EXTREMA RATIO: SETHLANS

Posted on Monday, 19 October, 2020 by twobirdsflyingpub

Image

“EXTREMA RATIO SETHLANS” is a fixed blade work knife born to face a wide range of situations, suitable for survival, bushcraft, prepping, but also as a backup blade.

SETHLANS was designed in collaboration with Daniele Dal Canto, Master Advanced F.I.S.S.S. instructor (Italian Federation of Sports and Experimental Survival).

SETHLANS is available in two different versions with two different kinds of steel.

The stone washed version is produced with Böhler N690 heat treated at 58 HRC, chosen for the reliability it has demonstrated over the last 20 years due to its resistance to oxidation and durability of the edge.

The black version is produced in D2 steel, heat and cryogenically treated at 60 HRC, which presents an high resharpening capacity even with makeshift tools. In order to give greater qualities of hardness and resistance, the blade is coated with the new Teflon-based product “EXP DARK”, proposed by Extrema Ratio.

The knife comes with G10 grips that feature the ergonomic design characteristic of Extrema Ratio handles. They can be removed by releasing the skeletonized structure of the knife, that allows maximum lightness with minimum thickness. For lovers of extreme customization, the full-tang structure allows the handle to be covered with a paracord cord.

The sheath is composed of a part in very light and minimalist Kydex. It can be disassembled and can be adapted for both left and right handed users. The addition of an optional belt clip allows the knife to be positioned both vertically and horizontally and makes the sheath much more versatile than the textile version. It is also equipped with a mini pouch with M.O.L.L.E. system. containing a two-sided stone for sharpening and a firesteel for lighting fires.

The retail price of both Sethlans versions is € 395,00.

Winchester, the Official Ammunition of the SCTP International Team

Posted on Monday, 19 October, 2020 by twobirdsflyingpub

As the official ammunition of the Scholastic Clay Target Program (SCTP) and the SCTP International Team, Winchester is promoting the SCTP mission.

EAST ALTON, Ill. (October 16, 2020) — Winchester Ammunition is the champion in supporting the youth shooting sports. As the official ammunition of the Scholastic Clay Target Program (SCTP) and the SCTP International Team, Winchester is helping promote the SCTP mission and provide access to competitive shooting sports to thousands of young men and women around the country each year.
The new 2020-2021 SCTP International Team was decided this summer at the 2020 National Championship event and is listed below. These elite competitors distinguished themselves from their peers in the extremely challenging international events where targets are harder, faster and travel farther than those within American Trap and Skeet. Winchester congratulates the new International Team members and all those who participated in the competition.

  • Bunker Trap women:
      Aiko Coloso – Florida
      Taylor Dale – Wisconsin
      Sydney Krieger – Arizona
      Loretta Christian – Arizona
    Bunker Trap men:
      Logan Samson – Alaska
      Tristan Schroder – Michigan
      Matthew Killeen – Arizona
  • International Skeet women:
      Erin Lokke – Minnesota
      Sarah Schwacher – Wisconsin
      Phoebe Smith – Tennessee
      Madeline Corbin – Wisconsin
    International Skeet men:
      Zachary Maggard – Tennessee
      Josh Corbin – Wisconsin
      Preston Bailey – Missouri
      Jordan Sapp – Arizona

The SCTP will host the 2020 Bunker 300 October 16-18, an open International Trap competition at the Cardinal Shooting Center in Marengo, Ohio. The 2020-2021 SCTP International Team members will be on-site competing in the event against any SCTP challengers that care to test their mettle.
Participants use a AA® load specifically developed by Winchester for International Shooting Sport Federation rules that contains a lightweight 24-gram shot load that travels at 1325 fps. While most target loads contain 1 or 1-1/8 oz of shot, the lighter 24-gram load is intended to make international competition even more challenging while the high velocity is needed to connect on these fast-flying targets. Winchester SKUs for these items are as follows – Trap: AANL127 and Skeet: AANL129.
Winchester will be sharing some pictures and updates from the event on Facebook (@WinchesterOfficial), Instagram (@winchesterammunition) and Twitter (@winchester).

XS Sights Introduces New Ambassadors

Posted on Friday, 16 October, 2020 by twobirdsflyingpub

Jen Blake - XS Ambassador

Fort Worth, TX (October 15, 2020) – XS® Sights is proud to announce that Michelle Waldran and Jen Blake have been named XS Ambassadors.  As ambassadors, they will support the company’s social media efforts and help bring awareness to women about the importance of learning firearms safety and training for self-defense.

