Outdoor America Sets Q3 Broadcast Lineup
Outdoor America Sets Q3 Broadcast Lineup
Southlake, TX (July 9, 2025) – Outdoor America, the country’s fastest-growing networks for outdoor enthusiasts, continues to grow into the destination network for viewers. The industry-leading broadcaster of outdoor-themed television content has added new episodes of several key programs that will air from now through September, including Silver Kings, Raised Hunting, Lindner’s Angling Edge, Beyond The Grid, SportFishing TV: Vs, and George Poveromo’s Saltwater Fishing.
Now in its ninth season, Silver Kings’ ongoing mission is to provide thrills for its viewers while educating, informing, and entertaining them. The goal of each show is to help viewers understand the high-stakes world of fly fishing for giant tarpon while also revealing the hidden tricks of the bonefishing trade.
Born from a passion for the outdoors and a deep respect for the hunt, Raised Hunting is a groundbreaking TV series in which the hosts share their pursuit of game and the life lessons they learn along the way. Through powerful storytelling and cinematic videography, they bring viewers into the heart of the hunt, making them part of every moment.
Lindner’s Angling Edge is a long-time outdoor fishing series that showcases the methods and movements used during the season to catch some of the country’s most sought-after game fish. Based in Baxter, Minnesota, the program educates and instructs anglers on the best methods and equipment for landing a trophy.
Beyond The Grid is a docu-series from Eastmans’ showcasing bow and rifle hunts across the West and beyond. The program’s essence is to take viewers along on some of the favorite hunts from members and Eastmans’ staff, showcasing some of the most exciting big game hunts the world has to offer.
Sport Fishing TV: Vs travels the world, from the Florida Keys to Panama to the United Kingdom, exploring new and emerging fisheries, chasing rare species, and seeing different sides of well-known destinations. Among the featured species on the program are bluefin tuna, bonefish, permit, dolphin, redfish, roosterfish, and more.
For 25 years, George Poveromo’s World of Saltwater Fishing has taught viewers how to catch a wide variety of game fish, from exotic species like blue marlin and bonefish to regional favorites along the coastal U.S. and popular angling destinations abroad.
“We work hard to continue to bring great programming to our loyal outdoor audience,” said Jamie Wilkinson, Executive Vice President of Outdoor America. “We are happy to bring new episodes of these outstanding programs to our viewers, as we continue to be dedicated to outdoor enthusiasts everywhere.”

CLAYTON, MO (July 09, 2025) — Winchester Ammunition is proud to introduce Final Pass™, featuring a custom blend of plated precision steel shot, with shot sizes carefully crafted for hard-core waterfowl hunters.

“Blended steel loads are extremely effective for waterfowl and provide an excellent combination of performance and affordability,” said Kyle Masinelli, Senior Director of Product Innovation and Strategy for Winchester. “The plated precision steel shot blended with custom half shot sizes makes Final Pass a versatile shotshell that waterfowl hunters can run all season whether chasing early season teal or late season geese.”
Key features of Final Pass™:
-
Blended payload – Features a unique mix of plated precision steel shot sizes to deliver maximum pattern density and devastating energy upon impact
-
Plated precision steel shot – Industry-leading round steel shot flies true and won’t rust – keeping patterns tight and deadly
-
Balanced penetration and pattern density – Half-sized shot improves pellet counts without sacrificing critical penetration

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.

Robotic Police Force Pushes Toward AI-Powered Law Enforcement
Robotic Police Force Pushes Toward AI-Powered Law Enforcement
Jul 5, 2025
(Source: iHLS)
This post is also available in: 
עברית (Hebrew)
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.

