Hobie Eyewear Highlights Sustainable Innovation and Sales Success on The Sustainable Angler Podcast
Oceanside, CA (Sep. 4, 2025) – Eyeking LLC brand Hobie® Eyewear recently joined The Sustainable Angler podcast to discuss how its groundbreaking Hull Float sunglasses are reshaping the fishing eyewear market with a sustainability-first approach. Featured guests Dylan Coates, Marketing Manager, and Stephen Vaughan, Senior Director of Product Development, shared insights on the brand’s journey to develop performance eyewear made from upcycled Hobie® kayak plastic and bio-based polarized lenses.
The episode is now available on Emerger Strategies, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and will air locally on Charleston radio station OHM 96.3FM.
“Thanks for bringing a product like this to market,” said Rick Crawford, President of Emerger Strategies & Host of The Sustainable Angler. “We need more brands to demonstrate the business case for sustainability so that we can create a positive impact and enhance our fisheries in the process.”
Hull Float: Performance Meets Purpose
Hull Float sunglasses feature frames made from 100% upcycled Hobie® kayak scrap plastic and lenses derived from castor oil, setting a new standard for sustainable eyewear. True to their name, Hull Float sunglasses float, providing anglers and water adventurers with peace of mind. HydroClean™ 360° polarized lenses reduce glare, provide visual clarity, and provide all-day comfort.
Crafted with purpose and designed to perform. Hull Float is redefining Hobie’s connection to the water.
“Hull Float embodies Hobie’s unwavering commitment to innovation and sustainability,” said Vaughan. “By pushing beyond conventional materials and techniques, we’ve created a sunglass that’s as practical as it is environmentally responsible.”
A Winning Story in the Market
In addition to its sustainability success, Hull Float has quickly proven to be a strong sales driver. The style is the number one seller on Hobie® Eyewear’s direct-to-consumer site and a top choice among independent retailers nationwide.
“Hull Float has proven that consumers value what outdoor brands do for the environment,” said Coates. “Not only is it our top marketing initiative of the year, but it’s also our best-selling style. We encourage other companies to take a more active stance on sustainability because everybody wins when we all commit to protecting the environments we love.”
Expanding Impact Through Conservation
Beyond product innovation, Hobie® Eyewear invests directly in conservation. A portion of every Hull Float sale supports the FishAmerica Foundation, ASA’s conservation and research arm, which has funded over $12 million in projects to restore habitats and ensure the future of sportfishing.
Hobie® Eyewear joined Carl Jocumsen’s 3rd Annual ‘Fear My Heart’ Lake Clean-Up on June 29th, hosting a local event at Jordan Lake, NC as part of their mission to protect waterways and promote sustainability.
Hobie® Eyewear also supports Carl Jocumsen’s Fear My Heart Lake Cleanups. For the launch of the #WorldWideLakeCleanUp, Hobie® Eyewear activated synchronized cleanups at Jordan Lake (NC) and Jones Beach (NY), uniting volunteers nationwide in a shared mission to protect waterways and inspire communities to take action.

