A Happy Holidays Shoot the Shit

Beautiful Snow Falling Christmas Scene Animation ~ Makes Great Background  with Music - YouTube

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…

Screenshot 2021-12-02 164625

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

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.

Introducing Shoot United™

Attracting newcomers to enjoy the shooting sports.

“Shoot United” Launches to Introduce New People to the Shooting Sports
Target shooting is one of the most popular and fastest-growing high school sports in the United States. This is not something a person hears every day, nor is the fact that more than 60 million adults participate in the shooting sports each year, making it one of the most popular recreation activities in the country. Yet there are still millions of individuals (young and old) who have never joined family and friends to participate in the variety of challenging shooting sports.
The shooting sports are one of the fastest-growing recreational activities in the country, and for good reasons.
We are introducing Shoot United™ — a dynamic initiative designed to promote all that’s wholesome and healthful about the shooting sports. It’s time spent outdoors with family and friends. It’s competition. It’s one of the most fun and safe recreational activities in the country as well as the fastest-growing sport at the high school level.
Throughout 2022 and 2023, engaging content will be shared nationwide through mainstream media. Shoot United will also release content through its own digital and social platforms. The content is meant to entertain, inform and foster a healthy and transparent dialogue. In addition, grassroots events will be coordinated throughout the United States for people to join, with the mission to drive awareness and introduce new participants to the sport.
To make the shooting sports a part of your life, please join us at

Galco’s Shoulder Systems – Ideal for Winter Carry!

Galco Holsters

Galco’s Shoulder Systems – Ideal for Winter Carry!

Click to Shop Now

Phoenix, December 2021

One of the oft-overlooked advantages of shoulder systems – especially horizontal shoulder holsters – is how easy they are to access when wearing heavy winter clothing. And while it may not ever really be winter in Miami, Galco’s world-renowned Miami Classic™ shoulder holster system carries a handgun in a horizontal position for a very fast draw. It also carries two spare magazines in a vertical orientation, securely held in place with snapped straps. Available for semiautomatic pistols, it’s made of premium steerhide in black and tan.

Refined and modernized for the 21st century, Galco’s Miami Classic II™ shoulder holster system carries a handgun in a horizontal position for a very fast draw. It also orients its double spare ammo carrier in a horizontal position, allowing a fast and natural grasp when reloading. Made for semiautomatic pistols and DA revolvers, the Miami Classic II is available in right or left hand draw in tan or black (autos only).

One key feature of the Jackass Rig™ is the ability to adjust the holster to a more butt-down and muzzle-up position, which often enables smaller-statured shooters to conceal bigger guns than a strictly horizontal holster. The Jackass Rig’s magazine carrier holds two spare magazines in a vertical position. The concealable, medium-width harness is made of comfortable Premium Center Cut Steerhide™. Made for a wide variety of semiautomatic pistols, the Jackass Rig is available in right and left hand draw in black finish.

The Classic Lite 2.0 offers all the comfort and versatility of Galco’s professional-grade shoulder systems. Natural-colored Premium Center Cut Steerhide construction allows us to offer a very reasonably priced alternative shoulder system with a proven track record. The Classic Lite 2.0 is available in right and left hand draw for semiautos and DA revolvers.

A key component of Galco’s concealment shoulder systems is the spider harness. All four points of the harnesses pivot independently and are connected by our unique clover shaped Flexalon™ swivel back plate, which is a Galco trademark. This results in a perfect fit and lasting comfort for all sizes and shapes.

Team Federal Shines at the 2021 Fort Benning Multigun Challenge

ANOKA, Minnesota – December 1, 2021 – Team Federal sponsored shooters finished strong at the recent 2021 Fort Benning Multigun Challenge in Fort Benning Georgia. Every fall, the U.S. Army hosts this event at the fort’s recreational shooting complex. Federal supported this year’s match as a Gold Sponsor. Team Federal shooters Tucker Schmidt, Alysia Burrows and Todd Jarrett all performed well among the 234 shooters on hand. Schmidt earning a second-place finish for the match shooting in the Open division, Burrows with second place in the Tac Ops division for the Ladies’ category, and Jarrett finishing in eighth place for the Tac Ops division also earning “Top Senior” for the match.

“Congratulations to all our shooters at this match. The Army Marksmanship Unit are famous for running fun, innovative matches. From all I’ve heard, this one was no exception,” said Federal Ammunition Shooting Sports Promotions Manager Jason Spradling. “Our Team Federal shooters always do a great job representing our brand and I’m proud of their achievements this weekend.”

