Shell Shock Technologies’ NAS3 Casings Used in Liberty Ammunition’s New Ultra-Lights

Liberty Ammunition’s new Ultra-Lights, featuring Shell Shock Technologies’ casings, are 52 percent lighter than standard 125 grain 9mm lead jacketed hollow-points.


Westport, Conn. (December 2019)
Shell Shock Technologies, LLC., an early-stage technology and manufacturing company focused on developing innovative case technologies for the ammunition industry, announces that Liberty Ammunition has introduced its Ultra-Lights round featuring Shell Shock Technologies’ revolutionary NAS3 casings.

The new Liberty Ammunition Ultra-Lights are the Civil Defense rounds taken one step further. Liberty Ammunition’s innovative projectiles have been added to Shell Shock Technologies’ groundbreaking NAS3 casings. The 9mm Ultra-Lights total cartridge weighs only 93 grains, and is 52 percent lighter than standard 125 grain 9mm lead jacketed hollow-points.

“We are truly excited and proud to have our cutting-edge casings be a part of Liberty Ammunition’s innovative new Ultra-Light round,” said Craig Knight, CEO of Shell Shock Technologies.

Ultra-Lights Ballistic Performance:

  • Total Cartridge Weight: 93 Grains
  • Projectile Weight: 50 Grains
  • Velocity: > 2,000 feet per second
  • Kinetic Energy: > 450 ft. lbs.
  • Permanent Cavity: 3 ½” W x 10-13” D
  • Accuracy: < 1” at 25 meters

Liberty Ammunition’s Ultra-Lights projectiles are copper monolithic with nickel plating and are turned on a precision CNC machine for consistency and accuracy. They are lightweight, extremely fast projectiles, with a large diameter deep hollow-point cavity.

Our ammo penetrates barriers well, but when this cavity fills with soft tissue/liquid, the hydraulic pressure explodes the side walls of the projectile in a starburst-shaped pattern creating a devastating wound with multiple channels that cover a much greater area inside the target. Combined with Shell Shock Technologies’ two-piece cases, the new Ultra-Lights are the ultimate self-defense round.

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. NAS3cases 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).

Founded in Westport, Connecticut, in 2015, Shell Shock Technologies, LLC is an early stage technology and manufacturing company focused on developing innovative case technologies for the ammunition industry.

Team Bushnell Finishes Season Strong at 2019 Australasia Championship

Team Bushnell Australasialowres

Pro Shooter KC Eusebio Places 1st Overall in Production Optics Light Division

OVERLAND PARK, Kansas – December 17, 2019 – Team Bushnell shooters put an exclamation mark on the end of the 2019 season, bringing home top place finishes at the 2019 IPSC Australasia Handgun Championship. Competing overseas in the last match of the season, team members KC Eusebio and Jessie Harrison traveled to Lipa City, Batangas, where they tested their shooting skills against a field of over a thousand competitors from the around the world. In the end, Eusebio finished 1st Overall in the Production Optics Light Division while fellow teammate Harrison placed 3rd Overall in the Ladies Open Division, both using the Bushnell First Strike 2.0.

Held every three years, the 2019 Australasia Championship featured four days of competition across 24 unique stages of fire. Rated as Level 4 match due to its high degree of difficulty and number of stages, this year’s championship was considered by many to be one of the most challenging international competitions outside of the World Shooting Championship.

Eusebio, who competed in and won during his last trip to the Australasia Championship in 2013, agreed that this year’s match was one of the toughest matches he’s participated in during his 24 years of competitive shooting.

“While this was one of the best international matches that I’ve competed in, the degree of difficulty each stage presented combined with the physical exhaustion that you experience with multiple days of intercontinental travel, it certainly pushed me to the limits,” said Eusebio. “Despite those challenges, I was very pleased with how I performed as it’s always a special feeling to claim another Australasia Handgun Championship title.”

A hometown favorite, Eusebio especially enjoyed the reception he received from the local spectators. “The Filipino culture is extremely gun friendly,” commented Eusebio. “This match certainly had a hometown feel to me and it means a lot that I was able to perform at such a high level on a world stage.”

Competing in the Production Optics Light Division with his Bushnell First Strike 2.0, Eusebio outpaced the field of competitors, utilizing the red dot to gain a competitive edge against an array of over 50 moving targets and other staged obstacles.