High-Powered Energy Weapon Neutralized Dozens of Drones Simultaneously
High-Powered Energy Weapon Neutralized Dozens of Drones Simultaneously
Sep 3, 2025
(Source: iHLS)
Representational image of drones
This post is also available in: 
עברית (Hebrew)
A recent live demonstration by the U.S. Army has highlighted the growing role of directed energy weapons in counter-drone operations. During the exercise at Camp Atterbury, Indiana, a high-powered microwave system known as Leonidas successfully disabled 49 drones in a single operation.
Rather than using interceptors or lasers, the system projects electromagnetic energy to disrupt drone electronics. The result: unmanned aerial systems are rendered non-functional mid-flight, without requiring direct physical impact or traditional jamming techniques.
The system’s wide-area effect allows it to neutralize multiple threats at once, and the system can operate continuously as long as it remains powered, according to NextGenDefense. Unlike laser-based systems that require precise targeting and line of sight, Leonidas operates more broadly and without relying on GPS or radio signal disruption—countering drones that may be operating over mobile data networks or autonomous protocols.
As drone swarms become more common in both state and non-state threats, conventional defensive systems are increasingly seen as insufficient. Interceptor missiles are costly and often not scalable for defending against low-cost, mass-produced drones. Laser weapons, while energy-efficient, are limited to engaging targets one at a time.
Microwave systems like Leonidas are designed to fill that gap. The ability to disable multiple drones simultaneously makes it a potential asset for protecting high-risk areas such as military bases, logistics hubs, airports, or public venues.
The U.S. Army previously awarded a $66 million contract for the development of Leonidas prototypes, which have since been delivered and included in field exercises. Ongoing assessments are focused on how to integrate the system with existing surveillance and kinetic defense platforms.
While the technology is still under evaluation, the demonstration underscores a shift toward scalable, electronic-based countermeasures in response to evolving drone threats. As adversaries adopt more sophisticated and numerous unmanned systems, directed energy weapons may become a standard feature in layered air defense strategies.

Wilson Combat 40th Anniversary NULA
Contact Dealers for Your 40th Anniversary NULA
Forty years ago, Melvin Forbes revolutionized hunting rifles. He did this by removing what didn’t need to be there—heavy stocks, extra metal, sub-par triggers—and gave us all one of the most innovative hunting firearms of modern times: The NULA Model 20.
Forbes dropped rifle weights to unheard of lows by pioneering the use of space-age composites. Not stopping at weight savings, he designed his rifles to an exacting level of precision, giving hunters unfailing accuracy they could depend on. For this, legendary writers like David E. Petzal have called him “…one of the handful of men most responsible for the radical transformation of the American hunting rifle.”
To recognize Forbes’s groundbreaking contributions, we’re proud to release the Wilson Combat 40th Anniversary Melvin Forbes Tribute NULA. This limited-edition rifle is a testament to Melvin Forbes’s mission to build lightweight, accurate firearms, celebrating four decades of innovative craftsmanship that have revolutionized the shooting world.
Offered exclusively in .284 Winchester.
This commemorative rifle is chambered for the versatile .284 Winchester, known for its flat trajectory and excellent long-range capabilities. It features a meticulously crafted tapered barrel with a 1-8.5 twist rate, a Timney Elite Hunter trigger with a smooth 2.75- to 3.25-pound trigger pull, and a redesigned one-piece bolt handle for smoother operation and improved ergonomics.
Following the NULA tradition, each rifle is furnished with an ultra-lightweight AG Composites carbon-fiber stock. This design incorporates reinforced receiver walls, providing enhanced strength without increasing the rifle’s overall weight.
Enthusiasts will recognize Melvin’s beloved striped camo pattern, expertly applied and reintroduced by Wilson Combat’s renowned paint shop as the limited MFT (Melvin Forbes Tribute) woodland camo. This classic pattern—along with the limited laser-engraved floorplate—ensures that each 40th Anniversary Melvin Forbes Tribute NULA is not just a firearm, but a collectible piece of shooting history.

