XS Sights Introduces R3D Night Sights for Kimber K6s Revolver

XS Sights Introduces R3D Night Sights for Kimber K6s Revolver

Fort Worth, Texas (May 22, 2023) – XS Sights is pleased to introduce R3D Nights Sights for the Kimber K6s. Owners of this compact, stainless-steel revolver who have trouble seeing their factory sights or simply wish to upgrade for better front sight visibility, day or night, now have the option of this highly effective 3-dot tritium notch and post sight.

The R3D front sight is equipped with XS’s proprietary Glow Dot with tritium center for dual illumination. The Glow Dot absorbs ambient light and glows in low light while also absorbing light from the tritium which continually charges the dot. This makes the front sight glow even brighter than the tritium rear sights which drives focus toward the front sight and downrange threat, enabling faster and more accurate target acquisition.

The high-contrast colored front sight is available in Orange or Green. The 2-dot, blacked-out  tritium rear sight illuminates to facilitate proper sight alignment without outshining the front sight for accurate indexing.

“Being able to see your sights in any light is critical in self-defense situations, and our R3D Night Sights are designed for this,” said Addison Monroe, Marketing Manager, XS Sights. “The R3D, with its Glow Dot technology and wider notch, is a significant upgrade that gives gun owners confidence in their ability to make the shot day or night.”

R3D sights are CNC machined from solid steel bar stock by XS Sights’ in-house machine shop in Ft. Worth Texas and have a 12-year warranty on the tritium. Gunsmith installation of these sights is recommended for the Kimber K6s as the front sight will need to be drilled for the retention pin. These sights do not fit the Kimber K6xs.

The Maxim Defense DSX:D Suppressor is the benchmark in extreme-duty use silencers. The DSX has been recognized by Pew Science for its performance, earning top honors in firearm sound suppression.

FEATURES:

  • · Drops sound to well below hearing safe levels.
  • · Decreases flash, decreases recoil, increases accuracy.
  • · Fully and easily serviceable.
  • · The suppressor core has integrated carbon cutters for tube cleaning

  • · Secondary retention feature for the suppressor tube
  • · Material Composition: Grade-5 Titanium, 17-4 SS
  • · Weight: 21 oz

FUNCTIONS

  • Increase reliability and longevity with host firearms due to low gas blowback and low host weapon cyclic rate gain compared to other more traditional suppressor designs.
  • Drops sound well below hearing safe levels (specific reduction based on weapon configuration, ammunition, barrel length, and atmospheric conditions). For example, the average measurement per MILSTD-1474D of 134dB on a 10.3” AR-15 chambered in 5.56 measured at the shooter’s left ear.

SOF Week 2024 exhibit spaces

A letter from Stu Bradin regarding SOF Week 2024 exhibit space

May 18, 2023


Although we’re still closing out SOF Week 2023, we are already starting to plan for SOF Week 2024. Many people have asked to book exhibit space for 2024, but I want to explain why we are not able to start those sales immediately and share our way ahead.
As you know, this was GSOF’s first year executing SOF Week. Additionally, we did so on a truncated timeline, and due to that, a lot of the concepts we outlined in our proposal were not implemented to their full extent. We intend to improve and expand for 2024.
GSOF and USSOCOM will use the next 45 – 60 days to conduct a thorough review of this year’s event in order to assess what went well and what needs improvement. There are also three big changes in 2024: (1) the Tampa Convention Center will open 40,000 square feet of additional meeting space; (2) we have the ability to reserve more meeting space in the JW Marriott; and (3) the 2024 conference will be an “international” year in which USSOCOM invites partner nations to attend. We want to ensure that we take all of this into consideration before selling exhibit space or sponsorships for next year.
We anticipate having the final approvals for the format and layout of SOF Week 2024 by the end of July, and we think we will be able to open sales to GSOF Corporate Partners by the end of August. Sales to non-GSOF Corporate Partners will open in September, but we do not yet know the process by which exhibitors and sponsors will be selected. This is part of the review process underway right now. In keeping with the GSOF mission statement, GSOF is committed to ensuring exhibitors are representative of companies supporting USSOCOM’s Title X responsibility, “to develop, acquire, field, and sustain technology in support of USSOCOM mission objectives”.
The reality is that the SOF Week Campus is not large enough to accommodate every company that wishes to exhibit. GSOF will do its best to ensure the exhibition is robust, engaging, and impactful. Moreover, we aim to deliver high-quality content that meets the USSOCOM Commander’s objectives for the conference.
GSOF will hold virtual focus groups to gather feedback on SOF Week 2023 at the end of May. We’d love to hear from you.

