Enter your Youth to Win GPO’S Free 2-Day Youth Turkey Hunt


Enter your Youth to Win GPO’S Free 2-Day Youth Turkey Hunt

RICHMOND, Va. (Feb. 21, 2023) — GPO USA, a leading manufacturer and distributor of high-quality sporting optics, has partnered with other industry leaders to award one of seven guided and filmed two-day youth turkey hunts in North Carolina. The hunt will take place on a luxury 11,000 acre private ranch. The youth must be between the ages of 10-15 and must have a valid hunter safety certificate. All meals and lodging will be included for the youth and an adult companion. Each winner will also receive a turkey gun from O.F. Mossberg & Sons, Inc. topped with a GPO SpectraDot® scope and a care package from the others sponsors which include Methodical Media, Edge of the Wild, SPUR Brand, Fox Trot Ammo, HOV Outdoors and Killum Calls.

Entering the contest is easy. Simply go to the GPO Facebook page, https://www.facebook.com/gpousaoptics, like the post and nominate a youth hunter in the comments (if they don’t have social media just comment their name.) Bonus entries can be obtained by sharing the post and tagging GPO. The more you share the more chances you have to win the GPO giveaway. Participants can also enter to win one of the other six hunts from the other sponsors Facebook pages. Each sponsor will be giving away a similar prize package.
“GPO USA has always been a huge proponent of supporting youth hunters, as well as creating new ways to bring young people into hunting, and this is an exciting opportunity to do just that,” said Mike Jensen, GPO USA’s owner and CEO. “In addition to sponsoring one of the contest winners and one adult observer, we’ll be awarding all of the seven youth winners with one of GPO’s cutting-edge SpectraDot® red dot optics that will be mounted on their free Mossberg® shotgun.”

Each participating company will select one winning hunter, for a total of seven youth hunters. There will be two separate hunting groups of four hunters, each accompanied by a caller/cameraman with them. Each hunter will be allowed to harvest one gobbler. Winning hunters and their adult companion are responsible for their own transportation to the hunting location, with all hunt-related expenses paid for once on site for the duration of the hunt. Methodical Media will film and produce the event, which will subsequently be released on Edge of the Wild on Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube.

The contest runs now through February 28, 2023. Winners will be notified via email. The hunt will take place in April 2023.

FN HERSTAL BALLISTIC CALCULATORS DEPLOYED BY THE FRENCH ARMY

FN Herstal unveils its new FN Elity next gen solution for snipers, spotters  and precision shooters - EDR Magazine

Specialized in the creation of innovative solutions based on small arms, the Belgian company FN Herstal is pleased to announce a first major order of FN Elity® ballistic calculators, manufactured in Europe (ITAR-free) and for use by French snipers and designated marksmen.

In early 2022, the Battle-Lab Terre (BLT) – Ground Forces Battle Lab –, a structure created with the aim of boosting innovation within the French Army, acquired a first batch of FN Elity® and initiated a test phase with French units composed of snipers and designated marksmen.
This phase, which lasted several months, enabled operational shooters to successfully test and evaluate the ballistic calculator on various weapon platforms: 12.7mm rifles and 7.62mm sniper/precision rifles (PGM and FN SCAR®-H PR). Most importantly, it demonstrated how the FN Herstal ballistic calculator considerably improves the shooter’s performance, reduces “detection-neutralization” time by 40% and improves shooting accuracy by 25%. It also lightens the equipment carried by snipers by 6 kilos.

“This first project for innovation conducted with the company FN Herstal went particularly well, mostly due to the excellent collaboration between the Battle-Lab Terre and the Belgian manufacturer. It ends well since it demonstrates the effectiveness of the system and leads to the acquisition of a first batch that benefits French forces. It thus opens the door to further acquisitions for full-service capacity, the terms and atiming of which are yet to be defined, and to other collaborations with FN Herstal”, explains squadron leader Tanguy de Brosse, in charge of the project at the BLT.
In accordance with Army procedures, the order was passed by SIMMT (integrated structure for the maintenance in operational condition of land equipment), in charge of the acquisition of this type of equipment for use by French Forces.