Brandon Maddox Appointed to NSSF Board of Governors
WASHINGTON, D.C. — NSSF®, The Firearm Industry Trade Association, is pleased to announce that Brandon Maddox, Founder and CEO of Silencer Central and BANISH Suppressors, has been appointed to the NSSF Board of Governors. Maddox brings a unique blend of business leadership, regulatory expertise and passionate advocacy for the shooting sports to his new role on the board.
Maddox founded Silencer Central in 2005 with the goal of simplifying the silencer purchasing process for sportsmen and firearm enthusiasts. Today, the Sioux Falls-based company is one of the nation’s largest silencer dealers, serving customers in 42 states where suppressors are legal.
“I am deeply honored to accept the appointment to the NSSF Board of Governors,” said Maddox. “The NSSF plays a pivotal role in defending our 2nd Amendment rights and supporting companies within the firearms industry. As someone who has led from the front and actively worked to improve the buying process and regulatory landscape for suppressors, I can attest to what a great resource, and partner, NSSF can be for entrepreneurs like myself. That’s why I see this appointment as an opportunity, and responsibility, to continue working for the good of firearm and suppressor owners, and to protect and expand our nation’s shooting and hunting heritage.”
A staunch Second Amendment advocate and lifelong hunter, Maddox is also the founder of the South Dakota Firearms Industry Association. He has testified before state legislatures on firearm policy, championing reforms that protect shooting sports and expand access for responsible firearm owners.
“Brandon brings deep knowledge of the regulatory landscape and a passion for protecting the rights of sportsmen and women,” said Joe Bartozzi, NSSF President and CEO. “His entrepreneurial leadership and commitment to our industry’s growth will be valuable assets to the Board of Governors.”
Maddox was appointed to the NSSF Board of Governors during the NSSF’s recent mid-year meeting.

NSSF Applauds President Establishing the ‘Make America Beautiful Again Commission’
July 7, 2025
NSSF Applauds President Establishing the ‘Make America Beautiful Again Commission’
WASHINGTON, D.C. — NSSF®, The Firearm Industry Trade Association, applauds President Donald Trump’s Executive Order Establishing the “Make America Beautiful Again” Commission. President Trump signed the Executive Order on July 3, which will prioritize expanding public land access for hunting and encourage wildlife conservation efforts through proactive, voluntary, on-the-ground collaborative efforts.
“President Trump’s Executive Order is a significant step toward ensuring public lands continue to be places where the public can safely practice and pass along the traditions of hunting and recreational target shooting,” said Joseph Bartozzi, NSSF President and CEO. “Equally important is the commitment to sustainable wildlife conservation. Thriving wildlife across America is successful only through the investments by hunter-conservationists and firearm and ammunition manufacturers that pay the overwhelming share of excise tax dollars to fund this vital effort. America’s successful wildlife conservation is the envy of the world. Conservation-minded policies keep us connected to the lands and the wildlife we enjoy.”
President Trump’s “Make America Beautiful Again” Commission will be chaired by U.S. Secretary of the Interior Doug Burgum. The commission’s focus will be on conserving America’s national treasures and natural resources, facilitating interagency coordination on conservation efforts, providing the president with actionable recommendations to improve conservation efforts, developing policies to recover fish and wildlife populations through collaboration over regulation and including state wildlife agencies in those efforts.
Key to these efforts will be developing policies that will expand access to public lands, national parks, national forests and wildlife refuges to promote outdoor recreational activities, including hunting.
President Trump’s Executive Order noted that hunters, hikers, anglers and outdoorsmen and women have been stripped of their ability to access public lands through mismanagement of public land resources, regulatory overreach and neglect of routine maintenance. The Executive Order also recognized that bureaucratic restrictions have undermined outdoor traditions and threatened conservation funding. Additionally, President Trump noted that since the NSSF-supported Great American Outdoors Act was signed into law, the outdoor recreation economy has grown to $1.2 trillion in economic output and comprises 3.1 percent – or 5 million – jobs in the United States.
President Trump’s Executive Order follows Secretary Burgum’s Secretarial Order to begin implementing key provisions of the NSSF-supported Expanding Public Lands Outdoor Recreation Experiences (EXPLORE) Act, which was signed into law last year. The EXPLORE Act includes the NSSF-priority Range Access Act, which requires the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and the U.S. Forest Service (USFS), after consultation with local stakeholders, to build recreational shooting ranges in each BLM district and National Forest in areas where opportunities do not already exist. These opportunities will allow for more access to public shooting ranges for target practice, to sight in rifles and shotguns before the hunting season and venues for in-person hunter safety education courses, all without competing against private ranges that offer the same opportunities.