Please stay tuned to SOFWeek.org for more information. In the meantime, save the date: May 6-9, 2024!

Sincerely,

The SOF Week exhibition is organized by

GMT™ Guarantee:

Grey Man Tactical™ warranties its products against defects in workmanship and materials. If you have a defective product, we will gladly replace it at no cost to you. This does not apply to third party products.

About GMT™:

In 2012, Paul Capdepon lived in an area where he preferred the contents of his personal gear to not be known. He carried a nondescript commuter-style backpack and wanted the ability to organize EDC-type gear. Not finding a suitable option, Paul decided to adapt the traditional MOLLE-style grid and designed the first Rigid MOLLE Panel™ to insert into any backpack with a 15″ laptop sleeve.

After receiving interest in the Rigid MOLLE Panel™ Paul had made for his own gear, he decided to launch a basic website in 2014 to begin selling them. Paul worked with local manufacturers from his home state of Louisiana as the demand for expanding the range of RMP™ sizes quickly increased. GMT™ has performed extensive testing and evaluations in the most adverse and demanding conditions. GMT™ then incorporated customer feedback to optimize performance in creating a dependable organizational platform.

The RMP Series™ has since been utilized by federal, state and local law enforcement agencies – specifically the DOS, DOJ, DHS, FBI, USMS, USBP, NYPD and LAPD to US Armed Forces, including the US Army, USAF, USN, USMC, USCG and USSOCOM – with implementation in missions assigned across Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria and surrounding areas of operation. As a result, the RMP Series™ has yielded over 1,000 Five Star Reviews in our efforts to make critical gear rapidly accessible.

It is our ongoing passion to serve the prepared citizens, outdoorsmen, Law Enforcement, First Responders and Armed Forces communities, and we look forward to continuing to create gear that enables you to perform at the highest standard.

SeaGuardian Used by USN in Support of Integrated Battle Problem

SEAGUARDIAN® USED BY USN IN SUPPORT OF INTEGRATED BATTLE PROBLEM

Series of ASW and MUM-T Exercises Showcase Advantages of UAS

SAN DIEGO – 18 May 2023 – In support of the U.S. Navy’s (USN) Integrated Battle Problem 2023 (IBP-23) exercise in May, General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc. (GA-ASI) conducted a series of Anti-Submarine Warfare (ASW) exercises cooperatively with the USN Helicopter Maritime Strike Squadrons (HSM) 38, 49, 71, and 75. GA-ASI flew a company-owned MQ-9B SeaGuardian® Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS) under a USN Flight Clearance. The HSM squadrons flew the MH-60R Seahawk helicopter flown out of Naval Air Station North Island off the coast of San Diego, Calif., on April 24-25, 2023.

The exercise was focused on Manned-Unmanned Teaming (MUM-T) to conduct Cooperative ASW in the Southern California Offshore ASW range. During the two-day event, MH-60s dropped sonobuoys to detect a mobile training target. Using the combined SeaGuardian and MH-60R teaming concept, correlation and location of the target was expeditiously achieved and tactical reports – known as TACREPs – were then transmitted to Commander, Task Force (CTF) 34 Theater ASW Center at Naval Station Pearl Harbor via the MQ-9B crew. The CTF then directed a coordinated constructive “kill” of the simulated submarine with notional torpedoes dropped from the MH-60s. The ASW payload on the SeaGuardian uses the latest version of General Dynamics Mission Systems’ Sonobuoy Processor.