Born in Seoul, South Korea, Michelle Waldran now lives in Oklahoma and was first introduced to handguns at age 14 when visiting her uncle on summer break.  She is now a certified NRA pistol instructor, Council on Law Enforcement Education and Training (CLEET) handgun instructor, and Oklahoma Self-Defense Act instructor.  Waldran is also a member of Team Walther Arms.

“The more I learned over the years attending advanced concealment courses, the more aware I became that a minor detail such as sights can influence the outcome of a critical encounter,” said Waldran.  “After a lot of research, I ordered XS F8 Night Sights.  These made a world of difference in my target acquisition throughout various defensive shooting drills. Especially the one hand reload drill. The rear sight posts are rock solid and can be used to rack the slide one handed on any surface. Their tag line – The Fastest Sights in Any Light – is true. They are incredibly fast and much easier to see in day and night than standard sights. I’m proud to be an ambassador and help spread the word about the advantages XS Sights provide when it comes to self-defense.”Michelle Waldran - XS Ambassador

An avid participant in 3-Gun competitions, Jen Blake is a concealed carry instructor and appointed NRA Counselor who teaches and certifies students to become NRA Instructors in southern Ohio. She has traveled the country training women to use firearms safely and enjoys helping grow women participation in gun ownership whether for protection, hunting, or shooting sports.  Blake is the mother of two boys and understands the need to be responsibly armed.

“The most rewarding part of my job is helping families feel proficient with their shooting skills and giving them the confidence to feel safe knowing they can defend themselves,” said Blake.  “I am extremely excited to be an ambassador for XS Sights. They’re #1 in quick sight acquisition which is extremely important, especially in moments where every second counts.  I’ve also found while teaching, the unique design of XS Sights has been a very easy sight picture for new shooters to comprehend over other types of sights.”

Zack Kinsley, Marketing Manager for XS Sights, said, “We are delighted to have Michelle and Jen as XS Ambassadors and know their efforts will help us bring awareness to even more women about the importance of learning firearms safety and training for self-defense. These ladies embody the core behind our business. If your fundamentals are bad, great night sights or any sights for that matter won’t correct the problem. We will lean on them to drive home the drills and training for so many women, as they already do, and also help those shooters discover the XS brand benefits. These ladies are down to earth. You know where they stand, and we relate to and appreciate those qualities here at XS Sights.”

Viasat, AeroVironment Team to Develop Enhanced Type 1 Encrypted Communications Capabilities for U.S. Army Unmanned Aircraft Systems

Posted on Friday, 16 October, 2020 by twobirdsflyingpub

CARLSBAD, Calif. and SIMI VALLEY, Calif., Oct. 15, 2020 — Viasat Inc. (NASDAQ: VSAT), a global communications company, and AeroVironment, Inc. (NASDAQ: AVAV), a global leader in unmanned aircraft systems (UAS), today announced they will collaborate on a contract awarded under the U.S. Army Reconfigurable Communications for Small Unmanned Systems (RCSUS) initiative. The project will provide U.S. military customers flying small UAS platforms the ability to deploy a robust, on-demand, highly-secure communications network that will address the growing electronic warfare capabilities of peer and near-peer adversaries.

Viasat is the prime contractor on the award and will work with AeroVironment to develop and demonstrate advanced, encrypted communications suitable for AeroVironment’s portable, hand-launched Puma AE™ tactical UAS. The two companies will seek to strengthen the communications and transmission security of AeroVironment’s Digital Data Link™ (DDL) radios currently used by the U.S. Army by converting them into a Type 1 crypto communication system for video and data transmission.

In addition, Viasat and AeroVironment will develop critical interoperability standards for enabling UAS to generate a secure, digitally encrypted communications network—for protecting classified data and improving waveform performance in jamming environments—via the embedded DDL waveform. They will also create a standardized communications architecture that will allow UAS to access spectrum quickly and easily, especially when operating in contested environments.

“Viasat’s robust military-grade cryptography and electronic countermeasure tactical waveform design will enable quick expansion of secure communications to a variety of small unmanned systems operating at the tactical edge,” said Ken Peterman, president, Government Systems, Viasat. “By collaborating with AeroVironment, an established leader in the tactical UAS sector, we can help the U.S. Army set new waveform standards that maximize connectivity and minimize the risk of signal intercept.”