NAVDEX 2023: RAFAEL’s Enhanced TYPHOON C-UAS Capabilities & 6th Gen. Naval SPIKE NLOS on Display

NAVAL SPIKE NLOS_missile (002)NAVDEX 2023: RAFAEL’s Enhanced TYPHOON C-UAS Capabilities & 6th Gen. Naval SPIKE NLOS on Display

RAFAEL is arriving at NAVDEX after completing a unique live fire demonstration with successful interception rates. RAFAEL’s TYPHOON RCWS, successfully demonstrated Counter-UAS (C-UAS) capabilities in a series of tests and scenarios conducted in the last month. These new capabilities will be shown with footage of various interceptions at sea.

As a world leader with a global install base of more than 750 medium caliber Stabilized naval RCWS Systems, RAFAEL is offering its TYPHOON Mk30-c and TYPHOON 25 mm class (in service with several navies around the world, including the US navy) as a solution for airborne, marine, and shore-based threats, including C-UAS.

In late 2022, RAFAEL announced that it had been awarded a major contract with a leading Asian navy for its TYPHOON Mk30-c, as well as the commissioning of its TYPHOON and mini-TYPHOON RCWS onboard FAIC-M / SHALDAG Mk5 vessels in the Philippine navy as part of a complete RAFAEL combat suite. TYPHOON RCWS has recently demonstrated its improved C-UAS capabilities using AI-powered Automatic Fire Correction and ATR to effectively defeat small and medium UAS. This is all made possible by incorporating a diverse mix of synchronized smart multi-spectral sensors, weapons, and intelligent effectors that translate to very high hit accuracies.

RAFAEL’s new Naval SPIKE NLOS (non-line-of-sight) 6th Generation missiles will also be showcased. These new missiles can turn any OPV or patrol boat into a highly effective combat vessel, with advanced capabilities against all naval and coastal threats. Naval SPIKE NLOS provides pinpoint accuracy with a maximum range of 32 km, using electro-optical guidance and advanced fire control. This combat-proven system is operational in various navies worldwide and is compatible with a range of warheads, including High Explosive Anti-Tank (HEAT), Penetration Blast Fragmentation (PBF), with warhead detonation control, and fragmentation. SPIKE family systems have been sold to 39 countries worldwide, including 19 NATO countries.

Another innovative system showcased is the C-GEM shipborne off-board RF Active Decoy (RFAD) system which protects naval vessels from anti-ship missiles through electromagnetic spectrum manipulation. C-GEM jams and deceives threats from multiple directions, independent of ship maneuvers.

Korte Callahan

1911s  Parts & Accessories  Revolvers

The Korth Callahan

Nighthawk Custom has partnered with Korth to bring an iconic weapon from the silver screen to life in a way that only Korth can do. The result is the all-new Korth Callahan model, designed after Clint Eastwood’s legendary character, Inspector Harry Callahan, and his famed weapon of choice, the .44 Magnum revolver. This iconic firearm is now available in limited quantities.

What was once dubbed “The most powerful handgun in the world” has been brought to life by the world-renowned craftsmen of Korth. Chambered in .44 Magnum, the 7.5″ barrel gives the shooter optimal accuracy down range when shooting. The cylinder holds six rounds of ammunition.

This revolver not only boasts the swagger of Inspector Harry Callahan, but it has looks that are just as deadly as Dirty Harry himself. The entire revolver features a black DLC finish that has been fully high polished for a pristine look. The trigger and hammer have both been color case hardened, adding another dash of class to this revolver. The Korth logo is finished in gold, matching the gold bead front sight while the rear sight is fully adjustable. A beautiful Turkish Walnut grip provides great aesthetics while also feeling comfortable in the hand.

For more information on the Korth Callahan model, or any other model in the Korth lineup, contact your local Nighthawk Custom dealer or give us a call directly at 877-268-4867. We’d love to put you in contact with a dealer who has the model you’re looking for in stock! There are limited quantities of the Korth Callahan available, so act soon to get yours today!

