ITEM 4.       CHANGES IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT

On May 29, 2002, DHB Industries, Inc. (the "Company") dismissed its independent accountant, Paritz and Company, P.A. ("Paritz"), effective immediately. This decision was approved by the Audit Committee of the Company's Board of Directors. On May 29, 2002, the Company engaged Grant Thornton LLP ("Grant Thornton") as its new independent accountant and auditor. This decision was approved by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company.

The reports of Paritz on the Company's consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2001 and 2000 and for the years then ended did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.

During the Company's fiscal years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000 and subsequent interim periods to May 29, 2002, there were no disagreements between the Company and Paritz on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Paritz, would have caused them to make reference in connection with their opinion to the subject matter of the disagreement.

The Company has requested Paritz to furnish it with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the above statements made by the Company in this Form 8-K. A copy of such letter, dated May 29, 2002, is filed as an Exhibit to this Form 8-K.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We were previously principal accountants for DHB Industries, Inc. and, under the date of March 5, 2002, we reported on the consolidated financial statements of DHB Industries, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2001 and 2000 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity (deficit) and other comprehensive income and cash flows for each of the three-years in the period ended December 31, 2001.

We have read DHB Industries, Inc.'s statements included under Item 4 of its Form 8-K dated June 3, 2002, and we agree with such statements.
