VERMONT: ASA Backed Suppressor Hunting Bill Heading To Governor!

Posted on Friday, 13 May, 2022 by twobirdsflyingpub

Vermont Suppressor Hunting Legislation…

MONTPELIER, VERMONT – On May 11th, the Vermont State Senate passed an amended version of S. 281 – legislation that includes a provision to make The Green Mountain State the 41st state to allow the use of suppressors while hunting. The suppressor hunting language, which was championed by Representatives Pat Brennan (R-Chittenden-9-2) and George Till (D-Chittenden-3), was added to S. 281 during the floor debate in the House of Representatives and subsequently passed on May 10th. The bill now heads to Governor Phil Scott (R-VT) for his signature. Once enacted, the new law will take effect on July 1st.

“IT IS MY PLEASURE TO ANNOUNCE THAT WITH TODAY’S PASSAGE OF S. 281, THE LEGISLATURE HAS TAKEN A TREMENDOUS STEP FORWARD TOWARDS EXPANDING THE RIGHT OF HUNTERS TO USE SUPPRESSORS IN THE FIELD.”

– Rep. Brennan, Co-Chair of the Vermont Legislative Sportsmen’s Caucus.

The American Suppressor Association has been fighting for suppressor rights in Vermont for a decade. Over the years we have helped draft legislation, provided written and verbal testimony, and hosted multiple live-fire suppressor demonstrations for legislators, law enforcement officers, and the Vermont Fish and Wildlife Department. In 2015, legislation introduced by Rep. Brennan legalized the ownership of suppressors in the state, but not their use in the field. The passage of S. 281 brings us one step closer to full suppressor legalization nationwide.

Big Horn Armory Relocates to Larger Manufacturing Facility in Cody, Wyoming

Posted on Thursday, 12 May, 2022 by twobirdsflyingpub

The new facility offers the power and space for BHA to operate additional machinery, as well as increase inventory storage space.

Big Horn Armory Relocates to Larger Manufacturing Facility in Cody, Wyoming

The new facility offers the power and space for BHA to operate additional machinery, as well as increase inventory storage space.

Cody, Wyo. (May 2022) – Big Horn Armory (BHA), makers of big-bore firearms, has completed the relocation of its offices and manufacturing facilities to 319 N. Blackburn St., Cody, Wyoming, 82414. The new facility is over five times the size of the previous location, providing more manufacturing space to operate additional machines and better facilities for building BHA’s firearms. It also provides increased space for maintaining a larger inventory. These factors combine to make BHA’s operations run much more smoothly and efficiently than at the old facility and will aid in improving lead times in the next few months.

“The move to our new, larger facility offers expansion space for additional equipment and employees,” commented Greg Buchel, Owner of Big Horn Armory. “It will allow us to increase our manufacturing capabilities many times over what we could formerly accomplish. We look forward to supporting our local economy in Cody, Wyoming by creating many good, stable jobs within our company.”

BHA has increased its workforce in the manufacturing department by 20 percent since October 2021 and intends to double its staff by year-end. Nine new machines are anticipated to be on the manufacturing floor by the end of May 2022. All of the new equipment has CNC capacity with a mix of mills and lathes and barrel-making equipment, which will help to lessen the dependency upon outside vendors. BHA has consistently been adding vendors over the past year and intends to add more. With a larger pool of sourcing suppliers, supply chain issues will be minimized and will help to reduce lead times on customer orders.

“We believe in building American-made, heirloom-quality firearms with attention to detail offered in unique, big-bore calibers and as such have invested in our manufacturing capabilities to match up with our beliefs,” Buchel stated. “We appreciate our customers’ patience during this relocation process. As we finish settling in to the new facility, we continue to fulfill our orders and implement improvements to meet our customers’ needs. We anticipate reducing our lead times by half or better once we are 100 percent up and running.”

Dealers, email bworthen@bighornarmory.com for pricing and programs.

About Big Horn Armory:

Big Horn Armory was founded in 2008 with the expressed intention of designing a Browning-type lever-action gun chambered in 500 Smith & Wesson Magnum. The Big Horn Armory Model 89, made in America, closely follows the work of John Browning with refinements courtesy of modern metallurgy and machining capabilities. The first rifles began shipping in September of 2012 and since then, BHA has added to their big bore lineup with a Model 90 Carbine in 460 S&W, the Model 90A in 454 Casull, the Model 90B in .45 Colt, the Model 89A in 500 Linebaugh and the Model 89B in .475 Linebaugh. In 2017, Big Horn Armory took a departure from its lever-action series and developed the AR500 Auto Max, the most powerful short-range, semi-auto based on an AR .308 platform.