Meanwhile, teammate and Hoppe’s pro shooter Jessie Harrison also utilized the FS2 to bring home a bronze medal in the Ladies Open Division. Competing in the Australasia Championship for the first time, Harrison had nothing but compliments on the match.

“From the breathtaking opening ceremonies to the extremely accommodating ROs and match staff, this is certainly a match that I intend to shoot again,” said Harrison. “Enough can’t be said about all the individual efforts that went into hosting a match of this magnitude. It was in a way southern hospitality at its finest and I can’t wait to come back in 2022.”

Cimarron Firearms Pays Tribute to The War Between the States with The Blue and The Gray Series of Commemorative Pistols

Cimarron’s The Blue and The Gray limited series of revolvers are detailed replicas of the originals used by the officers and soldiers during the Civil War.

Rare photo of Confederate and Union Soldier together. Courtesy of the Library of Congress.

Fredericksburg, Texas (December 2019) –  Cimarron Firearms, a leader in authentic reproduction firearms in the tradition of America’s Old West frontier guns, honors the soldiers on both sides of one of the darkest times in our Nation’s history, the Civil War, with a limited series of replica revolvers in The Blue and The Gray Series.

“There is no denying that this period of American history continues to be controversial,” Bryce Wayt, VP of operations and media for Cimarron Firearms, explained. “The Blue and The Gray Series are highly collectible, beautifully made replicas of the revolvers that made their way onto our country’s battlefields. This is Cimarron’s way to not only pay tribute to the brave soldiers on both sides, but to honor the continued freedom enjoyed by all American citizens as a result of that bloody war.”

Five revolvers are featured in The Blue and The Gray limited series. Representing the North is the 1860 Army .44, the 1860 Richards Transition Model® conversion .45 LC., and the 1860 “Grants Gun” 8”, .44 with it’s beautiful laser engraving. For the South, Cimarron offers the Leech & Rigdon CSA in .36 and the 1851 Richards Mason® Conversion in .38 Special.

Both North and South revolvers feature a finely rendered version in pure silver of the Old Glory Flag or the CSA Stars and Bars Battle Flag inlaid into the grips. The flag inlay was hand-carved from a block of micarta knife handle material by the legendary grip carver and maker Paul Persinger of El Paso, Texas. Champe Jennings, Cimarron’s fine jeweler in Fredericksburg, Texas, made the molds and cast the inlays in the pure silver for each revolver.

Cimarron is recognized as the leader in quality and authenticity in replica firearms. For the past 35 years, Cimarron has worked continuously to perfect the authentic detail, fit, finish and function of our line of frontier firearms.

About Big Horn Armory:

Big Horn Armory was founded in 2008 with the expressed intention of designing a Browning-type lever-action gun chambered in 500 Smith & Wesson Magnum. The Big Horn Armory Model 89, made in America, closely follows the work of John Browning with refinements courtesy of modern metallurgy and machining capabilities. The first rifles began shipping in September of 2012 and since then, BHA has added to their big bore lineup with a Model 90 Carbine in 460 S&W, the Model 90A in 454 Casull, the Model 90B in .45 Colt, the Model 89A in 500 Linebaugh and the Model 89B in .475 Linebaugh. In 2017, Big Horn Armory took a departure from its lever-action series and developed the AR500 Auto Max, the most powerful short-range, semi-auto based on an AR .308 platform.

INDRA “THE FCAS WILL MEAN A GIANT LEAP IN COMPETITIVENESS ACROSS SPANISH INDUSTRY AS A WHOLE”

· The program makes the whole sector face the challenge of developing – from the earliest stages – a cluster of dual nature technologies which will reach the market in the upcoming decades

· Indra, as FCAS coordinator, calls for transparency and cohesion in tackling a program which will demand the capability and talent of all companies and research organizations

· Indra believes that the government has been able to identify the tremendous development opportunity that the program meant for the country, and that they have shown great determination by joining it during its earliest stages

Madrid, December 13th 2019.- “The FCAS program will entail a tremendous development opportunity for the Spanish industry, and it will consolidate the sector’s position in the competitive arena introduced by the new Europe with its focus on Defence.” This was the message that Indra, as industrial coordinator of the program, conveyed to the research organizations and companies which had attended the work meeting convened by the Centre for the Development of Industrial Technology (CDTI) this Friday.

During his speech, the FCAS program director at Indra, Manuel Rodríguez Cerezo, explained that the program means a “considerable fast-tracking and will have tremendous impact in new dual-nature technology development – which can be marketed to both the military and civilian spheres – big data, artificial intelligence and advance simulation techniques being just a few of them.”