“These advanced tactics, techniques, and procedures utilizing MUM-T further reinforce the advantages to unmanned aircraft in combat with less risk to force,” said GA-ASI Vice President of DoD Strategic Development Patrick Shortsleeve.

The IBP-23 exercise is the third time GA-ASI’s MQ-9B SeaGuardian has supported this annual event. These exercises generate warfighting advantages for the Fleet by providing the operational environment to work through tactics, techniques, procedures, and command and control to refine and enhance warfighting. The Fleet IBP series is led by Commander, U.S. Pacific Fleet and executed by Commander, U.S. 3rd Fleet and will continue throughout May 2023.

About GA-ASI

What do professionals in the firearms industry want? HeadHunters NW Delivers Survey Results

HeadHunters NW Firearms Industry Employee Satisfaction Survey

WHAT DO PROFESSIONALS IN THE FIREARMS INDUSTRY WANT?

HeadHunters NW Delivers

Shooting Industry Employee Satisfaction Survey Results

May 18, 2023 – Edgemont, SD – HeadHunters NW, the premier executive recruiting firm focused exclusively and deliberately on talent acquisition for the shooting, hunting, and outdoor industry, announces the results of its recent Shooting Industry Employee Satisfaction Survey. The survey provides data for corporate executives, team leaders, and human resource managers as companies in the firearms industry struggle to determine which incentives spark collaboration, motivation, culture, and productivity in their workforces.

“The purpose of the HeadHunters NW Shooting Industry Employee Satisfaction Survey is to help employers and managers in our industry better understand the needs and expectations of their workforce,” according to HeadHunters NW President Shaylene Keiner. “And boy, did we learn some compelling things along the way,” she said.

“One surprise was the number of people preferring remote work versus an office setting,” Keiner stated. Only 14 percent of the respondents favored in-person work, while the remainder split between fully remote and a hybrid combination of in-person and remote work. “This trend is indicative of many of the professionals we recruit for top positions in the industry. While remote work is not always practical for employers, the survey reflects this model appears to be the new normal,” she commented.

“Based on results from questions about corporate culture and satisfaction, it is crucial for our industry leaders to recognize the pitfalls of working remotely, including the potential for fewer collaborative workplace relationships, decreased opportunities for mentorship, and possible sluggish career advancement. Perhaps our leaders must address this trend by defining what drives the desire for staffers who prefer to avoid the office,” Keiner suggested.

HeadHunters NW Satisfaction Survey

“Another discovery from the survey is that professionals are ready to grow through skill building and training,” she said. “Fifty-one percent of survey participants expressed eagerness to improve skills via professional development education, while thirty-one percent hunger for firsthand training from leadership,” said Keiner. “Those numbers reflect a tangible opportunity to engage workers and guide company culture through education and mentoring.”

To see the full results and conclusions of the HeadHunters NW Shooting Industry Employee Satisfaction Survey, please visit headhuntersnw.com/employee-survey-results.

Would it help to learn more about how your company compares to other shooting, hunting, and outdoor industry companies? Please contact us today for a confidential discussion about benefits, compensation, remote vs. hybrid vs. in-person work environments, paid time off, and other vital details employees ask about by phone at 605-600-1709 or email info@headhuntersnw.com.

Henry Donates $200,000 to Pediatric Cancer Centers

Henry Repeating Arms

Henry Repeating Arms Donates $200,000 to Pediatric Cancer Centers

Henry Donates $200,000 to Pediatric Cancer Centers


RICE LAKE, Wis., May 18, 2023 – Henry Repeating Arms, one of the country’s leading firearms manufacturers, is proud to announce donations totaling $200,000 to Arkansas Children’s Hospital and the Fred & Pamela Buffett Cancer Center at Nebraska Medicine. The funds will go directly toward supporting the hospitals’ efforts in treating and caring for pediatric cancer patients, ensuring that children and their families have access to the world-class care these healthcare providers are known for.

