Virtual-Shot Offers Pistol Fundamentals Course

Virtual-Shot Offers Pistol Basics Training Course

Bardon, Australia (July 2022) — Simulation Training Group updates the Virtual-Shot app with a five-course pistol basics training tutorial. The course is instructed by a former Special Forces Commando who teaches advanced pistol and urban combat skills.

The all-new pistol series joins the basic rifle series, taught by a member of the Virtual-Shot team, who is a former Infantry Sniper and Military Contractor.


Training videos are embedded in the Virtual-Shot app, allowing members to practice the fundamentals of pistol shooting from the comfort of their homes. The training videos help new shooters learn the basics of shooting and help experienced shooters refine their skills prior to firing live rounds.

Visiting a shooting range for the first time can often be intimidating, especially when Mr. Tacticool is at the range. Being able to practice the fundamentals of pistol shooting prior to visiting a gun range can give new shooters the confidence needed to fine-tune their skills.


Daryl Batchelor, CEO and Co-Founder of Simulation Training Group explained,  “There are a lot of great shooters out there, but it always amazes me whenever I go to a range to see so many shooters getting the fundamentals wrong and wondering why their shots are not going where they want. We believe that all shooters should have access to the knowledge and resources to improve their shooting and that is part of what we are trying to achieve with Virtual-Shot – democratizing access to shooting by enabling all shooters to refine their shooting skills, not just those that can afford to spend hundreds of dollars on ammo each week and every weekend at the range and thousands on personal coaching.”

The Virtual-Shot team is also building a Shooting Resource Center, offering videos as free online courses at www.course.virtual-shot.com, where users can get free access to the pistol courses without owning the Virtual-Shot system.

Other updates to the app include:

  • · .22LR ballistic pre-sets
  • · Additional targets
  • · Improved shot detection control
  • · 24hr free trial option so users can test out the app before buying a Virtual-Shot Mount
  • · Multi-language translations

About Virtual-Shot:

Virtual-Shot is designed and built by a team of Australian Army Veterans. The idea for Virtual-Shot began in 2010 while training for deployment to Afghanistan. Training became difficult at times with limited ammunition and access to ranges and existing simulation systems. Returning from Afghanistan and making a career move into software development got the ball rolling for CEO and Co-Founder Daryl. The team soon discovered that creating an accessible shooting simulation system for soldiers was achievable using advanced mobile technology. Since then, Virtual-Shot has become the go-to option for serious shooters wanting to perfect their skills anywhere.

Wilson Combat Celebrates It’s 45th Anniversary

In 1977, champion pistol shooter Bill Wilson started Wilson Combat in the back of the family jewelry store to support his passion for firearms. 45 years later, Wilson Combat is a fully integrated specialty gun and accessory manufacturer that employs hundreds of people in NW Arkansas, and at sister companies across the United States.
Beginning with basic 1911 gunsmithing, parts, and accessories, this little company quickly became the leading one-stop shop for competition and defensive handgunners looking for high-quality pistol smithing and gear at a fair price. After supplying many of the world’s top pistol shooters, Wilson Combat branched out into defensive carry guns and gear, tactical shotguns, and AR rifles and now manufactures almost every gun part needed for production in their state-of-the-art precision manufacturing facility.  New in-house designs like the immensely popular EDC X9 series of handguns and partnerships with industry leaders SIG-SAUER and Beretta have made Wilson Combat firearms more accessible and have boosted the company’s market share.
Over the years, Wilson Combat has been honored to employ some of the finest 1911 pistolsmiths in the country. These master craftsmen like Ron Phillips, Jim “Henry” Wilson, Mike Campbell, and Victor Tibbets have worked for decades refining the 1911 handgun, becoming true masters of the platform and ensuring that Wilson Combat Custom 1911’s remain among the most functionally reliable and cosmetically appealing available at any price.
Tremendous internal growth, as well as acquisitions of other innovative brands like Scattergun Technologies, Chip McCormick Custom, Lehigh Defense, and most recently New Ultralight Arms, has established Wilson Combat as an industry leader in the specialty firearms and accessory market, but our focus will never leave the design that helped bring us to this point-John Browning’s amazing creation-the 1911 Government Model.
“It’s hard to believe that the one man gunsmithing shop I started in a 10’x20′ area in the back of my dad’s jewelry store 45 years ago has grown to a multi-brand enterprise with over 200 employees in 3 states. It’s been quite a ride and it couldn’t have been accomplished without our awesome team members” – Bill Wilson, President CEO
“It’s such an honor to be a part of the family business and to have the opportunity to lead Wilson Combat into the future” – Cameron Ankele, COO

NSSF Hires Clement & Murphy, PLLC

NSSF has retained Paul Clement and Erin Murphy of Clement & Murphy, PLLC, to represent NSSF in its appeal to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit in its lawsuit, NSSF et al v. James.

July 6, 2022

NSSF Hires Clement & Murphy, PLLC

NEWTOWN, Conn. — NSSF®, The Firearm Industry Trade Association, is announcing it has retained Paul Clement and Erin Murphy of Clement & Murphy, PLLC, to represent NSSF in its appeal to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit in its lawsuit, NSSF et al v. James. The lawsuit challenges New York State’s unlawful public nuisance statute, which is designed to impose New York-style gun control on the lawful sale of firearms and ammunition products by permitting lawsuits against members of the industry for the criminal misuse of firearms that find their way into New York even when the sale occurred wholly outside the State of New York and in compliance with all applicable federal and the state laws where it took place.