Currently, tens of thousands of AeroVironment tactical unmanned aircraft are deployed around the world and are capable of serving as secure, digital network communication nodes for on-demand, mesh network applications in various operating environments.

“As U.S. forces plan for the potential of operating against peer and near-peer military adversaries possessing advanced electronic warfare capabilities, the need for even more secure communication capabilities is rapidly increasing,” said Scott Newbern, AeroVironment chief technology officer. “We will work with Viasat to provide customers requiring enhanced, secure communication capabilities with a portable, practical solution for maintaining secret-level communications via tactical unmanned aircraft systems operating at the battlefield’s edge.”

About AeroVironment, Inc.

AeroVironment (NASDAQ: AVAV) provides technology solutions at the intersection of robotics, sensors, software analytics and connectivity that deliver more actionable intelligence so you can proceed with certainty. Celebrating 50 years of innovation, AeroVironment is a global leader in unmanned aircraft systems and tactical missile systems, and serves defense, government and commercial customers.

Diamond Age NeoSteel™ Tactical Helmet Accessories Now Available

Posted on Thursday, 15 October, 2020 by twobirdsflyingpub

The world’s toughest combat helmet just got even better with the addition of new accessories, and more to come.

McKinney, Texas (October 2020) – Texas-based, materials science and ballistics specialists, Diamond Age, unveiled the next generation steel NeoSteel™ Helmet in August, and now offer the first two helmet accessories, designed specifically for the NeoSteel Helmet.

The NeoSteel Helmet is a modular combat helmet produced using the most technologically advanced metal alloys resulting in a helmet that meets and exceeds VPAM-3 + Special Threats ballistic requirements. The design is based on the combat-proven M1 steel-pot helmet and is the evolutionary descendant featuring all-day comfort, balance, protection, and unlike the current K-pot polymer produced helmets today, will not degrade over time and weaken its protective capabilities.

The first two NeoSteel Helmet accessories available are the Combat Circlet and the Face Protector. The Combat Circlet is the ideal mounting platform for night vision gear (NVGs) and other head-worn accessories. Made from durable, glass-filled polymer and using the most advanced additive manufacturing techniques it is securely mounted to the NeoSteel Helmet by four retention-system holes on the helmet. The NVG bracket requires no additional drilling of holes into the front of the helmet and provides bungee cord ports for stabilization and retention. The M-LOK side rails accept accessories directly and can also be used as a platform for Picatinny adapters. The Combat Circlet’s vertical crest allows for additional stability and more accessory-mounting real estate. Future modules in development for the crest include applique blast protection and an applique ghillie module. The rear of the Combat Circlet features a tie-down bar for additional stability without using a counterweight. The Combat Circlet also allows for direct integration with the NeoSteel Helmet Face Protector.

The NeoSteel Ventail face protector offers the wearer an enhanced protection platform from ballistic threats. It covers the face, side of the head, and a portion of the anterior neck. It mounts easily and quickly to the helmet using the four retention system holes on the shell and protects from blunt impact, blast overpressure, and debris. The Ventail is also fully compatible with most ballistic glasses and offers an unconstrained field-of-view while being lighter in weight and tougher than traditional transparent ballistic visors.

“Unlike the composite helmets on the market today, the NeoSteel Helmet will serve the warfighter or LEO for years to come. Advances in steel technologies now enable a helmet that performs better than Kevlar or polyethylene composite helmets in many respects,” Diamond Age CEO, Jake Ganor, commented. “And a big plus for the wearer is that the helmet shell is largely incapable of deformation, so there’s a greatly reduced risk of behind helmet head trauma.”

For agencies concerned with “behind armor trauma,” in which the LEO or warfighter suffers from neck injuries due to the head acceleration from a ballistic hit, the NeoSteel Helmet spreads the kinetic energy load across the entire padding system protecting from any blunt impact injuries. Only the NeoSteel Helmet gives the wearer edge-to-edge protection with over 110 square inches of solid protection.

Diamond Age NeoSteel Helmet is now available in Black, Green, or Tan and in Medium or Large/Extra-Large for an MSRP starting at $195.00. The Combat Circlet is an additional $125.00 and the Ventail face protector is $187. Please allow anywhere from seven to fifteen weeks for helmets with accessories to ship.

