C&H Precision Family of Companies (C&H), parent company of C&H Precision, has acquired Paragon, a highly regarded weapon light cleaning solution company based in Florida. In 2023, the firm acquired a majority stake in Paragon from its founding members, initiating a strategic partnership designed to enhance the capabilities and market presence of both companies. As of June 2024, C&H has completed the acquisition and assumes full ownership of Paragon.

“This acquisition marks a significant milestone in our ongoing growth and expansion within the firearms sector,” said Buck Holly, founder & CEO of C&H. “We are eager to integrate Paragon’s innovative products and expertise into our operations, which will undoubtedly strengthen our market position and enhance our ability to serve our customers.”

Paragon harnessed the owners’ U.S. Marine Corps and law enforcement years of experience to create a simple solution that allows a light's lens to be cleaned effectively without complete removal of the unit. After countless hours of research, the company arrived at a formula that worked, but it took another eight months of experiment to get ingredients in the ratio. The final solution quickly proved to be a popular choice, Paragon WLC, which is now carried by a variety of retailers.

C&H broke ground on its new home in Bryan County, Ga., in March of 2024. When finished, the facility in Richmond Hill will span 50,000 sq.-ft., create up to 60 jobs and become a place for the entire community to gather. All of Paragon operations will be based out of C&H headquarters upon completion of the complex.

C&H is a family-owned and operated small business the serves the shooting community with a variety of products, as well as precision machining. The company offers pistol optics, optics-mounting solutions, custom slide-milling services and now a cutting-edge solution to keep light lenses clean.
