Galco’s Trail Belt!
Phoenix, May 2022
Due to its tubular web construction, Galco’s Trail Belt is extremely comfortable, making it ideal for all-day hiking or long, active work-shift wear. While suitable for use as an IWB belt, this is our most flexible nylon web belt.
This incredibly comfortable belt strap is mated to a unique, quick-release Cobra Pro D-Ring buckle with the following features:
Far exceeds ANSI Z359.1, CSA, EN, UIAA, and NFPA standards for fall protection
Made from 12mm – 7075 aluminum alloy
Stainless Steel adjuster, rivets, components, and D-ring
Brass clips
CNC Machined for flawless precision, reliability, and safety – with no sharp edges
1½” wide and available in five sizes
For smaller pants loops, the male buckle half is easily removed before threading through the pants loops then replaced on the belt tail before buckling. Reverse to remove belt from smaller pants loops.
Reverse belt wear direction for right hand versus left hand use with a holster. This will keep the belt tail on the opposite side, and thus out of the way of a holster worn on the user’s strong side.

Notice: Temporary Suspension of Nickel-plated Cartridge Cases for all SIG SAUER Ammunition
Due to significant ongoing supply chain issues relating to the nickel-plating process, SIG SAUER has suspended nickel plating on all ammunition products until further notice to ensure continued timely ammunitions shipments.
The suspension of nickel plating means certain packaging that either states and/or pictures ammunition with nickel plated brass cases may not reflect that actual product. In those instances, nickel-plated casings have been substituted with standard brass cases.
All SIG SAUER ammunition is produced with the highest quality brass components, manufactured to exacting standards utilizing the most advanced processes, which is why SIG SAUER ammunition has been selected over and over by the U.S. military for its quality, precision and accuracy.
Please note, this is a temporary suspension. We will continue to monitor the situation and will work to resume nickel-plating as quickly as possible.
Save on Blemished Ammo
SIG SAUER blemished ammunition is available at reduced prices and includes minor cosmetic imperfections which result during typical manufacturing processes. These imperfections do not create functional issues. SIG SAUER blemished ammunition, is manufactured at the SIG SAUER ammunition facility in Jacksonville, Arkansas. Choose from 308 WIN, 223 REM, 6.5 Creedmoor, 45ACP, 5.56MM, 10MM, and more.

April 29, 2022: Rafael Advanced Defense Systems has inaugurated the SPYDER Defense System Simulation and Training Center in the Philippines in a ceremony held in the facility at an Air Base in Floridablanca, Philippines.
“This is yet another milestone in the ongoing Ground Based Air Defense System project and it is definitely a very important one. Certainly, the launchers and the missiles are a valuable asset, but the materiel is worth little without the air defender. It is not enough to hold the best systems, we have to train hard and maximize our potential as well as that of the systems. This training center comes to build the future generation of Philippine air defenders, their resolute spirit and professionalism.”
Executive Vice President, Brigadier General (Ret.) Pinhas Yungman, Head of the Air & Missile Defense Directorate, Rafael Advanced Defense Systems

The SPADS Simulator – Training Center is the Philippine Air Force’s first missile training center which will serve as a training ground for future air defenders to prepare them for real-time threats as well as enhancing personnel knowledge and skills. The training center is part of the GBADS Acquisition Project of the Philippine Air Force which will further enhance the nation’s defensive capabilities.

Topple Becomes Gold Sponsor of NSSF Marketing and Leadership Summit
NEWTOWN, Conn. — NSSF®, the Firearm Industry Trade Association, is pleased to announce that Topple has stepped up to be a Gold Sponsor of the NSSF Marketing and Leadership Summit in May near Austin, Texas.
Topple is a digital advertising network that specializes in helping brands reach American consumers outside of major ad networks such as Facebook and Google. They offer display, video, and native advertising and work with their clients to help advertise anything that’s legal—firearms included—to “reach the unreachable” American consumer.
Among Topple’s clients are several well-known firearm industry brands who are reaching millions of American consumers every single month with digital ads through Topple.
Topple notes that its founder and CEO has managed over $6 billion in advertising budgets for some of the world’s largest brands, giving him intimate knowledge as to the lengths BigTech has taken to silence entirely legal industries and how to best serve both publishers and advertisers. He’s used that knowledge to raise over $1 million, from backers like 1517 Fund and Pete Brownell’s 2nd Adventure Group, to build the only ad network built on the foundation of free-speech.
“For years the firearms industry has been forced to find creative ways to work around vague, ambiguous, overly broad and constantly changing rules about how they can reach their target customer with the latest in digital advertising technology. As the first programmatic ad network to allow brands to advertise anything that’s legal, Topple is excited to connect with marketing executives in the firearms industry to reveal how the digital advertising game has changed now that the firearms industry can leverage Topple as a tool to reach their target audience as a Gold Sponsor for the NSSF’s first Marketing & Leadership Summit,” said Brian Aitken, Founder & CEO of Topple.
“Given its specialization in digital advertising, Topple is a great fit as a Gold Sponsor of the NSSF Marketing and Leadership Summit,” said NSSF’s Managing Director, Exhibitions and Conferences. “Their presence demonstrates the importance of this conference to industry communications leaders.”
NSSF has combined two of its highly regarded industry professional development conferences—the Industry Summit and CMO Summit—into the NSSF Marketing and Leadership Summit. This not-to-be-missed event will take place May 10-12 at the Hyatt Regency Lost Pines Resort outside of Austin, Texas.
Join the industry’s leading executives and marketing professionals for two days of insights, education and networking opportunities at this “super-conference” Subject matter experts will cover topics including cutting-edge marketing strategies to the new demographics of firearm ownership to customer retention and leadership.
Attendance is limited, so register today at the Marketing and Leadership Summit’s website.
About NSSF
NSSF is the trade association for the firearm industry. Its mission is to promote, protect and preserve hunting and the shooting sports.

