Savage Arms Adds 6.5 PRC to 110 Precision Lineup
Savage Arms Adds 6.5 PRC to 110 Precision Lineup
WESTFIELD, Massachusetts – December 6, 2021 – Savage Arms is proud to announce the addition of 6.5 PRC to its line of 110 Precision rifles. This new chambering provides outstanding short-magnum potential from an adaptable rifle platform that will be chambered in both right and left-hand configurations.
“The 6.5 PRC was originally designed as a long-range hunting round,” said Jessica Treglia, Sr. Brand Manager at Savage Arms. “This is essentially a magnum version of the 6.5 Creedmoor—but much of what makes the 6.5 PRC cartridge great for hunting makes it a contender on the competition side, too. 6.5 bullets are known for their exceptional ballistic coefficients and the 6.5 PRC adds more velocity from its short-magnum design. They are performing really well and are especially capable in adverse conditions.”
The 110 Precision line is built around Savage’s 110 action. With a custom LSS stock designed by the accuracy experts at Modular Driven Technologies (MDT), the 110 Precision is fully customizable. From the adjustable comb height and length of pull to the capabilities of its AccuTriger™, this aluminum-framed rifle is built for exacting performance.

German Precision Optics (GPO) Expands to Fixed Power Scopes
German Precision Optics (GPO) Expands to Fixed Power Scopes
RICHMOND, Va. (Dec. 6, 2021) — German Precision Optic USA’s owner and CEO, Mike Jensen is pleased to announce that the company is entering the fixed power scope market with the introduction of its new SPECTRA™ 7.5x50i. Designed for the all-around scope user, this new riflescope features a slim and sleek configuration that will offer simplicity to shooters who do not need a variable power scope.
This new scope is engineered using a 50mm double HD objective lens system for enhanced resolution coupled with the GPObright™ high transmission lens coatings. A 30mm main tube maximizes optical performance while supporting incremental elevation adjustment capabilities. It is crafted from a solid, one-piece dust-proof, waterproof, nitrogen-filled body for ultimate strength and durability. An illuminated general use G4i reticle powered with the GPO iCONTROL™ illumination system will assist the shooter in placing the perfect shot in even the lowest light conditions. Custom designed turrets are made to easily reset your zero to the indicator mark on the scope body.
“The advantage a fixed power scope brings shooters is a larger than normal field of view, and when you match that with a 50mm objective and 7.5x magnification, you have the perfect all around scope that is lighter and has fewer mechanical parts” says Jensen.
The 7.5x50i fixed power scope comes with a cleaning cloth, see-through bikini ocular and objective lens scope covers, and an extra CR2032 battery. All GPO products purchased in the USA include the GPO, USA’s Spectacular Lifetime Warranty™. Full details on this industry-changing warranty can be found at www.gpo-usa.com.
This new fixed power scope features high quality glass, proven precision and the quality construction that hunters and shooters have come to expect from GPO. It’s currently available at both retailers nationwide and at www.gpo-usa.com for a retail price of 599.99.

Christmas and Holiday Gift Ideas from Vickers Tactical
Just in time for Christmas and Year’s End, my new Second Edition of Vickers Guide: 1911 (Volume 1) and (Volume 2) has arrived at our warehouse, and both volumes are now shipping! We have a lot of backorders to fill, so though there is no guarantee that we can get you these books in time for Christmas, we will do our best to get them to you as quickly as reasonably possible!
These two new 1911 books took on a life of their own, becoming MUCH bigger animals than I ever could have ever imagined when first setting out on the path to reprint the sold-out First Edition of the 1911 Book.
It’s amazing to think that, although we reprinted two sold-out books in 2021 [Vickers Guide: Kalashnikov (Volume 1) and Vickers Guide: AR-15 (Volume 1)], we actually haven’t released a new title since around 13 months ago — but we can assure you that these two new 1911 Books are going to prove to be well worth the wait!
Standard and Slipcase Edition 1911 Books are shipping now, and I will be signing Signature Edition 1911 Books the week of December 13 – so expect Signature Edition 1911 Books to begin shipping shortly thereafter.
We have LOTS of backorders to work our way through, and many of the orders are fairly complicated, so we ask for your patience in getting these books out the door. There are no guarantees that they will be delivered to you in time for Christmas, so if you absolutely need a 1911 Book by that time, please give your purchase careful consideration.

