Trijicon has announced that it has entered into an agreement to acquire AmeriGlo, a leading supplier of U.S. made night sights. The acquisition is expected to be complete within 30 to 60 days.

“The AmeriGlo brand is a natural fit for us,” said Trijicon President Stephen Bindon. “This purchase will further enhance Trijicon’s ever-expanding product and brand portfolio while increasing our manufacturing capacity to better serve end-users across the spectrum.”

AmeriGlo will continue to function as an independent brand and product portfolio.  There are no immediate plans to change how the team at AmeriGlo operates the business.  

“The team at AmeriGlo looks forward to this new relationship with Trijicon, Inc. AmeriGlo customers will see no interruption to the exceptional quality and service they have grown accustomed to over the years. Our dedicated staff in Georgia will remain in place, and we’ll continue making sights for our valued clients,” said Rick Callihan, who founded AmeriGlo in 2001 and will remain with the company.

AmeriGlo sights have been designed, machined and assembled in the U.S for more than 15 years.