Paul Clement and Erin Murphy recently formed their own law firm after their prior firm, Kirkland & Ellis, abruptly announced it would, “no longer represent clients with respect to matters involving the interpretation of the Second Amendment.” That announcement came just days after Clement and Murphy won the landmark U.S. Supreme Court case of New York State Rifle & Pistol Association v. Bruen in which the court held the Second Amendment protects the right of law-abiding Americans to carry a firearm in public for self-protection.

Rather than abandon their clients in the midst of ongoing representations, Clement and Murphy continue to stand by their principles and defend their clients’ fundamental Constitutional rights. They wrote in the Wall Street Journal, “The American legal profession’s willingness to take on and stand by controversial clients has made our system of justice the envy of the world. The profession shouldn’t back down from its willingness to tackle the most divisive issues. We certainly won’t.”

“NSSF is proud to be represented by such accomplished and skilled appellate lawyers who clearly demonstrate the depth of character so badly needed in today’s legal system,” said Lawrence G. Keane, NSSF Senior Vice President and General Counsel. “Both Clement and Murphy demonstrated bold and decisive resolve to stand with their clients instead of abandoning them at the behest of their previous firm. They have a sterling professional legal reputation that is solidly matched with their fidelity to their clients. NSSF and our industry co-plaintiffs are in the very capable hands of the nation’s premier appellate law firm of Clement & Murphy, PLLC.”

Clement served as U.S. solicitor general during the President George W. Bush administration from 2004-2008. Murphy is an accomplished appellate lawyer who has argued several cases before the Supreme Court.

Formed in 1961, NSSF has a membership of thousands of manufacturers, distributors, firearm retailers, shooting ranges, sportsmen’s organizations and publishers nationwide.

RISE Armament and Folds of Honor

RISE Armament and Folds of Honor: A Proud Partnership

There are more than 1 million disabled and fallen service members. Nearly 2 million military heroes’ dependents are negatively impacted by war. The cost to provide educational scholarships to those dependents is a whopping $9 billion, and 85% of the families don’t qualify for federal aid.

That’s where Folds of Honor comes in. They provide educational scholarships to the children and spouses of those who were killed or disabled while serving our great nation.
Our troops and their families have unselfishly sacrificed, so we can sleep safely each night and enjoy our sweet liberties each day. As Americans, we have to give back.
That’s why RISE Armament is partnering with Folds of Honor by designing and manufacturing special products that benefit the Folds of Honor foundation.
“To say we’re proud to help out and donate to Folds of Honor is an understatement,” says Matt Torres, president of RISE Armament. “Veterans’ families are often overlooked, which is really a shame. Our troops and their families have tremendous courage and have made so many sacrifices. It’s our duty as Americans, as patriots, to take care of them and honor what they’ve done for us all.”
Here are a few reasons RISE Armament is especially proud to team up with Folds of Honor:

· The scholarships Folds of Honor gives honor the sacrifices of those who have given so much to protect our freedom.

· Folds of Honor operates efficiently and respectfully, allowing the organization to donate 91% of every dollar raised to its scholarships.

· Folds of Honor is based in Oklahoma, but it has awarded scholarships in all 50 states, as well as Guam, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands.

· Since 2007, Folds of Honor has awarded over 35,000 educational scholarships.

To further benefit Folds of Honor, RISE Armament developed the Patriot High-Performance Trigger and is donating a portion of each Patriot Trigger’s purchase price to the Folds of Honor foundation. It’s an easy-to-install, accuracy-enhancing rifle upgrade that gives back to veterans and their families. Each trigger purchase helps fund educational scholarships for children and spouses of fallen and disabled service members.

The Patriot Trigger has a crisp, clean release and ultra-short reset for faster follow-up shots and improved accuracy. It has a light, 3.5-pound pull and straight trigger blade.

A limited-edition item, the drop-in trigger group includes a Folds of Honor and RISE Armament commemorative challenge coin, along with free tools and anti-walk pins for fast and easy trigger installation.

This soft, comfortable shirt is made for true patriots. This shirt features a flag RISE Armament logo on the front and the Folds of Honor logo on the left sleeve. Celebrating the RISE Armament and Folds of Honor partnership, a portion of the purchase price will be donated to Folds of Honor.

The PFC9 and PFS9 complete pistols combine innovative ergonomics and features to provide the ultimate in shoot-ability and comfortable concealment. Built with high-strength reinforced polymer construction, the P80 pistol frames include an aggressive standard texture on the sides, front and backstrap for a superior grip in multiple environments. The complete slide features front and rear serrations coupled with clean, modern lines and a heavy front chamfer which allows effective manipulation and holstering of a P80 pistol while maintaining a low-key aesthetic profile. A black carrying case with foam insert and instruction manual is included with every PFC9/PFS9 complete pistol package.

The Stinger and Stinger RS – Bond Arms’ Newest Derringers are Lighter, Slimmer and Deliver a Double-Shot of Venom

The Stinger and Stinger RS – Bond Arms’ Newest Derringers are Lighter, Slimmer and Deliver a Double-Shot of Venom

20220519_143856.jpg

Granbury, TX (July 5, 2022) – Bond Arms is well-known for its compact, yet powerful, personal protection pistols. After years of research and development, the Bond Arms team released the Stinger – its lightest, smallest derringer ever. It has the familiar fit, feel, function, and reliability of other Bond double-barrelled pistols in an ultra-concealable and super-comfortable size and weight configuration. The Stinger is currently chambered for either 9mm or .380 auto. It’s made from advanced modern materials and engineered for durability.