Diamond Age is a materials science and engineering firm that focuses on research and development of leading-edge anti-ballistic armor systems for the military, law enforcement, private security, rescue, and responsible civilians. www.diamondage.org

Velocities of all-new Federal Premium HammerDown loads are customized to produce superior ballistics and terminal performance through lever-action barrel lengths. The construction of the molecularly bonded soft point bullets has also been adjusted for the best accuracy and expansion at those velocities. The geometry of each round’s case, bullet and cartridge ensures flawless cycling through tubular magazine and typical lever-action feeding systems. Available in the most popular lever-action cartridges, including 30-30 Win., 357 Magnum, 327 Federal and 44 Rem. Magnum. Additional cartridges will be added to the lineup in 2021.
Features & Benefits
• Specifically engineered for lever guns
• Functions flawlessly in side gate loading and tubular magazines
• Modified chamfered case for easier feeding
• Bullets optimized for better terminal performance out of lever-action rifles

Winchester Delivers Historic First Lake City Army Ammunition Plant Shipment in Support of the U.S. Warfighter

Posted on Thursday, 15 October, 2020 by twobirdsflyingpub

EAST ALTON, Ill. (October 14, 2020) — Winchester announces its first shipment of ammunition to the U.S. government left the Lake City Army Ammunition Plant yesterday.
Semitrailers filled with 50 caliber and 5.56 ammunition are bound for destinations around the globe in support of the U.S. Warfighter.
“This is an important milestone for Winchester, our first shipment to the U.S. government after just assuming management and operational control of Lake City,” said Brett Flaugher, president of Winchester. “Our ability to execute through this transition process and make our first delivery within two weeks is a testament to our dedicated work force.”
The U.S. Army selected Winchester to operate and manage the Lake City Army Ammunition Plant in September 2019. The contract has an initial term of seven years and may be extended by the U.S. Army for up to three additional years. Winchester is now the world’s largest small arms ammunition manufacturer.
Winchester is one of the world’s most recognized and respected brands. Currently in its 154th year of operation and 90th year as part of Olin, Winchester is a premier developer and manufacturer of small caliber ammunition for sale to domestic and international militaries, law enforcement agencies, and commercial distributors and retailers. Winchester has been providing ammunition to the U.S. military since World War I and is currently the U.S. Army’s largest supplier of small caliber ammunition outside of the Lake City plant.

About Lake City

The Lake City Army Ammunition Plant, which began production in 1941, provides small caliber military ammunition for both training and combat purposes. Winchester previously operated the Lake City plant from 1985-2000. The plant, encompassing nearly 4,000 acres, also serves as a national test center for ammunition performance and weapons firing.

Galco’s EDC Upgrade System!

Posted on Thursday, 15 October, 2020 by twobirdsflyingpub

Concealable Belt Holster

PHOENIX, October 2020
An Every Day Carry set-up isn’t just a holster, it’s a system. Galco has always advocated the integration of holster, ammo carrier and holster belt as the best method for comfortable and effective concealed carry. One example of this is the professional-grade, premium saddle leather Concealable system.
The Concealable™ holster is one of Galco’s most recognizable and innovative belt holsters. Its unique two-piece, forward-molded construction is contoured on the body side to the natural curve of the hip, for significantly more comfortable carry and a narrower profile than an ordinary pancake type holster. Deeply hand-molded by our craftsmen for excellent retention properties and superior appearance, it has full firing grip accessibility for speed, double-stitched seams for durability, and covered trigger for safety.
At least one reload should always be available. The holster’s companion, the Concealable Magazine Carrier, features ambidextrous, open-top design and holds a single spare magazine in the vertical position. Simple, fast, and easy to conceal!
Last, but certainly not least, the CB3 Contoured/Tapered Holster Belt is the ultimate concealed-carry belt. The contoured, gently-curved shape gives instant wearing comfort without a break-in period. The taper from 1 ½” to 1” at the buckle helps camouflage its true nature as a holster belt. The double thickness of leather makes it sturdy and rigid, supporting the weight of the heaviest of handguns all day long.

Concealable Belt Holster

Galco International, LTD is the designer and manufacturer of the Galco holster brand, the premier American-made line of superb-quality holsters, belts and accessories.