“It was a close and heated competition. It came down to the very last stage and it didn’t go my way. I’ll be working hard to come back next year and get the win,” said Schmidt. “My go-to ammo is The Federal Gold Medal line of shotgun and precision rifle ammo, as well as the American Eagle 55-grain for the go-fast rifle portions.”

“In a stiff competition environment like Benning, there really isn’t any margin for error. That’s why knowing your guns and knowing your ammo is a big part of preparation for an event like this,” said Burrows. “Feeding high performance guns with questionable ammo isn’t an option. I’ve always used Federal, even before I was on the team. I know each round is going to perform the same as the last.”

“Todd Jarrett’s Top Senior trophy and top-ten finish certainly was a highlight of the event for Team Federal,” continued Spradling. “Todd is a seasoned competitor and is well respected in the community. We’re excited to have him on board representing our brand with solid performances like this one.”

A Girl & A Gun Cadre Grows with USCCA

AUSTIN, TX (AGirlandAGun.org) — A Girl & A Gun Women’s Shooting League (AG & AG) announces its official partnership with the United States Concealed Carry Association (USCCA). The agreement aligns USCCA — a leading provider of firearms training and education — with AG & AG, the nation’s premier women’s organization.

“For the past several years, we have encouraged our Chapter Facilitators to earn their USCCA instructor credentials. We have many instructors in our organization who have seized the opportunity — and now we have fourteen more,” said Robyn Sandoval, Executive Director of AG & AG.

Sandoval was one of fourteen AG & AG instructors from nine different states who recently traveled to West Bend, WI, to become certified to present the USCCA Concealed Carry & Home Defense Fundamentals coursework. By successfully completing the course, the instructors may use the materials to educate the growing numbers of enthusiastic gun owners in their home communities. AG & AG has scheduled three additional USCCA instructor-level courses, as well as dozens of student-level courses, throughout 2022.

“We are proud to officially partner with USCCA and to bring more of their industry-leading curriculum and services to our members and their communities,” Sandoval said. “Our organizations have a shared mission of providing quality training to help responsibly armed citizens protect their families.”

USCCA will also be a Diamond Sponsor at the 10th Annual AG & AG National Conference in April 2022. Three USCCA instructor teams will be on site to teach pistol and rifle courses to more than 300 AG & AG members during the event.

AG & AG members can take advantage of USCCA’s online classes and legal resources. AG & AG members receive 15% off any USCCA membership by visiting the members’ Vendor Partner page.

Nevada Judge Announces After Hearing That He Will Strike Down Major Portions of New Nevada Gun Law on Constitutional Due Process Grounds in Major Victory for Polymer80, Inc.

Nevada Judge Announces After Hearing That He Will Strike Down Major Portions of New Nevada Gun Law on Constitutional Due Process Grounds in Major Victory for Polymer80, Inc.

DAYTON, Nev. (Dec. 1, 2021) — On November 23, 2021, in a huge victory for both Polymer80 and the Second Amendment in Nevada, the Hon. Judge John P. Schlegelmilch of the Lyon County, Nevada District Court stated he would be issuing summary judgment in favor of Polymer80, Inc., in their lawsuit against Nevada Governor Steve Sisolak, Nevada Attorney General Aaron Ford, George Togliatti, Director of the Nevada Department of Public Safety, and Mindy McKay, Administrator of the Records, Communications, and Compliance Division of the Nevada Department of Public Safety. The judgment would invalidate and bar enforcement of major portions of Nevada Assembly Bill 286, on due process grounds under the Nevada state constitution.