Cosaint Arms Introduces Cutting-Edge CP Series of Pistols

Feb. 17, 2023

Cosaint Arms Introduces Cutting Edge CP Series Pistols

(East Flat Rock, NC) – Cosaint Arms, a leading manufacturer of premium firearms, is proud to announce the release of its new CP series of pistols. This revolutionary line of firearms features a uniquely designed ported slide and barrel. This design not only reduces muzzle flip, but it also allows for a constant view of the front sight, providing shooters with greater accuracy and improved shooting performance.

The CP series includes standard features such as an optic ready design with cover plate, ambi-safety, aluminum frame, and a standard Cerakote finish. The series is available in compact size (CS), mid-size (MS), and full size (FS) options, allowing shooters to select the best fit for their needs.
“We are super excited to offer this pistol series to the industry,” says Greg Mooney, President of Cosaint Arms. “The ported slide and barrel really make a huge difference in target acquisition and keeping the handgun on target at a rate of 20-30% more effectively during firing. This equals better performance and really gives the shooter a strong advantage compared to the traditional barrel and slide design.”

The model name, COS21-CPFS, is chambered in 9mm and features a magazine capacity of 20+1. The barrel length is 5.0 inches and the overall length is 8.5 inches, making it easy to handle and maneuver. With a weight of 30.6 oz., the CP series is designed for maximum performance and control.

The MSRP for the COS21-CPFS is $2,800, making it an excellent value for premium quality and performance. Whether for personal protection or competition use, the CP series offers shooters the cutting-edge technology and innovative design they have come to expect from Cosaint Arms.

For more information on the CP series or to purchase, please visit the Cosaint Arms website or contact a dealer near you.

ABOUT COSAINT ARMS

COSAINT ARMS took the best features of the 1911 as well as this modular design and developed a carry gun that is also modular, customizable, less felt recoil, and is lighter (25.6 oz.) than any other 3.5″ 1911 on the market today. In addition, we make many of our own components. Parts engineered and produced to a specification assemble and work extremely well together. This means limited hand fitting yet results in an accurate gun that will last.

NSSF Applauds Sen. Daines’ FIND Act Stand Against ‘Woke’ Discrimination

February 16, 2023

NSSF Applauds Sen. Daines’ FIND Act Stand Against ‘Woke’ Discrimination

WASHINGTON, D.C. — NSSF®, The Firearm Industry Trade Association, welcomed the introduction of S. 428, the Firearm Industry Nondiscrimination (FIND) Act, into Congress by U.S. Sen. Steve Daines (R-Mont.). The bill has 14 original co-sponsors. This vital legislation will end the ability of corporate entities from profiting from taxpayer-funded federal contracts while discriminating against a constitutionally-protected industry at the same time.

“This legislation led by Senator Daines puts ‘woke’ corporations on notice that Americans’ God-given Second Amendment rights aren’t for sale. Corporations that choose to deny lawful businesses in the firearm industry essential goods and services would no longer benefit from taxpayer-funded federal contracts, which they use to fund their gun control agenda,” said Lawrence G. Keane, NSSF Senior Vice President and General Counsel. “This bill will ensure public policies are crafted by the elected officials the American public sends to represent them and not unaccountable “woke” corporate executives. We thank Senator Daines for his leadership to ensure fairness in business, reasserting Congress’ role in ensuring the federal government isn’t picking marketplace winners and losers based on politics and protecting the ability of a lawful industry to compete for goods and services without artificial and agenda-driven barriers.”

Sen. Daines’ FIND Act does not tell companies with whom they must do business. However, just as companies can choose who they wish to do business with, so can the government when it spends taxpayers’ money. This bill ensures corporations cannot benefit from contracts and subcontracts funded by taxpayers only to use their financial strength to unfairly discriminate against the firearm industry. For far too long, corporations have engaged in “boardroom gun control” to force firearm businesses to adopt measures that would restrict Americans’ Second Amendment rights. Corporations are free to hold these anti-Second Amendment policies if they choose but would forfeit access to lucrative federal contracts.

