Streamlight Launches the ProTac 2.0 HP

Posted on Friday, 11 July, 2025 by twobirdsflyingpub

STREAMLIGHT^® LAUNCHES THE PROTAC^®2.0 HP

Optimized for Peak Performance, this Handheld Light Delivers High Lumen Output and Significantly Increased Candela over the Previous Model

EAGLEVILLE, PA, July 10, 2025 – Streamlight^® Inc., a leading provider of high-performance lighting, introduced the ProTac^® 2.0 HP tactical flashlight, delivering 85,000 candela for powerful downrange illumination, nearly five times the distance output of its predecessor, the ProTac 2.0. This new rechargeable light produces 2,000 lumens for situations where exceptional brightness is needed.

The ProTac 2.0 HP offers the latest in LED technology and provides three operating modes – High, Medium and Low. On High, it delivers 2,000 lumens and 85,000 candela; on the Medium setting, it provides 550 lumens and 22,500 candela; on Low, it offers 100 lumens and 4,400 candela. Run times range from 31 hours on Low to 2.5 hours on High. The light’s strobe features a two-hour run time.

The light also features a TEN-TAP® programmable switch, which allows for user selection from among three programs: high/strobe/low (factory default); high only; or low/medium/high.

The ProTac 2.0 HP is powered by a Streamlight SL-B50^®, a 4,900mAh protected Lithium-Ion USB rechargeable battery that is accessed by the light’s sliding sleeve. The battery is keyed to ensure proper alignment of the USB-C charging port, and features LED status lights to indicate charging status, including red for charging and green for fully charged. An integrated safety circuit protects the battery from accidental overcharge or discharge.

“This latest addition to the ProTac^® series of tactical handheld lights provides first responders, security units, outdoor enthusiasts, and others a light that combines balanced brightness – both distance illumination and ultra-bright light – without sacrificing run times,” said Streamlight President, Michael F. Dineen. “Users will appreciate the convenience and ease of charging the battery pack either inside or outside of the light.”

Fabricated from 6000 series machined aircraft aluminum with an anodized finish, the ProTac 2.0 HP also features an anti-roll head and a gasket-sealed lens. Its multi-function, push-button tactical tail switch permits one-handed operation of the momentary, variable intensity or strobe modes. The light also comes with a sturdy, removable pocket clip, holster and USB-C charge cord.

The ProTac 2.0 HP is 6.10 inches in length and weighs 8.25 ounces with one included SL-B50 rechargeable battery. The light has an IP67-rated design for dust-tight and waterproof operation to one meter for 30 minutes and is impact resistance tested to two meters.

Available in black, the ProTac2.0 HP has an MSRP of $218.40. It comes with Streamlight’s Limited Lifetime Warranty.

Sturm, Ruger & Company, Inc. Announces Asset Purchase of Anderson Manufacturing

Posted on Friday, 11 July, 2025 by twobirdsflyingpub

Sturm, Ruger & Company, Inc. Announces Asset Purchase of Anderson Manufacturing

July 01, 2025

Anderson Manufacturing - AR15Discounts

Sturm, Ruger & Company, Inc. (NYSE: RGR) is pleased to announce the asset purchase of Anderson Manufacturing, a manufacturer of firearms and firearm accessories based in Hebron, Kentucky. This strategic purchase includes Anderson’s manufacturing facility and machinery and will provide Ruger the opportunity to work with a skilled and experienced workforce, strengthening its production capabilities and expanding its product offerings.
Located in a firearms-friendly region, the facility brings valuable expertise in the production of both firearms and aftermarket parts and accessories – areas that complement and enhance Ruger’s existing offerings.
“This acquisition is an incredible opportunity to advance our long-term strategy and expand Ruger’s capacity,” said Todd Seyfert, President and CEO of Ruger. “We’re excited to welcome members from the talented team at Anderson Manufacturing and leverage their knowledge and infrastructure to better serve our customers. This move reinforces Ruger’s position as a leader in the industry, and reiterates my focus on continued growth, even as others scale back.”
Ruger will not continue the Anderson Manufacturing brand or its firearms products. Instead, the Company will integrate the facility’s capabilities into its broader operations, with a focus on launching new products, expanding Ruger’s popular product lines and growing its established accessories business.
Customers, distributors, and partners can continue to expect the high standards of quality, reliability and service that define the Ruger brand. This acquisition underscores Ruger’s commitment to American manufacturing and its mission to deliver innovative, reliable products to the firearms community.