“If I could snap my fingers and resolve one thing in this world, without a doubt, it would be childhood cancer. It’s impossible to imagine what these kids and their parents endure throughout treatment and beyond,” said Anthony Imperato, Founder and CEO of Henry Repeating Arms. “Seeing the smile of positivity and confidence on the face of a kid fighting the battle of their life is all the inspiration and motivation I need to try and help support these children and their families in any way I can. Guns for Great Causes has always been about the kids, the future of America, and I am proud to make these donations in their name.”

Arkansas Children’s is the only healthcare system in the state solely dedicated to caring for children and is nationally ranked by U.S. News & World Report in seven pediatric specialties, including cancer.

“I would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to Henry Repeating Arms for their incredibly generous donation benefiting our Hematology-Oncology Unit,” said Taylor Speegle, Executive Director of Philanthropy for Arkansas Children’s Foundation. “This gift will help our commitment to making the children of Arkansas better today and healthier tomorrow. Thank you for your commitment to our mission and for your unwavering support of our efforts to improve the health and well-being of children.”

The Nebraska Medicine Fred & Pamela Buffett Cancer Center opened in 2017 and harnesses the most advanced biomedical and technological tools available to further understand cancer causes and create more personalized care for each patient with precise therapies to improve outcomes.

“We are grateful for Anthony’s incredible generosity in partnering with Nebraska Medicine to benefit so many families facing the challenges of a child with cancer,” said Suzanne Nuss, Ph.D., Chief Nursing Officer, Nebraska Medicine. “Today and into the future, the impact of this gift will help alleviate some of the financial pressures for so many who turn to Nebraska Medicine for the life-saving care needed for their little one.”

Since June 2022, Henry Repeating Arms has donated over $1 million through its charitable branch called Guns for Great Causes to celebrate the company’s 25th anniversary. With a primary focus on pediatric cancer, both children’s cancer hospitals and providing financial relief to individual families of sick children, Guns for Great Causes also benefits military veterans, law enforcement, and first responder organizations, particularly those assisting the wounded, injured, and the families of those who lost their lives in the line of duty. Other categories include wildlife conservation, preserving and promoting America’s shooting sports traditions, firearm safety education, and 2nd Amendment advocacy.

Keeping the Fangs Away

Avoid Snake Bites

Blocker Outdoors offers snake protection for hunters, birders, hikers, herpers, and more.

MUSKEGON, MI (May 17, 2023) – The U.S. Centers for Disease control estimates that 7,000 to 8,000 people are bitten by venomous snakes annually. (Note: snakes can be venomous, not poisonous – there’s a difference.) Few deaths are attributed to the venomous bites, however, but the aftermath can be miserable, even life changing.

Rattlesnake venom is largely composed of hemotoxins. So, beyond the initial unfathomably painful bite, and after the instant bleeding and swelling, you can experience nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and labored breathing. Left untreated, the strike can lead to organ failure, and in some instances, death.

SNAKE CHAPS

Water and marsh-oriented cottonmouth snakes – colloquially referred to as water moccasins – also carry hemotoxic venom. And past the bodily effects listed for rattlesnake bites, both cottonmouth and rattlesnake bites can cause necrosis, which breaks down blood cells and can lead to temporary or permanent tissue and muscle damage.

The widely distributed copperhead snake also carries hemotoxins, but bites are generally not considered deadly. Yet, a strike is wickedly painful, and you can expect swelling, throbbing, and possible nausea.

SNAKE GAITERS

The takeaway is avoid getting bitten, but not run scared and avoid outdoor activities. To that, Blocker Outdoors offers an array of snake protection gear. And suggested use goes well beyond hunting. Birders, hikers, bank anglers, and general outdoor enthusiasts active in areas with known snake populations should all consider snake bite protection.