The Stinger uses a slim, aluminum frame that is precision milled from a billet of 7075 aluminum, known industry-wide for toughness. A black hard-coat anodized finish further shields the frame in use. A generously sized, integral trigger guard protects the trigger, yet allows easy access. Slim, high-impact, Zytel, composite grips pair with the wasp-waisted pistol’s narrow profile, making it perfect for concealability. The Stinger also includes standard-sized, rubber grip panels for those who prefer a larger grip.

A stainless steel firing pin block inset into the aluminum frame strengthens the receiver and allows for the firing of +P rounds. The release lever, cross-bolt safety, hammer, and trigger are also stainless steel; adding steel parts in these critical areas enhances the Stinger’s durability. The Stinger’s 3-inch barrels match the frame’s narrow 0.55-inch profile and is available in 9mm and .380 auto, with a .22 long rifle model on the horizon.

At the recent 2022 NRA Meetings & Exhibits, Bond Arms debuted a stainless steel version of the Stinger: the Stinger RS. This slim and sleek rendition of the Stinger comes with all the original functionality, a reliable frame, and a friendly price point. This new edition is available from Bond Arms starting June 20th.

Bond Arms created the Stinger for customers wanting a lightweight, slim pistol chambered for powerful, defense rounds. Like all of Bond’s complete pistol lines, the Stinger is safe, durable, and reliable – perfect for self-defense.

BOND ARMS, INC. is located in Granbury, Texas and manufactures the award-winning Bond Arms Derringer – the finest in double barrel protection. Originally organized under the name Texas Armory, the company became incorporated as Bond Arms in 1995 with the idea that the Remington Model 95 over-under, single-action derringer could be converted from an Old West anachronism into a modern & reliable handgun. The barrel and frame were redesigned to safely fire modern calibers & the entire handgun is constructed entirely from stainless steel. This makes for a pistol that’s both strong and durable.

Galco’s Front Pocket Horsehide Holster for SIG-Sauer P365!

Galco Holsters

Galco’s Front Pocket Horsehide Holster for SIG-Sauer P365!

Click to Shop Now

Phoenix, July 2022

Now available for the SIG-Sauer P365!

Galco’s Front Pocket Horsehide Holster offers unique concealed carry advantages. Not only is the handgun completely covered and concealed, but the gun carrier can casually place a hand on the holstered/pocketed pistol if a nonspecific threat materializes – and the fastest draw is to have the gun already in hand.

Galco’s pocket holsters greatly minimize shifting of the handgun in the pocket, allowing for a fast and sure grip acquisition when drawing. Pocket holsters cover the trigger to prevent entanglement with foreign objects and add a safety barrier between fingers and trigger when acquiring a firing grip. They conceals the shape of the handgun so its outline doesn’t print through the pocket, and allow one-handed release of the handgun from both pocket and holster.

The Front Pocket Horsehide holster’s dual hook shapes – at the base of the handgun’s trigger guard and at the top rear of the slide – are designed to catch on the pocket independently, based on user preference, pocket shape and draw technique.

The Front Pocket Holster is ambidextrous and constructed of premium horsehide.

Beat Nature at its Own Game with Skeeter Hawk

Beat Nature at its Own Game with Skeeter Hawk

SKE_Web_Lifestyle_Product-Family-Backyard_3.jpg

Fort Worth, Texas (July 5, 2022) – There have been a number of “solutions” over the years that have been dreamt up to deal with mosquitoes and other pesky insects–many of those ideas centered on smelly, sometimes dangerous chemicals that had limited results.

There’s nothing worse than spending hard-earned dollars in an attempt to rid pests only to end up with a chemical smell and little to no effect on bothersome critters.

This begs the question, what can homeowners do to defeat these annoying, biting bugs in the battle for the backyard?

Skeeter Hawk has the answer – beat nature at its own game.

Skeeter Hawk products employ a blend of natural essential oils to repel insects effectively. They are the only wearable repellent wristbands and carabiners utilizing all-essential oils that aren’t dominated by citronella. Their ingredients – geraniol, lemongrass oil, and citronella oil – have proven to be more effective than citronella alone at repelling mosquitoes, and won’t leave the wearer reeking of chemicals.

Skeeter Hawk provides a versatile line of 360ª UV light bug zappers for the patio that attracts mosquitoes, moths and thousands of other flying pests. Once attracted, insects are zapped by the electrical grid, eliminating any swatting and smacking. Skeeter Hawk also has a rechargeable electric fly swatter to deal with those up-close pests.

Skeeter Hawks’ patented LED-based, dual-band UV technology is highly attractive to the vast majority of flying insects, including mosquitoes. Their vertical grid design makes their units cleaner and more efficient than others on the market.

How about the backyard? Skeeter Hawk will protect barbecues and children’s play areas with the Mosquito Bait Stations. The pests are drawn towards the baits by utilizing UV light technology, and the all-natural solution they feed on kills insects before they can breed again. 

Skeeter Hawk also provides a variety of UV light-based, whisper-quiet traps that attract and kill a variety of insects in your backyard, around pools and patios. They can also be used indoors to deal with insects that are infesting smaller spaces.

Lastly, unlike some chemical based pest control solutions out there, Skeeter Hawk’s options are affordable and reusable, with easy-to-use refills available for less than the cost of many competing products.