Assemblywoman Sandra Jauregui (D-Las Vegas) sponsored AB286 which passed on straight-party line votes in both the Nevada Assembly and Senate. Gov. Sisolak, a democrat signed AB286 into law in early June 2021. AB286 generally prohibits a person from possessing, purchasing, transporting or receiving any unfinished frame or receiver of a firearm, or assembling any firearm not imprinted with a serial number. Initial violations carry a criminal misdemeanor penalty; repeat violations can be punished by a felony charge.
In deciding to issue summary judgment, Judge Schlegelmilch held that a trial was not needed, and that Polymer80 was immediately entitled to both a Declaratory Judgment that AB286 was unduly and unconstitutionally void for vagueness, and a Permanent Injunction forever banning enforcement of key provisions in the new enactment for that reason. Judge Schlegelmilch, who upon Polymer80’s motion had preliminarily prevented enforcement of those provisions in July 2021, specifically found that Sections 3 and 3.5 of AB286 were unconstitutionally ambiguous in their language criminalizing, among other things, the possession, sale, transfer, transport, and manufacture of “unfinished frames or receivers.” Polymer80 had argued that this said criminalization would threaten its very existence. In that respect, the Court further found that the definition of an “unfinished frame or receiver” incorporated in those two Sections was exceedingly and unconstitutionally vague in its use and reliance upon various terms including, among others, “blank,” “casting,” and “machined body” that were undefined in the statute and did not have accepted common meanings.
In addition, the Court determined that the additional required component of the definition of “unfinished frame or receiver” mandating that a blank, casting, or machined body have reached such a stage of formation that “most of the major machining operations” needed to turn those items into a firearm had been completed was fatally vague and ambiguous. The Court ruled that those terms, alone and together, were so unclear and uncertain that they did not provide fair notice to a Nevadan of ordinary intelligence as to what specific conduct AB286 prohibited, rendering the bill unconstitutional under the Due Process Clause of the Nevada Constitution. The Court also ruled that those vague terms encouraged and effectively authorized arbitrary and discriminatory enforcement against all Nevadans, in that AB286 left the interpretation and application of those nebulous terms entirely to the discretion of governmental authorities, which Nevada Supreme Court decisions have precluded. Finally, Judge Schlegelmilch indicated that he would be issuing a formal written Order in December 2021, encapsulating and memorializing his oral rulings, declaring the cited provisions of AB286 unconstitutionally vague, and barring their enforcement permanently.
“This is a significant victory for Polymer80, Nevadans, and our customers nationwide,” Polymer80 CEO Loran Kelley said. “AB286 is vague and unlawful legislation that targets our company specifically for conducting a lawful business. We will continue to challenge lawless attempts to curtail our rights and the rights of our customers. Polymer80 would like to thank our loyal customers, whose continued support allows us to keep fighting for Second Amendment rights across the country and our attorneys at Greenspoon Marder, LLP who worked tirelessly and never gave up this fight. Polymer80 strongly believes that the Second Amendment is a foundational principal in America that can never be violated. Continuing to fight those who strive to take it away is a core belief of our company. It’s one more example of our company motto, ‘Engage Your Freedom.’”
Founded in 2013 and headquartered in Dayton, NV, Polymer80, Inc. designs and develops innovative firearms, components and aftermarket accessories that allow customers to participate in the build process, while expressing the right to bear arms.

PANDORA’S BOX

1911s Parts & Accessories Revolvers

PANDORA’S BOX is a genuine piece and was hand-engraved by a gold and silversmith master engraver over many months of work. The gun refers to the Greek mythology when Pandora illegally opened the box given to her and evil came upon mankind. The representation on the pistol is a modification of the historical event of the Corona Pandemic of 2020-2021. Pandora has been hand-engraved in silver. She opens the box in China and from there the virus moves across the continents and spreads fear and death. The inlays are made of 999 silver / 24 carat gold and have been inlaid in the pistol. The box for this pistol was made by hand from solid cherry with metal exposed panels. The artwork is based on a model titled, “Hell Consuming Man.”

Go for Gold with Andro Corp’s AR15/M16 TiN Gold BCG

Back by popular demand, Andro Corp’s gold-polished titanium nitride hard-coated bolt carrier group.

Go for Gold with Andro Corp’s AR15/M16 TiN Gold BCG

Back by popular demand, Andro Corp’s gold-polished titanium nitride hard-coated bolt carrier group.

Winter Garden, Fla. (November 2021)Andro Corp., a Florida-based designer and manufacturer of quality AR platforms, uppers, lowers, and AR parts, announce the popular ACI gold polished titanium nitride hard coat BCG for AR15/M16’s is back in stock.

The gold polish adds more to the ACI BCG than just gun bling; it actually lengthens the life of the TiN nitride BCG by providing additional lubricity while combating friction. ACI’s full auto-profiled AR15/M16 TiN BCG is machined from 8620 alloy, heat-treated, and ultrasonically cleaned. The hard chrome bore is Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD) coated gold and polished. The PVD coating is a technique by which a solid material is converted into a vapor to coat the subject product. This PVD process condenses the material into a vapor and turns it into a very thin, solid coating covering the piece. The benefits of PVD coating include better resistance to environmental conditions such as corrosion and abrasion and will not wear off or fade out. ACI’s gold-polished BCG is meant to accept the punishment of continuous use in any environment while maintaining optimal performance.

