Savage Arms RENEGAUGE Wins Guns & Ammo Shotgun of the Year
WESTFIELD, Massachusetts – November 16, 2020 – Savage Arms is proud to announce that RENEGAUGE has been selected as the Shotgun of the Year by Guns & Ammo Magazine. The American made 12 gauge semiautomatic was chosen for the award by the editors, contributors, and staff of the magazine.
“We’re humbled by this award,” said Beth Shimanski, Director of Marketing at Savage Arms. “The competition in 2020 was fierce. We knew when we began working on RENEGAUGE that we had to make a shotgun that was worthy of the Savage name, and RENEGAUGE is it. The DRIV system allows RENEGAUGE to cycle anything, and its stock can be adjusted to provide users a tailored fit. Guns & Ammo’s award is a welcome validation of Savage’s commitment to quality and innovation.”
“SAVAGE RENEGAUGE elevated the brand to a higher level in 2020, and proved that it’s not just a company that makes rifles,” Guns & Ammo’s editors noted. “Especially looking to attract turkey hunters and waterfowlers, Savage Arms challenged its engineers to design a reliable operating system that would feed 2 3/4-and 3-inch loads. The result was the Dual Regulating Inline Valve (DRIV) system, which is
a short-stroke piston system having two regulating valves on either side of the barrel where excess gas is vented through radial ports.
“During Guns & Ammo’s evaluation, we determined that Savage Arms succeeded in producing a shotgun that yields exceptional accuracy and mild recoil,” they added. “Dressed in black or popular hard-use camouflage coverings, the Renegauge is an American-made gun that still offers value in line with foreign competitors.”
The Shotgun of the Year award is a testament to RENEGAUGE’s success, and exceptional news for Savage. Guns are currently in stock at dealers across the country.
RENEGAUGE is currently available in three configurations:
RENEGAUGE Field: For an all-around work horse that can go anywhere and cycle anything, nothing beats RENEGAUGE Field.
RENEGAUGE Waterfowl: With its Mossy Oak Shadow Grass Blades pattern and 28” barrel, this RENEGAUGE is ideal for duck season.
RENEGAUGE Turkey: Turkey hunters will appreciate the extra concealment offered by this RENEGAUGE’s Mossy Oak Bottomland camo and the maneuverability of its 24” barrel.

NSSF Releases Most Recent Firearm Production and Import/Export Figures
For immediate release | November 16, 2020
NSSF Releases Most Recent Firearm Production Figures
Nearly 20 million Modern Sporting Rifles in Circulation
NEWTOWN, Conn. – NSSF®, the firearm industry’s trade association, released the 2020 edition of its Firearm Production Report to members. The report compiles the most up to date information based on data sourced from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives’ (ATF’s) Annual Firearms Manufacturing and Export Reports (AFMER) as well as the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC). Key findings for public release showed:
-
In 2018, 11.4 million total firearms were produced or imported in the United States (less exported firearms).
-
Approximately one-half (48%) of all rifles produced and imported (less exports) in 2018 were Modern Sporting Rifles.
-
Since 1990, there are an estimated 19.8 million Modern Sporting Rifles (MSRs) in circulation today.
-
An interim 2019 estimate showed a total of 6 million total firearms were produced in the United States. Of those, 3.6 million were pistols and revolvers, 2 million were rifles and 480,000 were shotguns. Those are interim figures that will be updated when complete reports become available from the ATF.
-
In 2019, there were approximately 3.3 million firearms imported into the United States which included 2.3 million pistols and revolvers, 301,000 rifles and 678,000 shotguns.
-
From 1991 to 2019, nearly 214 million firearms have been made available to the U.S. market.
-
According to reports such as: ATF Firearms Commerce in the United States, ATF AFMER and Congressional Research Service data, there are an estimated 434 million firearms in civilian possession in the United States.
-
There are approximately 71.2 million pistol magazines capable of holding more than 10 rounds, and 79.2 million rifle magazines capable of holding 30 or more rounds in circulation.
-
Firearm and ammunition manufacturing accounted for nearly 12,000 employees producing over $3.9 billion in goods shipped in 2018. An estimated 8.7 billion rounds of all calibers and gauges were produced in 2018 for the U.S. market.
“These figures, combined with the record-breaking 17.2 million NSSF-adjusted background checks for the sale or transfer of a firearm in the first ten months of 2020, demonstrates that Americans have a strong desire to continue purchasing firearms for lawful purposes,” said Joe Bartozzi, NSSF’s President and CEO. “The Modern Sporting Rifle continues to be the most popular rifle sold in America today, and with nearly 20 million in circulation, is clearly a commonly-owned firearm that is being used for lawful purposes every day in America. The continued popularity of handguns demonstrates a strong interest by Americans to protect themselves, their family and homes, as well as to participate in the recreational shooting sports.”
Today’s report also shows that as lawful firearm ownership in America continues to grow, criminal and unintentional misuse of firearms is falling. During the 28-year period covered by this report (1991–2018) the violent crime rate has decreased by 51.3 percent and unintentional firearm-related fatalities have declined by 68.2 percent.
About NSSF
NSSF is the trade association for the firearm industry. Its mission is to promote, protect and preserve hunting and the shooting sports. Formed in 1961, NSSF has a membership of thousands of manufacturers, distributors, firearms retailers, shooting ranges, sportsmen’s organizations and publishers nationwide.

