LaserMax Gets Million Dollar Government Contract
The Department of Defense awarded a local company with a multi-million dollar contract.

LaserMax received the contract to development Thermal Laser markers for U.S. Special Operations Command. This defense program was established to facilitate the rapid insertion of innovative technologies into military systems. The sixteen month, $2 million contract is aimed at improving safety for troops operating in hostile environments.

Rep Tom Reed of the 29th District said, "Who is a shining example for our district of employing high tech advance manufacturing techniques for our war fighters in a way that not only means jobs for people here in the district, but also means that they're taking care of our war fighters when they're deployed into harm's way."

LaserMax has been a leading manufacturer of high quality laser sight systems for more than twenty years.