Find the system of Skeeter Hawk products that will work for you and your family by visiting https://skh.acgbrands.com/en_US/find-your-system/.


About Skeeter Hawk:

Skeeter Hawk is a full line of mosquito flying insect defense products that combine safe, all-natural ingredients with powerful elimination technology to provide effective protection free from harmful chemicals and foul odors. Skeeter Hawk is the only leader in insect defense brands that uses patent-pending dual band LED technology for its UV attractant products. Additionally, Skeeter Hawk’s proprietary repellent formula is the only wearable repellent made of all-natural essential oils that is not dominated by citronella, a combination which has proven to be more effective than citronella alone. Skeeter Hawk is owned by Alliance Sports Group, L.P., a U.S.-based company. Visit us at https://skh.acgbrands.com/en_US/

Does Height Over the Bore Matter?

Win the entire MDT chassis line-up!

There are two questions in precision shooting that have been debated for years; leading many to retreat in the Himalayan Mountains seeking guidance from the likes of Yogi Grand Master Akshar.

1. Is wind more critical at the shooting position or downrange?

2. Does height over the bore affect accuracy?

The folks at MDT tackle the later, using the world’s tallest scope base, in this excellent video.

World’s Tallest Scope Base – Does Height Over Bore Matter?


DOES HEIGHT OVER BORE MATTER? The distance or “height” of your scope over the bore of your rifle is an important factor in calculating your D.O.P.E. (Data On Previous Engagements aka, how much you need to dial your scope turret for elevation at distance), but, as long as you know the measurement, does it really matter how high or low it is? Traditionally, it was accepted that a shooter would want the scope height over bore as low as possible, this made it easier to calculate your D.O.P.E. for the moderate distances you might see hunting. However, with modern-day tools like Kestrel, or even a simple downloadable phone app to help us non-mathematicians calculate this, we wanted to explore the topic a bit more, and in true MDT fashion, take this test to the extreme.

PRIMARY ARMS 3x MICROPRISM WINS ‘RED DOT OF THE YEAR’ IN 2022 INDUSTRY CHOICE AWARDS

HOUSTON, TEXAS – Primary Arms Optics’ new SLx® 3x MicroPrism was just awarded ‘Red Dot of the Year’ in the 2022 Industry Choice awards.

The annual Industry Choice Awards bring together dozens of independent evaluators from all corners of the firearms industry, including competition shooters, Law Enforcement, military, gunsmiths, range owners, manufacturers, and other firearms product enthusiasts. Together, they provide an unbiased evaluation for a wide variety of categories, and in this year’s optics evaluation, Primary Arms Optics took the award for ‘Red Dot Optic of the Year’ with their SLx 3x MicroPrism Scope.

The 3x MicroPrism is part of Primary Arms Optics’ SLx line, which built their reputation for innovation, reliability, and value. All SLx optics undergo rigorous field-testing during development to best serve the user in any environment. Weighing just under 8oz, the SLx 3x MicroPrism is one of the shortest, lightest magnified optics on the market, comparable in size to many of the industry’s leading microdots.

Because this optic features an etched reticle, it’s fully compatible with astigmatism, and the NV-compatible illumination ensures full function in any ambient lighting. The ACSS® Raptor 5.56/.308 – Yard reticle also gives the user the ability to range and engage targets out to 600 yards with ease. Compared to the average red dot, the 3x MicroPrism offers enhance precision and accessibility to almost any user.

“The SLx 3x MicroPrism blends the best features of magnified optics and reflex sights, improving your effective range without adding much to the weight or profile of your rifle,” says Stephen Morgan, Primary Arms Optics’ Director of Product Marketing. “We’re thrilled to be part of this year’s Industry Choice Awards and thank them for recognizing the 3x MicroPrism as the 2022 Red Dot of the Year.”

This is the second year in a row for Primary Arms to take the coveted title of Red Dot of the Year. Last year, the Primary Arms SLx MD-25 ACSS® Red Dot Sight claimed the top spot with its unique 25mm aperture and bevy of premium features.

MYCRO Headlamp from NEBO Provides Handsfree Illumination

Fort Worth, TX (June 30, 2022) – Imagine it – crawling under a house on hands and knees to check the heating unit and ductwork before a big winter storm roars in. Cobwebs obscure the view in the dusty and dark crawlspace. The old-fashioned flashlight only lights up the area a few feet ahead.

Once beneath the middle of the house, the worst thing happens – the flashlight drops, rolls into a crevice, and there is nothing but darkness, dirt and a perilous seemingly situation.

U.S. LawShield® Welcomes Permitless Carry in Indiana

U.S. LAWSHIELD® WELCOMES PERMITLESS CARRY IN INDIANA

U.S. LawShield Indiana Permitless Carry GuideLegal Defense for Self Defense®

Houston, Texas – June 30, 2022 – U.S. LawShield®, industry leader in self-defense law and America’s foremost provider of educational resources on safe firearm ownership welcomes Indiana as the 24th state to enact permitless carry, otherwise known as constitutional carry. Effective July 1, 2022, Indiana House Bill 1296, “Indiana Permitless Carry,” repeals the law that requires a person to obtain a license to carry a handgun in the state.

According to U.S. LawShield CEO P.J. Hermosa, “Folks tend to think the new permitless carry legislation in Indiana is simple, but if they don’t understand its complexities, their actions could lead to trouble. We educate people on what is required to be legally armed and how to keep themselves and their families safe. Just because a license isn’t required doesn’t mean there aren’t restrictions, and it’s important to consider that ignorance of the law is not an excuse for breaking it.”