Additionally, the 9310 alloy bolt, machined 4140 Tool steel alloy extractor, 4130 chromoly steel alloy gas key, and 4340 chromoly steel alloy camp pin are all PVD coated and polished for additional lubricity and corrosion resistance.

ACI’s AR15/M16 TiN Gold Polished BCG is HP proof tested without evidence of failure 100 percent by using a high-pressure M197 or SAAMI commercial equivalent. MPI testing occurs after the successful HP proof test, using the ASTM E1444 inspection standard five-turn magnetizing coil.

ACI’s AR15/M16 TiN nitride BCG is 100 percent made in the USA and fully backed by ACI’s Lifetime Warranty. Available through Optics Planet with an MSRP of $199.00 (on sale). Dealers/Distributors interested in carrying Andro Corp. Industries products, contact info@androcorpind.com for more information.


About Andro Corp. Industries:

Andro Corp. Industries is a Florida-based designer and manufacturer of quality AR platforms, uppers and lowers, and AR parts for the 2A community, sport shooters, personal defense, and professionals.

Using only the best quality American-made parts, Andro Corp. has grown from a local garage-based business serving local gun shows to a full-blown facility offering customers nationally the same personal service and attention, but with a myriad of AR rifles, uppers, lowers, and parts.

APEX Ammunition Upland Bird TSS Loads Now Available

Columbus, Miss. (November 30, 2021) – APEX Ammunition is pleased to announce its Upland Bird TSS shotshells are now shipping. These meticulously handloaded, ultra-high-density Tungsten Super Shot loads deliver exceptional performance in a non-toxic round. Whether you are hunting grouse or Huns out West, quail in the South or late season roosters across the Great Plains, APEX TSS helps you put more birds in hand.

“An increasing number of states and public lands are transitioning to non-toxic shotshell requirements, and our APEX Upland loads give bird hunters confidence that they won’t sacrifice performance with an environmentally friendly round,” said Jason Lonsberry, CEO of APEX Ammunition. “TSS simply delivers unrivaled knockdown power due to its density, tight patterning, and retained velocity. This has expanded options for upland hunters, many of whom now use sub-gauge shotguns – even 28 gauge and .410 bore – to achieve clean kills on various upland birds from quail to pheasants.”

At 18.1 g/cc density, APEX TSS is denser than Lead (11.34 g/cc), Bismuth (9.8g/cc), Copper (8.8g/cc), or Steel (7.84 g/cc), allowing the use of smaller-sized TSS pellets and more of them per payload. The result? More pellets on target and greater knockdown power at longer ranges.

These handloaded upland shotshells feature clean-burning powder and a one-piece, Tungsten-grade wad system engineered to deliver the tightest patten possible and maximum barrel protection.

APEX Upland Bird is available in 3-inch 12- and 20-gauge loads. Upland 28 gauge 2 ¾-inch and .410 bore 2 ½ and 3-inch loads are available upon request. For more information on APEX Upland Bird offerings, visit: ApexMunition.com/upland

MSRP: $49.99 – $65.99 (per 10 round box)



About APEX Ammunition

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.

TRUE Knives SmartKnife+ Puts Multi-Use in a Small and ‘Smart’ Package

TRUE Knives SmartKnife+ Puts Multi-Use in a Small and ‘Smart’ Package

Fort Worth, Texas (November 30, 2021) – A stand-alone knife is always better than a multi-tool. What about a stand-alone knife that has had some additions? When the primary purpose of a tool is for cutting, and it retains that foundation, adding some extras can carry a user far beyond standard capabilities. It may not entirely be a multi-tool, but it definitely comes in handy.

TRUE Knives releases their SmartKnife+. It’s a small pocket knife that has been augmented to add some additional uses. Whether a user actually employs these additions, doesn’t take away from the original function of being a knife. This knife houses a bottle opener, a .25” bit driver with a Phillips bit included in the magnetic bit storage, three flathead screwdrivers, 6mm-14mm wrenches, wire strippers, a pry bar, a 2” inch ruler, and a 5cm ruler. All of this is housed in the high-grade stainless-steel frame. This has a true multi-tool capability.

