CARLSBAD, Calif., Jan. 23 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- XENONICS HOLDINGS, INC. , a leader in high-intensity illumination and low-light viewing technologies, announced today that it has entered into a licensing and marketing agreement with the National Rifle Association of America (NRA) for Xenonics' new SuperVision(TM) night vision device.
"The NRA is legendary for the trust and support it enjoys among its more than four million loyal members. We are thrilled to use the NRA name and trademark in our SuperVision branding and marketing campaigns," said Cameron Hopkins, president of Xenonics' SuperVision division.
Alan Magerman, Chairman of Xenonics Holdings, added, "This spring we plan to launch a national advertising campaign in NRA member magazines offering a free NRA Life Membership valued at $1,000 with every purchase of a SuperVision device. We are excited by the potential of this program, which is only one example of the many opportunities created by our NRA license to build sales of SuperVision."
Joe Graham, director of NRA publications, said, "We are proud to support products that promote the legal and ethical hunting practices long endorsed by the NRA, and we expect SuperVision to become an indispensable tool for hunters and outdoorsmen for observing game, pre-season scouting and recovery of wounded animals."

SuperVision exceeds the performance of current military (Gen III) night vision systems while offering the unparalleled benefit of up to 8x zoom magnification.