Indra’s director pointed out that this program is at the heart of the driving forces in all kinds of national technological capabilities – not only military – and that it shows a mature and pragmatic approach on the part of the State regarding its support for Research and Development (R&D) within Spanish companies.

According to Rodríguez Cerezo, it also benefits from “an enviable inter-ministerial coordination structure, which ensures focus, budget, prominence, industrial planning and a cross-cutting vision of all the program.” He also affirmed that the Government has displayed “tremendous determination and courage in adhering to the program during its earliest stages, which will in turn translate into tremendous technological development for the country.”

The FCAS will also provide the stability that the sector needs in order to tackle its digital transformation and to foster and facilitate its international business projection and global supply chain integration.

Companies, universities and other research bodies will work in the earliest stages of technological development, which will pose an important challenge.

According to Rodríguez Cerezo, this is a project for which “we must take advantage of all the capacities, talent and infrastructure available in Spain.”

He pointed out that, in order to succeed, it will be imperative for “each company to be clear and realistic in regards to its capacities and interests, and to work cohesively with other partners. A long-term business approach must prevail at all times.”

Indra’s role in the program will revolve around defending the interests of the Spanish State, coordinating and boosting the Spanish industry’s participation, and functioning as a point of contact and interlocutor with the Directorate-General of Armaments and Material (DGAM).

Rodríguez Cerezo considers that the FCAS will transform the business model of many companies in our country, so that R&D and product and proprietary technology development can become the new driving force for growth.

It will also serve as a lever to place them at the heart of the European Defence market, which will be seeing an influx of billions of euros in investment in the coming years.

According to Indra, Spanish industry will be able to compete in this new environment only if it has top-level technological capabilities and alliances with companies throughout Europe.

Indra is a company which places innovation at the heart of its business, and has marked out a strategy based on an ecosystem of collaboration among customers, partners and governments in order to develop the most advanced solutions capable of catering to market needs.

About Indra

Indra (www.indracompany.com) is one of the main global technology and consultancy companies and the technological partner for its customers’ key business operations around the world. It’s a major global supplier of proprietary solutions in specific segments of the Transportation and Defence markets and a leading company in digital transformation and information technology consultancy in Spain and Latin America by means of its Minsait subsidiary.

SIG SAUER Presents “WILDCraft South Africa” Video Series Now Streaming on Amazon Prime Video

 

NEWINGTON, N.H., (December 12, 2019) – SIG SAUER, Inc. is pleased to present the WILDCraft Video Series featuring the SIG SAUER Electro-Optic Ballistic Data Xchange (BDX) Rangefinder and Riflescope system, OSCAR8 Riflescope, and SIG SAUER Elite Copper Hunting Ammunition.  Season One of the WILDCraft series is now streaming exclusively on Amazon Prime Video.

WILDCraft is a four-part video series, hosted by Richard Mann, chronicling the journey of a group of gun writers and editors on a hunt led by professional hunter Geoffrey Wayland through the Fort Richmond Safaris in the mountains of South Africa’s Northern Cape. 

Throughout the WILDCraft series hunters train, and utilize, the SIG SAUER Electro-Optics BDX System which combines traditional hunting equipment with technology. BDX is a fully integrated rangefinder and riflescope system that utilizes Applied Ballistics Ultralight and Bluetooth™. The free SIG BDX app for Android and iOS systems allows for ballistic profiles to be established, and then communicated via Bluetooth™ to any SIG SAUER KILO BDX rangefinder. When targets are ranged, the ballistics are combined with distance to target, slope, temperature, and pressure to precisely calculate the shooting solution. This solution is displayed in the rangefinder and is also shared instantly with any SIERRA3BDX riflescope, instantly illuminating the exact holdover dot on the reticle in the riflescope. BDX™ is simple, fast, and intuitive – just connect the dot.

The SIG SAUER Electro-Optics OSCAR8 HDX Variable Power Spotting Scope aids the WILDCraft hunters to track their game in the Safari.  With more power, magnification, and the latest advancements in technology the OSCAR8 spotting scope s a premium, angled eyepiece 27–55x80mm spotting scope, featuring the industry-innovating SIG SAUER HDX optical design, and built specifically for hunters and shooters that demand the best in all-weather performance and durability in the field.