AeroVironment Secures $8.4 Million Puma 3 AE Unmanned Aircraft Systems Foreign Military Sales Contract Award for U.S. Ally

  • Puma 3 All Environment (AE) unmanned aircraft system delivers immediate tactical intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) in maritime and land operations

SIMI VALLEY, Calif., Oct. 13, 2020 – AeroVironment, Inc. (NASDAQ: AVAV), a global leader in unmanned aircraft systems (UAS), today announced it secured a $8,371,332 firm-fixed-price U.S. Department of Defense FMS contract award on September 25, 2020 for Puma™ 3 AE tactical UAS, training and support to an allied nation. Delivery is anticipated by March 2021.

“The United States Department of Defense and the defense forces of 50 allied nations around the world rely on AeroVironment’s family of tactical unmanned aircraft systems to protect and empower frontline troops in the harshest operating environments,” said Rick Pedigo, vice president of sales and business development at AeroVironment. “With an unmatched track record for reliability and effectiveness in combat, training and humanitarian operations, and a roadmap of continuous enhancement and innovation into the future, customers can rely on AeroVironment to proceed with certainty into any operational scenario.”

Richmond Campaign Targets Illegal Gun Purchases

Posted on Wednesday, 14 October, 2020 by twobirdsflyingpub

NSSF, ATF, DOJ Emphasize ‘Don’t Lie for the Other Guy’

NEWTOWN, Conn. – RICHMOND, Va. — As part of an ongoing national effort to help prevent illegal “straw” purchases of firearms, the National Shooting Sports Foundation® (NSSF®) and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) are reminding the Richmond public that stiff penalties are in place for individuals convicted of such unlawful purchases. The campaign is in its’ 20th year and is a cornerstone of the cooperative relationship of the firearm industry, law enforcement and retailers.

Billboard, radio, streaming audio and digital advertisements for the Don’t Lie for the Other GuyTM program have been purchased by NSSF in key locations throughout the region with the message: “Buy a gun for someone who can’t and buy yourself 10 years in jail. Don’t Lie for the Other Guy.”

The month-long public awareness campaign was officially launched today with a short program at Colonial Shooting Academy, in Richmond, Va. Present at the event were representatives of the ATF Washington, D.C. Field Division, the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Easter District of Virginia and NSSF.

More than 3.2 million impressions will be delivered via billboards, digital, and social media advertising and 30-second radio spots airing on local stations and streaming audio services. Richmond was chosen for this special campaign by ATF. No taxpayer dollars are used. The program is funded in full by the firearms industry.

“As evidenced today, the firearms industry is proud of its longstanding cooperative relationship with the ATF and the entire law enforcement community by assisting them in their efforts to combat the criminal acquisition and misuse of firearms,” said NSSF Lawrence G. Keane, NSSF Senior Vice President and General Counsel.

“Don’t Lie” is a cooperative program ATF and NSSF, the trade association for the firearms and ammunition industry. The effort was developed more than two decades ago to raise public awareness about the seriousness of the crime of purchasing a firearm for someone who cannot legally do so. The program also helps ATF educate firearms retailers to be better prepared to deter potential straw purchases. The public campaign drives home the message that anyone attempting an illegal firearm purchase faces a stiff federal felony penalty of up to 10 years in jail or up to $250,000 in fines.

To legally purchase a firearm, a person must be able to pass an FBI National Instant Criminal Background Check and fully comply with state and local laws. When a criminal knows he cannot pass this check, he may try to induce a friend or other person to make the purchase on his behalf, which is known as a straw purchase and is a felony.

This public awareness campaign constitutes only part of the Don’t Lie for the Other Guy outreach effort. The full Don’t Lie for the Other Guy program, which also involves educating firearms retailers to better detect and prevent straw purchases, has been rolled out in major cities throughout the country. In the retailer segment, federal firearms licensees are provided a Don’t Lie for the Other Guy retailer kit containing a training video and informational brochure for storeowners and staff, as well as point-of-purchase displays aimed to deter illegal straw purchases.

Learn more about Don’t Lie for the Other Guy at www.dontlie.org.

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.

In today’s rapidly changing battlefield, the combat helicopter still holds a central and important role. The combat helicopter is a valuable asset for the military commander both in defense and offence missions. Rafael is a leading supplier and integrator of a full armament upgrade package, including both 4th and 5th generation stand-off Precision Guided electro-optical (EO) Spike missiles with a range of 32 km, EO devices, Guided/unguided Rocket interface, Command & Control interfaces for pilot situation awareness, HMDs (Helmet-Mounted Displays for cueing of SPIKE Seeker and EOS to pilot head orientation) and even heliborne broadband Digital Data-link for continuous communication among the squadron helicopters.