Wazoo Gear’s Cache Cap Proves Its Worth in the Wild with Alone Season 12 Contestant Dug North
Wazoo Gear’s Cache Cap Proves Its Worth in the Wild with Alone Season 12 Contestant Dug North
Longmont, CO (July 7, 2025) – When Dug North set out into the harsh South African wilderness as a contestant on Alone Season 12, he brought only 10 carefully selected survival items. But one additional tool came with him—without counting against that strict limit: the Cache Cap from Wazoo Gear.
While Wazoo Gear has no affiliation with Alone or its producers, the brand’s mission to create discreet, functional survival tools aligned perfectly with Dug’s minimalist and intentional approach to gear. In a recent exclusive interview with Wazoo, Dug explained why the Cache Cap made the cut—and why it mattered.
“Whenever possible, I choose gear that I know well and trust,” said North. “The Cache Cap falls into that category. I don’t think I ever got it on camera, but the bill pocket was a secure place to put my fishing hooks. This was really helpful because we are not allowed to bring containers specifically for the hooks.”
Photo by Kielyn Marrone
Because the Cache Cap is classified as apparel, it didn’t count against Dug’s 10-item limit, yet still provided meaningful storage and survival utility. That clever edge isn’t just a survival hack—it’s the underlying philosophy behind Wazoo Gear: providing more capability without more baggage.
A longtime student of survival and former archaeologist, Dug North took a methodical approach to preparation. He trained with survival instructors like Josh Enyart and Kielyn Marrone (herself a veteran of Alone Season 7), simulated his own solo survival experiences, and selected gear based on practicality and proven use.
“I tried to focus on gear that I have experience with,” North noted. “I didn’t want to get out there and be surprised by a piece of gear that wasn’t up to the hard use I was going to give it.”
The Cache Cap stood out as apparel and a tool, shielding him from the intense desert sun while offering discreet and secure storage for small essentials. “Multi-use items are a big deal out there,” he explained, “especially ones that save calories and add function without extra bulk.”
For Dug, and everyday adventurers alike, that’s the Wazoo difference: gear that works with you—not against you. It’s not just about survival; it’s about clever design that quietly expands your abilities, even in everyday life.
In the full interview, North dives deeper into his mindset, training, gear selection, and powerful takeaways from the experience. He reflects on the mental discipline of solo survival, the rediscovery of self-kindness, and how the challenge reshaped his understanding of human needs and modern life.
“I found that I can be kind to myself and still perform well—perhaps even better,” he said. “It’s unfortunate I didn’t discover this until my 50s, but better late than never.”