For ammunition the WILDCraft hunters utilize the SIG SAUER Elite Copper Hunting Ammunition 300 Win Mag (165gr.), 308 Win (150gr.), and 6.5 Creedmoor (120gr.) that features premium-quality powders and primers for minimum velocity variation and yields a 1.8x diameter expansion.  The ammunition is perfected for easy rifle feeding, with optimized nose geometry, and premium nickel-plated shell casings that deliver consistently reliable accuracy for taking down game.

The SIG SAUER products used by the WILDCraft hunters including the SIG SAUER BDX System, OSCAR8 Spotting Scope, and all calibers of the SIG SAUER Elite Copper Hunting Ammunition can be purchased online at sigsauer.com/store or retailers everywhere.

NEW PRODUCTS FROM BROWNELLS

A clean shaven Paul Levy kicks off this week’s new product highlights with something that’ll make handgun connoisseurs salivate: the revived SIG Sauer P210. The original P210 was a classic, both as a won’t-let-you-down duty pistol and a target gun, and the new edition replicates its fit, finish, and solid, “all of a piece” feel. And that light, crisp, single-stage, single action trigger! There are some updates: 3-dot sights, satin Nitride finish, American-style mag release, but the grips are still wood. Available in Standard and Target models, the new SIG P210 is everything a great pistol ought to be.

Next, Paul offers us a piece of the action – Bergara barreled actions, in several chamberings, that is. These precisely fitted bolt actions are compatible with Remington 700 parts, components, stocks, and chassis, so your customizing options are pretty much unlimited.

Last, a CMMG Banshee AR-15 pistol chambered in FN 5.7×28 that uses FN Five-seveN pistol magazines (other chamberings available). With a bunch of sweet features, including an SB Tactical stabilizing Brace, this NOT just another AR-15 pistol!

About Big Horn Armory:

Big Horn Armory was founded in 2008 with the expressed intention of designing a Browning-type lever-action gun chambered in 500 Smith & Wesson Magnum. The Big Horn Armory Model 89, made in America, closely follows the work of John Browning with refinements courtesy of modern metallurgy and machining capabilities. The first rifles began shipping in September of 2012 and since then, BHA has added to their big bore lineup with a Model 90 Carbine in 460 S&W, the Model 90A in 454 Casull, the Model 90B in .45 Colt, the Model 89A in 500 Linebaugh and the Model 89B in .475 Linebaugh. In 2017, Big Horn Armory took a departure from its lever-action series and developed the AR500 Auto Max, the most powerful short-range, semi-auto based on an AR .308 platform.

Twelve Days Until Christmas and 326 Days to 2020 Elections

Image result for 2020 elections gif funny

Hope you’ve all had a terrific week and that the Spirit of the Season is filling you hearts. It’s been one hell of a year and it’ll be nice to get all of this political strife behinds us. It’s Friday and time for a brief shoot the shit because I have all kinds of crap that I need to get done.

A shoot the shit is a social interaction during which participants are free to discuss anything that comes to mind, no one is required to know anything about the subject being discussed, any unsupported comments can be made, participants are free to use uncensored profanity, insult anyone they wish or change the subject at anytime. The alternative to regular shoot the shits is therapy, where you’ll have to pay $150+ an hour to a jackass who studied psychology so they could understand themselves.

If you’ve been watching the Impeachment Hearings you’ve undoubtedly found yourself disgusted regardless of Party affiliation. Never in a million years could I have ever imagined that this sort of thing could happen. The Democrat Congress has actually drafted Articles of Impeachment with no corroborating evidence. It’s amazing, and an embarrassment. Even worse, we have Democrat members of Congress suggesting that you can just keep impeaching a sitting President. Unbelievable!

If you think this is bad, wait until campaigns kick in. The shtick below is what you’ll likely be hearing from the Democrat candidates.

Please have a great weekend and don’t let this crap get to you, but do get to the polls and vote. Do, schedule your own shoot the shit because it’s a great way to spend quality time with your buds and family

Precision Rifle Components Names MasterPiece Arms (MPA) as Most Popular Chassis in “What the Joes Use” Survey

The totals were pulled from 626 registered shooters that participated in Wisconsin Precision Rifle Steel Challenge (WPRSC) events during the 2019 match season. MPA barrels were also named the seventh most popular rifle barrels used among local PRS competitors.

Top stock and chassis manufacturers used in 2019 WPRSC matches. Graphs courtesy of the Precision Rifle Components.

