Control your weapon mounted devices with ease!

Get ready to level up your game with the latest must-have from PTS Syndicate. The fully licensed by UNITY Tactical AXON™ SL remote switch. This slick piece of kit is designed to enhance your weapon-mounted accessories especially laser devices like never before, bringing you closer to the professional realm of real-world operatives but this one is optimized for airsoft/training needs.

Let’s dive into why the PTS AXON™ SL is the next addition you need in your setup.

Precision at Your Fingertips

Let me tell you, the AXON™ SL is not just any remote switch; UNITY Tactical changed the way of operation from weapon mounted accessories with the introduction of the AXON Series in general. From the first moment you grip the AXON™ SL, you’ll notice its impeccable design – it’s compact yet incredibly powerful. Made for rapid and ergonomic activation, it allows you to seamlessly control your weapon light or laser even under the most intense conditions.

Its 45-degree angled button ensures you hit the mark with perfect precision, whether operating behind cover or moving through dense terrain. The AXON Series sets itself apart from most common switches on the market at least in my personal opinion.

Built to Withstand the Battle

Crafted from reinforced polymer, this switch is tough made to last. You’re getting a tool that can withstand the rough and tumble of airsoft skirmishes or harsh environments. Its mechanical switch is designed for versatile firing modes – momentary or constant-on – ensuring you’re always ready for what comes next so you get full control over your light and laser, boosting confidence and performance on the field.

Designed for Maximum Flexibility

As someone who’s a bit of a DIY enthusiast with my gear, I appreciated how simple and easy the installation was. The AXON™ SL mounts seamlessly to either the M1913 Rail or M-LOK® systems (don’t forget the M-LOK® mounting kit from UNITY if that’s your setup). Plus, with its solder-free length customizable wire, you have the power to tailor your setup precisely to your needs.

Wanna know how to cut the cables? Here’s a “HOW TO” video from PTS showing you how it’s done straightforward, eliminating failure.

But what really steals the show in this package compared to its real-deal counterpart is the modular plug design. This feature is a dream come true invented from PTS for the AXON Series, allowing you to switch between different plug types with ease. Whether it’s the Surefire-style or Crane-style plugs, you’ve got the flexibility to adapt without limits, making the AXON-SL a truly versatile component of your gear. No need to buy a ton of different switches anymore…

And if I may draw a geeky parallel here: the way the AXON™ SL operates could make even Obi-Wan Kenobi a little envious. I mean, with this kind of light control at your fingertips, handling your weapon’s laser accessories feels just as smooth as wielding a lightsaber during the Clone Wars! Imagine slicing through the competition with the effortless finesse of a Jedi—a sleek weapon laser that you can engage in a moment’s notice? Now that’s the stuff of legend!