PROOF Research® Team Shooter, Austin Orgain, Takes Home PRS Pro Series Golden Bullet Award for Second Year in a Row
PROOF Research® Team Shooter, Austin Orgain, Takes Home PRS Pro Series Golden Bullet Award for Second Year in a Row
Orgain was also the top finisher in the 2021 Precision Rifle Series season. Orgain credits his personalized rifle build including the PROOF Research® steel competition contour barrel.
Columbia Falls, Mont. (December 2021) –PROOF Research®’s sponsored shooter, Austin Orgain, took home the Precision Rifle Series Pro Series Golden Bullet award for the second year in a row and is ranked #1 in the PRS Bolt Gun Series PRO Division. The PRS PRO Series Finale was held Nov. 6 – 7, 2021 at the NRA Whittington Center in Raton, New Mexico. Some 200 of the country’s most elite precision rifle shooters competed in the challenging course of fire Finale. Orgain competes using a rifle build with a PROOF Research steel competition contour barrel in 6mm Dasher in PROOF’s .243, 1:7.5 twist.
Orgain commented, “The consistency and accuracy that I see from PROOF barrel to barrel makes my job so much easier. Break one in, load the same charge, and go hammer.”
PRS matches were “born out of Military, Law Enforcement and Hunting scenarios,” with no two matches alike. The competitions are known to not only pit shooter against shooter, but the individual competitor against him or herself. Whether it’s the extreme shooting stages or rugged environments, PRS competitors require high-performance tools to weather the often changeable and challenging conditions. The Competition Contour barrel and all of PROOF Research’s barrels are single-point cut rifled, lead-lapped, and thoroughly inspected at multiple quality control stations.
PROOF Research is proud to have some of the top long-range shooting competitors in the country using PROOF Research barrels. They know that PROOF Research delivers a world-class barrel for extreme accuracy and performance.
PROOF Research’s cut-rifled barrels are designed for extreme accuracy, performance, and reliability under any environmental condition. PROOF Research congratulates all its team members and looks forward to a stellar 2022 competition year.

About Precision Rifle Series:
The Precision Rifle Series is the preeminent rifle organization in the world, structuring a yearly point race for both the PRS Pro Bolt Gun Series and the PRS Regional Series. The PRS Championship Shooting Series is synonymous with precision rifle shooting. The PRS is home to countless competitors including 6,000 active PRS shooters with scores being tracked. The PRS unites the 40 most renowned national pro series precision rifle competitions and continues to expand the PRS Regional Series, which hosts hundreds of one-day matches from coast to coast. The International PRS Series is advancing in South Africa and Australia to name a few. The influence of the PRS, with more than 1,000 professional-level competitors and a growing global presence, extends in every conceivable direction inspiring the precision rifle community at its grassroots, hometown level.
We are recognized as the leading organizing body for local, regional, and national matches, tracking of scores, and the growth of the practical, long-range rifle discipline. By incorporating the visions of the PRS shooters, match directors, and sponsors we strive to achieve competitive excellence in each series and cultivate opportunities for shooters at every level. The PRS is committed to working alongside our partners to deliver a world-class Precision Rifle Series Organization.
The outlaw nature of the sport has made this a very unique collection of matches in all of the series. Matches are run very differently, focus on different fundamentals, and include a vast number of stressors, no two PRS matches are the same! This provides for regional variances that are unique and very challenging. Texas and Oklahoma matches are far different from the west coast and east coast matches and allow the shooter to really test the full extent of their capabilities by participating in both the national level Pro Bolt Gun Series two-day competitions and the local Regional Series one-day competitions.
Born out of Military, Law Enforcement, and Hunting scenarios, the practical application of the precision rifle is the underlying theme for all series. Whether you are looking for a local club to join or you want to test yourself against the best shooters in the nation and the world, the Precision Rifle Series has a spot for you. www.precisionrifleseries.com

About Dixxon Flannel
Established in 2013, Dixxon began with the goal of creating the world’s best flannel. Growing up around motorcycles, skateboards and hardcore/punk music, flannels have always been a staple in our closets. But, like everyone else, we were tired of them not fitting well and then wrinkling, shrinking and fading after the first wash. We started with flannels but approach every other product with the same approach – classics redefined.