Comer, Ga. (December 2019)MasterPiece Arms (MPA), manufacturers of the MPA BA Rifles and Chassis Systems, was recently surveyed to be the most popular chassis/stock system in the Wisconsin PRS market, as compiled in Precision Rifle Component’s “What the Joes Use: Top Stocks and Chassis Used by Local PRS Competitors in 2019.” The MPA chassis is used by approximately 21 percent of the WPRSC competitors. MPA barrels were also surveyed to be the seventh most popular rifle barrel used by Wisconsin PRS competitors.

“Whether it’s a Pro or a Joe who uses our products, we want every single person that chooses to use our chassis systems in competition to receive the same accuracy, power, and reliability that our chassis can provide. We love hearing from competitors across the nation and learning more about what they trust during competition. We are honored to have been named the most popular chassis used by the WPRSC competitors,” commented Phil Cashin, MPA President.

The MPA BA Competition Chassis is the competition version of MPA’s highly successful MPA BA Chassis System. It has been named the number one chassis in the PRS every year since 2016. It is designed to give shooters a competitive advantage when shooting in long-range tactical rifle competitions, such as the PRS. In addition to the standard chassis features, it has been enhanced with the Spigot Mount V4 Design that attaches to the front of the forend to give the shooter additional space to mount their bipod and the Ultra Bag Rider attachment for better rear bag recoil management. MSRP ranges from $999 – $1,150.

MPA purchased Spencer Rifle Barrels in June of 2013, which allows for the in-house capability required to produce world-class rifle barrels. In addition to the equipment needed to produce the barrels, Clay Spencer’s methods and practices are followed to the letter at MPA. Spencer’s methods were developed over 30 plus years of painstaking effort with the goal of producing the best barrels possible, delivering long life and extreme accuracy. No short cuts are ever taken. The process is slow, exacting and very specific with impressive results. Spencer Rifle Barrels have set over 43 world records and won 75 plus major matches and National Championships. These MPA barrels can be purchased finished and installed on MPA rifles or acquired separately as a contoured barrel blank.

Precision Rifle Components and Wisconsin Precision Rifle Steel Challenge (WPRSC)partnered to share usage data, pulled from 626 registered shooters that participated in WPRSC events during the 2019 match season. The goal of the “What the Joes Use” survey was to focus on what the average local PRS competitor uses. More information on how the data was compiled can be found in the “What the Joes Use: What Equipment are Local PRS Competitors Using in 2019?” article.

NSSF Welcomes Massachusetts AG’s ‘Enforcement Notice’ Clarification

 

NSSF The Firearms Industry Trade Association

 

WASHINGTON, D.C. — The National Shooting Sports Foundation® (NSSF®), the firearms industry trade association, accepts Massachusetts Attorney General Maura Healey’s agreement to clarify the Enforcement Notice that included “’Copies’ or ‘Duplicates’ of the Enumerated Weapons.” The Attorney General’s agreement to clarify this notice effectively ends the legal challenge by NSSF, Pullman Arms of Worcester, Mass., along with three other Massachusetts firearms retailers.

“We are pleased this matter has come to a successful resolution,” said Lawrence G. Keane, Senior Vice President of Government Relations and Public Affairs and General Counsel for NSSF. “We sought clarification to the Enforcement Notice to allow firearms retailers to know exactly what the law stated and ensure they were operating within the confines of that law. For two and a half years, these business owners were left in the dark and today, they finally have the clear answers they sought.”

In 2016 Attorney General Healey charged that firearms retailers were violating the intent of a state law against so-called “assault weapons” by making small tweaks to certain firearms and issued the Enforcement Notice. The Notice warned retailers those so-called “copies” or “duplicates” of the firearms specifically listed in the state law were illegal for sale.

NSSF and the stores had to file the case to challenge the Notice because it was too vague to apply. The complaint identified the difficulties in applying the Notice to listed firearms after the Attorney General’s office ignored multiple requests to clarify the Notice as to those firearms. The Office did not take steps to clarify the notice for two and a half years, and only recently notified the Plaintiffs that the listed firearms are not illegal “assault weapons.” The Office agreed to amend the Notice after NSSF prevailed against multiple motions designed to dismiss or stall the case. Because the Notice has been clarified, the goals for the case have been achieved, and there is nothing else to fight about in this action.

 

About NSSF

The National Shooting Sports Foundation is the trade association for the firearms 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.