Revision Accelerates Production to Deliver Thousands of Laser Protective Eyewear to Law Enforcement Officers Around the Country
Revision Accelerates Production to Deliver Thousands of Laser Protective Eyewear to Law Enforcement Officers Around the Country, Preventing Eye Injuries
ESSEX JUNCTION, VERMONT (November 13, 2020) – Revision Military has ramped up production and successfully delivered thousands of ballistic laser protective lenses to law enforcement around the United States. After an initial rapid delivery to the Department of Homeland Security, Revision received a dramatic increase of inquiries from Federal, State, and Local departments, and Individual Officers seeking protection from this emerging threat. Since July, reported incidents of laser attacks on law enforcement have skyrocketed around the nation leading to a variety of eye effects and injuries, including reports of partial blindness. While handheld lasers aren’t new, their widespread use with intent to harm is increasing, just as is the demand for laser protective eyewear to prevent these eye effects and injuries.
Revision has been at the forefront of laser and ballistic protective eyewear solutions for the past decade. Standard laser protective lenses are widely available, but much rarer are lenses that combine tailored laser protection as well as military-standard ballistic protection coupled with world-class anti-fog performance, integrated prescription correction and multiple sizes for optimal fit and comfort. Revision’s LazrBloc™ eyewear provides this comprehensive solution – battle-proven by military forces around the globe and now widely being delivered to Law Enforcement around the nation.
One Federal Agent shared the following quote after receiving Revision LazrBloc eyewear: “After several fellow Federal LE Agents were blinded a few weeks ago at a demonstration, we knew we needed something to protect us. We looked at Revision and trusted the information received. Upon receipt, we were sent to a massive demonstration and had our new Revision Laser eyewear. I had lasers panning in my face for hours, and no one on the front lines with me were injured. I’ll never go without them.”
“It’s been incredible to watch our team rise to the occasion to respond to the urgent demand from the Law Enforcement community”, said Revision CEO, Amy Coyne. “We have an incredibly talented and dedicated team, and there was no hesitation throughout the organization to dig deep and deliver eyewear to help prevent injury and blindness to our men and women in uniform. Its times like these that we benefit from a vertically integrated operation, were we design, develop, test and manufacture protective eyewear at scale in our own facility.”
Recently Revision celebrated the one year anniversary of new ownership with ASGARD Partners & Co and Merit Capital In the last year, Revision welcomed new CEO Amy Coyne, successfully completed the carve out from former parent company, stayed open and operational throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, and celebrated record 3rd Quarter performance. Now 100% owned and operated in the USA, the Revision team is centrally located in Essex Junction, Vermont. The focus on eyewear is already leading to growth in new markets, development of new products and technology, and the team is more united, impassioned and dedicated than ever.
To learn more about Revision’s LazrBloc product offering, visit www.revisionmilitary.com. Military and Law Enforcement discounts are available.
Above: Revision LazrBloc™ FT-2 kits being assembled on November 10 at Revision’s facility in Essex Junction, Vermont. Lenses are molded, coated and fully assembled at this facility.

