RAFAEL AT DX KOREA 2020

Rafael's BNet SDR (1)



Rafael to showcase Next-Generation Combat Vehicle Suite for increased lethality, maneuverability and situational awareness

November 16, 2020 – Rafael Advanced Defense Systems Ltd. is participating in DX Defense & Security Expo Korea at KINTEX Hall 9, 10 Hall, November 18-21, 2020.

For over 70 years, Rafael has pioneered advances in defense, cyber and security solutions for air, land, sea, and space, and is one of the world’s leading providers of solutions to meet today’s complex battlespace challenges. The company’s holistic, combat-proven solutions – which are deployed by the Israel Defense Forces as well as by numerous users around the world ‒ are based on extensive operational experience, understanding of evolving combat requirements, and deep, mission-critical know-how.

As part of the ROK’s Tiger 4.0 program, Rafael’s suite for future combat vehicles is taking center stage this year at the company’s display. Based on its extensive experience, and responding to demands from the field ‒ including the need for combat vehicles to move as quickly and securely as MBTs in today’s complex and saturated battlefields ‒ Rafael is offering a Next-Generation Combat Vehicle Suite – NGCV-S – which offers integrated protection, lethality, situational awareness and network for enhanced mission effectiveness, even in GPS-denied scenarios, combining a mix of the most advanced, innovative and effective solutions available ‒ all developed by Rafael.

Rafael’s NGCV-S has an open, modular architecture, that consists of a 30/40mm automatic cannon with ABM capability, a launcher for SPIKE anti-tank multi-purpose guided missiles, advanced armor protection, including TROPHY, the world’s only operational active protection system, the Fire Weaver networked combat system with sophisticated autonomous capabilities that connects all types of sensors and shooters over any tactical radio in real time, the Spike FireFly miniature, portable, BLOS close-combat reconnaissance and loitering munition, the BNet SDR communication system and more.

Another central capability will be Rafael’s Spike ER2 (10km) and NLOS (32km), tactical, electro-optical, multi-platform, multi-purpose missiles, addressing the global trend of helicopter platform conversion from utility to assault, as well as platform upgrades. 33,000 Spike missiles have been sold around the world, with 35 customers and over 6,000 missiles fired in combat and in training.

On display will also be the BNET patented communication system, supporting simultaneous and robust data, voice & video services with multiple auto relays. Bnet is an advanced Broadband IP MANET (Mobile Ad-hoc NETwork) Software Defined Radio for tactical operations. With a patented technology – modular, multi-band and multi-channel, BNET is a net-centric, spectrum aware, system for vehicular and airborne platforms, headquarters, and dismounted soldiers. BNET enables all radios of land, sea and air units to participate in a single, seamless, scalable MANET network. This enables a network rate of 100Mbps, while facilitating the formation of a single “flat” network, scaling up to thousands of radios.

In the air defense realm, Rafael will showcase its air defense systems, including the the Drone Dome counter-drone system, already operational in a number of countries around the world both in civilian in military applications. Boosting air defense capabilities and on display at DX Korea will be the SkySpotter, a passive electro-optical Early Warning System with a high probability of detection and a very low false alarm rate, enhancing the capability of air defense radar detection systems.

We invite you to visit us at booth 10B-41.

I WAS WRONG ABOUT THE RONIN 10MM

More isn’t always better. In fact, there’s often a point of diminishing returns. From my naive viewpoint, I’ve always kind of looked at the 10mm round that way. It was just too much of a good thing. Too long, too loud, too powerful, too much recoil. I mean, any cartridge that the FBI drops because it’s too hard to shoot probably isn’t my cup of tea.

    Savage Arms RENEGAUGE Wins Guns & Ammo Shotgun of the Year

    2020-Shotgun-of-year-renegaugeWESTFIELD, 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.

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.

    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.

    DO YOU NEED TO REGISTER YOUR DJI MAVIC MINI DRONE?

    Which countries and regions allow to fly the 249g DJI Mavic Mini? |  GearBest Blog

    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.

    20201114_163152

    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.

    20201114_163351

    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!

    Ironhide Belt Holster

    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.”
    Federal Ammunition is a sponsor of the USPSA, and Syntech Action Pistol is the official sponsored ammo of the organization, with their logo on the box. Learn more about the USPSA at http://www.uspsa.org.

    Bushnell® and RCBS® Pro Brantley Takes Second Place at AG Cup

    Image

    BrantleyAGCUP2020

    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.

The premise of this award is to recognize ‘unsung heroes’ who are selfless in devoting their time and ability to engage women in the outdoor lifestyle while building their confidence and teaching them important skills.”

    Anstine has volunteered as an instructor at the WOMA’s annual She Never Quit charity event for 5 years, “We also want to recognize that she’s involved as a volunteer for other organizations on local, state and national levels” said Landis. “Mia embodies the generous and passionate spirit required to guide women with a desire to learn more about the outdoors on a journey of self-discovery and success. We’re thrilled to have her on our team and delighted to recognize her dedication by presenting her with our WOMA Founder’s Award.” Landis added.

    “It is an honor to receive recognition for my volunteer work and devotion to education,” said Anstine. “While a ‘thank you’ is not necessary, it sure does feel good. I hope this award inspires others to step up and volunteer in the outdoor industry so they too can recognize the fulfillment that comes along with teaching others how special the shooting, hunting, fishing, and outdoor lifestyle is,” she said.

    The WOMA Founder’s Award recognizes Anstine’s work at WOMA events as well as her continual contributions via her own company, MAC Outdoors, plus her efforts with the Colorado Sportsman’s Roundtable, Safari Club International, the DC Project, and the many other outreach endeavors she participates in. “Mia is a mentor and has the ability to do it all with patience and a smile; she has made a profound impact on women’s lives,” said Landis.

Her work has been featured on television, radio, in newspapers, and magazines. As an engaging speaker, commentator, and instructor, Anstine has been featured in numerous interviews.

    Choate Machine and Tool manufactures a variety of light and accessory mounting options for shotguns, including the Night Manager.  The Night Manager is a magazine tube extension with an aluminum shroud that is drilled and tapped along the bottom and sides for mounting Picatinny rail sections.  Its unique design allows the shroud to orient the attached Picatinny rails where needed and then uses an AR-15 castle nut to lock it in the desired location.  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.

    Stock Options
    Whether you want to upgrade from wood to the durability of polymer, or are looking for a different configuration entirely, Choate Machine and Tool has stocks to meet every need including folding stocks, less-lethal designated orange stocks, stocks that carry extra ammunition and others.  Adding a folding or telescoping stock can be a fantastic upgrade for any home defense shotgun, making it easier to store or easier to adjust for clothing, body armor or the stature of the shooter.

    Let Us Help
    Choate Machine and Tool is happy to help with any shotgun (or rifle) project or coverage you may be working on.  Shotgun upgrades will also be a fantastic addition to any holiday gift guide.  For more information or sample requests please contact Matt Foster at FMJ Marketing.

    SAUER Introduces Ultralight S101 Highland XTC Carbon-Fiber Rifle

    image003

    Sauer 101 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