The innovation that will bring the game-changing technological advantage to the battlefield will be the capability to turn separate systems into a single, fully integrated system, with all components operating simultaneously and in concert ‒ ensuring continuous battlefield superiority and combat overmatch. This will be demonstrated through Rafael’s integrated Samson 30mm Remote Weapon Station. Designed to mount a 30/40 mm gun and a coaxial 7.62 mm machine gun, Samson can be integrated into any modern, light-armored, high-mobility fighting vehicle ‒ new, existing, or upgraded ‒ including 8×8 Infantry Fighting Vehicles (IFVs). The integrated system offers a comprehensive suite that includes the Spike LR2, a 5th generation precision, long-range, electro-optical guided, multi-purpose, multi-platform missile system, the TROPHY Active Protection System with combat-proven protection against anti-armor rocket and missile threats, the Fire Weaver, an ultra-smart tactical, networked combat system with sophisticated autonomous capabilities that connects all types of sensors and shooters over any tactical radio in real time, to instantly and simultaneously performs targeting and optimal shooter selection for unlimited targets, closing sensor-to-shooter loops with precision strikes, the BNET, a next-generation ultra-high-speed broadband tactical, data/voice/video, software-defined on-the-move radio and the Firefly, a mini, portable, BLOS close-combat Loitering Munitions (LM) system that meets the challenges faced by ground forces in urban combat.

In September, Rafael began delivery of the first Iron Dome battery to the US. In August 2019 the United States and Israel signed an agreement for the procurement of two Iron Dome Defense System batteries. The first battery is being delivered in record time, and the second battery will be delivered in the near future within the framework of the agreement. These batteries will be employed in the defense of US troops against a variety of ballistic and aerial threats.

In August, Rafael and its partner Raytheon announced the signing of a joint venture to establish an Iron Dome Weapon System production facility in the United States. This will be the first Iron Dome all-up-round facility outside of Israel, and it will help the U.S. Department of Defense and allies across the globe obtain the system for defense of their service members and critical infrastructure.

Throughout the years, Rafael has signed numerous joint ventures with American companies for joint development, production and marketing of  air, land and marine systems. In fact, most of the systems listed above came to the U.S. military via partnership with major U.S. primes, including Boeing, General Dynamics, Lockheed Martin, Raytheon, and Leonardo DRS. Rafael plans to enhance its presence in the US by increasing the capability of existing subsidiaries (C4ATS, RSGS) and creating fully owned American companies.

Build Competency and Confidence with the Defensive Handgun Training Program from Mike Seeklander

Posted on Tuesday, 13 October, 2020 by twobirdsflyingpub

Whether you are a new gun owner or just need brushing up on your techniques and tactics, the Mike Seeklander “Your Defensive Handgun Training Program” is designed to help you train and develop the skills to survive a lethal encounter in a gunfight.

Owasso, Okla. (October 2020) – The National Shooting Sports Foundation reported that in the first half of 2020, two million new gun owners joined the ranks of firearms ownership. The growth stems from the public’s fear amid the coronavirus pandemic and subsequent rioting in many of the major cities across the Nation. With new gun ownership comes the realization that one may be required to use a firearm to protect property or life. Unfortunately, many firearms instructions do not prepare the new gun owner for the physical and psychological results of surviving a lethal encounter. Mike Seeklander, firearms instructor, founder, and CEO of Shooting-Performance and the American Warrior Society, has developed several programs to provide the right type of instruction for students of all levels, including the new gun owner.

“Your Defensive Handgun Training Program” is a digital download that includes:

  • 29 defensive handgun training videos
  • A comprehensive defensive handgun 300+ page manual in PDF format
  • Defensive handgun drills book in PDF format
  • A training log to keep track of progress
  • A visual training system PDF
  • And a handgun skills test

Purchases will include three bonuses:

  1. New Shooter Basic Handgun Video Series
  2. Home Defense – Search & Clearing Tactics
  3. Vehicle Defense Tactics

“When you engage in a gunfight, your training needs to kick in. Improper training or no training at all can result in catastrophic results,” Seeklander explained. “Your entire physical system goes into a fight or flight mode. Proper training will provide you with the skills to make positive decisions, even while you are undergoing physical duress. My course is based on my years of developing training programs and training police, military, and federal agency personnel on what happens during a lethal encounter, and how to survive it. I highly recommend any new gun owner who purchased their firearm for defense to get the training.”

