Greeley, CO – December 8, 2025 – Steiner Optics, a global leader in precision optics for military, law enforcement, and outdoor enthusiasts, proudly announces the launch and immediate availability of the ATLAS (Advanced Tactical Laser Aiming System). Engineered as a next-generation solution for dynamic operational environments, the ATLAS sets a new standard for versatility, performance, and ergonomic design in rifle-mounted aiming systems.
The ATLAS is now available to military units, law enforcement agencies, professional security teams, and the consumer market. It is designed from the ground up to provide superior target engagement capability across all distances, from close-quarters battle (CQB) to extended-range precision.
The core of the ATLAS’s groundbreaking performance is its five-emitter architecture. This system seamlessly integrates multiple functions that previously required separate, bulkier devices, offering a complete aiming and illumination package in a single, compact unit. The five emitters include:
Visible Laser Pointer: For rapid, daylight aiming and signaling.
Near-Infrared (NIR) Laser Pointer: For covert aiming under night vision devices (NODs).
Long-Range VCSEL Illuminator: A powerful, narrow-beam illuminator (2°–3° divergence) with minimum speckle for identifying targets at great distances.
Mid-Range NIR LED Illuminator: A wider beam (10°–15° divergence) for balanced situational awareness in medium-range environments.
Short-Range NIR LED Illuminator: An ultra-wide beam (40°–50° divergence) for unparalleled illumination during CQB operations.
A key feature for simplifying the operational workflow is the Single Adjuster Zeroing. All aiming lasers and the long-range VCSEL illuminator are factory co-aligned, allowing operators to zero all critical emitters using just a single set of windage and elevation adjusters. This ensures fast, reliable zeroing and consistent co-alignment retention, saving critical time in the field.
Steiner has paid meticulous attention to user interface and weapon integration. The ATLAS boasts best-in-class ergonomics, including an ultra-low-profile integrated mount that minimizes the unit’s height above the rail. This low footprint ensures seamless compatibility and reduced visual obstruction when running the ATLAS with standard Low Power Variable Optics (LPVOs).
All controls are fully ambidextrous and designed for intuitive, decisive operation—even while wearing gloves. The unit features a five-position mode switch and three large, tactile activation buttons for fire, power selection, and illuminator selection. Operators can quickly adapt to mission requirements using three power output settings—high, medium, and low—which adjust the intensity of the illumination and laser beams.
Constructed from lightweight, yet rugged, magnesium alloy, the ATLAS is built to withstand the harshest environmental conditions while maintaining a compact form factor, weighing in at less than 200g (7oz).
The Steiner ATLAS is a leap forward in eOptics, delivering unmatched versatility and performance that solidifies Steiner’s commitment to providing trusted optics for life’s defining moments. The ATLAS has an MSRP starting at $4,024.99.

We’re proud to introduce two exceptional Korth revolvers, each finished in a never-before-seen Bronze PVD that adds warmth, depth, and timeless character to an already legendary platform. Both .357 Magnum revolvers feature 5.25″ barrels, are fully machined from solid steel billet, and utilize Korth’s high-polished roller trigger system for exceptionally smooth single- and double-action shooting.
Korth Mongoose
The Korth Mongoose takes on a striking new presence in Bronze PVD. Its flowing lines and balanced proportions subtly reference one of the most iconic revolver silhouettes ever created, reinterpreted through Korth’s precision-driven design. The result is a revolver that feels modern, refined, and exceptionally shootable.
Korth Heritage
The elusive Korth Heritage Edition returns in Bronze PVD, emphasizing refined craftsmanship through classic details. A shorter underlug gives the Heritage a lighter, more traditional profile.
A fully adjustable rear sight pairs with an 18k gold bead front sight for fast, confident target acquisition. Distinguishing the Heritage further is a gold Korth inlay, replacing standard laser etching with a more elegant, hand-finished touch. Turkish walnut grips with a classic contour complete the revolver’s enduring character.

PWS Elevates Suppression: Modular, 3D-Printed BDE Line with Hub-Standard Mounting
![]()
Boise, ID (December 15, 2025) – The arrival of additive manufacturing has reshaped modern production, allowing designers to create lighter, more consistent components without compromising strength. Primary Weapons Systems (PWS) is applying that capability to suppression with the BDE family of suppressors—pairing traditional baffle architecture with the precision of Direct Metal Fusion 3D printing. The result is a line of modular, lightweight suppressors engineered for durability, repeatable performance, and seamless integration across modern weapon platforms.
Welcome to the era of BDE 3D-printed suppressors from Primary Weapons Systems. Leveraging Direct Metal Fusion technology, PWS produces components with exceptional consistency, structural integrity, and weight efficiency while maintaining trusted, traditional baffle designs. This manufacturing approach enhances durability and ensures tight tolerances throughout the suppressor body.
The BDE series utilizes aerospace-grade titanium for the baffle core and features a hard PVD exterior coating for increased wear resistance. Modularity sits at the center of the design: each BDE model features a serialized entrance chamber and removable titanium baffle sections, allowing users to configure the overall length, weight, and back pressure to match the suppressor’s intended caliber category. Rather than a single model spanning multiple weapon classes, each suppressor within the BDE line is purpose-built for its designated caliber range and can be adjusted within that class for optimal performance.
The BDE line emphasizes real-world durability and thermal management. Symmetrical external shapes and heat-dissipating textures help reduce mirage and minimize point-of-impact shift. Taper-threaded baffles and precision alignment notches facilitate assembly, minimize carbon locking, and prolong maintenance intervals. Hub-standard mounting ensures compatibility with existing systems: larger BDE models feature a universal 1.375×24 TPI pattern, and PWS offers multiple piston, mount, and caliber-specific thread options across the line.
Construction and performance priorities include a Direct Metal Fusion 3D-printed aerospace-grade titanium baffle core with modular sections, a rugged PVD exterior finish, taper-threaded internal alignment features to streamline maintenance, and a low back-pressure design intended to support reliable weapon function.