A Happy Holidays Shoot the Shit
I hope you’ve all had a fantastic Thanksgiving and were not overwhelmed by the table talk. This is a great time of the year, even with COVID hanging around our necks. We now have a new variant designated Omicron by the World Health Organization but don’t let it get you down or add to your anxiety. That anxiety can lead to some peculiar behaviors, for example…
The way to deal with COVID anxiety is to get your vaccine and booster jabs. There’s all kinds of misinformation flying around about the vaccine, which is being process by people as the vaccine is dangerous . Here’s the accurate and succinct correct interpretation: the vaccine does not prevent you from contracting COVID it protects you from becoming severely ill; possibly succumbing to COVID. You’ll hear about adverse reactions, but rest assured that some people have adverse reactions to Tylenol, and other off the shelf meds, so don’t run out to seek psychological help; instead schedule a shoot the shit . Remember that a therapist is a jackass who majored in psychology so they could understand themselves. So, what’s a shoot the shit?
A shoot the shit is a social interaction during which any topic can be discussed. The participants don’t need to know anything about the topic, they’re free to make any unsupported comment, speak in uncensored profanity, insult anyone the wish or change the subject altogether. So, let’s shoot the shit.
I have a personal interest in the Climate phobia and the clean energy extravaganza. In past shoot the shits, I’ve expressed my belief that Congress legislates via anal extraction. Seriously, think about it. Who, with a measurable I.Q. would transition from fossil fuel power generation, which is producing electric energy 24 x 7, to wind and solar sources that are lower output and don’t operate continuously?
Now, try this one out for size. In-between his maternity leave, Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg, while discussing gasoline’s rising prices says to the interviewer that when people transition to electric vehicles they’ll never have to deal with high gas prices. Secretary Buttigieg has no idea that annual sales of automobiles, light trucks and SUV are 17 million units per year. In 2019 there were 276 million vehicles registered in the U.S. Now, imagine that all those vehicles are now electric. Can you imagine the magnitude of that load on the power grid. Maybe he thinks charging vehicle batteries can be done by farting into a tank.
Further more, why are gas prices rising? Because there’s a lower supply of oil, so can you imagine what phasing out fossil fuels will do to national power generation and the cost of electricity.
Think about it folks, it’s remarkable.
Have a great weekend ! Don’t let the bullshit get you down; we’re a mere 22 days from Christmas.

Available Now – The CZ-USA Shadow 2 Orange Competition Pistol
Kansas City, KS (December 1, 2021) – Turning the Shadow 2 up a notch, CZ-USA released the CZ Shadow 2 Orange pistol, designed and manufactured for the competitive shooter who wants to win.
A variation of CZ-USA’s very popular CZ Shadow 2 pistol, currently in use in USPSA & IPSC Production Division events, in a nod to previous premium CZ-USA products the Shadow 2 Orange features new aluminum grip panels finished in snappy-looking orange. The improvements in this Shadow model go well beyond coloring.
The trigger, hammer, and sear of the CZ Shadow 2 Orange are hand-fitted for exacting precision, shot after shot. The barrel is polished and sports a new bushing to improve accuracy. The trigger is tuned for a smooth, crisp release and offers a short reset.
Also, the CZ Shadow 2 Orange is equipped with a competition hammer and an adjustable aluminum magazine release catch. The magazines have matching orange aluminum basepads and the gun features an extended safety. A set of flat safeties and a flat slide stop can be purchased separately.
Like the original Shadow 2, the CZ Shadow 2 Orange sports aggressive checking on the aluminum grips for a solid hold, even when the shooter’s hands are dirty and sweaty from running stages. The front and backstrap are nicely checkered, too.
Shooters get on target fast thanks to the pistol’s fiber-optic front sight paired with a serrated, black HAJO rear (click adjustable for elevation, drift adjustable for windage). The higher beavertail and undercut trigger guard provide additional stability, and the swappable magazine release has an adjustable, extended button with three settings.

(NASDAQ: AVAV) a global leader in intelligent, multi-domain robotic systems, today announced it received a $4,151,320 firm-fixed-price U.S. Department of Defense Foreign Military Sales (FMS) contract award on Sept. 27, 2021 to provide Puma™ 3 AE and Wasp® AE small unmanned aircraft systems (UAS), initial spares packages, training and support to an allied nation. Delivery is anticipated by September 2022.
“Allied forces around the world continue to adopt and deploy AeroVironment’s battle-proven small unmanned aircraft systems in order to increase the mission effectiveness and safety of their frontline forces,” said Trace Stevenson, AeroVironment vice president and product line general manager for small UAS.
AeroVironment’s Puma 3 AE unmanned aircraft system is designed for land and maritime operations. The hand-launched Puma 3 AE has a wingspan of 9.2 feet, weighs 15 pounds and can operate for up to 2.5 hours. The aircraft also has a range of 12.4 miles (20 kilometers) with a standard range antenna, up to 24.9 miles (40 kilometers) with AeroVironment’s Extended Range Antenna (ERA) and up to 37.2 miles (60 kilometers) with AeroVironment’s Long-Range Tracking Antenna (LRTA). It also features reduced system packaging with a flyable configuration and Ground Control System (GCS) in one case. Capable of landing in water or on land, the all-environment Puma 3 AE and Mantis i45 EO/IR sensor suite empower operators with extended flight time and a level of imaging capability never before available in the small UAS class.
Wasp AE is a lightweight, man-packable UAS that weighs just over a kilogram and delivers best-in-class capabilities for an unmanned aircraft system of its size, including stealthy maneuverability, superior imagery, encrypted video and exceptional ease of use. Wasp’s gimbaled payload is mechanically stabilized, enabling it to transmit advanced imagery in high-wind conditions, while its advanced avionics allow operators the option of manual or autonomous navigation.