SnapSafe® In-Wall Safes – Easy to Hide and Easy to Access

Posted on Wednesday, 11 May, 2022 by twobirdsflyingpub

SnapSafe® In-Wall Safes – Easy to Hide and Easy to Access

Grand Island, NE (May 10, 2022) – SnapSafe® In-Wall Safes install securely between wall studs safeguarding valuables out-of-sight. In-Wall Safes are available in two sizes – a 22-inch and a 44-inch-tall version – depending on individual storage needs. SnapSafe makes peace of mind made easy with its new In-Wall Safes.

The In-Wall Safe mounts flush against the wall allowing concealment behind pictures, furniture or other household objects without detection. If discovered, its 16-gauge steel body and extra-thick 8-gauge door thwart unauthorized access. An innovative latch mechanism maximizes usable interior space while hidden hinges impede prying and cutting attacks on the container. Thanks to its innovative design, it fits perfectly between wall studs that use the industry-standard 16-inch on-center spacing; the pre-drilled safe then lags tight to the framing using the included bolts. SnapSafe In-Wall Safes are easy to install in minutes, and the design allows orienting the door for either a left- or right-hand opening.

A battery-powered electronic keypad provides quick entry to the In-Wall Safe. After entering the access code, its spring-assist door opens and reveals the safe’s contents. The lock has audio and LED warnings when the battery levels are running low. And just in case, SnapSafe includes a barrel key backup.

Removable storage shelves customize the interior layout, accommodating different-sized objects. On the floor, a padded mat prevents damage to delicate items. Magnetic jewelry and key hooks organize smaller pieces. Likewise, a magnetic document holder stows essential papers on the door in a flat and accessible location.

The SnapSafe In-Wall Safe is an affordable, concealable security container that fits perfectly into any home.

Apex Releases Competition Trigger Kit for Ruger Mk IV Pistol

Posted on Wednesday, 11 May, 2022 by twobirdsflyingpub

Apex Releases Competition Trigger Kit for Ruger Mk IV Pistols

PEORIA, Ariz. – Apex is pleased to announce the release of its Competition Trigger Kit for the Mk IV and Mk IV 22/45 model pistols from Ruger. Available with either a black or red anodized flat-faced trigger, that is adjustable for over-travel, the new kit is a significant performance upgrade for one of the most popular .22LR handguns on the market.
Designed, tested and manufactured by Apex to provide an improved, more responsive trigger pull in the Ruger Mk IV pistols, the Competition Trigger Kit replaces the factory trigger, hammer and sear with Apex components. When installed the kit lightens the trigger pull weight to approximately 3.0 lbs., reduces over-travel by approximately 80% and overall trigger travel by 25%, resulting in a lighter, crisper trigger break that is ideal for both the competition and recreational shooter.
Included in each kit is a safety plate that maintains factory safety values, even when put through Apex’s extensive drop-testing process which is conducted from six feet onto concrete. Also in each kit is a magazine safety delete, which when installed, allows the pistol to fire without the magazine inserted. Installing this component is optional, but Apex recommends it be used for competition purposes only.
Retailers and wholesale distributors that have not yet ordered and wish to stock the Competition Trigger Kit for the Ruger Mk IV model pistols can contact Apex at dealer@apextactical.com or (623) 322-0200 for pricing and quantity availability.

RAFAEL Showcasing C-GEM at AOC 2022 After Successful Live Fire Test of Naval System on Israeli Navy Saar 6 Corvette

Posted on Wednesday, 11 May, 2022 by twobirdsflyingpub

May 10, 2022: Earlier this year, Rafael Advanced Defense Systems alongside the Israeli Navy and Ministry of Defense Directorate of Defense Research and Development (DDR&D) successfully completed a series of tests on Rafael’s C-GEM naval system.

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

RAFAEL is participating in the AOC 2022 exhibition in Montpellier where they will be showcasing the C-GEM Decoy, along with the following systems:

SEWS-DV: an integrated EW suite intended for operation in a dense electromagnetic environment. SEWS-DV includes highly sensitive digital receivers and high power AESA jammers, assuring spectrum dominance and survivability in the most hostile scenarios.

SKY-SHIELD: an electronic attack pod, intended for escort jamming and suppression of enemy air defenses (SEAD) missions. SKY-SHIELD provides air superiority and allows penetration of the most advanced integrated air defense systems by simultaneously deceiving and jamming multiple enemy radars.