U.S. Rep. Jack Bergman introduced companion legislation, H.R. 53, in the U.S. House of Representatives, which has 102 co-sponsors. Texas Republican Gov. Greg Abbott signed a similar law in Texas in 2021 and similar legislation is being considered in other state capitols.

Senators Daines’ legislation would bring those same fair business protections to the federal government to ensure corporate entities are not forcing policies that deny American civil liberties through the benefit of taxpayer-funded federal contracts.

Team Winchester members Anthony Matarese Jr. and Joe Fanizzi proved once again why they are two of the top sporting clays shooters in the world.

Matarese Jr. and Fanizzi Reach the Podium at Fujairah Mountain Shoot

EAST ALTON, IL (February 16, 2023) — Team Winchester members Anthony Matarese Jr. and Joe Fanizzi proved once again why they are two of the top sporting clays shooters in the world. Matarese Jr. and Fanizzi recently traveled to the United Arab Emirates for the first inaugural Fujairah Mountain Championship.  This event offered one of the largest prizes in the shooting sports with over $200,000 in added money paid out to top shooters.
More than 400 of the best sporting clays competitors from 44 different countries gathered to compete while also having to battle the harsh desert conditions and steep mountainous terrain. When the dust had settled, Matarese claimed 2nd place while Fanizzi took home the Junior championship and overall 3rd place.
“Anthony and Joe represented Team Winchester and the U.S. on the world shooting sports stage, and proved they are two of the best,” said Matt Campbell, vice president of sales and marketing for Winchester. “It’s exciting to see new events like this one and understand the importance of the shooting sports in different countries.”

Rimfire Challenge Shooting Association Joins NSSF +ONE® Movement as Official Partner

February 16, 2023

Rimfire Challenge Shooting Association Joins NSSF +ONE® Movement as Official Partner

WASHINGTON, D.C. — The Rimfire Challenge Shooting Association (RCSA) has signed on to be an official partner of the +ONE® Movement, a mentorship initiative developed by NSSF®, The Firearm Industry Trade Association, that focuses on peer-to-peer-driven development in shooting sports and hunting.

The +ONE Movement is an initiative developed by NSSF in response to studies showing millions of people want to know more about hunting and target shooting. The initiative encourages communities across the nation to participate in mentorship related to firearm safety, firearm basics, shooting sports and hunting.

Designed to introduce new shooters to the shooting sports in an exciting, family-friendly format, Rimfire Challenge matches focus on competition with .22-caliber rifles and pistols. Matches are open to shooters of all ages and shooting experience levels, with events conducted at ranges nationwide and an annual World Championship taking place each October.

The RCSA is the clearinghouse for participants and scheduled matches, and it provides the framework for events through the RCSA rule book. The organization also promotes rimfire competition to interested individuals and organizations, supports the efforts of beginning competitors and clubs, and solicits support for rimfire events from organizations and industry businesses interested in sustaining a shooting sport that provides opportunities for participants of all skill levels.

“RCSA is looking forward to a long relationship with NSSF,” stated RCSA Board President Peter Swenson. “Shooting is a lifetime activity. Getting kids and family members shooting together will build amazing bonds!”

A major barrier for people wanting to learn about hunting and target shooting is that basic knowledge of them is not passed down from adults to youth as commonly as it once was. That’s where programs that inspire mentoring can make a huge difference. According to recent research, if just one out of three target shooters and hunters can introduce someone new to the shooting sports, they can help secure a strong future for generations to come.

NSSF asks its member businesses, outdoor media and content creators on social media to help spread the word about the +ONE Movement, reminding everyone in the firearm-owning community that they can play a role in establishing a secure future for hunting and shooting sports.

For all the shooting sports and hunting have done to enrich your life, join the +ONE movement and invite someone to the range or afield. Learn more about the +ONE Movement on LetsGoHunting.org (https://www.letsgohunting.org/plusonemovement/) and LetsGoShooting.org (https://www.letsgoshooting.org/plusonemovement/).

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.