Prince of 1500m de Caylus 2025: a great victory for PGM
Sniper rifles PGM Accessories Accessories
Prince of 1500m de Caylus 2025: a great victory for PGM
On June 4, 5, 6 and 7, the 2025 edition of the Prince of 1500m was held in Caylus (Occitanie), one of the main French Long Distance Shooting competitions.
PGM Precision once again took center stage at this competition, which brought together more than 80 French and European long-range shooting teams. Jordan Revel and Silvain Monney, a duo equipped with a PGM Mini Hécate II, brilliantly won first place.
PGM Precision rifles were also the weapons of choice for shooters who placed 3rd and 5th, and the Mini Hécate II was the most popular weapon among shooters who reached the final of the competition.
The Prince of 1500m
The Prince of 1500m is recognized as one of the most important French long-distance shooting competitions.
It is organized every year in Caylus (Occitanie) by the MIKE Group and allows the best TLD teams to compete over distances ranging from 700 to 1500 meters. One of its specific features is that all competitors must shoot with the same .338LM caliber.
The TLD Money Revel team
Winners of the 2025 edition of the Prince of 1500m in Caylus, Silvain and Jordan form one of the most successful teams in TLD competitions and share their impressions and some of their secrets with us in their exclusive interview.
Interview with Jordan and Silvain
The material used
PGM Mini Hecate II
The Jordan and Silvain duo used a Mini Hécate II with a Custom 81 cm barrel in .338 LM caliber
Originally designed for military use, for shooting at distances greater than those of the Ultima Ratio but less than those of the Hécate II, the Mini Hécate II combines exceptional quality, cutting-edge precision and great ergonomics.
Available in numerous calibers (338 Lapua Magnum, 375 Swiss P, 338 NM, 300 NM, 300 PRC), this rifle is offered in a Custom version with profiles and barrel lengths (including the 81cm barrel of the winning team) capable of meeting the demands of the most demanding sport shooters.
Schmidt & Bender 6-36×56 PM II
Jordan and Silvain’s PGM Mini Hécate II is equipped with a Schmidt & Bender 6-36×56 PM II riflescope.
This scope offers the ideal solution for medium and very long range shooting. Its excellent image quality, high resolution, large field of view, and 6x magnification ensure fast and detailed target recognition.
Compact, ergonomic and lightweight, it can be used in the most difficult conditions.
PGM 0° scope mount
Guaranteeing perfect solidarity on your weapon’s Picatinny rail, the PGM scope mount is a benchmark among snipers and sport shooters. Lightweight and robust, it is resistant up to .50 caliber.
ARCA UIT-M-LOK PGM rail
The ARCA UIT-M-LOK PGM rail attaches to UIT and M-LOK interfaces. A standard for long-range shooting, the ARCA interface allows you to mount your weapon on a shooting tripod, but also to attach various accessories such as bipods.

Wishing You A Happy Independence Day!
As the Fourth of July 2025 dawns, the air buzzes with an undeniable sense of anticipation. Beyond the barbecues and brilliant fireworks that will soon light up the night sky, there’s a deeper current of reflection. This year, as we celebrate the 249th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, it feels particularly poignant to consider the enduring ideals it represents.
The spirit of 1776, the courage of those who sought to forge a new path, resonates. It’s a day to appreciate the fundamental freedoms we often take for granted – freedom of speech, assembly, and the pursuit of happiness. Yet, it also serves as a reminder that these liberties weren’t freely given but hard-won, and require continuous safeguarding and thoughtful engagement.
In our diverse nation, the Fourth of July can mean many things to many people. For some, it’s a joyous family reunion; for others, a quiet moment of patriotism. Regardless of how we celebrate, the underlying message of unity amidst our differences, and a shared commitment to a more perfect union, remains paramount. So, as the sparklers fizz and the music plays, may we also take a moment to reflect on the ongoing journey of freedom and the responsibilities that come with it.

Shotgun Pattern Density vs. Pellet Penetration – Syren Savvy has the scoop
Shotgun Pattern Density Vs. Pellet Penetration
“What the heck?! I know I hit that bird, no question!” is a familiar complaint in the hunt field and on the clay course. Often, a shooter assumes she didn’t have the correct sight picture, and consequently, did something wrong. In reality, the sight picture was absolutely correct, but the shot load was incorrect for the quarry or clay presentation. This month, we geek out a bit on what it takes to drop our target, clay or feathered and how to stack the deck in our favor.
Becoming A Collegiate Competition Shooter: Emily Miller
In this three-part series, we explore the journey of three young women, from their humble beginnings in the early part of their shooting careers, to getting serious on the competition circuit and getting scouted, to picking the best school to fit their desired goals. These young women balance a heavy college curriculum with a rigorous team schedule and make the most of their time as collegiate athletes. Whether you are looking to follow a similar path and compete in college, or just curious to learn more about this world, follow along as we delve into the stories of these Syren athletes and their unique journeys.
How to Choose Eye Protection for Shooting
I’ve made the comment, “If you can’t see it, you can’t shoot it,” no less than a million times. The shooting sports revolve around your ability to SEE a target and put the sight picture together correctly. Now, there was an astonishing young lady that was legally blind and shooting for a high school team. She and the coach worked together on having her zero in on a sound played from behind the target to assist her in aiming. It worked! This scenario is on the other end of the spectrum though and brought to your attention to showcase just how incredible we are as a species.