DO YOU NEED TO REGISTER YOUR DJI MAVIC MINI DRONE?
Drones are in vogue and this Christmas shopping season is no different. One of the top sellers for 2020 is projected to be DJI Mavic Mini and Mavic Mini 2. The performance of these tiny drones is just short of astonishing. Video and picture quality are excellent. The Mavic Mini 2 offers 4k video capability and a number of flight control enhancements. Part of their popularity is their size and meager 249 gram takeoff weight. FAA 14CFR Part 107 establishes a registration requirement for drones in the range of 0.55lbs to 55lbs. Weight as defined by the FAA under Part 107 includes any payload. The Mavic Mini’s takeoff weight comes in 0.548951 lbs. (249g) so technically you are under 0.55 lbs. But, lets take a closer look.
This Mavic Mini’s take off weight is 8.66 oz. or 0.54125 lbs.; it’s equipped with a battery and microSD card. It’s clearly under the 0.55 lbs. lower limit but watch what happens when you add propeller guards.
It now weighs 10.35 oz. which translates to 0.646875 lbs. You are now well within the .55lb to 55lbs range and must register your drome with the FAA. As you weigh you course of action, keep in mind that when adding any accessory to the Mavic Mini you’re likely to cross the 0.55 lb. lower limit. Some of those accessories include camera lens filters and there’s more to come. In closing, my recommendation is that you register your Mavic Mini so you can enjoy its considerable features.
To register your drone visit:
https://faadronezone.faa.gov/#/home
Fly safe and stay out of controlled airspace unless you are a licensed Remote Pilot.
Happy Holidays!

Galco’s WheelGunner & Ironhide Belt Holsters!
Galco’s WheelGunner & Ironhide Belt Holsters!
PHOENIX, November 2020
Galco’s extremely versatile WheelGunner™ and Ironhide™ belt holsters offer ambidextrous design as well as quick on-off capability. Suitable for casual concealment and outdoor sportsman’s carry, they both carry a large handgun high and close to the body.
The WheelGunner secures a large revolver with a combination of hand molding and an adjustable hammer thong. Simply slip the hammer thong off and the gun is cleared for a fast, smooth draw.
The Ironhide secures a semiautomatic pistol with a combination of hand molding and a reversible retention strap with a glove-friendly polymer tab. Release the strap and the pistol is cleared for a fast, smooth draw. The retention strap accommodates both hammer-down and cocked-and-locked carry on 1911-type pistols.
Both designs allow right or left hand carry by unsnapping the holster from the belt slide, moving the belt slide to the opposite side of the body, reversing the retention strap (on the Ironhide), and reattaching the holster. Leaving the belt slide attached to the belt, the holster body can also be quickly detached, should the carrier need to enter a “non-permissive environment” and temporarily store the holstered handgun.
Constructed of premium steerhide, both holsters fit belts up to 1 3/4”.

Team Federal Sponsored Competitive Shooter Tim Herron
ANOKA, Minnesota – November 12, 2020 – Federal Ammunition sponsored shooter Tim Herron won the Single Stack Division at the United States Practical Shooting Association (USPSA) Area 2 Championship. The match was held in Prescott, Arizona, November 5-8 at the beautiful Yavapai Recreation League and Prescott Action Shooters facility.
“I’m very pleased with a solid performance at this match, and I credit the smooth-running Federal American Eagle 45 Auto, 230-grain. It certainly helped me secure this big win with its exceptional accuracy and superb reliability,” said Herron. “I want to thank Federal for their continued overall support of the shooting sports and for the several years of supporting of me. I couldn’t do this without you.”
“We at Federal congratulate Tim on a great victory! He is a fierce competitor and a perfect example of the type of person we want representing Team Federal,” said Federal’s Shooting Sports Promotions Manager Jason Spradling. “There were twelve challenging courses of fire at this match, with everything from long-distance, 50-yard steel targets to multiple moving and activated targets. Earning the single-stack division win in such a difficult match against a group of top competitors is a huge accomplishment. We’re glad that Federal ammo could be part of the winning equation.”

