approached KAC requesting an interim solution while Army’s Integrated Night Operations Devices (INOD) systems were perfected. The INOD concept ultimately culminated in weapon sight technology.