The 2.375” partially-serrated blade is 420 stainless steel with a black oxide coating, more than enough for daily tasks. This steel material is easy to sharpen and will offer some serious rust prevention. When folded, the flipper acts as a flathead screwdriver or small prying tool, while the opposite is a bottle opener. On the butt of the knife is a small pry bar and two additional flat head screwdrivers. Just above the pry bar is the .25” bit storage. The .25” bit driver is accessible at the top of the handle when the knife is closed. In the middle of the handle are a series of metric wrenches that can cover most tasks, and, on the sides, a 2” ruler, a 5cm ruler, and a file are featured.

This knife is, at its core, a knife with extra features. TRUE Knives has devoted itself to keeping the main use unadulterated, effectively retaining the full usability of the knife with extra features. This multi-use knife measures 4.375” long, 0.5” wide, and 1.625” tall. Throw it in your pocket and use the tip-down pocket clip for easy access. Anyone can near guarantee that is one right tool for the job.

NDIA Chairman Punaro delivers statement on LaPlante nomination

News

NDIA statement on LaPlante nomination for A&S undersecretary

ARLINGTON, VA — Arnold Punaro, board chairman of the National Defense Industrial Association, offers the following statement on the Nov. 30 nomination of Dr. William LaPlante as undersecretary of Defense for acquisition and sustainment:

Today, President Joe Biden made the superb choice of nominating Dr. Bill LaPlante to be the undersecretary of Defense for acquisition and sustainment. LaPlante has a wealth of experience in government service and the responsibilities of this position. We urge his speedy confirmation.

LaPlante previously served in numerous Defense Department positions, including as the top acquisition official for the Air Force. His contributions to the Defense Science Board have been vital throughout the years. He has had a stellar career in the private sector at the MITRE Corporation and at Draper Laboratory. His decades of knowledge and experience will help him to push the Pentagon and industry to get more bang for the buck for our warfighters and taxpayers.

LaPlante will work well with Heidi Shyu, the undersecretary of Defense for research and engineering. It is essential that these two offices ensure emerging technologies are converted into usable systems for our warfighters in a timely and cost-effective manner.

LaPlante is well known to the Senate Armed Services Committee and should have no trouble with the confirmation process. The SASC has precedents for a thorough but accelerated consideration, and I urge the SASC and Senate to get him confirmed and on board before their Christmas recess.

The Senate should also work swiftly to confirm the other acquisition officials on the calendar: Andrew Hunter, Doug Bush and Gabe Camarillo. These positions are responsible for decisions related to the more than $400 billion the Defense Department spends each year on goods and services, supplies and equipment. Getting these well-qualified nominees in place is vital.”

Bluetooth 5.0 incorporates Bluetooth Low Energy, which translates to reduced power usage and longer battery life.

Easy-to-use Bluetooth controls are integrated right into the headset, and there are separate volume controls for both Bluetooth audio and the ambient sound entering the headphone via the external omni-directional microphones. That means wearers can stream Bluetooth audio into the headphones while also being able to hear what’s going on around them; both adjustable audio signals are controlled independently.=

Wearers of the new Impact Sport Bluetooth will enjoy the same comfortable fit, slim-profile earcups, four-hour auto shutoff feature, automatic attenuation of potentially dangerous noise over 82dB, and up to 4X amplification of ambient sound delivered by Impact Sport Classic. But the advantages don’t end with Bluetooth technology.

Impact Sport Bluetooth also delivers faster Sound-Activated Compression. A 0.5 millisecond reaction time means a more natural acoustic experience at the shooting range, or anytime attenuation of loud sounds over 82dB occurs.

Impact Sport Bluetooth features a powerful new, rechargeable Lithium Ion battery, which can be recharged in two hours and offers excellent life for a Bluetooth device – up to 20 hours of operation per charge, depending on the use of the headset’s features. Like all Howard Leight electronic earmuffs, Impact Sport Bluetooth comes with a four-hour auto-shutoff feature that remembers to turn your muffs off to preserve battery life when you forget.=

Individuality has always been a big part of the original Impact Sport’s appeal, and new Impact Sport Bluetooth recognizes this with a variety of all-new colors, a highly favored existing color, and two size options to serve the varying needs and tastes of any shooting sports enthusiast. “Growth within the shooting sports is increasingly diverse,” says Nancy Kufferman, Senior Offering Manager – Howard Leight. “We’re offering additional sizes and color choices across many of our lines to better serve the needs and preferences of these new participants, while also expanding options for seasoned participants,” Kufferman continues. “From women and youth to more specific applications such as hunting and tactical, Howard Leight is delivering more styles, more sizes, and more aesthetic choices in reliable, high-quality hearing protection.”

