About Al’s Goldfish Lure Company
The company was launched in 1952 with a single pioneering spoon lure, known as Stuart’s Goldfish, named after founder Al Stuart. The company’s flagship lure was renamed Al’s Goldfish in 1954, and by 1973 the popularity of the Goldfish lure soared to nearly one million lures sold in a year. Along the way, other popular lures, such as the Forty-Niner and Helgy, and hook bonnet lure accessories were added to the company’s list of American-made products. In 2015 the line was expanded to include the Saltwater Goldfish series. In 2022, present owners Jeff and Mandy DeBuigne are celebrating the 70 year anniversary of the Goldfish lure.

NSSF Challenges California’s Law Encouraging Frivolous Firearm Industry Lawsuits

May 23, 2023

NSSF Challenges California’s Law Encouraging Frivolous Firearm Industry Lawsuits


WASHINGTON, D.C. — NSSF®, The Firearm Industry Trade Association, filed a challenge to California’s unconstitutional firearm industry liability law, AB 1594, that was passed last year and signed into law by Gov. Gavin Newsom. The law encourages civil suits against the firearm industry for the damages caused by the criminal actions of remote third parties. This law is an affront to the U.S. Constitution and abuses the judicial system in an attempt to circumvent the will of the U.S. Congress when it passed the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act (PLCAA). The law goes into effect July 23.

NSSF filed NSSF v. Bonta in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of California. NSSF will seek a preliminary injunction to halt enforcement of the unconstitutional law as the challenge progresses through the courts.

“California’s General Assembly and Governor Newsom made a spectacle of defying the U.S. Supreme Court’s Bruen decision when this bill was passed and enacted,” said Lawrence G. Keane, NSSF Senior Vice President and General Counsel. “This law is openly hostile to the firearm industry and also defiant to Congress, the U.S. Supreme Court and the Constitution. Governor Newsom’s angst toward the foundations of America’s freedoms exceeds the borders of his state and his law attempts to exert California’s radical gun control agenda across the United States. NSSF will defend our Constitutionally-protected industry against the broadsides of this extremist agenda.”

NSSF’s challenge explains that AB 1594, misleadingly titled the “Firearm Industry Responsibility Act,” is a law that was drafted prior to the Bruen decision and signed just weeks after the Supreme Court published the landmark ruling. Rather than re-examining the legislation to ensure it complied with Supreme Court precedent, Gov. Newsom forged ahead, challenging the ruling when he signed it.

The law bans the manufacture, sale and marketing of firearms the state deems “abnormally dangerous” regardless if they are commonly-owned. It also encourages civil lawsuits by a person who has suffered harm in California, the Attorney General, or city or county attorneys against a firearm industry member for the harm caused by the criminal misuse of a firearm by a remote third party. This is expressly prohibited by PLCAA. The law unconstitutionally invades the sovereignty of sister states by directly regulating lawful commerce occurring entirely and wholly outside the state of California in violation of the Commerce Clause and our system of federalism.

Further, the law not only infringes on Second Amendment rights but chills First Amendment rights by restricting protected free-speech advertising of Constitutionally-protected products that are lawfully made and sold – even when that advertising takes place outside of California’s borders.

California’s AB 1594 is clearly unconstitutional on several fronts. The law is an affront to the U.S. Constitution and rights that belong to the People. It is nothing less than an unlawful attempt to abuse the courts to achieve “legislation through litigation.”



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.

Dan Wesson DWX Compact Pistol – NOW SHIPPING

Dan Wesson DWX Compact Pistol – NOW SHIPPING

Norwich, NY (May 22, 2023) – The DWX Compact pistol inherits the best traits of two flagship pistols, the CZ 75 and the Dan Wesson 1911—handguns synonymous with quality, durability, and performance. The DWX Compact incorporates the same premium features as the full-sized DWX but in a smaller, more concealable package. Its lightweight aluminum frame and shorter barrel make it ideal for everyday carry, while its design delivers improved ergonomics.

The DWX starts with the crisp single-action fire control group from a Dan Wesson 1911 and combines it with the ergonomics and capacity of a CZ pistol. A flat, K-style trigger with a textured face offers positive contact—a familiar feel to 1911 shooters, while its grip angle and contour draw their lineage directly to the proven CZ 75 known for its comfort and control.