X-GUARD: a cutting edge supersonic towed-decoy designed for defeating advanced tracking radars. Towed behind the fighter aircraft, X-GUARD is deployable and retractable mid-flight.

DRONE-DOME Counter-UAS system: an end-to-end solution that secures airspace against hostile drones. DRONE-DOME is capable of identifying unknown targets, generating alerts and operating without causing interference to non-target airborne assets by utilizing smart jammer bandwidth allocations.

For additional information and to coordinate interviews please contact

EUROSATORY 2022: SIGNIFICANT PRESENCE OF THE AIRLAND SECTOR AT THE EXHIBITION

Posted on Wednesday, 11 May, 2022 by twobirdsflyingpub

10 May 2022, Paris

EUROSATORY 2022: SIGNIFICANT PRESENCE OF THE AIRLAND SECTOR AT THE EXHIBITION

The world’s leading land and airland defense and security exhibition will be held from 13 to 17 June at the Parc des expositions of Paris-Nord Villepinte. It offers an essential business platform for all the sector’s players. This year, Eurosatory will focus on the airland sector with more than 250 exhibitors already registered. If you are interested in aeronautics, Eurosatory 2022 is an event not to be missed!

Given the current geopolitical situation, the airland sector is more relevant than ever. Air defense, the use of helicopters and drones, etc. are major concerns for European governments, but also for other regions. This is reflected by the fact that more than 17% of the registered exhibitors are active in the airland sector.

Four helicopters will be exhibited at Eurosatory: three American helicopters, the Blackhawk, the Apache and for the first time the Chinook and Airbus’ H145M… a unique opportunity to see the equipment in action.

At Eurosatory, more than a hundred registered companies offer drones and drone systems: among these, Aeronautics (Israel), AEROVIRONMENT (USA), Elistair (France), HONGKONG HIMARK ELECTRON MODEL, SKYBORNE TECHNOLOGIES (Australia).

More than 70 registered companies present products and services in this field, including AP-FLYER SP. Z O.O. (Poland), ApolloShield (Israel), DIGITAL RESEARCH AND CONSULTING CO.,LTD (Thailand)…

In addition to the products and services offer, Eurosatory offers many conferences sessions on the following themes: “HELICOPTERS / AEROCOMBAT” and “DRONES / ANTI-DRONES FIGHTING” to further develop the aeronautical segment. The programme includes*:

U.S. LawShield® Asks "Does That State Recognize Your Permit?"

Posted on Tuesday, 10 May, 2022 by twobirdsflyingpub

U.S. LAWSHIELD® ASKS “DOES THAT STATE RECOGNIZE YOUR PERMIT?”

Plan for Your Guns Before You Land On the Wrong Side of the Law

Houston, Texas–May 9, 2022–U.S. LawShield®, industry leader and America’s largest provider of Legal Defense for Self Defense® coverage, presents the National Travel Guide for Gun Owners and state-specific Travel Guides for Gun Owners. The guides feature practical information for people traveling through nearly every state in the U.S.

According to Kirk Evans, President of U.S. LawShield, “Don’t wait until after the fact to plan for your guns when preparing for your trip. Because there are so many details for people to understand before they leave home, we developed state-specific guides to help folks stay on the right side of the law.”

As responsible firearms owners, people have questions about taking their guns with them when traveling. “Unfortunately, not every state has a common-sense attitude when it comes to gun laws, and you want to make sure that a criminal conviction isn’t one of the souvenirs you bring home,” stated Evans. “Take the time to learn the laws before hitting the road because they are not the same everywhere.”

Check out the U.S. LawShield YouTube video “Get Packin’: Traveling with Guns,” presented by Independent Program Attorneys Richard Hayes and Emily Taylor. Discussion includes essential information needed to stay safe and responsible while traveling with firearms.

Travel Guide for Gun Owners topics include:

· Permits/licenses recognized by specific states
· State laws you should know, including vehicle carry, duty to notify law enforcement, and open and concealed carry laws
· Where you can legally carry your gun
· Federal laws you should know
· Carrying in National Parks
· Transfer of firearms
· Traveling from state to state and the Safe Passage provision
· Flying with a firearm, including TSA requirement warnings and how to pack ammunition
· Driving with a firearm

Know the Laws of Every State You Travel Through

“There is no standardization of gun laws within the 50 individual states, so even if a state recognizes your handgun license or permit, they may have additional restrictions on certain types of firearms, magazines, or ammunition,” said Evans. “In some states, it’s illegal for a non-resident to possess a firearm in the passenger compartment of their vehicle. And, because you are subject to a state’s laws when you are in that state, if you break their laws, you could be committing a crime—whether you think you intentionally broke the law or not,” he added.

