History

PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE: Super Trap, Inc. (STI) was renamed to Paragon Tactical, Inc. (PTI) in 2013. STI’s Super Trap® in 1997 took the lead in the range backstop industry and verifiably (refer to US Patent application date) developed and constructed the first slopped rubber berm trap on the market for Roy and Adeline Woodward – Owners of the “Magnolia Range” in Santee, CA. This new revolutionary approach eventually caught the attention of the competition which in time caused them to develop their own brand of rubber berm trap. In short: STI in 1997 raised the bar in shooting range backstop construction, to the benefit of the entire shooting range industry. PTI presently carries on this tradition with products such as ELIxIR® & Gel-Cor® and an improved 10 gauge galvanized steel infrastructure. ELIxIR verifiably immobilizes lead to below the Enviromental Protection Agency (EPA) threshold of five parts per million (5ppm) to verifiably less than 3ppm.Gel-Cor® verifiably gives PTI’s Super Trap’s chunk rubber a Class “A” fire rating throughout the entire depth of the rubber berm. ELIxIR® & Gel-Cor® not only create lower liability for all owners, but they also demonstrably benefit the health & safety of all parties associated with the range. PTI’s prospective Client’s “due diligence” shall discover PTI is has maintained the lead position in the industry when considering: the health and safety of their range staff and range participants. PTI’s construction acumen; the superior quality of PTI’s construction materials; cost vs. price, value added components; and the general overall practicality and functionality of PTI’s Super Trap® and supporting range products combine to provide a “state of the art” shooting range. The Super Trap® range backstop system allows for “traditional training” and has allowed for “tactical training” wherein shooters can safely advance to the target without fear of injury and engage the target much like “real” life threatening “combat situations.” This capability has resulted in enhanced training for police departments and military personnel. PTI’s backstops will, and possibly may have already, saved lives through improved tactical training. I am confident that you will discover, as have a rapidly growing list of clients, that the safest, healthiest and most practical tactical firing range backstop solution is a Super Trap® system.