Right now, Mike’s “Your Defensive Handgun Training Program” is on sale for $67.00. Regularly the digital downloadable training package is $129.00.

CCI Releases Maxi-Mag Clean-22 Segmented Hollow Point 22 WMR

Posted on Tuesday, 13 October, 2020 by twobirdsflyingpub

LEWISTON, Idaho – October 12, 2020 – The Clean-22 coating technology that made rimfire clean is now being used to extend the range and power of 22 WMR. New CCI Maxi-Mag Clean-22 Segmented Hollow Point (SHP) uses an exclusive polymer bullet coating to greatly reduce copper and lead fouling in the barrel—without leaving a residue. Shipments of this new product have begun to arrive at dealers.
The 46-grain SHP bullet splits into three equal-size pieces on impact, tripling the number of wound channels. The polymer bullet coating allows this separation at much lower velocities and longer distances than a conventional copper jacket. The bullet’s overall geometry is optimized for accuracy, and dependable CCI priming and propellant provide flawless cycling through semi-automatics and all 22 WMR firearms.
“New Maxi-Mag Clean-22 SHP is the industry’s only segmenting hollow-point bullet in 22 WMR.” said CCI Product Line Manager Dan Compton. “Personally, I like its Olive Drab Green color on the bullet which gives it a hunting look, and I can’t wait to hear stories and see photos from our happy customers who use this new magnum rimfire round on prairie dog towns, in the squirrel woods and for their fur trapping efforts.”
Features & Benefits
• The industry’s only segmenting hollow-point bullet in 22 WMR
• Polymer bullet coating greatly reduces lead fouling in the barrel without leaving residue
• Allows expansion at lower velocities than copper-jacketed bullets
• Reduces the risk of penetration through the target and beyond
• Optimized bullet geometry for improved accuracy
• 50-count box
Part No. / Description / MSRP
972CC / 22 WMR Maxi Mag Clean-22 SHP, 46-grain, 50-count / $18.99
https://www.cci-ammunition.com/rimfire/cci/maxi-mag/6-972CC.html
CCI recently launched a new website which includes a fresh look and design, and a mobile-first approach to meet the needs of today’s consumer. Plus, the new site offers customers the ability to purchase select loads of CCI rimfire ammunition, Blazer handgun ammunition, branded merchandise and more direct from CCI. CCI’s online shopping cart features free shipping on orders of $99 or more. For full details, go to http://www.cci-ammunition.com.

Galco’s Jackass Rig Shoulder Holster System!

Galco’s Jackass Rig Shoulder Holster System!

Jackass Rig Shoulder System

PHOENIX, October 2020
Galco’s predecessor, The Famous Jackass Leather Company, first introduced the Jackass Rig™ in the early 1970s. While it has changed and evolved in the decades since, it remains a great choice for any gun carrier who prefers a horizontally-oriented shoulder holster. One often-overlooked – but key – feature of the Jackass Rig is the ability to adjust it to a more butt-down and muzzle-up position. This often enables smaller-statured shooters to conceal bigger guns than a strictly horizontal holster.
The Jackass Rig’s magazine carrier has a streamlined yet secure design, carrying two spare magazines in a vertically-oriented position. The concealable, medium-width harness is made of comfortable Premium Center Cut Steerhide™ and quickly adjusts to fit virtually every body shape. All four points of the harness pivot independently and are connected by our trademarked clover-shaped Flexalon™ swivel back plate.
The Jackass Rig includes holster, harness, magazine carrier and a set of polymer harness fasteners. The Jackass Rig is fully modular, and optional accessories may be purchased separately. Made for a wide variety of semiautomatic pistols, the Jackass Rig is available in right and left hand draw in black finish.

Biden-Harris Would Weaponize ATF Against Firearm Retailers

Posted on Tuesday, 13 October, 2020 by twobirdsflyingpub

For immediate release | October 12, 2020

NEWTOWN, Conn. – NSSF®, the trade association for the firearm industry, is focusing on former Vice President Joe Biden’s radical antigun campaign promise turn the Bureau of Alcohol. Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) from its’ mission as the nation’s firearms regulatory bureau into a bludgeon to wield against firearm retailers to close off the means by which law-abiding Americans obtain firearms.