ABOUT NEXUS OUTDOORS

Nexus Outdoors, headquartered in Muskegon, MI, USA, is a leading worldwide designer, marketer and distributor of performance, hunting and casual odor-controlling apparel, footwear and equipment under the ScentLok Technologies®, OZ®, Blocker Outdoors®, Whitewater, Hard Core® Waterfowl Hunting Apparel and Tree Spider® brands.

NSSF, USFWS, and Taurus Release Latest Video in the “Partner with a Payer” Film Series

May 17, 2023

NSSF, USFWS, and Taurus Release Latest Video in the “Partner with a Payer” Film Series

Highlighting Manufacturers and Their Support of the Federal Aid in Wildlife Restoration Act


WASHINGTON, D.C. — NSSF®, The Firearm Industry Trade Association, highlights a partnership with Taurus Holdings, Inc., in support of the “Partner with a Payer®” initiative by the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service (USFWS). In the video, titled “Building Our Partnerships,” the world-class manufacturing facilities at Taurus are showcased, which have been vital to assisting the state of Georgia and the Department of Natural Resources (DNR) in their economic development of creating and maintaining resources for the public to utilize for outdoor activities.

Companies including firearm and ammunition manufacturers and importers contribute to the USFWS initiative by paying excise taxes into the Federal Aid in Wildlife Restoration Act (known as the Pittman-Robertson Act). More than $16.1 billion (over $25 billion when adjusted for inflation) have been contributed and distributed to individual states to allocate funds toward wildlife conservation, hunter-education programs and target shooting programs.

“This is a win-win situation for everyone involved, but especially outdoorsmen and women who are passionate about these activities and creating additional opportunities that future generations can utilize too,” said Tom Decker, Brand Manager, USFWS. “It enables manufacturers to also be active participants in managing wildlife areas and improving resources and facilities such as target shooting ranges. In return, the available facilities encourage the local community and industry partners alike to increase their regular participation and recruit others to use them as well.”

Employees from Taurus, Georgia DNR, NSSF and USFWS came together to nourish relationships and gain insight on each partner’s industry challenges. Through these shared experiences, the partners find ways to work together, support one another to overcome challenges, and understand each other’s opportunities for the betterment of wildlife resource management and public hunting opportunities. Understanding how each partner contributes to the American system of conservation funding is essential to the overall success of the initiative.

Taurus Holdings, Inc., whose 205,000-square-foot manufacturing facility is located in Bainbridge, Georgia, produces high-quality firearms with the support of employees who are passionate about the industry. A portion of each of its sales contributes to the excise tax, thus making public target shooting facilities and natural habitat more accessible to outdoorsmen and -women.

“Having more public resources, like this shooting range, made available around the country is very important to our business,” said Bret Vorhees, President and CEO of Taurus Holdings, Inc. “It makes these activities more accessible for current owners and new shooters to hone their skills, learn and practice proper firearm safety, and ultimately help expand the shooting sports and hunting alike. Without our contribution of excise taxes and the state fish and wildlife agencies’ dedication to managing these funding opportunities, initiatives like these wouldn’t be possible.”

These latest videos and others in the series were produced by Shine United LLC / Kingdom Filmworks for NSSF through a Multistate Conservation Grant administered by the Association of Fish and Wildlife Agencies and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.



About NSSF

NSSF is the trade association for the firearm industry. Its mission is to promote, protect and preserve hunting and the shooting sports. Formed in 1961, NSSF has a membership of thousands of manufacturers, distributors, firearm retailers, shooting ranges, sportsmen’s organizations and publishers nationwide.

With input from guides and avid anglers around the country, the men’s A1A Pro Guide pants are packed with serious features for the most challenging days on the water.

“Pants that are tough enough to handle the abuse I put them through and are light enough for wear in the heat didn’t exist until now. The men’s A1A Pro Guide pants design is the best I have ever seen. They were built with a true fisherman in mind,” said Captain Nate, Islamorada, FL.