State-Specific Travel

State-specific travel guides and the National Travel Guide for Gun Owners are accessible to everyone on the U.S. LawShield website to help folks prepare for upcoming travel at resources.uslawshield.com/travel-guide.

“Remember, not knowing the law is not a valid defense,” stated Evans. “Use our Travel Guide for Gun Owners for whatever state you’re traveling through, and learn which states honor your carry license or permit before you go.”

U.S. LawShield members can take the guesswork out of traveling with a firearm by contacting their Independent Program Attorney at the toll-free number on their membership card.

About U.S. LawShield

Since 2009, the mission of U.S. LawShield remains unchanged. We believe in Preserving Freedom for Good® by educating our 700,000+ members and 6,000+ industry 2A Partners in self-defense law; empowering them to handle critical, life-threatening situations with confidence; protecting them from potential injustices in the legal system after acts of self-defense; and challenging the status quo regarding the affordability of legal defense. Our higher purpose is to create a united community of responsible individuals who believe in liberty and the inalienable right of self-defense.

Brownells To Give Away SIG MCX-Spear & Training Package

Posted on Tuesday, 10 May, 2022 by twobirdsflyingpub

Brownells To Give Away SIG MCX-Spear & Training Package

GRINNELL, Iowa (May 9, 2022) -– Brownells customers will get a rare chance to win a SIG MCX-Spear chambered in .277 Fury, along with a training class hosted at the SIG SAUER Academy, airfare to the class and lodging, and an SLX suppressor – a prize package valued at $9,999.

The contest starts Monday, May 9, and contestants can sign up through May 15 at the Brownells SIG MCX-Spear & Training Sweepstakes page.

The MCX-Spear is the civilian version of the SIG rifle recently chosen by the US Army as the new Next Generation Squad Weapons System to replace the M4 Carbine.

“Right now, civilian variants of the MCX-Spear are very limited in number and almost impossible to find,” said Brownells VP of Marketing Ryan Repp. “This giveaway is a great chance for somebody to win one, and we’re very happy we can partner with a great company like SIG SAUER to offer this fantastic prize.”

The MCX-Spear is an SBR with a 13-inch barrel and comes with an SLX suppressor –optimized for both the Spear rifle and its special ammunition. Both the rifle and suppressor are subject to Federal paperwork and rules under the ATF, and Brownells will cover the $400 for the two required tax stamps.

The .277 Fury cartridge is the same length as the .308 Winchester and has a unique hybrid three-piece cartridge case allowing for increased pressures that drive bullets at high velocities.

To learn more, visit the Brownells SIG MCX-Spear & Training Sweepstakes page.

Galco’s Concealable 2.0 Holster for Compact Glocks!

Posted on Tuesday, 10 May, 2022 by twobirdsflyingpub

Galco’s Concealable 2.0 Holster for Compact Glocks!

Phoenix, April 2022

Now available for compact Glocks with or without red dot sights, Galco’s Concealable™ 2.0 is a thoroughly modern version of the strongside belt holster!

Building on over four decades of success with the original Concealable, the 2.0 version is updated for 21st century gun carriers. Cut low at the front, the new design accommodates most popular carry-style red dot optics. The raised sweat guard protects the wearer’s body from the pistol, and the pistol from the body’s natural perspiration. A mild butt-forward cant offers an easy draw from behind the dominant-side hip while also enhancing concealment with larger defensive pistols.

The Concealable 2.0’s unique two-piece construction is contoured on the body side to the natural curve of the hip, keeping all the molding on the front of the holster, allowing for significantly more comfortable carry and a narrower profile than an ordinary pancake type holster. (For an expanded discussion on forward molding versus the traditional pancake design, please see our FAQ.)

The Concealable 2.0 features a deeply hand-molded exterior for excellent retention properties and superior appearance, firing grip accessibility for speed, and double-stitched seams for long-lasting durability.

Also available for 1911s, M&Ps and SIGs with or without red dot sights, it’s constructed of premium steerhide in black or tan, and made to fit belts up to 1 1/2″.