Revision Delivers Next Generation Micro Heads-Up Display to Air Force Rescue Unit
ESSEX JUNCTION, VERMONT (April 28, 2022) – Revision Military, a leading producer of protective eyewear for military, law enforcement, and civilian users, has recently completed the delivery of 50 prototype micro heads-up display systems to the U.S. Air Force’s 129th Rescue Squadron as part of an Air Force program to explore new technologies. The Revision Smart Eyewear powered by Ciye enhances situational awareness and mission effectiveness while offering state-of-the art ballistic eye protection.
The Revision Smart Eyewear powered by Ciye HUD system, is based on commercially available technology developed by Ciye, a U.S.-based leader in fitness tracking technology. The U.S. Air Force provided development funding for the device through the Air Force Research Laboratory’s (AFRL) AFWERX small business innovation research grant program.
“The goal in creating this system is to give the wearer access to essential tactical information in real-time without overwhelming them, all while providing ballistic eye protection,” says Revision CEO Amy Coyne. “The smart eyewear is based on Revision’s longstanding expertise in providing combat-proven solutions that protect our men and women in uniform.”
While wearing the 1.9-ounce smart eyewear, the user looks up and to the left to see an array of user-selectable data fields related to navigation. The display is only visible when needed, leaving the wearer’s entire field of view free from distracting information.
“The display is not in the user’s field of view,” says Ciye CEO Yuri Zhovnirovsky, “giving the wearer access to information without compromising situational awareness. A critical information need for the military is ‘where am I, and where am I going.’ Normally, you’d have to stop what you’re doing and consult a map or device to figure that out,” says Zhovnirovsky, “but with our device navigation and movement are seamless.”
Once the user selects and downloads a route from the Android or iOS smartphone app using a Bluetooth connection, the unit then runs autonomously, displaying route direction, moving time, and distance data that’s dynamically updated in real-time in three visible fields.
The smart eyewear contains a ballistic lens, an integrated display, GPS and antenna, a compass, accelerometer, gyroscope, and a 12-hour battery. The unit is semi-autonomous, only requiring a smartphone app to set navigation waypoints and configure the display. The battery is rechargeable in 30 minutes using a common USB power bank. The entire system is contained within the footprint of a set of spectacles that are designed to integrate with existing helmets and communication headgear.
As part of the Air Force Program trials, search and rescue personnel used the smart eyewear preloaded with mission navigation waypoints before their aircraft took off. Once on the ground, rescuers used the navigation HUD to guide them directly to their objective without using critical time in the landing zone to consult handheld navigation aids. An arrow pointing to the waypoint or objective, along with time and distance to the objective was displayed and updated in real-time as the wearer moved. Without needing to reference maps or tablets, the personnel had greater situational awareness and were able to move more efficiently through complex terrain.
Now that this initial field trial with the Air Force is complete, Revision and CIYE will continue to evolve the product into a state of operational readiness, identify stakeholders and further define end user requirements. For more information, please contact the team at solutions@revisionmilitary.com.
Above: The Revision Smart Eyewear powered by CIYE HUD system weighs just 1.9-ounces and provides enhanced situational awareness and mission effectiveness integrated into world-class ballistic eyewear. The user looks up and to the left to see an array of user-selectable data fields related to navigation. The display is only visible when needed, leaving the wearer’s entire field of view free from distracting information.

Since that time, Wheeler has continued to shoot in 3 Gun matches, growing her experience and her love for the sport. She has placed in every match that she’s gone to, and hopes to further improve her skills this season.