The men’s A1A Pro Guide pants are designed to be durable without giving up comfort and performance that anglers demand, whether poling a skiff or fighting the tarpon of a lifetime. The pants are made for all-day comfort on the water, constructed of 94% nylon for durability and 6% spandex for stretch and comfort. “The overall durability of these pants is insane. The patch on the side is perfect for poling the skiff when chasing tailing Reds,” said Captain Ervin, Charleston, SC. The abrasion-resistant fabric patch is strategically placed on the side of the pants to withstand the wear and tear of long days manning the push pole.

Functional design elements are evident in six feature-rich pocket designs. The pants have cargo and zippered side pockets with drainage grommets allowing anglers to store their tools and keep them dry. Two zippered rear pockets allow for extra security, and two hand pockets for any additional accessories anglers need to carry. The adjustable hem will eliminate your pants from dragging on the boat or at the dock.

The fabric features a durable water-repellent finish, keeping anglers cool and dry. These pants also feature an ever-adjusting waistband for those who enjoy a long lunch break waiting on the tide to turn. Rounding out the men’s A1A Pro Guide Pant is 50+ UPF for sun protection, a premium zipper fly front, and a gusseted crotch for mobility. Huk listened to their pros, and these A1A Pro Guide pants are the result.

Men’s A1A Pro Guide Pants Features:

  • · 94% Nylon, 6% Spandex
  • · Abrasion-resistant fabric side hits to cut wear and tear while poling the flats
  • · Six pocket design (cargo & zippered side pockets with drainage grommets, two zippered back pockets, two hand pockets)
  • · Adjustable waistband and hem
  • · Zippered fly front
  • · Crotch gusset
  • · 50+ UPF
  • · Sizes: SM-3XL

NSSF Recognizes the Four Sheriffs in Congress During National Police Week 2023

May 17, 2023

NSSF Recognizes the Four Sheriffs in Congress During National Police Week 2023

Sheriffs in Congress

U.S. Representatives pictured left to right: U.S. Reps. John Rutherford (R-Fla.), Mike Ezell (R-Miss.), Troy Nehls (R-Texas) and Clay Higgins (R-La.)

WASHINGTON, D.C. — NSSF®, The Firearm Industry Trade Association, recognized four former sheriffs serving in Congress as Real Solutions.® Champions during National Police Week 2023. U.S. Reps. John Rutherford (R-Fla.), Mike Ezell (R-Miss.), Troy Nehls (R-Texas) and Clay Higgins (R-La.) were presented awards for their contributions to keeping communities safe in their law enforcement and Congressional careers. These four Congressmen embody the ethos of NSSF’s Real Solutions. Safer Communities.® campaign to ensure firearms remain beyond the reach of those who cannot be trusted to possess them while respecting and preserving Second Amendment rights.

“NSSF is proud to recognize these four Members of Congress who have dedicated their lives to serving and protecting their communities – first while wearing a badge to enforce laws in their counties and presently as representatives of their districts in Congress,” said Lawrence G. Keane, NSSF Senior Vice President and General Counsel. “NSSF’s Real Solutions campaign focuses on firearm industry-led efforts to improve community safety by ensuring firearms remain beyond the reach of prohibited individuals and those suffering through suicidal ideations or a mental health crisis. These programs save lives, reduce crime and make our communities safer while respecting the rights of law-abiding citizens to keep and bear arms. These Congressmen live those values of service to protect and preserve life in our communities while guaranteeing constitutional rights.”

NSSF’s Real Solutions. Safer Communities. campaign creates safer communities through proven partnerships with law enforcement, elected officials and community leaders. The programs include:

· Project ChildSafe® – a partner program with law enforcement in all 50 states and five U.S. territories that has distributed over 40 million free firearm safety kits, including locking devices to ensure firearms are secured when not in use.

· Operation Secure Store® – a partner program with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) to improve security at firearm retailers to deter firearm burglaries and robberies.