NSSF Launches New First Shots Introductory Course on Suppressors
SHELTON, Conn. — NSSF®, The Firearm Industry Trade Association, is pleased to announce the addition of a new First Shots® introductory course on suppressors. The suppressor segment has surged in recent years and is primed for additional growth with the impending removal of the $200 tax stamp Jan. 1, 2026 — making it a valuable time to come on board as a First Shots host and help customers advance their shooting sports journey.
This new offering is ideal for ranges and retailers looking to enhance their educational offerings and further engage customers, while attracting new ones eager to participate in this category.
“Rising interest in suppressor ownership, coupled with the imminent removal of the $200 tax stamp, present a timely opportunity for First Shots partners to begin hosting these experiences in their communities,” said Zach Snow, NSSF Director, Member Development. “We developed this First Shots model to give ranges and retailers another tool to help increase customer engagement through a new educational offering.”
Through this First Shots experience, range and retail hosts will be equipped to discuss the history of suppressors, highlight their benefits, dispel myths and walk participants through the steps to ownership in the 42 U.S. states where legal. Students will gain knowledge through classroom instruction, followed by hands-on experience with live demonstrations.
Businesses interested in hosting these events will provide qualified instructors and staff with thorough suppressor knowledge, classroom access and range access for practical demonstrations. Hosts who elect to offer enhanced shooting range experiences for their students will supply the necessary equipment such as firearms, suppressors and additional ammunition.
To support First Shots hosts, NSSF will provide eye and ear protection, targets, ammunition packages for the range demo component and monetary support of $15 per participant, paid quarterly. Further, hosts will receive support through the First Shots Digital Resource Portal, which includes the presentation deck, email templates, promotional flyers and more. Scheduled events will also be promoted on LetsGoShooting.org and additional advertising support will be available.
“At the end of the day, we want this new course to help increase participation while guiding people down the path to suppressor ownership — giving them a general knowledge base to determine what type of suppressor suits their needs, how to use them safely, their benefits and how they can enhance the overall target shooting experience,” Snow said.
To learn more or to sign up as a host, contact Ann Gamauf at agamauf@nssf.org or Zach Snow at zsnow@nssf.org. For more information on this new First Shots offering, visit the Intro to Suppressors page on the NSSF website.

Hobie Eyewear Returns to January Surf Expo 2026 with New Product Launches and Expanded Sustainable Collection

Oceanside, CA (12/15/25) – Hobie® Eyewear announces its return to Surf Expo this January, where the brand will unveil new product introductions that build on its proven momentum in performance, innovation, and sustainability. Exhibiting in booth 207, Hobie® Eyewear will welcome retailers and industry partners to explore key launches and take advantage of exclusive show specials available to attending buyers.
Leading the brand’s Surf Expo 2026 showcase is the expansion of its upcycled Hobie® kayak plastic sunglasses into a new lifestyle floating frame style. Following the strong success of the original Hull Float frame, this latest addition advances Hobie® Eyewear’s eco-friendly design initiative by transforming excess Hobie® kayak plastic into high-performance floating eyewear. Each frame helps divert plastic from landfills while delivering lightweight comfort, reliable buoyancy, and polarized lens performance designed for life on the water. A portion of sales from the collection is donated to the FishAmerica Foundation to support habitat restoration and healthier waterways nationwide.
“The response to our upcycled kayak plastic frames has exceeded expectations,” said Darren Goldman, Vice President at Hobie® Eyewear. “That success gave us the confidence to expand the collection into a more lifestyle-driven frame that still stays true to our water-focused DNA. We see this as an opportunity to elevate eco-friendly eyewear within the category and further influence the surf industry as we continue supporting sustainability anywhere and everywhere we can.”
Hobie® Eyewear expands its sustainability story with a second floating frame made from upcycled Hobie® kayak plastic, delivering polarized performance while supporting habitat restoration through donations to the FishAmerica Foundation.
Also debuting at the show is Hobie® Eyewear’s new ANSI-rated eyewear line. Designed with durability, protection, and comfort in mind, this collection extends the brand into job site and active lifestyle environments while maintaining its signature clarity and optical performance.
Additionally, Hobie Eyewear will introduce its first dedicated line of readers. Built for everyday convenience on and off the water, the collection blends timeless styling with premium lens quality, offering consumers functional eyewear that fits seamlessly into an active coastal lifestyle.
Surf Expo attendees can experience the full collection at booth 207, where the Hobie® Eyewear team will be on site to highlight new products, discuss merchandising strategies, and share the sustainable initiatives introduced over the past year.

