"The hardest part is getting the officer to wear the vest all day so that he has 24/7 protection," said Ari L. Markow, president of the company Bulletproof vests on market Tuesday, March 08, 2005 By WILLIAM FREEBAIRN wfreebairn@repub.com A licensee will soon start selling a new line of Smith & Wesson-brand bulletproof vests to law enforcement. Pride Business Development Holdings, a California-based distribution company, is selling licensed Smith & Wesson bullet-resistant vests in several versions. The new Bodyguard line, which will be available in May or June, comes in "44 Magnum" and "357 Magnum" models offering differing protection from firearms. The products are being carried by Galls Inc., a Kentucky-based distributor of public safety equipment. The new bullet-resistant vests are described by Pride as more comfortable than traditional vests. "The hardest part is getting the officer to wear the vest all day so that he has 24/7 protection," said Ari L. Markow, president of the company. The new vests use hybrid materials to increase comfort, the company said. No information on prices was available yesterday. Smith & Wesson has been increasing its efforts to sign licensees in complementary areas, officials have said. The company is also evaluating a move into a broader range of security and safety products, it has said. Smith & Wesson does not make the licensed products, including vests. In the past, the company has licensed golf clubs, bicycles, knives and other products. Pride Business Development Holdings is a publicly traded company that develops and markets a variety of products. The company holds the Smith & Wesson license to sell body armor, vehicle armor and automated external defibrillators to treat heart problems. masslive.com