The DWX Compact utilizes the Ned Christiansen style frag pattern on the front, backstrap, and Henning aluminum grips for a comfortable shooting experience that provides traction. The grip’s low-profile design naturally positions the shooter’s hand high in the beavertail for optimum recoil control. CZ 75 Compact grip compatibility with the DWX allows customization with aftermarket options.

A locked-breech linkless barrel system adds strength and simplicity. Field maintenance is a breeze with the CZ-style take-down via the slide stop. Borrowing the time-proven CZ 75 Compact double-stack magazine body, the compact has a 15+1 capacity with Henning aluminum base pads for added durability.

Good sights are essential, and the DWX compact includes some of the best for personal protection and competition. A night front sight and fixed Battlehook rear sight provide rapid target acquisition day or night and easily slip in and out of a holster; both are rugged and reliable. The firearm’s DLC (Diamond Like Coating) protects the pistol’s exterior metal surfaces from wear and corrosion.

A match-grade 4-inch barrel with a bushing-less barrel system, offering shooters unparalleled accuracy and easy take-down. At the same time, its low-profile left-side safety delivers easy access for right-handed shooters. For left-handed shooters, the same ambidextrous safety used on the full-size DWX can be installed on the Compact and will be available for sale on the CZ webstore. Front and rear serrations on the slide improve grip for cocking, giving the operator positive traction even with wet or sweaty hands.

Competitive shooters will appreciate the DWX Compact’s tunability and customizability. A reversible mag release offers proper ambidextrous function. Many factory and aftermarket 1911 fire control group parts are available. Front sights for the Novak-style dovetail and rear sights for the CZ Shadow 2-style sights fit the DWX Compact. An industry standard 1913 Picatinny rail makes mounting a light or laser easy.

The Dan Wesson DWX Compact is shipping now. It’s a modern pistol with the finer points of a classic 1911 built, like every Dan Wesson, with quality materials and parts and finished with an attention to detail.

Fisher Space Pen® and Axiom Space® Partner with Rich History as Historical Space Travel Pioneers


Fisher Space Pen® and Axiom Space® Partner with Rich History as Historical Space Travel Pioneers

Boulder City, NV (May 22, 2023) – In the 20th century, the world had an abundance of life-changing inventions, and there is one line of products that has changed the history of stationery forever – the Fisher Space Pen.

Since Fisher Pen Company’s conception in 1948, Fisher has been the industry leader in producing writing instruments beloved by millions of Americans as their everyday carry pen. In 1966, Fisher developed the first sealed and pressurized ink cartridge featured in their pen models. The Original Astronaut Space Pen was soon adopted by NASA and used on all crewed space flights both American and Russian. The Fisher Space Pen has cemented a long relationship with space travel as the go-to space pen for crewed NASA® missions. This history will soon pair with Axiom Space® to pioneer a new era of space exploration.

Paul C. Fisher invented and patented the Sealed and Pressurized Fisher Space Pen Ink Cartridge. This cartridge allowed the Fisher Pen to write at any angle. The Sealed and Pressurized Fisher Space Pen Ink Cartridge equipped the AG7, the “Anti-Gravity” Original Astronaut Pen later chosen by NASA for its space missions. Although Fisher Space Pen’s presence in the American public has been significant in multifold ways, its involvement in space travel makes its history and products even more fascinating.

A problem for NASA was that the average pen could not write in space due to the lack of gravity as they were searching for writing instruments for astronauts during the Space Race. That was when Paul C. Fisher presented his AG7 to NASA. The Original Astronaut Space Pen debuted on the Apollo 7 space mission after 18 months of robust testing by NASA. The Fisher Space Pen’s journey into space expanded as Russian space programs adopted it in 1969 debunking the infamous ‘Russian Pencil Myth’. Since 1981, Fisher’s Chrome Plated Shuttle Space Pen began and has been onboarding every crewed space flight NASA has ever conducted.