NSSF Disappointed with 2nd Circuit Decision of NSSF’s Challenge to N.Y. Anti-PLCAA Statute

Posted on Friday, 11 July, 2025 by twobirdsflyingpub

NSSF

July 10, 2025

NSSF Disappointed with 2^nd Circuit Decision of NSSF’s Challenge to N.Y. Anti-PLCAA Statute

WASHINGTON, D.C. — NSSF^®, The Firearm Industry Trade Association, is disappointed with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit’s ruling in NSSF v. James, the challenge to a New York State statute that attempts to circumvent the bipartisan Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act (PLCAA). NSSF respectfully disagrees with the Second Circuit’s reasoning that NSSF did not meet its burden in showing that the law is facially invalid because the court could conceive of some potentially legitimate applications of the law. NSSF is exploring all legal options.

“The Second Circuit’s decision is disappointing. We respectfully disagree with the court’s reasoning to uphold New York’s law. We earnestly believe this law is exactly what Congress had in mind when it passed PLCAA with a bipartisan majority. The PLCAA is designed to prohibit frivolous lawsuits against members of the firearm industry, and we continue to believe the New York statute is intended to evade the will of Congress,” said Lawrence G. Keane, NSSF Senior Vice President and General Counsel. “PLCAA is codification of bedrock tort law. It codifies common law and common-sense principles to prevent baseless litigation from bankrupting an entire industry, especially one that provides the necessary means for the lawful exercise of the Second Amendment.”

The Second Circuit ruling held that, on its face, New York’s law falls within PLCAA’s predicate exception and thus is not preempted by federal law, does not exceed the state’s authority to regulate interstate commerce and is not void for vagueness. New York’s public nuisance statute imposes liability for firearm industry members who know or recklessly endanger the safety or health of the public through the sale or marketing of firearms.

As Judge Dennis Jacobs explained in a concurring opinion, New York’s law “is nothing short of an attempt to end-run PLCAA.” The statute was signed by then-Gov. Andrew Cuomo, who used his signing statement to tell the public that the law “would ‘right the wrong’ done by PLCAA.” Judge Jacobs added, “New York has now contrived a broad public nuisance statute that applies solely to ‘gun industry members’ and is enforceable by a mob of public and private actors. The intent of Congress when it closes a door is not for States to thus jimmy a window.”

Nevertheless, Judge Jacobs concluded that he was “constrained to agree with my colleagues that, depending on the pleading, this statute could be applied consistent with PLCAA and the Constitution; and under Circuit precedent, that suffices to defeat Appellants’ facial challenge.” Judge Jacobs also noted that the ruling leaves open as-applied challenges to the law. Indeed, there are several pending lawsuits brought under New York’s law seeking to hold industry members liable for the criminal actions of remote third parties and New York Attorney General Letitia James has intervened in one of those cases.

NSSF argued, and continues to believe, the law is preempted by PLCAA, violates the dormant Commerce Clause, and is so vague as to violate the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment.

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, firearm retailers, shooting ranges, sportsmen’s organizations and publishers nationwide.

The ARO EVO introduces the Special Purpose Reticle (SPR), which combines a 2 MOA dot, a circle, and bullet drop compensation/ranging marks for greater versatility, especially at intermediate ranges. Like the ARO, the ARO EVO includes Shake Awake™ Technology, a 50,000-hour battery life, and Solar Failsafe™ built into the 6061 aluminum housing.