“The Biden-Harris ticket will weaponize the ATF against retailers to close them down for even minor clerical errors in inspections,” said Lawrence G. Keane, NSSF Senior Vice President and General Counsel. “This a promise Senator Kamala Harris made from the campaign stage. She has vowed to turn the ATF from an agency which assists family-owned firearm retail businesses to stay within the overwhelming labyrinth of federal and state laws and regulations to one that carries a heavy hammer and will shutter federally licensed retailers for minor administrative errors.”

“I will require that for any gun dealer that breaks the law, the ATF take their license,” said Sen. Harris in a 2019 presidential town hall event.

Currently, ATF Industry Operations Inspectors (IOI) conduct inspections of federally licensed firearm retailers to ensure compliance and educate retailers on firearm laws and regulations. It is common for IOIs to suggest improvements for minor violations to ensure compliance. Under the Biden-Harris plan, that would change from a teachable moment to improve administrative errors to one of license revocation. A single violation can be interpreted as breaking the law and the 1934 Gun Control Act allows ATF to revoke a federal firearm license for a single violation. Former Vice President Joe Biden agrees with this plan. He outlined on his campaign website his intent to restructure the ATF to become a constrictor on the lawful commerce of firearms.

The Biden-Harris campaign promises to return the ATF to what the nation experienced during the Obama-Biden administration when the bureau was embroiled in the ill-fated “Operation Fast and Furious” scandal that cost the life of U.S. Border Patrol Brian Terry. The ATF’s involvement was revealed to be under the direction of the Obama Administration’s Department of Justice when the bureau allowed illegally purchased firearms to cross the United States-Mexico border and failed to track them. Firearms from that bungled operation were recovered at crimes scenes on both side of the border, including a .50 caliber rifle recovered during the arrest of Mexican drug lord and cartel kingpin Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman.

Former Vice President Biden has perpetuated the false narrative that the Obama-Biden administration was scandal-free. Operation Fast and Furious is but one of many that never received a full accounting.

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.

Posted on Monday, 12 October, 2020 by twobirdsflyingpub

Four of Shell Tech’s sponsored shooters competed in the 2020 New Mexico Section Championship and 2020 North Texas Open over the weekend.

Shell Shock Technologies’ Sponsored Shooter Trevor Cotter competing.

Westport, Conn. (October 2020) – Shell Shock Technologies, LLC., an early-stage technology and manufacturing company focused on developing innovative case technologies for the ammunition industry, is pleased to announce a weekend of success for several of its sponsored shooters. Trevor Cotter, Albert Montanez, Chase Rains, and Garrett Schutz competed at the 2020 New Mexico Section Championship, held Oct. 2 – 3, 2020 in Clovis, New Mexico. These same shooters, minus Schutz, competed on Oct. 4, 2020, at the 2020 North Texas Open Sectional in Whitewright, Texas.

“I was blessed with a successful weekend, coming away with a championship and a top performance. Part of that success is confidence in my equipment. With Shell Shock Technologies’ NAS3 9mm cases I know my ammo is going to run flawlessly no matter what conditions I’m faced with. That’s why I put my trust in Shell Shock Technologies,” commented Cotter.

Cotter, Rains, and Schutz can be seen competing next at the 2020 USPSA National Championship, to be held Oct. 18 – 25, 2020 in Frostproof, Florida. Montanez has completed his 2020 competitive shooting season.

About Shell Shock Technologies NAS3 Cases:

NAS3 9mm cases are 50 percent lighter than brass cases, offer greater lubricity and will not abrade, clog, foul, wear-out, or damage breach and ejector mechanisms. The cases offer greater corrosion resistance, tensile strength (2x stronger) and elasticity than brass. NAS3 cases will not split, chip, crack or grow (stretch) and are fully reloadable (using S3 Reload dies) and can be reloaded many more times than brass cases. NAS3 cases have been tested successfully by customers to pressures over 70k psi. NAS3 cases can be picked up with a magnet. The head can be colored for branding purposes and easy load identification.

NAS3 is “Best in Class” for maintaining consistent velocity between rounds. In an independent test performed by H.P. White Laboratory (a major munitions testing facility), rounds fired using NAS3 cases achieved a velocity standard deviation of 0.093 FPS (124-grain FMJ bullet, 4.2 grains Titegroup powder, 10 rounds, extreme variation 3fps).