ANOKA, Minnesota – April 28, 2022 – Team Federal finished strong at the recent Magpul Texas 3-Gun Championship held at the Reveille Peak Ranch in Burnet, Texas, where Federal was a Platinum level sponsor. Of the 256 competitors, Team Federal shooters Josh Froelich and Konnor Fryburger were standouts in the competition. Froelich finished second overall, and first in the 2×4 Open Division. Fryburger received Top Junior honors, first in the Limited Division, plus he was named Top Texan in the Limited Division.
“The Magpul Texas 3-Gun Championship is one of the most respected multigun matches in the country. Match Directors Aaron Hayes and Garrison English once again proved that reputation to be well-deserved, and the hospitality at the event was top-notch,” said Jason Spradling, Federal’s Shooting Sports Promotions Manager. “A great multigun match requires competitors to strike a balance between judicious application of fundamentals and aggressive stage execution to score well. The team at the Texas 3-Gun Championship provided just such an experience.”
“The Texas 3-Gun championship is one of the most well attended, competitive, high-round count multigun shooting championships in the country.

I’m looking forward to coming back again to defend the title next year.”

The company’s founders launched Outguided after experiencing the frustration of booking adventures the old-fashioned way.
Outguided: The Story Behind the Brand
Madison, GA (April 28, 2022) – Outguided, an online platform that makes booking outdoor adventures easier than ever, connects people seeking great experiences with expert guides to create memories that last a lifetime. The company’s founders launched Outguided after experiencing the frustration of booking adventures the old-fashioned way. They knew that something was missing – a modern way to find, plan and book a trip without endless emails and phone calls so that both clients and guides can concentrate on the things that matter most.
Outguided was launched in late 2019 by Brooks Pennington, an avid hunter and fisherman, and Tim Rood, a skier, diver and surfer. While trying to book an elk-hunting trip in New Mexico, Pennington ran into the same issues he had encountered while seeking to book inshore fly-fishing trips along the Gulf Coast: spending hours researching and vetting guides, only to have trouble contacting them – because the guides were out guiding, often in remote locations, rather than sitting by the phone.
“Every time I called, the guides were out fishing, and their voicemail was full,” Pennington said. “I realized there had to be a better way.”
Pennington, who was working in the energy and real estate sectors in Georgia, reached out to Rood, a friend from The University of Georgia, who had spent his career working in technology in Los Angeles and San Francisco. They agreed the time was right to build the modern platform for outdoor adventure, and Outguided was born.
Designed in consultation with hundreds of guides and outfitters, Outguided provides ultimate convenience. The service allows outdoor lovers to browse activities and locations from one simple portal, setting up their dream trips or discovering exciting new activities. Activities include: skiing, winter sports, fishing, hunting, rafting, scuba diving and more, led by professional guides and outfitters who share their clients’ passion for the outdoors.
The service delivers inquiries straight to guides’ phones, making scheduling and payment a breeze for guides and clients alike. For guides, the service is free, with client inquiries going directly to their phones, while Outguided handles payments, messaging, scheduling and more.
“Our customers love the ease of setting up their trips, and our guides are thrilled to be connected with clients who understand the value of outdoor adventures in the world’s most beautiful places,” Pennington said. “Outguided is revolutionizing the way people find the most meaningful experiences and guides run their business.”
As part of its commitment to outdoor experiences and resources, Outguided contributes 2 percent of the company’s revenue to a conservation group that works to protect wild places.
Complete information is available at Outguided.com.
Outguided is a web-based marketplace for users to search, discover and book professionally guided trips around the world. With a growing list of over 1,500 guided trips available and a first-class consumer experience, Outguided guests can easily book the adventure of their dreams. The Outguided platform provides flawless booking from beginning to end, from the first time to once-in-a-lifetime. It’s all here.

Lena Miculek made her notable return to Multi-Gun after three years of focusing on USPSA PCC (pistol caliber carbine) competition. She claimed the highest overall finish of any woman in Multi-Gun Nationals history, placing seventh overall in the Tac-Optics Division as well as taking the High Lady title.
“I decided it was time to make my comeback to Multi-Gun, the sport that made me fall in love with competitive shooting in the first place,” Lena said. “I had 30 days to return a champion. Training was intense as I picked up my shotgun, rifle and pistol for the first time in what felt like a lifetime. With so many skills to worry about and train, I’m thankful my firearms’ reliability was never a concern. Hoppe’s Elite Gun Oil kept everything running smooth, Gun Medic kept me on the range and Lead-B-Gone wipes helped keep my hands clean for those lunches and dinners I spent training.”

