Background
The defense contracting industry has sales to the United States government in the multibillions of dollars. Many of the contractors produce and sell products to governments and consumers in many countries as well. L-3 Communications EOTech , Inc. is a large manufacturer of electro-optics products and systems for law enforcement, homeland security and for recreational users. The company produces gun sights, magnifiers, weapon lights, military sights, night vision and thermal products, as well as training devices. Additionally, L-3 supplies guidance and navigation products and systems, data links, propulsion systems, avionics, electro optics, satellite communications, electrical power equipment, encryption products, signal intelligence products, and a host of other products. The company has contracts with the FBI, a number of police departments, and branches of the U.S. military.
Police Department Recall Announced
Denver Police have reportedly ordered all officers to immediately stop using EOTech holographic weapons sights. The order prohibits any further use on rifles carried for patrol and duty purposes. The department’s order also calls for all personal weapons to be prohibited from being used with EOTech sights. The United States Department of Justice recently reached a settlement in a fraud case brought against L-3 for over $25 million for defective holographic weapon sights sold through government contracts. The harms claimed in the government’s lawsuit centered on failures of the gun sights in cold and humid conditions and L-3 EOTech knowingly producing and marketing defective sights.
If you or anyone you know has experienced gun sight failures in cold and/or humid conditions when using EOTech sights, you may be part of class action. For more information on how class action lawsuits help average people, click here.