FALCO® HOLSTERS COMMITMENT TO DEALERS DELIVERS SHOT SHOW SUCCESS

Ft. Lauderdale, FL – February 15, 2023 – FALCO® Holsters, globally recognized for exceptional artisanship in every handcrafted, purpose-built leather holster, enjoyed unprecedented success during the NSSF® SHOT Show 2023 by focusing on dealer support through partnerships and new product innovations.

“We made our sell-through dealer support program a priority for 2023,” said FALCO Holsters Vice President of Sales and Marketing Katarína Zacharová. “The retailers we met with during SHOT Show were enthusiastic about our margins, MAP pricing, and the ease of working with us,” she commented.

“One of the exciting new dealers we’ve added to our list of partners is Frontier Justice,” said Zacharová. “As a destination retailer and range headquartered in Missouri, they approach gun ownership as a lifestyle through a personalized approach. That matches perfectly with our one on one style of business.”

According to Zacharová, there are many benefits for dealers who partner with FALCO Holsters. “It is crucial to listen carefully to the needs of front-line retailers, and their message has been clear. They want to carry exclusive products customers can only purchase from them, without the competition of other brick-and-mortar locations, online retailers, or big box stores. Through this direct dealer collaboration, our retailers differentiate their product assortment from others and enjoy a competitive edge,” she said.

FALCO Holsters puts tremendous effort into collaborating with retail partners. “We recognize conserving shelf space is crucial for dealers, so we offer a Multifit line of premium leather holsters,” commented Zacharová. And, as the popularity of weapon-mounted lights, lasers, and sights continues, we have many optics-ready choices for dealers to choose from.”

The research and development of new gun holsters and EDC products are essential to FALCO’s strategic growth plan. “We regularly develop new designs with input from our partners. Their front-line contact with gun owners is informative and current. Plus, everyone is pleased with the high-quality FALCO materials and artistry. Stay tuned for updates on our newest holster innovation coming in March. It is yet another product that caters to retailers,” she said.

NSSF Welcomes U.S. Senator Crapo’s Hearing Protection Act

February 15, 2023

NSSF Welcomes U.S. Senator Crapo’s Hearing Protection Act

WASHINGTON, D.C. — NSSF®, The Firearm Industry Trade Association, proudly welcomes U.S. Sen. Mike Crapo’s (R-Idaho) reintroduction of the Hearing Protection Act. The legislation, S. 401, is co-sponsored by 24 additional senators, all who endorse the legislation that would provide greater access to the firearm safety devices by regulating them in the same manner as a firearm.

“This no-nonsense legislation by Senator Crapo would remove unnecessary and onerous regulations for an accessory that is nothing more than a muffler for a gun,” said Lawrence G. Keane, NSSF Senior Vice President and General Counsel. “Suppressors are safety tools that reduce the sound of gunfire to a level that won’t cause instant and permanent hearing loss, enables more accurate marksmanship and allows shooting ranges to be better neighbors. The Hearing Protection Act would reduce unnecessary barriers for this accessory that is currently regulated the same way as automatic firearms. Suppressors were originally listed under the National Firearms Act over poaching concerns during the Great Depression, but those fears proved to be unfounded. Suppressors don’t completely silence a firearm, only reduce the report from a level equal to a jet taking off to one similar to that of a jackhammer. NSSF is grateful to Senator Crapo for his leadership to remove unneeded barriers to owning a safety device that is designed to make recreational shooting safer.”

The Hearing Protection Act, which was introduced by Sen. Crapo in previous Congresses, would reclassify suppressors to regulate them like traditional firearms by removing them from the 1934 National Firearms Act. That would cease the overly burdensome federal transfer process with an instantaneous National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) verification, making the purchase and transfer process for suppressors equal to the process for a rifle or shotgun. The legislation would also tax suppressors under the Pittman-Robertson Act instead of the National Firearms Act, putting more funding into state wildlife conservation agencies.

The Hearing Protection Act would not change any laws in states that already prevent suppressor use or ownership, nor does it eliminate background check requirements. Suppressors are legal to own in 42 states and 41 states allow them for hunting. Similar legislation, H.R. 152, was introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives earlier this year by Rep. Jeff Duncan (R-S.C.).