Bushnell® and RCBS® Pro Brantley Takes Second Place at AG Cup
Elite Tactical Riflescope and Ammo on the Money for Shooting Pro
OVERLAND PARK, Kan. – November 12, 2020 – Bushnell® and RCBS® congratulate Robert Brantley on his runner-up finish at the prestigious AG Cup held October 30 – November 1. Competing against many of the best precision rifle shooters in the world, Brantley utilized products from Bushnell and RCBS to help him claim 2nd place and take home $10,000.
An invitation-only Precision Rifle Series (PRS) event, the AG Cup placed 50 of the best long-range competitors in a 3-day event with over $90,000 in prize money up for grabs. In this head-to-head style competition, competitors had to place at the top of the field each day in order to make it to the final cut of only 12 competitors. After finishing in 21st place after day one, Brantley slowly ascended the ranks on the second day of competition securing his spot in the finale.
“Making it to the AG Cup was a goal I had set at the beginning of the year as soon as I had heard about the series,” said Brantley. “Driving across the country to the regional qualifying matches was the easy part as I knew I had the gear to get ready and the confidence knowing it would be true once I got there. Throughout my run, the RCBS equipment made accurate reloading quick and easy plus I knew my Bushnell Elite Tactical scope would always be on point.”
Robert continued, “After making all the cuts and entering into the third day of the match, I knew it was up to me to make it happen. I had tons of confidence thanks to the support of my team and sponsors, so it was an incredible feeling to be able to finish the match in 2nd place.”
Using his Bushnell Elite Tactical XRS II 4.5-30×50 and numerous reloading products from RCBS, Brantley has finished at the top of his class in numerous matches throughout the 2020 season. His consistent performance has secured him a spot in the PRS Series Finale taking place December 12-13 in Ninnekah, Oklahoma.
Armageddon Gear teamed with the PRS to create the AG Cup Series, which consisted of eight designated qualifier matches. Scores taken from the AG Cup Series were used to determine who would be invited to the final match, the AG Cup. The AG Cup was hosted by the Arena Training Facility in Blakely, Georgia.

Mounting accessories on the magazine tube extension allows use of the full length of the shotgun’s forend, which often can be short on law enforcement models. Currently the Night Manager is available for the Remington 870, 1100, 11-87 and also for the H&R Pardner pumps and Hawk 982. For Mossberg shotguns the Night Manager is available for the 500 (no extra shell capacity) 590, 835, 5500 and the 9200 shotguns.

SAUER Introduces Ultralight S101 Highland XTC Carbon-Fiber Rifle
San Antonio, Texas (November 10, 2020) – J. P. Sauer & Sohn, Germany’s oldest manufacturer of hunting firearms, is pleased to introduce the ultralight S101 Highland XTC carbon-fiber rifle. Weighing just 5.4 lbs. in the .308 Win version, this highly accurate bolt-action rifle is ideal for strenuous hunts when every ounce counts.
The S101 features a hand-laid, carbon-fiber stock with advanced recoil absorbing properties. The barrel is fluted and threaded for additional weight reduction and cold-hammer forged for guaranteed precision of less than one MOA at 100 yards. The barrel and receiver also feature Sauer’s Diamond-Like-Carbon (DLC) surface for maximum corrosion protection.
“The DLC layer is 40 times thinner than a human hair while offering key advantages such as superior surface hardness and maximum rust protection and wear resistance,” said Jason Evans, CEO, Blaser Group. “Many advances were made in the production of the Highland XTC, and it now holds the record as Sauer’s lightest rifle ever.”
Additional features include superb balance, a crisp match-grade trigger, fluted bolt, and Sauer’s Dura Safe direct firing pin safety which operates as an ergonomic slide on the bolt shroud for enhanced safety and optimum operation. The Highland XTC consistently delivers precision and accuracy even under the most extreme climate conditions.
The Sauer S101 Highland XTC carbon-fiber rifle is available in all current calibers in the S101 series and, depending on the caliber, in barrel lengths from 20-inches to 22-inches.
MSRP: $3,000

The Man with No Name Partners Up with Tuco and Angel Eyes for Buried Gold
The Man with No Name® Partners Up with TucoTM and Angel EyesTM for Buried Gold
Two new revolvers from Cimarron Firearms arrive to complete “The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly” gun trilogy.
Fredericksburg, Texas (November 2020) – Cimarron Firearms, recognized as the leader in quality and authenticity in Old West replica firearms, announce the arrival of The Man with No Name’s notorious partners, Tuco and Angel Eyes.
“Our Hollywood movie replicas have always been a favorite for Cimarron fans and our 1851 Man with No Name Conversion Revolver, designed after the gun carried by Clint Eastwood in ‘The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly’ has been a big seller,” VP of Retail Operations, Bryce Wayt, said. “We knew we needed to complete the trilogy by introducing replicas based on the guns carried by that fast-talking Mexican bandit, Tuco, and that cold-blooded mercenary, Angel Eyes.”
The 1966 movie, “The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly,” THE Spaghetti Western directed by Sergio Leone and filmed in Italy and Spain, depicted the violent clashes of three gunslingers brought together by circumstance and the lure of buried Confederate gold. The action takes place during the American Civil War, specifically during the New Mexico Campaign of 1862.
Tuco Benedicto Pacifico Juan Maria Ramirez, known as Tuco in the film, was played by actor Eli Wallach. At the beginning of the film, Tuco configures his gun by assembling parts from various other guns in a shop. Cimarron Firearms designed and Uberti manufactured, the “TucoTM” is a faithful reproduction of the one created in the movie. The Tuco is a conversion revolver in 45 Colt with a Leech and Rigdon-style 7.5” barrel with a loading level. It is finished in a cold case-hardened blue with a brass trigger guard and grip frame with a smooth wood grip and white lanyard ring.
Lee Van Cleef played the steely-eyed contract killer named “Angel Eyes” by Clint Eastwood’s character “Blondie” after proving to be quite a marksman with his revolver. Cimarron Firearms team carefully studied the gun carried by Angel Eyes to have Pietta produce a gun the mercenary Angel Eyes would be proud to carry. The 1858 Remington-style, single-action, black powder revolver is available in .44 with an 8” barrel cold case-hardened with a brass trigger guard and grip frame, smooth wood grip, and Angel Eyes engraving on the frame.
For fans of the ultimate Eastwood Spaghetti Western, the TucoTM and Angel EyesTM will complete a collection that will be the envy of any Hollywood film enthusiast.