From Field to Range: HatsanUSA’s Harpoon and Hydra Bring Next-Gen Arrow Launching to Airguns

Posted on Thursday, 10 July, 2025 by twobirdsflyingpub

From Field to Range: HatsanUSA’s Harpoon and Hydra Bring Next-Gen Arrow Launching to Airguns

Rogers, AR (July 9, 2025) – Airguns have a special place in hunting performance and target applications. While firearms typically dominate these categories, archery has been the longest-held hunting and target tradition for over a millennium. With compound and crossbows finding their way into sports shooting, Hatsan brings arrow air rifles to life. Combining these two is not a simple task, and Hatsan has developed the most versatile – and the most affordable – option that utilizes air rifle technology with an archery focus.

The Harpoon Arrow Launcher is a fully capable, revolutionary arrow launcher. As the name implies, this robust bullpup design incorporates a side-lever action in a PCP (pre-charged pneumatic) that can reliably send arrows downrange at up to 600 FPS and up to 300 FPE, delivering exceptional power and precision.

The heart of the Harpoon Arrow Launcher is powered by a patented gas piston hammer spring. The design utilizes a 500cc aluminum air bottle that stores up to 250 BAR of pressure, firing up to 10 shots at optimal velocity for extended range and hunting time.

The design is centered around a standard 20” crossbow arrow (bolt). The advanced polymer stock features an integrated pistol grip. An adjustable locking elevation cheek rest and adjustable rubberized butt pad allow maximum adjustability for shooters of all sizes. An optic can be fixed to the long combination rail for those longer and more difficult shots, accepting 11mm and Picatinny mounts.

The Harpoon Arrow Launcher weighs 9.5 lbs, aiding in recoil mitigation, yet remains light enough for all-day use and carry. A shroud surrounds the arrow launcher and has additional storage for two arrows, making reloading and firing a simplified and fast process.

To view full specs, please visit: https://hatsanairgunsusa.com/product/harpoon/

Hydra Arrow provides additional versatility nearly unseen in the air rifle world. The Hydra features Versi-Cal Technology (VCT) – a barrel change and swap system – an arrow module that allows the Hydra to fire pellets of varying sizes and arrows. A user can incorporate hunting, target, and archery into one platform with a quick change in less than 20 seconds. Swapping from .177, .22, or .25 caliber to a 20″ arrow takes little time and is suitable for all shooters. The arrow module is enclosed in a ventilated stainless steel shroud with integrated storage for two additional arrows. It launches a standard 20-inch, 370-grain arrow at 170 FPS with 25 PFE in low-power mode and up to 220 FPS with 45 PFE in high-power mode. Power is delivered by a 165cc, 200 BAR aluminum cylinder equipped with an anti-knock system, with pressure levels that can be continuously monitored by a built-in gauge.

Corrosion-resistant black anodized aluminum receivers sit in an ambidextrous all-weather synthetic stock with a Monte Carlo cheek rest raised on both sides.

WATCHTOWER Firearms Hits Highest Production Level Since Inception

WATCHTOWER Firearms Hits Highest Production Level Since Inception

Veteran-Owned, American-Made Manufacturer Surges Forward, Expanding Product Line and Meeting Demand for DEMOLITIA and APACHE 1911 Pistols.

SPRING, TX (July 8, 2025) — WATCHTOWER™ Firearms, a veteran-owned and American-made firearms manufacturer, is excited to announce that production is now running at its highest level since the company’s inception. The company has successfully fulfilled all backorders for the highly sought-after DEMOLITIATM and Standard APACHE 1911 pistols.

“We are proud to report that production is running full-steam ahead, and we’re on track to meet the demands of our customers,” said Jason Colosky, founder and CEO of WATCHTOWER Firearms. “Our commitment to delivering high-quality, competition-grade firearms, all while being proudly American-made, has never been stronger.”