APEX Ammunition Congratulates Rob Keck on Kansas Governor’s Turkey Hunt Win

APEX Ammunition Congratulates Rob Keck on Kansas Governor’s Turkey Hunt Win

Columbus, Miss. (May 6, 2022) – APEX Ammunition is pleased to congratulate Rob Keck on winning the Top Gun award at this year’s Kansas Governor’s One-Shot Turkey Hunt and placing second in the Alabama Governor’s One-Shot Turkey Hunt. Keck, who served as CEO of the National Wild Turkey Federation for 27 years, bagged both birds with a TriStar Viper G2 .410 shotgun and APEX Ammunition’s Turkey Ninja TSS load.

“The Ninja TSS 9.5 shot in .410 performs extremely well in my Tristar Viper topped with a Carlson TSS Turkey choke,” said Keck. “The consistent, even and dense patterning on paper has given me the confidence on quick, clean kills of ranges out to 50 yards. The Ninja 9.5s in .410 has completely changed the game for me in the most positive ways and were critical in anchoring both the big birds in Alabama and Kansas.”

“Winning a Governor’s turkey hunt is impressive but finishing in first and second place in two states in the same year is absolutely remarkable,” said Jason Lonsberry, CEO, APEX Ammunition. “Our congratulations to Rob on his great shooting, and our thanks to him for all he has done over the years on the conservation front to help grow the wild turkey population across North America.”

Keck recently retired after 12 years as Director of Conservation for Bass Pro Shops. He has been a US Open and World Turkey Calling Champion and was the first person to take a wild turkey in every state that has a turkey season.

About APEX Ammunition

What started in 2017 with a few handmade shells for a hunting trip with buddies has become an obsession to provide wingshooters with the absolute best performing ammunition possible. Founded by U.S. Veterans and hunting enthusiasts in the great state of Mississippi, APEX Ammunition pioneered the commercial application of ultra-high-density Tungsten Super Shot to create the hardest hitting, most accurate shot loads in the business. The driving principle behind the company’s continued quest for innovation and better performance is its commitment to delivering a hunting experience like no other.

Shooting Sports News: KC Eusebio Earns Ninth World Championship Title

Howard Leight Pro Wins Open Division and Overall Handgun Titles at 2022 Steel Challenge World Speed Shooting Championship

CANTON, MA (May 6, 2022) – Fresh from his recent Open Division win and High Overall finish at the 2022 USPSA Area Championship, shooting phenom, KC Eusebio, has earned an unprecedented ninth World Speed Shooting Championship title. Eusebio posted an aggregate time of 10.78 seconds in his Open Division win, while also earning the Overall Handgun title.

The remarkable accomplishment took place at Alabama’s Talladega Marksmanship Park, April 27 – May 1 at the 2022 Steel Challenge World Speed Shooting Championship presented by the Practical Shooting Association. See the complete results here.

“It feels incredible to be the first to win nine World Speed Shooting titles,” Eusebio says. “Once again, Howard Leight had my back by having my ears. Speed Shooting consists of all steel targets and one shot is often the difference between winning and losing. My Impact Sport electronic earmuffs have saved me so many times in my career – not only by protecting my hearing – but because they allow me to differentiate a hit or miss with a simple audio queue that can go unnoticed without the amplification these muffs provide. Whether I’m competing or hunting, I’m always protecting my ears while never missing everything that’s going on around me with my Impact Sports. A big thank you to the Howard Leight Team for making hearing-protection products that I can trust and for all the support they’ve extended to me over the years.”

A world-class athlete, Eusebio began competitive shooting over 25 years ago at age 8. He has set a number of records within the United States Practical Shooting Association, none of which have been broken to date. He became the youngest Master shooter at the age of 10 and the youngest Grand Master shooter at 12. Continuing to set the bar high for himself and others, Eusebio won the World Speed Shooting Championships at the age of 15 – the youngest athlete ever to do so.

As a first-generation American, KC’s patriotism and love of country led him to enlist in the United States Army, where he joined the elite Army Marksmanship Unit shooting team. Here, he further honed his abilities while teaching hundreds of other soldiers the advanced marksmanship skills that would consistently help complete their missions.

While his love for competition has helped deliver a successful career, Eusebio’s passion for sharing his sport has led him back to teaching. He co-founded MetaGroup, a firearms training company based in Atlanta, with World Champion shooter, Jessie Harrison, where the duo provides world-class training and instruction to military, law enforcement, and civilians.

“Training others is a true passion of mine,” Eusebio says. “I’ve shot competitively for over 25 years, so teaching and instructing is a way for me to give back. My purpose on earth is to share my knowledge and help others become more prepared in case they ever need to protect themselves and their family.”

Eusebio’s next match is the 2022 Dragon Cup in Odessa, Texas, May 13-14.