Chiappa Unveils the New Rhino 60DS L-Frame in .44 Magnum with Three Distinct Finishes
![]()
Dayton, OH (December 12, 2025) – Chiappa Firearms will open 2026 with the introduction of a new L-Frame Rhino chambered in .44 Remington Magnum, a platform expansion that brings the Rhino’s well-known low-bore recoil characteristics into a larger, purpose-built magnum revolver.
The .44 Magnum 60DS lineup will be available in three finishes: Black, White Nickel, and Gold PVD. This expansion of the Rhino line delivers the full mechanical advantages of the updated L-Frame architecture while remaining accessible to a broad range of shooters and collectors.
Built around the Rhino’s trademark bottom-chamber firing geometry, the new .44 Magnum 60DS reduces muzzle rise and straightens recoil impulse, a decisive advantage when moving a high-pressure cartridge through a revolver platform. The enlarged L-Frame introduces updated ergonomics, including twin finger stops and a revised grip interface for improved leverage and repeatable hand placement. Despite the larger chambering, the frame maintains Chiappa’s characteristic balance between strength and weight using a 7075-T6 aluminum frame paired with a steel barrel and breech shield.
All three standard finishes share the same mechanical core and configuration. Each model uses a 6-inch barrel, fiber-optic sights (fixed front, fully adjustable rear), a double/single-action system, and a six-round cylinder. A comprehensive safety suite, comprising a cylinder block, rotation lock, and hammer block, is carried over from prior Rhino generations. Although each finish provides a distinct visual identity, the underlying platform remains a purpose-driven .44 Magnum revolver designed for stability, controllability, and repeatable performance.
The Rhino 60DS L-Frame weighs 2.92 lbs, measures 11 inches in overall length, and ships with Hogue rubber grips for improved recoil management. Each revolver is packaged in Chiappa’s hard case and includes the standard owner’s kit and Rhino sticker.

“Weekends like this matter more than people realize.”
That’s how this Special Forces spouse described her experience at the Trust’s Mettle & Moxie.
She said something simple, but powerful:
“This weekend gave us time — real time — to break away and breathe again.”
She shared how the resources provided through Mettle & Moxie help her and her family reconnect intentionally:
Guided conversations that helped them open up
Activities designed to rebuild closeness
Support that reminded them they weren’t alone
Space to step out of survival mode and into true connection
What stood out most in her testimonial was how she described the impact:
“We were able to recharge, rebuild, rejuvenate… and even respark what felt worn down.”
For many families in the Regiment, these weekends are more than a retreat — they’re a reset button. A moment to reclaim what service demands of them year after year.
She ended her message speaking not just for herself, but for countless SF families:
“Programs like this are essential.
They give us the time we lose, the tools we need, and the reminder that our community matters.”
Your support makes these weekends possible — giving families the opportunity to reconnect, restore, and return home stronger together.
On average, it costs the Trust around $2500 for a family of four to attend a Mettle & Moxie event. Will you help support a family to attend and strengthen the families who strengthen the Regiment? Donate today. Text “SFT2025” to 50155.

NSSF Supports OCC Ripping Back Veil of Banking Discrimination

WASHINGTON, D.C. — NSSF®, The Firearm Industry Trade Association, is encouraged and supports the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency’s (OCC) preliminary findings after reviewing large banks’ debanking activities. The OCC report revealed what the firearm industry has known, and experienced, for years. Large banks systematically “made inappropriate distinctions” of lawful businesses, including those against firearm-related businesses, to restrict access to banking services.
In short, large banks including JPMorgan Chase Bank, Bank of America, Citibank, Wells Fargo Bank, U.S. Bank, Capital One, PNC Bank, TD Bank and BMO Bank, unlawfully discriminated against certain industries, including the firearm industry, for political reasons. This practice is unlawful and is demonstrative of corporate banks exercising an antigun agenda to deprive, starve out and eliminate firearm businesses despite the fact they lawfully produce and sell a constitutionally-protected product to law-abiding citizens. NSSF revealed that JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon was untruthful when he claimed his bank doesn’t discriminate for political reasons and has repeatedly exposed unlawful debanking activities.
“NSSF is encouraged that the Trump administration, through the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, is exercising its regulatory authority to protect industries from unlawful banking discrimination,” said Lawrence G. Keane, NSSF Senior Vice President & General Counsel. “Eliminating banking discrimination was a focus of the first Trump administration, which was stymied by Biden administration’s antigun agenda. We are hopeful that this preliminary report is only the beginning of ending this unscrupulous practice of weaponizing finance and ensuring banks aren’t used as to advance extremist policies that have been rejected by Congress.”
The OCC’s preliminary findings established that the firearm industry was a target of unlawful debanking, along with other industries that were politically disfavored by banks, including oil and gas exploration, coal mining and digital assets, among others.
The OCC’s report specifically stated:
About NSSF