Medium/Large size Impact Sport Bluetooth electronic earmuffs are available in four colors, including an all-new Brushed Bronze earcup color with a unique, distressed brown headband; an all-new highly patriotic 2nd Amendment pattern; a stealthy new Flat Dark Earth color; and Howard Leight customer-favorite OD Green.

Designed for an improved fit on youth, most women, and men with smaller heads, the new Youth/Adult Small size Impact Sport Bluetooth electronic earmuff is available in 2nd Amendment, plus an all-new Metallic Rose Gold color.

By customer demand, the new Impact Sport Bluetooth electronic earmuff is also be offered in a special Impact Sport Bluetooth Promo Pack. This exciting SKU includes one pair of Impact Sport Bluetooth muffs in a one-off Metallic Charcoal Gray color along with a bonus set of gel ear cushions.

Introducing the New Ronin EMP – Now Shipping


Combining the popular features of the Ronin with the patented CCW-ready modifications that made the EMP the smallest 1911 in the world.

ronin-emp-hero-1

Springfield Armory® is proud to announce the newest addition to its award-winning family of 1911 pistols — the Ronin® EMP®. Combining the popular features of the Ronin Series with the patented CCW-ready modifications that made the Enhanced Micro Pistol (EMP) the smallest 1911 in the world, the result is a potent and packable EDC 1911 built specifically for the 9mm cartridge. The Ronin EMP is available in a 3”-barreled version with a 9+1 capacity, and a 4”-barreled version with a 10+1 capacity.

emp-size-3

Rather than simply shortening the barrel and slide like most compact 1911 pistols, the EMP also shortens the frame and action . In fact, the pistol features 11 proprietary parts distinct from a standard 1911 as a result of this adaptation. The end result is a pistol with a reduced grip radius for both enhanced comfort and concealability.​

REDESIGNED PARTS

Proprietary parts found on the EMP are the FRAME, SLIDE, FIRING PIN, FIRING PIN SPRING, EXTRACTOR, EJECTOR, TRIGGER, PLUNGER TUBE, PLUNGER TUBE ASSEMBLY, GRIPS & MAGAZINE.

Background Checks Top 687,000 During Black Friday ‘Week’

This year has already been shaping up to be the second strongest year for firearm sales on record, second only to 2020’s record-breaking number of 21 million background checks for a firearm sale.

November 29, 2021

Background Checks Top 687,000 During Black Friday ‘Week’

NEWTOWN, Conn. — The National Shooting Sports Foundation® (NSSF®), the firearm industry trade association, revealed that the FBI’s National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) processed 687,788 background checks during the week leading up to and including Black Friday. FBI’s NICS recorded 187,585 on Black Friday alone, ranking it among the Top 10 Highest Days for NICS checks and a .50 percent increase from Black Friday 2020 (186,645). The NICS checks are unadjusted, representing raw data from the FBI and are inclusive of all background checks related to firearms.

NSSF has worked with firearm retailers to spread out special sales offers to customers throughout the week leading up to Black Friday so as not to overwhelm FBI NICS on Black Friday which can result in longer than normal wait times.

“This figure of over 687,000 background checks is truly remarkable,” said Joe Bartozzi, NSSF President and CEO. “This year has already been shaping up to be the second strongest year for firearm sales on record, second only to 2020’s record-breaking number of 21 million background checks for a firearm sale. We anticipate, based on annual data, that firearm sales will rise during the final month of the year coinciding with hunting seasons and holiday sales. This figure, though, underscores the appetite for lawful firearm ownership in America and the resilience of the firearm and ammunition industry to meet that demand.”

Below are the breakout tables for each day of unadjusted FBI NICS background checks and The Top 10 Highest Days of FBI Background Checks.

Zeiss LRP S5, a New Elite Precision Optic. 40+ Mils Elevation.

MK Machining Review | Mkmachining.com Ratings & Customer Reviews – Nov '21

Kahles, Tangent, ZCO, meet your new competitor:

Zeiss LRP S5

It takes a lot to impress us…the LRP S5 did.

Zeiss LRP S5 3-18x Preorder

Zeiss LRP S5 5-25x Preorder

Preorders start at $3299.99
99% Off Audere Mounts/Rings
Complimentary Throw Lever, Scope Level, Caps & ARD
Delivery by end of 2021

What stood out to us?