Hermosa continued, “The experienced U.S. LawShield Independent Program Attorneys who wrote the book on Indiana gun laws spell out exactly what you need to know to stay on the right side of the law in the Indiana Permitless Carry Guide. And, we encourage responsible gun owners to educate themselves on what the legislation means for them as residents of Indiana.”

U.S. LawShield Indiana Permitless Carry Guide

As the authoritative source of all things permitless carry, the U.S. LawShield Indiana Permitless Carry Guide answers questions including:

· What is permitless carry in Indiana?

· Why is a license to carry a handgun still important?

· Can you have a gun in your car without a concealed carry license in Indiana?

· Who can and can’t carry under Indiana permitless carry?

· What weapons are covered by Indiana permitless carry?

Successful 27th edition of EUROSATORY

Paris, 30 June 2022

Successful 27th edition of EUROSATORY
after a 4-year absence!

After a four-year absence due to the health crisis, the 2022 edition of the international land and airland defense and security exhibition was eagerly awaited by the entire international community of the sector.

In the particular context of conflicts at the gates of Europe, this edition is one of the most significant in the history of the exhibition:

1,743 companies and more than 100,000 professionals gathered in Paris from 13 to 17 June for this must-attend event, which brought together all the players in the global defense and security market.
250 delegations from 96 countries, high-level executives and decision-makers from the public and private sectors, and project leaders came to the event over the 5 days.
The success of this record-breaking edition lies in the “reunion” and meetings between exhibitors, partners and international visitors eager to discover the latest developments in the global defense and security capabilities. Busy stands, busy exhibitors and crowded aisles were the hallmarks of the five-day event.
“The exhibition was very qualitative, with stands designed and decorated for the occasion. For this comeback edition, exhibitors put a lot of energy into welcoming visitors and official delegations. Everyone was happy to be at Eurosatory 2022”, said Jérémy Vigna, Sales Director of the exhibition.
For the first time, the exhibition was inaugurated by the President of the French Republic, Emmanuel Macron. In the context of the war in Ukraine, the President of the Republic took advantage of the exhibition’s inauguration to recall the central role of the defense and security industry in the preservation of national and European sovereignty.
Visitors discovered the first French demonstrator of capabilities to respond to all types of humanitarian, industrial and/or environmental crises.
75 companies exhibited in the « HELPED – Humanitary Emergency Logistic Project and Eco Development » area, to present the whole spectrum of global capacities needed to support populations in case of major crisis and to restore the environment.
A global response designed specifically for the exhibition.
Foresight, the new post-crisis world order, experience sharing and the dissemination of professional practices suitable for each profession were at the heart of 110 international conferences held throughout the exhibition. More than 300 speakers from all over the world came to share their vision and reflect on the evolution of Defense and Security.
The Eurosatory Lab, a space dedicated to startups, attracted many visitors. As well as the pitching program, which allowed to discover many innovative startups during the different sessions on current themes: performance, maintenance, robotics, security and safety of territories, artificial intelligence…

In conclusion, this 2022 edition, which stands out as a record year in terms of attendance, was part of the momentum of three major global trends: the return of inter-state conflicts, global warming, and the digital revolution.

Charles Beaudouin, the exhibition’s CEO, concludes, “Held in the context of a new world order, Eurosatory reinforces its position as the world’s most important D&S event, setting trends in the management of all crises, from war to environmental disasters”.

We look forward to seeing you from 17 to 21 June 2024 at the forthcoming Eurosatory.

Key figures:

  • 1,743 exhibitors from 62 countries with 62% of international
  • 39 national pavilions
  • 62,000 professional visitors from 150 countries (↑ + 8.7% vs. 2018)

AUSTIN TXAGirlandAGun.org – Julianna Crowder hosted the first A Girl & A Gun (AG & AG) Girls Night Out on February 28, 2011.

A CANDID DISCUSSION ABOUT ABORTION AND THE SEX STRIKE MOVEMENT

It’s been a while since I’ve had a shoot the shit and I’d like to tackle some of the overlooked topics stemming from abortion discussions. For starters I want to introduce new readers to what a shoot the shit is all about.

Readers, a shoot the shit is a social event during which any topic can be discussed. The participants don’t have to have any knowledge about the subject, they’re free to make any unsupported comment, use uncensored profanity, insult anyone they wish or change the subject at any point during the shoot the shit. It’s been proven that the efficacy of a good shoot the shit is superior to paying a jackass who majored in psychology so they could understand themselves $150+ per hour to do what you can do at a shoot the shit. I’ll illustrate that point later in my article.

The hottest argument facing this nation today is abortion. The U.S. Supreme Court ruled that abortion is not enshrined in the Constitution saying that it’s a matter for the states to decide and or regulate. Well, as expected, the defecation hit the ventilation with groups marching, rioting and some threatening a sex strike. The abortion debate is both emotional and complex; at one extreme is the idea that abortions should be completely unrestricted at the other is that abortions are murder. I’ll set all of the ideology aside and talk about pregnancy for a bit.