Hi Everyone,
As you’re reading this, 11 American, German, and Australian firefighters are in Ukraine, supporting our fellow first responders as a war rages around them.
If you’re one of those who have donated so far and helped us raise more than $10,000 to make Project Joint Guardian’s mission possible, we cannot thank you enough.
Until the end of April, Fire Dept. Coffee will direct all donations to our charitable foundation to support Project Joint Guardian. There’s still time to contribute.
As a company run by American firefighters, we are part of an international family of brothers and sisters in the fire service. When family is in need, family steps up to help.
When Eric Hille came to us about this mission we knew that we had to help because he saw Ukraine’s first responders were overwhelmed.
It’s an honor for us to help. But this isn’t about us. This is about family.
Again, thank you to everyone who has donated — or will donate soon — to help our firefighter family in Ukraine.
Sincerely,
Jason Patton
Vice President
Fire Dept. Coffee

Orchid and Williams Mullen demonstrated their outstanding support for promoting responsible gun ownership by making a gracious donation of $15,000 to the Project ChildSafe Foundation.
April 27, 2022
ATLANTA — At the Firearms Industry Conference taking place here April 26-27, hosts Orchid and Williams Mullen demonstrated their outstanding support for promoting responsible gun ownership by making a gracious donation of $15,000 to the Project ChildSafe® Foundation.
The contribution will help support NSSF’s Project ChildSafe firearm safety education program, the largest and most comprehensive firearm safety initiative in the country. Project ChildSafe is a program of NSSF®, The Firearm Industry Trade Association.
Jon Rydberg, CEO of Orchid, Charles E. “Chuck” James, Jr., and Camden Webb, partners at Williams Mullen, presented the generous donation to Zach Snow, NSSF’s Director of Member Development.
As organizers of the Firearm Industry Conference, Orchid and Williams Mullen pledged to donate a portion of conference registration and sponsorship proceeds to support Project ChildSafe. “NSSF extends its deep appreciation to Orchid and Willams Mullen, and to the attendees of this conference, for supporting our nationwide gun safety efforts through Project ChildSafe,” said Snow during remarks at the conference.
With millions of new gun owners—including 5.4 million in 2021 alone—seeking guidance on how to safely handle and store their firearms when not in use, the demand for Project ChildSafe’s safety resources is greater than ever. Donations such as Orchid’s and Williams Mullen’s help the program meet the extraordinary number of requests for its safety tools.
Project ChildSafe’s gun locks and educational materials are available to any community free of charge. The program has partnered with more than 15,000 law enforcement departments since 1999, and it has distributed more than 40 million firearm safety kits that include a cable gun lock and safety brochure.
In addition to law enforcement, city leaders, industry supporters and national organizations help Project ChildSafe spread the message of genuine gun safety that can help prevent firearm-related accidents, theft and misuse, including suicide.

ARLINGTON, Va., April 26, 2022 – AeroVironment, Inc. (NASDAQ: AVAV), a global leader in intelligent, multi-domain robotic systems, today announced the successful maritime demonstration of Interoperability to Interchangeability (I2I) operations by the U.S. Navy and Royal Navy using AeroVironment’s Puma™ 3 AE small unmanned aircraft systems. The demonstration was part of a combined event – International Maritime Exercise 2022/Cutlass Express 2022 (IMX/CE 22) – that took place from Feb. 6-17, 2022.
IMX/CE 22 is the largest maritime exercise in the Middle East with more than 60 partner nations and organizations participating with 9,000 personnel and 50 ships. IMX/CE 22 was also the largest maritime unmanned systems exercise to date with more than 80 unmanned systems, including unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), unmanned surface vessels (USVs) and unmanned undersea vehicles (UUVs).
The I2I capability demonstration was supported by AeroVironment as part of the U.S. 5th Fleet’s Task Force 59 team, denoted as Task Force X (TF-X), participating in IMX/CE 22. TF-X was comprised of various multinational government and industry partners working together to integrate and demonstrate new unmanned systems capabilities for U.S. and coalition naval forces in a series of pre-planned serials.
During the exercise, AeroVironment’s Blue Hotel computer vision and analytics solution demonstrated the visual identification of maritime targets simultaneously from multiple UAV and USV video feeds in real-time during all of the TF-X serials. It was also used by the U.S. Navy as the primary video repository and distribution hub for TF-X, providing all coalition partners with access to real-time video feeds and artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML) analytic results for Maritime Domain Awareness (MDA). The advanced AI/ML software enabled the warfighters to quickly sift through the large amounts of video data, pinpointing individual vessels of interest, and providing real time information on their activities throughout the exercise.
“Built upon past demonstrations, such as REP(MUS) 21 and 2018 U.S. Navy Coastal Riverine Craft maritime S2S exercises, these successful I2I operations coupled with Blue Hotel’s automated target recognition and MDA capabilities offer a glimpse at the maritime and autonomy product capability expansions AeroVironment’s MacCready Works Advanced Solutions team is spearheading,” said Jeff Rodrian, AeroVironment vice president of AV Ventures.