The QuickTuk Cloud For The Popular SIG-Sauer P938 From Galco

Introducing The QuickTuk Cloud For The Popular SIG-Sauer P938

 

Galco is excited to introduce the QuickTuk Cloud™ inside the waistband holster for the very popular SIG-Sauer® P938! An ideal combination of comfort, convenience, security and efficiency, the QuickTuk Cloud is a great addition to the toolbox of any defense-minded gun carrier.

Comfort is, of course, critical when carrying a handgun for defense. A holster that’s uncomfortable will just mean the handgun is left at home when it’s needed most. To maximize wearer comfort, the QuickTuk Cloud uses an innovative backing plate composed of a ballistic nylon front over a closed cell foam body. Lined with Galco’s Comfort Cloth™, the plate provides padding and moisture wicking, making it comfortable to wear for extended hours every single day.

Convenient concealment is also important, so we’ve made the QuickTuk Cloud easy to put on and take off, while still staying secure inside your pants during concealed carry. We use our patent-pending, tuckable polymer UniClip™ for stability and easy on-off capability. The clip can be moved up or down in the corresponding holes in the backing plate, enabling you to set the carry height to suit your own unique preferences.

Finally, efficiency is key. Time is usually in short supply in a defensive situation, so you need to be able to get the handgun into action quickly. The QuickTuk Cloud’s rigid, open-top Kydex® holster pocket facilitates a full firing grip for a fast draw and easy return to holster, while still firmly retaining the handgun when it’s not needed.

When you need an IWB holster that perfectly combines comfort, concealability, convenience, security and defensive efficiency, look to the QuickTuk Cloud. It’s available in black at the very affordable retail price of $55.

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. Encompassing law enforcement, military, defensive and sporting use, the Galco brand utilizes leather, nylon, injection-molded plastic and Kydex® to meet the demands of today’s consumers. The award-winning Matrix™ line of holsters and accessories, women’s holster handbags, tactical slings and hunting accessories round out the line. All Galco products are proudly made in the USA since 1969.

Lauren Boebert Announces Run For Congress

 

Lauren Boebert for Congress

Lauren Boebert for Congress

Rifle, Colorado – -(AmmoLand.com)- Lauren Boebert, a conservative Republican, successful small business owner, mother of four boys, and Second Amendment advocate, announced the launch of her campaign to represent the citizens of Colorado’s Third Congressional District in the United States House of Representatives.

 

“There is a battle for the heart and soul of our country that I intend on helping win,” said Lauren Boebert. “I’m running for Congress to stand up for our conservative values, address our representatives’ failed promises, and put far-left Democrats back in their place.”

“Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the Squad and the rest of these left-wing lunatics are taking a wrecking ball to our country while our current representative stays utterly silent,” Lauren said.

“Hard-working, patriotic Americans like you and me don’t want the Green New Deal and socialized medicine. Every time AOC and the rest of the Squad pipes up with another crazy idea I will remind them that our belief in God, Country and Family are what built the United States of America into the greatest nation the world has ever known.”

Lauren earned national notoriety in September when she attended a rally held by then-presidential candidate Beto O’Rourke and told him, “Hell no, you won’t take our guns.”

 

Garfield County Sheriff Lou Vallario endorsed Lauren Boebert’s campaign, saying “Lauren Boebert is a true patriot who always stands on the right side of freedom. She is exactly who I want representing us in Congress.”

Lauren started, owns and operates Shooters Grill in Rifle, Colorado, is active in her church, and has spent time counseling at-risk women at the local jail, encouraging them to become self-sufficient and productive members of society who do not depend on government assistance.

She is an avid supporter of President Trump and his policies to Make America Great Again.

Lauren’s husband, Jayson, has worked his entire adult life in oil and gas fields, primarily in Western Colorado. They are the proud parents of four boys.

GLOCK Debuts a New Caliber Pistol; GLOCK 44 Chambered in .22 LR

 

SMYRNA, Ga. – Dec 10, 2019 GLOCK, Inc., a global leader in firearms manufacturing and innovation, invites you to start the .22 Long Rifle (LR) caliber journey with the introduction of the new GLOCK 44.

The company debuted its first-ever .22 LR caliber pistol at a live product launch that included select media partners and distributors on site while GLOCK fans and brand loyalists tuned in to be a part of the experience from around the globe.