Fertilization Of Human Egg Cell By Spermatozoan, 3D Illustration Stock  Photo, Picture And Royalty Free Image. Image 94032395.

blastula | biology | Britannica

sperm cell binds to female egg cell Blastula

When humans engage in unprotected sex, the male sperm cell binds to the female egg cell, at this point fertilization occurs. Shortly thereafter, within 5 to 7 days after fertilization succeeds blastulation occurs; it is at this point of development that biology classifies the organism as meeting the definition of life: responsiveness to the environment, growth and change, ability to reproduce, have a metabolism and breathe, maintain homeostasis, being made of cells and passing traits onto offspring. Based on the biological definition of life, the human blastula is a living organism. This has given rise to post-coital contraceptives like the following brands: Next Choice One Dose, My Way, Take Action, After Pill, EContra Ez, Aftera, ella, Plan B One-Step. These contraceptives are most effective when used on the third day after unprotected sex, but they’re not intended to replace a systematic contraception regimen.

The abortion argument will go on “ad infinitum” driving protests like the sex strike. The movement proposes to derail the anti-abortion argument by denying sex partners coital relations; however, the economics principle of substitution comes in to play and we’ll see a rise in fellatio, cunnilingus and yes buggery.

By introducing a sex strike, protestors will drive oral sex frequency rates significantly higher.

The 1994 study by Laumann et al. surveyed 3,432 Americans aged 18 to 59. According to a Kinsey summary, the survey found that “90% of men and 86% of women have had sex in the past year,” whereas “27% of men and 19% of women have had oral sex in the past year.”

If statistically significant, one can expect the frequency of oral sex by men and women will dramatically increase. That change alone presents some interesting problems, for example;

“1. Oral sex is linked to throat cancer.

Cancer? Yes, you can get throat cancer from oral sex, says American Cancer Society Chief Medical Officer Otis Brawley, MD.

It’s not oral sex, per se, that causes cancer, but the human papillomavirus (HPV), which can be passed from person to person during sex, including oral sex.

Researchers have found that some cancers of the oropharynx (the middle of the throat) and tonsils are probably caused by a certain type of human papillomavirus (HPV). HPV is common, but it doesn’t always cause cancer. If you aren’t exposed to HPV during oral sex, you’re not at risk for cancer…”

There may also be a psychological impact for example;

“2. Oral sex enhances some adult relationships, strains others.

Among adults, oral sex causes stress for some couples and enhances intimacy for others, says sex therapist Louanne Cole Weston, PhD, of Fair Oaks, Calif. She says stress about oral sex often has to do with one partner’s concerns about hygiene.

“One person will not want to receive it because he or she worries about the partner’s reaction,” Weston says.

Some people may also be anxious about their performance — doing it well enough to please a partner — or about responding appropriately to receiving it. “Some people can’t just let go and receive,” Weston says…”

In evaluating whether to substitute coital sex with oral sex , olfactory evaluation of the recipient plays an important role in reaching the decision.

Buggery or Anal Sex

Once considered taboo, is far more prevalent than previously thought; for example, the National Library of Medicine reports;

“Heterosexual anal intercourse (HAI) is not an uncommon behavior with 36% of women and 44% of men 25–44 years old in the United States reporting ever having HAI in their lifetime…”

“…Based on a meta-analysis, acquisition of HIV is 18-times as likely to occur during receptive HAI as during receptive vaginal intercourse among heterosexuals…”

Other risks stem from engaging in HAI and failing to ensure an empty bowel.

As you can see a sex strike does not result in a loss of sexual gratification and in some cases may even be more gratifying without risking an involuntary pregnancy.

Have a great weekend and a safe 4th of July, but remember that if your partner is part of the sex strike movement you have other options.

EOTECH Awarded SBIR Phase II Contract


EOTech logo" Photographic Print by UnPEngineer | Redbubble

Plymouth, MI (June 2022) – EOTECH, inventor and original manufacturer of Holographic technology for use on military, LE, hunting, and consumer firearms, has been awarded a follow up SBIR (Small Business Innovation Research) contract for the development of a dual-color holographic head-up display for increased situational awareness and targeting in military aircraft.

This Phase II contract funds further development to produce a system that allows more information to be acquired faster without obscuring the pilot field of view, which leads to efficient decisions and reduced cognitive load on the end-user. Commercially, the developed technology may adapt to existing firearm weapon sights, and could provide customers with new functionality, such as overlaying waypoints or caliber data onto their field of view.

“We are extremely proud to have received this Phase II contract and are excited to continue developing this technology into a solution that enhances the performance of our pilots,” said Dennis Finnegan, President of EOTECH GOV. “EOTECH has been at the forefront of holography, dating back to the 1950’s, and has dedicated its existence to providing tools and technology that improve the performance and increase the safety of our warfighters.”

The SBIR program is intended to support scientific excellence and technological innovation that is moving from the lab to the market. Investing federal research and development funds into startups and small businesses yield positive results. It fosters a strong national economy and stimulates the creation of novel products, services, and solutions in the private sector; strengthens the role of small business in meeting federal research and development needs; increases the commercial application of federally supported research results; and develops and increases the US workforce, especially by fostering and encouraging participation by socially and economically disadvantaged and women-owned small businesses.

Independence is a purpose and a call to those who stand by and stand up for the principles this country was founded on. For those who know the burden of carrying their own cross, we are forever grateful. We too have carried the flag. We understand that one day we may be draped in it should we fall for what we love. The American flag sits on the backs of our warfighters as a reminder that when the ultimate sacrifice is made, it ushers you home.

Winchester Announces the Signing of ISSF Para Trap Shooter Sophia Bultema.