New 350 Legend Items Available Now From Browning® Ammunition
Arnold, Mo., (November 10, 2020) – In 2019, a new “Legend” was born: 350 Legend, a caliber that proudly claims to wield more power than the famous .30-30 and less recoil than a .243 Winchester. Better still, it is available at a surprisingly low price and is compliant for hunting in states that only allow straight-walled centerfire cartridges. But that’s not all. This caliber is also uniquely suited for use across multiple firearm platforms.
Many hunters and recreational shooters alike were immediately excited by the potential of this newcomer. After its first year on the market, it is clearly living up to its Legend namesake, and consumers are fervently jumping on the bandwagon.
Not one to be left behind, Browning® Ammunition is proud to announce that their 350 Legend offerings are now available. The year 2020 brings two new options to 350 Legend fans with the introduction of an FMJ and BXR Deer load. Unique in the marketplace, this FMJ weighs in at only 124 grains and will be the fastest straight-walled cartridge in the world at a blazing muzzle velocity of 2500 fps (when fired from a 20-inch barrel).
The newly developed 350 Legend BXR Deer bullet is a 155-grain rapid expansion design that maximizes energy transfer on impact for quick and effective terminal performance.
“Browning is all about innovation and superior engineering,” said Ben Frank, Browning Ammunition brand manager. “This new caliber’s list of superlatives represents a rare achievement in a crowded ammunition space, and it’s something that we want to be a part of and add our own spin on.”
About Browning Ammunition
The Browning Ammunition portfolio includes popular ammunition offerings in rifle, shotgun, handgun and rimfire, featuring advanced technologies for hunters and shooters. Products are designed to the highest standards of innovation, precision and technology.

XS Sights Renames RAM Sights to R3D Night Sights and Introduces New Line Extensions
Fort Worth, TX (November 9, 2020) – XS® Sights is changing the name of its popular 3-Dot RAM Night Sights to R3D Night Sights due to a trademark issue. The name change is effective immediately. XS is also pleased to introduce R3D Suppressor Height sights for Glock pistols.
“We always like to be smart with our resources and lengthy litigation wasn’t the way to go,” said Zack Kinsley, Marketing Manager for XS Sights. “To our support channel, please know it will not affect our forward momentum. We are excited to announce the new suppressor height line extensions for popular LE and aftermarket pistols, and we plan to continue with the R3D product line full speed ahead.”
The radioactive material night sights have a traditional 3-dot tritium and notch and post sight picture. The rear sight is blacked out to increase contrast against the front sight which is available in bright orange or green. XS’s proprietary Ember™ Glow Dot technology allows the front sight to absorb ambient light and glow in low light. The front tritium lamp in the R3D sight also charges the Ember Glow Dot, making the front sight glow brighter than the rear, keeping one’s focus down range.
Other advantages of the R3D Night Sight:
-
The brightly colored Ember Glow Dot in the front sight is a much brighter color which differentiates the front dot from the two rear dots.
-
The notch is 15% wider than the front sight, allowing more visible light around the front sight. This makes it easier to see the front sight in changing light conditions and when shooting on the move, aiding in sight alignment, and increasing accuracy.
R3D Night Sights are CNC machined from bar-stock steel and treated with a rust-preventative coating making them extremely durable and reliable additions to your firearm. The R3D sights fit standard holster options and are designed for simple installation by hand or with a sight pusher tool.
R3D Night Sights offer end users many ways to install their own sight sets including file to fit, the gunsmith way, budget methods, or by sight pusher tools.
Find out why the Members of the NTOA gave the R3D Night Sights a gold ranking for 2020.
All XS Sights are backed by a 10-year, No Questions Asked Warranty and XS’s 30-Day Satisfaction Guarantee.