· Don’t Lie for the Other GuyTM – an ATF-partner program to warn the public against the crime of “straw purchasing” a firearm for someone who can’t legally do so on their own.

· FixNICS® – the firearm industry-led effort to ensure all disqualifying background information is submitted to the FBI’s National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS).

· Suicide Prevention – NSSF’s partnership with the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (AFSP) to encourage gun owners to have a “brave conversation” and intervene before a moment of crisis to prevent suicide by firearm.

Congressman Rutherford introduced the NSSF-supported bipartisan Federal Firearms Licensee (FFL) Protection Act, H.R. 2620, which would strengthen and enhance criminal penalties for thefts of firearms from federally licensed firearm retailers. This legislation sends a strong message to those violent criminals engaging in these illicit activities and helps provide for safer communities, assists law enforcement and protects the livelihoods of firearm retailers.



About NSSF

NSSF is the trade association for the firearm industry. Its mission is to promote, protect and preserve hunting and the shooting sports. Formed in 1961, NSSF has a membership of thousands of manufacturers, distributors, firearm retailers, shooting ranges, sportsmen’s organizations and publishers nationwide.

Hobie® Eyewear Floating Collection Delivers Value & Spares Loss

Hobie® Eyewear Floating Collection Delivers Value & Spares Loss

Oceanside, CA (May 17, 2023) – Little is more disheartening than inadvertently dropping a favored pair of sunglasses into a river or lake and helplessly watching style and sun protection sink out of sight. That’s why Hobie® Eyewear created an entire Floating Collection of fishing and outdoor lifestyle sunglasses.

“I tell everyone that if you haven’t lost a pair of sunglasses to the drink, then you haven’t spent enough time on the water. With our Floating Collection, you have peace of mind that one of your most crucial pieces of equipment will rise to the surface and stay with you on your next adventure,” said Dylan Coates, Marketing Manager for Hobie® Eyewear.

The sunglasses’ floatability stems from our proprietary blend of frame and lens materials. It is important to note that quality nor durability is not sacrificed for affordability and being lightweight. Hobie® Eyewear’s engineering, material choices, and understanding of eyewear allow for the creation of premium sunglasses that are light enough to float and can be sold at a surprising cost, with prices starting at $89.99.

“Like most fishermen or boaters, I’ve left many glasses at the bottom of the lake. Not only does it hurt your wallet, but it’s not great for the environment either, said Stephen Vaughan, Sr. Director of Product Development.

The Floating Collection prevents lost sunglasses from littering lakes and rivers, aligning with Hobie® Eyewear’s ongoing sustainability efforts. 

“It can also put a real damper on your fishing day if you don’t have a spare pair. With our Floating Collection, these concerns are a thing of the past. That means less time squinting and more time fishing,” Vaughan said. “Furthermore, our floating glasses don’t sacrifice styling or functionality with bulky-looking frames or obnoxiously large air chambers like other brands. They look great on your face and just as beautiful when they’re sitting on the surface of the water instead of the bottom.”

The Hobie® Eyewear Floating Collection includes five frame designs – Monarch Float, Mojo Float, Bluefin Float, Coastal Float, and Mariposa Float – each with multiple lens color options.

Monarch Float sunglasses can be worn with or without removable side shields to block extra light or open peripheral views, depending on the situation. The Mojo Float models are extra-large, with a wrap-around design to block peripheral light. Bluefin Float, also a wrap-around style, is Hobie® Eyewear’s first XXL frame, creating an ideal fit for more prominent faces and maximizing protection. Coastal Float sunglasses offer style to match an outdoor lifestyle. Mariposa Float is Hobie® Eyewear’s first women’s floating frame. Mariposa Float models are large, designed to block peripheral light, and feature premium polarized nylon lenses.

These models are designed with sportsmen and women in mind and offer an outstanding choice for all outdoor adventures. Hobie® Eyewear Floating Collection sunglasses, like all Hobie® sunglasses, are backed by a consumer-friendly lifetime warranty.