Since inception, GLOCK has been synonymous with reliability, accuracy and durability. GLOCK does not compromise when it comes to quality and reliability in a firearm. Now you can get the same trusted reliability and durability in a .22 LR caliber pistol.  The GLOCK 44 has a unique hybrid steel-polymer slide and mirrors the iconic GLOCK 19 frame size for optimal performance for new shooters, sport shooters, and everyone in between. “The way the G44 mirrors the iconic G19 is great and all levels of shooters will benefit from owning and practicing with the G44,” said Retired Marine Gunner Christian Wade.  “I subjected the G44 to a variety of adverse conditions and it holds its own with every other GLOCK ever produced.”

Wade was one of two partners selected by GLOCK to rigorously test the GLOCK 44 in a variety of climates and adverse conditions. With over 30 years in the Marine Corps and as a firearms expert, Wade understands the importance of functionality and ease of use is realized in the GLOCK platform and carried on to the GLOCK 44.

GLOCK has taken everything that is fun and functional about a .22 LR caliber pistol and enhanced it to improve your experience with optimal performance. “While many .22 LR firearms exhibit tendencies to function differently with particular ammunition types, the G44 pistol functioned to near perfection,” said Bryan Peterson, Manager of Product Concept Development at Federal Ammunition.

Peterson was also a partner included in early testing and extended his expertise of ammunition through testing the G44 with thousands of rounds and a large variety of ammunition.

The G44 features many of the latest enhancements seen in the 5th Generation of GLOCK pistols such as the ambidextrous slide stop lever and reversible magazine catch, the GLOCK Marksman barrel (GMB) for increased accuracy and performance, adjustable back straps, and adjustable rear sights.  The G44 also features a ghost hole loaded chamber indicator and comes standard with two 10-round load assist magazines.

Atos and RAFAEL win the German Army’s “Glass Battlefield” study tender

Atos GmbH, as prime, has teamed up with RAFAEL Advanced Defense Systems and various partners, to demonstrate use of UAS in conjunction with combat vehicles, to achieve a real-time, three-dimensional, dynamic situation picture for mobile operations

Tel Aviv, December 9, 2019 – Atos GmbH, a global leader in digital transformation has been selected to act as prime contractor by the German Federal Office for Equipment, Information Technology and Use of the Federal Armed Forces (BAAINBw), for “Creation of a glass battlefield to support dynamic operations (ErzUntGlas)” study.

Atos has joined forces with RAFAEL Advanced Defense Systems Ltd., developer and manufacturer  leading edge defense solutions,to demonstrate use of UAS in conjunction with combat vehicles, to achieve a real-time, three-dimensional, dynamic situation picture for mobile operations.

For mobile battlefield reconnaissance, the German armed forces need many unmanned aerial systems (UAS) that can span a “Glass Battlefield”. A C4I command and communication network consisting of civilian and military components will be used. The study entails an annual demonstration experiment starting in 2019 and until 2023, which would then be followed by a project planning up to 2025.

As prime contractor that submitted the winning proposal, Atos will provide Project Lead and Integration, and RAFAEL will provide FIRE WEAVER (advanced 3D many-to-many sensor-to-shooter system) and BNET (patented broadband IP spectrum-sensing SDR system for both air and land platforms).

BNET is a Spectrum-Aware SDR – utilizing the spectral arena of the battlefield to the fullest in a cognitive way, using Multi-frequency Channel Reception (MCR), which enables it to receive and analyze information from numerous frequency channels, simultaneously, using a single RF head.

Mr. Yoav Wermuth, VP and head of RAFAEL’s C3I directorate: “Today’s battlefields are undergoing far-reaching changes that affect the operational needs of land, air and naval forces, with newly emerging real-time applications, such as sensor-to-effector cycle closure systems. Rising up to meet these challenges, and basing itself on decades of experience in the development of C4I solutions, RAFAEL has developed the BNET Family enhanced with a Patented technology, and the Fire Weaver for high-precision, three-dimensional, GPS-independent common visual language system. Assimilation of these systems into the Bundeswehr will lead to a number of significant changes: It will provide a common visual language between different types of units not only from the Bundeswehr, but also from allied forces, which share the same threats and missions, connecting multiple sensors and shooters on one single “flat” network.

For more information about BNET please see: https://www.rafael.co.il/worlds/land/tactical-communications/

For more information about FIRE WEAVER please see:  https://www.rafael.co.il/worlds/land/multi-service-network-centric-warfare/