About XS Sights
XS Sights is known for making the fastest sights in any light. For more than 20 years, the XS team has created some of the most innovative sights on the market today for pistols, rifles, and shotguns.

TANGO6T Riflescope Selected by U.S. DOD for Direct View Optic (DVO)
SIG SAUER TANGO6T Riflescope Selected by U.S. Department of Defense for Direct View Optic (DVO)
NEWINGTON, N.H., (November 9, 2020) – SIG SAUER, Inc. is proud to announce the TANGO6T has been selected by the U.S. Department of Defense for the Direct View Optic (DVO) in response to a solicitation to enhance squad performance with a variable powered riflescope. Unlike older generation non-magnified or fixed-magnification optics, the TANGO6T is a 1-6X variable-magnification riflescope that enables the soldier to engage both close quarter targets and targets at extended ranges.
This award from the U.S. DoD is the third award for the SIG SAUER TANGO6T; previously selections for the TANGO6T include the Squad Designated Marksman Rifle (SDMR) and the USSOCOM Squad-Variable Powered Scope (S-VPS). The TANGO6T riflescope is currently in use with the U.S. Army Squad Designated Marksman and U.S. Military Special Forces.
“After rigorous and stringent testing, where the best of the industry competed, we are proud to confirm the SIG SAUER TANGO6T riflescope has been selected by the U.S. Army as the Direct View Optic,” began Ron Cohen, President and CEO, SIG SAUER, Inc. “This is a three-peat for the TANGO6T as the riflescope continues to prove it will withstand the rigors of U.S. military testing making it the choice for use with our soldiers. The further proliferation of the riflescope into the U.S. Military’s M4A1 operating system is an exciting achievement for SIG SAUER Electro-Optics and further proof that the TANGO6T is the direction of the future.”
The TANGO6T 1-6×24 DVO riflescope will be used on M4A1 carbines and is a first focal plane ruggedized riflescope with a Flat Dark Earth (FDE) anodized aircraft grade aluminum main tube. The riflescope features the DWLR6 reticle capable of providing range estimation and wind holds at extreme distances, the advanced HELLFIRE illumination system for fast target acquisition, a locking illumination dial, Power Selector Ring (PSR) Throw Lever, the ALPHA4 ultralight mount, and a laser-marked scope level indicator for intuitive installation.
“The TANGO6T riflescope platform has been ruggedized and battle-hardened over the course of both the SDMR and S-VPS programs,” added Andy York, President, SIG SAUER Electro-Optics. “We are proud to assemble the TANGO6T here in the USA to support our warfighters with a variable powered riflescope that was developed to match the engagement requirements of today’s battlefield.”
The SIG SAUER TANGO6T 1-6x24MM riflescope is available commercially at local retailers and at sigsauer.com, in first and second plane, and varying reticles including 5.56/7.62 Horseshoe Dot, HELLFIRE MOA Milling, HELLFIRE FL-6 and the new DWLR6.
“This award solidifies the TANGO6T as the premier riflescope of the U.S. military as it continues to exceed the highest standards for ruggedization, range, and accuracy throughout testing protocols, and in the field with our soldiers. We are honored to partner with the U.S. Department of Defense as they continue to modernize their weapons systems and look forward to the continued proliferation of the TANGO6T amongst our fighting forces,” concluded Cohen.
All SIG SAUER TANGO6 riflescopes are designed and assembled in the USA at the state-of-the-art, ISO-certified, SIG SAUER Electro-Optics facility in Wilsonville, Oregon.

Deputy Secretary David Norquist, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Mark Milley and most key Pentagon military and civilian senior leaders remain in place to ensure continuity of effort within the Department of Defense.

Executive branch transitions are complex, and their smooth execution is vital to our democracy, especially when national security matters are at stake. We look forward to working with acting Secretary of Defense Chris Miller and fostering bipartisan support for a smooth DoD transition for our warfighters, the men and women of the defense industrial base, and ultimately, our nation.