D&M Holding Company Highlights Propellent Manufacturing Capabilities at DSEI
D&M Holding Company Highlights Propellent Manufacturing Capabilities at DSEI
TAMPA, FL (September 2, 2025) – D&M Holding Company, Inc. (D&M), the global leader in delivering complete solutions for ammunition, primer, and propellant manufacturing facilities, will be highlighting its propellant manufacturing capabilities at DSEI UK in London, September 9-12, 2025. This is the UK’s flagship defense event, and the D&M team will be on hand to discuss its propellant manufacturing and other turnkey offerings in Booth # S3-447 in the USA Pavilion. All are welcome to stop by to meet with the D&M team.
D&M and the Ukrainian Defense Industry Joint Stock Company (JSC) recently announced a partnership to produce specialty chemicals in the United States to address the critical shortage of propellant used in the production of ammunition for the Ukrainian defense forces. Prior to this project, D&M built a multi-million-dollar ammunition facility in Ukraine for the Ukraine Defense Industry and has several other projects in the works there, including a primer facility.
“Global demand for reliable supplies of powder and ammunition is soaring as a matter of National Security, and D&M is working nonstop to support the US, NATO countries, and other friendly foreign governments,” said Dan Powers, President and CEO, D&M Holding Company. “We are the only company in the industry that offers solutions for all ammunition components including ammunition factories, primer factories, and propellant factories. We have no competitor that does all three, which is among the many advantages D&M brings to the table.”
In addition to building its own gunpowder plant at its White River Energetics campus in Arkansas, D&M will build turnkey propellant factories for clients to manufacture single base and double base powder for everything from small-caliber ammunition to artillery.
D&M’s goal is to constantly innovate and help its clients become more efficient and grow. Companies and countries that have never been in the propellant, ammunition, or primer business before can rely on D&M’s extraordinary team to handle all aspects of the project from site planning and floor planning to equipment manufacture and installation, in addition to the transfer of knowledge. D&M offers intensive training to its clients and 24/7 support.
“If we can’t fix a problem over the phone, we are on a plane to travel to our customers to assist” said James Jones, Executive Vice President, D&M Holding Company, Inc. “And as we innovate, we offer our clients affordable upgrades without them having to buy new machines. This is an important aspect of supporting their growth.”
D&M has built ammunition factories and delivered equipment in the United States, South America, and Ukraine with more in the works globally, including plans to build plants in Canada to produce nitrocellulose and propellant. D&M is also currently building a single base powder plant for a Southeastern European country with other projects in process.
D&M and WRE support domestic and international clients in the defense and sporting markets. For more information, visit D&M Holding Company and White River Energetics. To schedule a meeting during the show, email sales@dmholding.com.

Chiappa’s 86 Wildlands Angle Ejection Takedown Delivers Power and Portability
Chiappa’s 86 Wildlands Angle Ejection Takedown Delivers Power and Portability
Dayton, OH (September 2, 2025) – A great firearm comes from heritage and prestige, with a cultivated history sought after over other options. Nothing fits that definition better than the lever-action rifle. The design has been cemented into culture since its inception and requires few, if any, changes. Chiappa continues the tradition with the 86 Wildlands Angle Ejection Takedown, a firearm worth the heritage and a close look.
The 86 Wildlands Angle Ejection Takedown is a modern take on the old lever-action classic. Chambered in 45/70, it is a fully capable rifle that moves to add modern characteristics. Built with a 1:18 twist 16.5-inch barrel and a magazine tube capacity of 4+1, it is a heavy hitter that can easily follow up, shot after shot. The barrel is 5/8×24 threaded to attach muzzle devices, accept thread protectors, recoil mitigation devices, or suppressors.
The stock is skeletonized with an adjustable comb and outfitted with an attachment point for accessories or cartridge holders. An integrated adjustable cheek rest allows for precise comfort. The forend is made from overbuilt aluminum with M-LOK adaptability and features an over receiver rail for optics attachments. The lever is wrapped in black paracord for easy use and comfortable operation.
The 86 Wildlands Angle Ejection Takedown is finished in a matte blued style, adding a tactical look and style. Once fired, spent cases are ejected to the side, accommodating any optic. The main distinguishing characteristic of the rifle is the takedown feature, allowing the rifle to be separated into two pieces, connecting to the receiver’s front. Users can mount a scope on the rear portion of the picatinny rail and disassemble the rifle without removing the scope, making the 86 Wildlands Takedown perfect for easy carrying and storage while retaining full rifle functions. When assembled, quick connections are located on various rifle points for quick sling attachment and removal.
The 86 Wildlands Angle Ejection Takedown is not just any lever action, but one to carry, use, and bestow.