 

Para Trap Shooter Sophia Bultema Joins Team Winchester

EAST ALTON, IL (June 29, 2022) — Winchester announces the signing of ISSF para trap shooter Sophia Bultema. The 18-year-old sport shooter hails from Colorado Springs, Colorado, and will be shooting the world-famous AA target loads at the upcoming National Championships at Hillsdale College in Hillsdale, Michigan. She will also represent the U.S. and Team Winchester at the World Championships in Al Ain, United Arab Emirates.
Sophia recently competed at the World Cup France, where she set the junior world record in qualification and the final, becoming the first woman in para trap history to make a World Cup final.
“Sophia has an inspirational story of overcoming adversity while maintaining an excellent outlook and striving to do her very best,” said Matt Campbell, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Winchester Ammunition.  “She is an exceptional sport shooter and we’re extremely proud to have her as a member of Team Winchester and ambassador of the shooting sports.”
After living the first six years in an orphanage in China because of her limb difference, Sophia was adopted by her parents and brought home to Colorado Springs. Sophia has grown up in a shooting sports family, receiving a toy shotgun during her first Christmas in the states.
Sophia began competing with her high school team through the Scholastic Clay Target Program (SCTP) because shooting was a sport where people can still compete with their peers despite physical impairments. Soon after starting with the high school team, Sophia was introduced to para trap, where she has earned the right to represent the United States in this emerging sport that is on track to be added to the Paralympic Games.

About Para Trap

Open to athletes who have a physical impairment, the discipline of para trap shooting is based on the Olympic trap discipline, differing in only some equipment and qualification requirements. Athletes use a shotgun to hit “clays,” which are propelled into the air from machines on the ground and strive to make as many “hits” (when a clay is broken) as possible. During the competition, athletes shoot from five central positions on the range and shoot at a total of 125 clays in the qualification round.

About Winchester Ammunition

Winchester is the largest small caliber ammunition enterprise in the world and the leader in delivering innovative ammunition products to hunters, sport shooters, law enforcement and the U.S. Warfighter. The 156-year-old Winchester brand is built on integrity, hard work and a deep focus on its loyal customers.

CZ Offers Match-Grade Chamber in 457 Varmint Precision Chassis MTR

The enhanced accuracy of this .22 LR chassis gun makes it an affordable, ready- to-shoot competition rifle

CZ Offers Match-Grade Chamber in 457 Varmint Precision Chassis MTR

Kansas City, KS (June 27, 2022) – On the heels of CZ’s introduction of the 457 Varmint Precision Trainer MTR comes the 457 Varmint Precision Chassis MTR in 22 LR. This precision rimfire is packed with features that make it a serious competition gun, but with a price tag nowhere near that of a custom rimfire rifle.

While CZ is known for their tight chamber tolerances that aid in making their rifles some of the most accurate production rimfires available, they first debuted an even tighter ‘Match’ chamber in the popular 457 Varmint MTR. This wood-stocked plinker became a favorite among shooters wanting even more accuracy than the standard 457 delivers.

The MTR variants of the VPT and VPC allow rimfire competition shooters to buy an affordable, match-chambered rifle that’s ready to win competitions right out of the box, eliminating the perceived need to upgrade any major components, putting both 457 variants a step above the competition.

The 457 VPC MTR comes with CZ’s famous cold hammer-forged and lapped barrel, 16 inches in length and with 1/2×28 threads for mounting a suppressor or muzzle device. It rides in an incredibly stable aluminum chassis system that is equipped with an adjustable Luth-AR stock, and the rifle features a fully adjustable trigger, a 5-round detachable box magazine and integrated 11mm dovetails for scope installation, coming in at an MSRP of $1,225.

Like CZ’s line of factory-tuned premium pistols, the 457 VPC MTR features orange accents to show that it is a special version of an already premium rifle. The VPC has an orange trigger guard, making it easily recognized on the gun rack and at the shooting range.

CZ-USA 457 Varmint Precision Chassis MTR Specs:

  • · SKU: 02361
  • · Chambering: 22 LR
  • · Action: Bolt
  • · Barrel: Cold Hammer Forged, Factory-Lapped, Match Chamber
  • · Barrel Length: 16 in.
  • · Twist Rate: 1:16
  • · Magazine Type: Detachable
  • · Magazine Capacity: 5 Rounds (Single shot, 10-round and 25-round magazines available)
  • · Stock: Luth-AR Adjustable
  • · Overall Length: 34 in.
  • · Weight: 7 lbs.
  • · Trigger: Adjustable
  • · Sights: No Sights; Integrated 11MM Dovetail for Optic
  • · Safety: Two-Position, Push to Fire
  • · Misc.: Muzzle Threaded 1/2×28 for Suppressor
  • · MSRP: $1,225.00

Since 1997, CZ-USA has given American shooters and hunters the best firearms the Czech Republic has to offer. In 2019, we completed yet another milestone by producing CZ firearms here in the United States at CZ-USA’s Kansas City, Kansas, facility. With our ever-increasing production capabilities stateside, CZ-USA will continue to improve, innovate, and add to the CZ-USA line-up of high-quality, affordable handguns, rifles, shotguns, and suppressors, plus custom-quality handguns from Dan Wesson.