One of the standout offerings from WATCHTOWER Firearms is the APACHE 1911 Double-Stack Pistol. Meticulously crafted for the dedicated marksman, this American-made handgun combines top-tier engineering, performance, and durability. Drawing inspiration from its legendary sibling, the PewView Limited Edition, the APACHE 1911 stands as the ultimate sidearm for the true American warrior. With a robust pre-hardened 4140 and 416R stainless-steel frame, complemented by a commanding 4.25-inch slide, the APACHE 1911 is not just a tool, but an extension of the shooter’s hand. Featuring wide, tactical-profile grips and an ultra-efficient double-stack mag well, the APACHE 1911 delivers exceptional handling and performance.

In partnership with Matt Carriker of Demolition Ranch, WATCHTOWER Firearms is also in full production with orders fulfilled for the DEMOLITIA 1911 pistol. Built to Matt’s exact specifications, the DEMOLITIA represents the next generation of the double-stacked 1911 platform. This precisely crafted, American-made pistol features a full-length ported barrel that improves speed and accuracy, making it ideal for both competitive shooting and personal defense. The DEMOLITIA is currently available, but production is limited; enthusiasts are advised to act quickly before it sells out. Additionally, a special DEMOLITIA Black Out Edition will be released in July, featuring an all-black design and produced in a limited run.

Looking ahead, WATCHTOWER Firearms is on track to launch the RAIDER15 rifles and the APACHE Commander, a new everyday carry double-stack 1911 line, in August. Customers will be able to see these new products, along with the full range of other WATCHTOWER premier firearms, showcased at upcoming industry trade shows, including the Worldwide, NBS, and NASGW events. Additionally, the company is partnering with Sports Inc. to ensure a presence at their upcoming events.

WATCHTOWER Firearms is actively seeking partnerships with retailers interested in carrying its products. Interested parties can reach out to support@watchtowerfirearms.com to discuss specific needs and develop a plan to maximize sales.

At WATCHTOWER Firearms, they design and deliver products made by individuals who have dedicated their lives to preserving the American way of life.

Robotic Police Force Pushes Toward AI-Powered Law Enforcement

Robotic Police Force Pushes Toward AI-Powered Law Enforcement

Jul 5, 2025

Indonesia has become the latest country to embrace automation in policing, unveiling a new lineup of robotic officers designed to support law enforcement operations across a range of scenarios. The robotic units were formally introduced during the 79th anniversary celebrations of the Indonesian National Police (Polri) on July 1, 2025, in Jakarta.

The event featured a live demonstration of 25 robotic officers, including humanoid robots, tank-like platforms, robot dogs, and more. All units were equipped with advanced AI capabilities and dressed in full uniforms, complete with berets and tactical gear.

According to Interesting Engineering, these AI-driven systems are intended to enhance operational safety and efficiency in tasks considered high-risk or repetitive. Core capabilities include bomb disposal, forensic evidence collection, search-and-rescue, and crowd control. Facial recognition systems and surveillance sensors are integrated into the humanoid robots, which may also be tasked with identifying traffic violations or supporting riot response.

Polri officials emphasized seven primary operational functions for the robotic force: hazardous zone monitoring, explosives detection, narcotics identification, traffic enforcement, smart facial recognition patrols, search-and-rescue missions, and support during public disturbances.

The robotic dogs replicate many of the capabilities of traditional police canines. Designed for mobility and rugged terrain, these units are expected to contribute to hazardous material detection and narcotics investigations.

This initiative is part of a broader modernization strategy by Indonesian authorities to digitize public security infrastructure and reduce human risk in dangerous field operations.

Globally, robotic systems are increasingly integrated into policing and public safety frameworks. In the U.S., robots are widely used for bomb disposal, SWAT support, and surveillance in urban areas. Similar programs exist in China, where AI-driven systems monitor transportation hubs and public squares, and in the UAE, where Dubai aims to have robots account for 25% of its police force by 2030.

As the use of robotics expands across security sectors, so do discussions about ethics, data privacy, and the long-term implications of automated law enforcement. For now, Indonesia joins a growing list of nations leveraging robotics to transform traditional policing models and enhance national readiness.
