WESTMINSTER, CO--(August 1, 2007) - Security With Advanced Technology (NASDAQ: SWAT), a leading provider of security products and services, announced today that its new non-lethal personal protection device, the Avurt(tm) IM-5(tm) launcher, is available for pre-sales on its new website, www.avurt.com.
The Avurt IM-5 launcher is a small, handheld self-defense device that launches up to five PAVA filled projectiles at attackers up to 40 feet away. The IM-5 launcher's PAVA filled projectiles are non-lethal, but will cause an attacker's nose, throat and eyes to burn, temporarily disabling them. The IM-5 launcher protects from greater distances than conventional pepper spray and stun guns, doesn't have the potential to be lethal the way firearms do, and unlike stun guns the Avurt IM-5 launcher uses technology that has never been associated with a death.
"We strongly believe that the IM-5 launcher offers consumers an unmatched option for non-lethal personal protection, and offers the most benefits and features over any other self-defense product currently on the market," said Scott Sutton, founder of Avurt International and president and CEO of Security With Advanced Technology. "I'm confident the IM-5 launcher will become the self-defense device of choice when compared to other competitive products such as Mace(tm) and Taser(tm)."
The IM-5 Launcher Kit is available for an introductory price of $299 and includes one IM-5 launcher (available in black, blue, red or pink), 10 practice rounds, a carrying case, a training DVD and an instruction manual. Pre-sale orders are expected to be fulfilled beginning around August 30, 2007. For more information about Avurt International or the IM-5 launcher please visit www.avurt.com or call 1-800-498-7965.