After weeks of comparison to other top tier optics, here’s some thoughts:

Insane elevation travel.  Over 140MOA!
Excellent glass, giving up nothing to any optic

Glass is subjective.  Maybe you like the brightness of a Tangent or Schmidt, the contrast and saturation of a ZCO, etc.  The Zeiss has fantastic resolution and vibrant colors.  See pics below.

Perfectly tactile turrets, satisfying resistance with “More Tactile Clicks” every MIL.  Very easy to dial even without looking.
Bar none, the best illumination we’ve seen.  Blindingly bright if desired with very little bleed, and infinitely adjustable.  Pic below.
Big and beefy.  This is not a lightweight, hunting oriented optic.  It’s unapologetically large with every feature a pleasure to grasp and turn.

Anyone can say something is nice, let’s get to pics

2000 yard view at 25x, under spotty sun.  Notice the lack of an odd color mixing at the edge of trees and horizon.  This would be called “chromatic aberration” and you will find this to be noticeable on some optics well over $3000, however the Zeiss LRP S5 does a great job with hard color borders, and color reproduction.

650 yard view vs bovine.  Notice how the illuminated reticle is bright under spotty sun, the parallax is forgiving and the cattle trough several hundred yards in front is still crisp, and how the blue frame of the black trough stands out.

400 yards, bright sun, looking into a dark building.  Note once again the accurate color reproduction vs those outside the field-of-view, lack of chromatic aberration, and forgiving focus via objects in front and behind of the tin roof.

Rafael at EXPODEFENSA 2021

Rafael to Participate in EXPODEFENSA 2021

Some of the World’s Most Combat-Proven Systems to be on Display in Bogota

From November 29 – December 1, 2021, Rafael Advanced Defense Systems will participate in EXPODEFENSA 2021 in Bogota, Columbia. During the exhibition, Rafael will present a range of cutting-edge, combat proven elements of its advanced aerial defense array, aircraft solutions, and communications technologies. With an emphasis on assuring air-superiority Rafael’s showcase will include world-leading air-to-air and air-to-surface missile systems as well as reconnaissance and targeting pods like LITENING and RECCELITE which are among the several solutions already adopted by and successfully integrated onto operational platforms around the world.

Throughout the week, Rafael will also display the following array of systems:

SPYDER Air Defense System is a family of air defense systems incorporating Rafael’s advanced Python-5 and I-Derby missiles to provide short, medium, and long-range protection.

HELICOPTER ARMAMENT UPGRADE is an air-launched element of the SPIKE Missile Family that transforms helicopters into powerful force multipliers. This upgrade enables ultra-long stand-off ranges as well as enhanced lethality ‒ in a relatively lightweight package to extend mission endurance. Rafael is actively involved in upgrading the military services in the area which is clearly seen through the successful upgrade of the Columbian Arpia Helicopter.

ADVANCED WEAPONS STATION, Rafael’s SAMSON of Family of high-performance remote-control weapon stations (RWS) have been adapted worldwide to a broad range of tracked and wheeled platforms and accommodate diverse weapons, turret and sensors for customers.

BNET Software Defined Radio Family is a broadband IP-based software defined radio tactical communications suite with vehicular (BNET-V), man-pack (BNET-MP) and handheld (BNET-HH) variations, as well as aerial connectivity for aircraft (BNET-AR(. An industry leading comprehensive communications system, BNET ensures high-speed, low-delay, reliable connectivity for broadband data, voice, and video on the move in the VHF/UHF frequency bands. In October 2021, Rafael unveiled BNET Nano, a new variant small enough to fit within the palm of your hand.

SKYSPOTTER Passive Early Warning Solution employs highly sensitive Medium Wavelength Infrared (MWIR) and Short Wavelength Infrared (SWIR) and VIS sensors to enhance overall aerial situational awareness and defense, with a high probability of detection and a very low false alarm rate.

CYBER DOME, a multi-layered defense architecture designed for handling multi-classification information, operating with SCADA DOME, designed to protect Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition systems housing national and military infrastructures, are optimal solutions for critical infrastructure protection. Both systems are customizable to a customer’s individualized operational needs and challenges.

We look forward to hosting you at Stand 222 C

For additional information or to coordinate an interview surrounding the event, please contact Daniel Tsemach at DANIELT5@rafael.co.il.