Since 1982, Hobie® Eyewear has made being on the water easier and more enjoyable – pioneering a better, clearer, and more precise kind of vision. Merging expertly crafted designs with premium polarization, durability and innovative technologies has been at its core, following in the footsteps of visionary creator Hobie Alter. Hobie’s growing product catalog includes the ultra-light Floating Collection, HydroClean™ repellent lens coatings and Quick-Swap Interchange lenses to fit every outdoor enthusiast’s needs.

Fisher Pen Company® Introduces Axiom Space® Branded Pens Ahead of the AX-2 Launch

Fisher Pen Company® Introduces Axiom Space® Branded Pens Ahead of the AX-2 Launch

Boulder City, NV (May 16, 2023) – Fisher Pen Company® products have always been known for supreme reliability and thoughtfully constructed designs. As the company is always looking for more ways to take the excellence of its pens to the next level, the brand also looks to partner with space exploration innovators. This is just what Fisher did by recently partnering with Axiom Space® to become the pen boarding the crewed AX-2 flight to the first international commercial space station. To commemorate this groundbreaking collaboration, Fisher introduces three new pens extending classic lines with Axiom branded logos ahead of takeoff.

Fisher Space Pen began collaborating with NIC Industries in 2022. In this ambitious project, NIC’s revolutionary Cerakote® Elite Series technology met Fisher’s classic M4 and Bullet Space Pen. With the success of the initial models in Matte Black, Tungsten, OD Green, Flat Dark Earth, and Black Cherry, Fisher presents its products in an exciting new Cerakote color this year. 

Cerakote is an innovative coating method that creates a thin layer of ceramic and polymer on the surface to protect the material from corrosion and enhance its functionality. Across industries, Cerakote technology has proven to be superior to other coating methods for its corrosion resistance and temperature stability. Moreover, Cerakote comes in hundreds of beautiful colors that can make any surface more visually pleasing. With Cerakote, an unusual combination of exceptional performance and extraordinary visuals is achieved.

The Elite Series rivals Teflon® with unmatched abrasion, corrosion, and chemical resistance while giving this Bullet Space Pen a premium look and feel in an ultra-thin coating layer. Sacrificing durability and strength for aesthetics and feel is a non-issue within Fisher’s revolutionary new series of pens. The Elite Navy Cerakote Bullet Space Pen comes available in a classic design, and additionally with an attached matte black clip. Rest assured that your Elite Navy Cerakote Bullet Space Pen will last a lifetime and will look and feel great in your hand throughout.

Due to its convenient and seamless activation and versatility, the Cap-O-Matic pen has been the most popular among professionals working in a physically-involved, ever-moving, and fast-paced environment, such as first responders, adventurers, and law enforcement. Now offered in Elite Navy Cerakote, the rugged dependability of this timeless pen delivers longevity without sacrificing a great aesthetic. The Axiom branded logo is an added bonus for space enthusiasts, commemorating this new partnership between both brands ahead of many innovations to come.

Outside of the new Navy Elite Cerakote lineup, Fisher also introduces an updated version of the AG7 Astronaut Space Pen. For this project, Fisher has taken the time-tested classic and plated it in sleek black titanium nitride, increasing its resistance to scratching and giving it an intriguing, stealthy appearance while donning the Axiom Space logo. This is the exact pen being used by Axiom Space astronauts while on all their future missions. This new generation of the iconic AG7 Space Pen paves a path forward for everyday-carry and space travel enthusiasts.

With their compact sizes and timeless designs, these space pens are still beloved by everyday-carry enthusiasts. All write in extreme temperatures ranging from -30 to 250 degrees Fahrenheit, through water and grease, from any angle, and in zero gravity.

The tools you possess should be held to an elite standard. The NEW Elite Navy Cerakote Bullet Space Pen, Elite Navy Cerakote Cap-O-Matic Space Pen, and Black Titanium Nitride AG7 guarantee that you can confidently go anywhere, write everywhere, while impressing everyone.