Built for the Podium, Tuned for Precision: Hatsan Unleashes the Factor Sniper Long and TacBoss Competition PCPs
Built for the Podium, Tuned for Precision: Hatsan Unleashes the Factor Sniper Long and TacBoss Competition PCPs
Rogers, AR (September 2, 2025) – The distance between range-day practice and match-day dominance just got shorter. Hatsan’s new competition-grade PCP rifles—the Factor Sniper Long and TacBoss—are not just built for performance; each rifle is built to win. Whether dialing in tight groups at 100 yards or chasing personal bests in local matches, these rifles offer full adjustability, serious air capacity, and the kind of precision that separates the gear-heads from the guessers.
Factor Sniper Long
The Factor Sniper Long is Hatsan’s flagship precision rifle, overbuilt by design. Available in .22, .25, .30, and .35 calibers, it brings significant power in a match-ready platform. A fully adjustable hammer preload and externally adjustable regulator enable fine-tuned power curves to match the preferred pellet of choice and shooting conditions. Whether launching .22s at 1050 FPS or sending .35 caliber slugs downrange at 169 foot-pounds of energy, this rifle makes no apologies and takes no shortcuts.
Everything about the Factor Sniper Long screams modularity and control. The side-lever action is smooth and reversible for ambidextrous use. The Quattro 2-stage match trigger offers vertical and horizontal adjustment on the trigger shoe, and the ergonomic wood pistol grip is built for long, deliberate shot strings. Onboard, a 700cc carbon fiber bottle, a 100cc pre-air chamber, and dual pressure gauges—one for the main cylinder and another for the regulator—permit competition shooters to always know what is happening under the hood. The Factor Sniper Long was made for the shooter who logs data, monitors trajectory, and chases perfection.
View the Piledriver’s full features and specs here.
TacBoss
The TacBoss is less of a sniper tower and more of a mobile marksman platform. Built for those who prefer compact, purpose-built precision, the TacBoss is a competition-focused PCP with just the right amount of muscle. Available in .22 and .25 calibers, it offers up to 37 foot-pounds of energy, backed by a 580cc carbon fiber tank and the same dual-gauge monitoring system found on its bigger sibling. The externally adjustable regulator allows users to tailor the power output to match ammo and application, whether 10-meter silhouettes or 100-yard steel.
Function meets flexibility with a customizable 3-way adjustable, lightweight side-folding aluminum stock. Add in an adjustable cheek rest, competition butt plate compatibility, and two built-in magazine storage slots in the stock, and this rifle is engineered with stage shooting in mind. The precision-rifled and choked barrel, QuietEnergy sound suppression, and ½ UNF threaded muzzle ensure both stealth and accuracy, as follow-up shots are not always guaranteed.
Both rifles are built on aluminum frames with integrated combination rails for 11mm dovetails and 22mm Weaver mounts, and a Picatinny rail beneath the forearm for bipods or other accessories. Magazine capacities span from 21 rounds in .22 to 13 rounds in .35 (Sniper Long) and 16 to 14, depending on caliber (TacBoss). Each rifle includes two detachable magazines, a Foster fill fitting, and a patented anti-knock system that keeps things quiet at the match or range.
The Factor Sniper Long and TacBoss are not backyard plinkers. Each rifle is tuned, tested, and built to compete—whether a formal match or an unofficial grudge game at the range. The Factor Sniper Long and TacBoss raise the bar for competition air rifles.
View the TacBoss full features and specs here.