The glorious success of Fisher Space Pen for over seven decades on the planet and in outer space comes down to the pure brilliance of its products. The second-to-none reputation of Fisher’s Pressurized Ink Cartridge stems from its supreme writability, versatility, and dependability. This rich history with space travel excites Fisher Space Pen’s brand and Axiom Space for a partnership, as Fisher will be the first pen to be placed in Axiom’s upcoming commercial space station.

Fisher Space Pen and Axiom Space are thrilled to begin this partnership in space travel and cultivate the next generation of space explorers. The pride of going above and beyond that both entities hold dear makes ingenuity and innovation so special, whether in outer space or in the palm of your hand.

For more information, please visit https://www.spacepen.com/

About Fisher Space Pen

Fisher Pen Company is a 75-year-old American manufacturer of ballpoint pens, with the notable distinction of being the only ballpoint pen used on every crewed flight into space since Apollo 7 back in 1968. While pressurized technology made it possible for NASA’s astronauts to write in space, it also provided writing capabilities in all-weather, underwater, over oil and grease, and from -30 to +250 degrees Fahrenheit. These pens are the perfect tool for trade professionals, first responders, military, rugged outdoor enthusiasts, trekkers, backpackers, industrial manufacturers, underwater divers, and anyone who values a pen that doesn’t fail.

XS Sights Introduces R3D Night Sights for Kimber K6s Revolver

Kimber K6 - R3D Orange 2 (002)

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.

Maxim Defense DSX D Suppressor

Maxim Defense DSX:D Suppressor:

Top-Rated Performance, Superior Suppression

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:

  • · Increase reliability and longevity with host firearms due to low gas blowback and low gain in firearm cyclic rate compared to other more traditional suppressor designs.
  • · 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
  • · Disassembles with common tools.
  • · Secondary retention feature for the suppressor tube
  • · Material Composition: Grade-5 Titanium, 17-4 SS
  • · Weight: 21 oz
  • · Length: 7.9” overall length

The DSX achieved a composite Suppression Rating™ of 38.8 when paired with a 10.3-inch barrel MK18 and fired with Federal XM193 55gr. 5.56 Federal ammunition.

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.
  • Decreases flash, decreases recoil, increases accuracy.
  • Fully and easily serviceable.
  • Disassembles with common tools.

The MSX suppressor line by Maxim Defense is specifically designed to minimize the increase in cyclic rate and gas blowback of a suppressed weapon system.  Primary design features include the significant reduction of sound signature, decreasing flash signature, reduction of recoil, increase in accuracy.

Duty built for the world’s most rigorous demands, this suppressor is designed to be the most robust and strongest suppressor in category.  It has been repeatably tested with SOCOM tables across a variety of calibers and barrel lengths, down to 5.5” 5.56 NATO round with M855 ball ammunition, and has survived with no damage or significant changes in sound reduction.

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.

May 18, 2023

BARNEVELD, Wis. – The rock-solid reliability of Vortex® Pro Rings is now available in a new size: high (1.45″) 34mm Pro Riflescope Rings. Delivering the same streamlined strength and high-quality machining as all Pro Rings, our 34mm Pro Ring family now includes medium (1.10″) and high (1.45″).
For out-of-the-box, mount-and-shoot simplicity, Pro Riflescope Rings have laser-engraved torque specs so you’ll never under- or over-torque your rings. For the most secure mount, four T-25 Torx®-style socket cap screws lock your optic down for maximum accuracy, shot after shot. An integrated recoil lug further protects your zero.
Crafted from 6061 Aluminum, these rings are a perfect combination of lightweight and powerful, standing up to heavy recoil without weighing down your rifle. Finished with a low-glare, matte black anodized coating, they won’t reveal your location in the field. Made in America and available now, these are the big tube, ultra-precise mounting solution you need.

SeaGuardian Used by USN in Support of Integrated Battle Problem

Japan starts operations with SeaGuardian drone, receives two Hawkeyes

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

General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc. (GA-ASI), an affiliate of General Atomics, is a leading designer and manufacturer of proven, reliable Remotely Piloted Aircraft (RPA) systems, radars, and electro-optic and related mission systems, including the Predator® RPA series and the Lynx® Multi-mode Radar.

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.”

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.