ODU Robotic Autonomous Systems (RAS)

Robotic Autonomous Systems (RAS)

Armed forces around the world are beginning to integrate robotic and autonomous military systems and electric vehicles into their operations. Once a vision of the future, these technologies have now become reality in international conflicts and deployments. Armies and other emergency forces will increasingly use RAS, for example, for disaster control and explosive ordnance disposal. Unmanned, computer-controlled vehicles can provide situational awareness or assistance in remote regions. Already, RAS are being deployed for border surveillance and to provide support in hostile environments, particularly in extreme climatic conditions or in response to heightened military threats. A wide range of sensors and systems are used to survey and reconnoiter entire areas, thus facilitating the mission. These systems can help emergency responders perform tasks more safely and efficiently. Typical application areas include cargo mules for transporting supplies, medical evacuations, and remote-controlled combat systems. These unmanned ground vehicles must be able to detect obstacles and people so that hazards can be eliminated.

Armies must rely on innovations and cutting-edge technologies of this kind to eliminate the need for “boots on the ground”. However, this also entails a risk that should not be underestimated. The lack of personnel in the field means that certain processes must be redesigned. In the event of a system failure, service or maintenance personnel may be unable to enter the area of operations directly due to a hazardous situation. Therefore, the interfaces to the different situational awareness systems or drive technologies must be designed in a way that guarantees maximum reliability – even under the most adverse environmental conditions and when subjected to extreme vibrations. In areas where a decision must be made by humans, it must be possible to flexibly switch over to a remote drive-by-wire or follow-me function, depending on the system. The latter is only possible by coupling 360° all-round-vision cameras and infrared and laser technology to the integrated soldier systems.

Interfaces must therefore be developed to match the respective applications and connect the deployed systems in a fail-safe manner. Highly robust, reliable, and application-specific connector systems and cable assemblies are required to transmit mission-critical data.

Robust under high loads and extreme temperatures, resistant to dust, water and vibrations – this is what ODU connector systems stand for. Optimized for demanding applications and transmission reliability even under the most technically challenging environmental conditions – as successfully demonstrated in projects such as the Colossus firefighting robot and the Mars rover. We were able to meet the extremely demanding requirements with regard to high-speed data technology and high-frequency transmissions thanks to our expertise in the field of Dismounted Soldier Systems (DSS) as well as our in-depth understanding of the operational and environmental conditions to which both user and device are exposed.

ODU connectors for military, security, and communication applications provide a high level of signal integrity thanks to 360° shielding. Different transfer protocols (USB/HDMI/Displayport) ensure high-speed data transmissions that are also protected against access by third parties and standard interfaces. Pin-and-groove coding and color coding provide extra support in extreme situations and prevent incorrect mating. Even in the smallest installation space, different transmission variants can be individually configured. The rugged ODU housings are waterproof up to IP6K9K, non-reflective, and available with various connection types and locking mechanisms.

ODU Group: global representation with perfect connections

The ODU Group is one of the world’s leading suppliers of connector systems, employing 2,500 people around the world. In addition to its company headquarters in Muehldorf a. Inn (Germany), ODU also has an international distribution network and production sites in Sibiu/Romania, Shanghai/China, and Tijuana/Mexico. ODU combines all relevant areas of expertise and key technologies including design and development, machine tooling and special machine construction, injection, stamping, turning, surface technology, assembly and cable assembly. The ODU Group sells its products globally through its sales offices in China, Denmark, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Italy, Japan, Korea, Romania, Sweden, UK and the US, as well as through numerous international sales partners. ODU connectors ensure a reliable transmission of power, signals, data and media for a variety of demanding applications including medical technology, military and security, automotive, industrial electronics, and test and measurement.

Henry Repeating Arms Kicks Off Million Dollar Pledge with Donation to Tunnel to Towers Foundation

Tunnel to Towers Foundation

Henry CEO & Founder Anthony Imperato Presents $50,000 Donation

Staten Island, N.Y. – June 28, 2022 – In celebration of Henry Repeating Arms’ 25th anniversary, CEO and Founder Anthony Imperato recently presented a $50,000 check to Tunnel to Towers Foundation Chairman and CEO Frank Siller; the first donation of a $1,000,000 Silver Anniversary pledge to various charities through the company’s Guns For Great Causes program.

The Tunnel to Towers Foundation was founded in December 2001 by the surviving siblings of Stephen Siller, a member of the New York City Fire Department whose heroic actions on September 11, 2001, resonate throughout the city and the country to this day. On his way to a golf outing with his brothers after working his shift with Brooklyn’s Squad 1, the World Trade Center’s North Tower was attacked, and Stephen answered his call of duty. After turning around to grab his gear and realizing he could not drive through the closed Brooklyn Battery Tunnel, Stephen strapped his equipment to his back, ran through the tunnel on foot, and ultimately laid down his life to save others. In honor of Stephen’s sacrifice, Tunnel to Towers pursues a mission of supporting the country’s first responders, military veterans, and their families with mortgage-free homes, having supplied over 450 to date.

Henry Repeating Arms, one of the country’s leading firearms manufacturers, will offer 1,000 unique Henry Golden Boy Silver Anniversary edition rifles for sale in the coming weeks. Sold exclusively online, 100% of the proceeds will benefit charities supported by the company’s Guns For Great Causes program – including sick children’s hospitals, military veterans, law enforcement and 1st responder organizations, wildlife conservation, hunting and shooting sports education and pro-Second Amendment endeavors. To be notified when this limited-edition rifle becomes available, visit henryusa.com and sign up for the email newsletter.

With a 4-Star Exceptional rating from Charity Navigator, donors can confidently give directly to the Tunnel to Towers Foundation. Visit t2t.org to make a one-time donation or extend the generosity with a monthly $11 contribution.