Special Forces Trust Welcomes Andy’s Fund to Strengthen Mental Health and Suicide Prevention Efforts for the Green Beret Community
Special Forces Trust Welcomes Andy’s Fund to Strengthen Mental Health and Suicide Prevention Efforts for the Green Beret Community
Southern Pines, NC — August 30, 2025 — Special Forces Trust is proud to announce a formal partnership with the Marckesano Family, marking the next chapter for Andy’s Fund. Through this partnership, Andy’s Fund will now operate under the umbrella of the Special Forces Trust, ensuring its mission is supported by an organization deeply embedded within the Special Forces community, and deeply committed to mental health.
Created in honor of MSG Andrew Marckesano, a highly decorated Green Beret, Andy’s Fund exists to combat the mental health crisis within the Special Forces community — with a sharp focus on root-cause treatment of traumatic brain injuries (TBIs), post-traumatic stress (PTS), and the challenges of alcohol and drug abuse. Since Andy’s passing on July 7, 2020, the Fund has worked tirelessly to drive culture change, address stigma, and connect Green Berets to life-saving resources.
“By joining with Special Forces Trust, we are strengthening the reach, trust, and impact of Andy’s Fund,” said Kathryn Marckesano, Gold Star Mother of MSG Marckesano. “The Trust’s deep relationships with the Special Forces community and leadership make them the ideal home for this mission. Together, we can save lives.”
On August 23 at the Hope & Purpose Ball in Florida, Special Forces Trust CEO Jodi Burns reflected on the personal significance of this partnership: “Andy Marckesano’s death shook me. It was the reason I built Beyond the Battlefield, our suicide prevention and invisible wounds platform. It’s so ironic—and at the same time, so fitting—that a few years later, we would now be partnering directly with the Marckesano Family. The Trust is both honored and deeply moved to carry Andy’s name forward in this mission.”
The partnership will allow Andy’s Fund to expand its grant programs, increase access to advanced treatment options, and host annual initiatives aimed at prevention, resilience, and recovery within the Green Beret community.

AI Web Builders Are Fueling a Rise in Phishing Sites, Say Researchers
AI Web Builders Are Fueling a Rise in Phishing Sites, Say Researchers

The rapid rise of AI-powered web development tools has made it easier than ever to create functional websites with minimal technical expertise. But recent research suggests that these same tools are being repurposed by cybercriminals to run large-scale phishing operations.
According to a report from cybersecurity firm Proofpoint, attackers are leveraging an AI platform called Lovable to build and deploy phishing websites at scale. Lovable, which allows users to generate websites using simple text prompts, has seen a surge in malicious use, with tens of thousands of malicious URLs detected each month since early 2025.
The platform’s ease of use is a major factor. Even free-tier users can replicate public sites, swap in a new logo, and quickly launch phishing pages. This allows one phishing template to multiply into hundreds of copycat campaigns with little effort.
Proofpoint tracked several attack campaigns using Lovable-hosted websites. These included fake Microsoft login pages for credential theft, counterfeit CAPTCHA challenges, shipping company impersonations targeting payment data, and bogus DeFi platforms used to trick victims into connecting crypto wallets. Other examples involved malware disguised as legitimate software installers, which then infected users with remote access trojans.
This trend falls under a growing practice called “vibe coding”—a term describing how AI-generated code is often built based on broad inputs without concern for long-term maintainability or security. While the technology lowers the barrier to web development, it also generates poorly structured or vulnerable code that attackers can exploit.
Researchers warn that AI-generated websites often lack proper security controls and can easily be repurposed by malicious actors. Because these tools automate much of the work traditionally required to create a phishing campaign, attackers can now devote more attention to social engineering and payload delivery.
While Lovable has acknowledged the issue and says it’s working on mitigation strategies, the broader concern remains: as AI tools continue to democratize coding, they also risk making cyberattacks more accessible. Security experts urge developers of such platforms to implement stronger safeguards against misuse.

NEW ARRIVAL: SP5L
The Heckler & Koch MP5 is arguably the most imitated pistol-caliber carbine in the world. But even a pretty good copy is still just a copy. The truth is, you can only get a real HK from HK.
And now there is finally an authentic sporting version of the MP5 in the US, and it’s a real HK. The New SP5 will make all those generic MP5 copies out there look like nothing more than gun store consolation prizes.
SP5L Elite is exclusive through SportsSouth with a limited run of 1200 units. Includes exclusive Midwest Industries full-length M-LOK aluminum handguard with integrated QD sockets SB Tactical SBT5 Arm Brace.
