Aero Precision Makes $100,000 Contribution to NSSF

From NSSF

The NSSF®, the firearm industry’s trade association, is grateful to announce Aero Precision based in Tacoma, Wash., is making a $100,000 donation to the National Shooting Sports Foundation®, the firearm industry trade association. The firearm manufacturer and parts maker hailed the firearm industry trade association’s efforts on behalf of the entire industry to perpetuate recreational shooting, hunting and lawful and responsible firearm ownership.

The entire industry ensured significant challenges throughout 2020 were overcome and manufacturers delivered products to customers in record numbers. Manufacturers, distributors, retailers and ranges navigated obstacles brought by COVID-19 restrictions and overwhelming demand for firearms.

“The NSSF deeply appreciates the investment of this donation by Aero Precision,” said Joe Bartozzi, NSSF President and Chief Executive Officer. “The entire firearm industry worked diligently throughout 2020 against unprecedented challenges. This industry saw 21 million background checks for the sale of a firearm last year, by far the most ever recorded in a single year. It also witnessed an estimated 8.4 million people purchasing a firearm for the first time. The first month of 2021 showed the pace isn’t slowing down and we couldn’t be more appreciative of the support of manufacturers like Aero Precision.”

Aero Precision’s CEO Scott Dover said the decision to support the firearm industry trade association made perfect sense given the work NSSF is doing for all facets of firearm and ammunition manufacturing, distribution and retail.

“The NSSF has been a great partner for our business at each and every turn,” Dover explained. “With the encroaching anti-Second Amendment legislation proposed here in our home state Washington, we are aware now more than ever of the work the NSSF does to support the businesses in our industry. This donation is our recognition of that work and the investment in the future work our entire industry will rely on from the NSSF.”

Galco Silhouette Open-Muzzle Holster

From Galco

Compact, concealable, secure and versatile, the open-muzzle design of the Silhouette™ makes it a favorite of gun carriers who own multiple barrel lengths of the same firearm model.

Hand-molded to fit specific handgun frames, the Silhouette features a reinforced thumb break for security, firing grip accessibility for speed and double-stitched seams for durability. Its unique two-piece construction is contoured on the body side to the natural curve of the hip, keeping all the molding on the front of the holster, allowing for significantly more comfortable carry and a narrower profile than an ordinary pancake type holster. For an expanded discussion on forward molding versus the traditional pancake design, please see our FAQ.

The high riding Silhouette holster is constructed of premium steerhide and is made to fit belts up to 1 3/4″. Made for semiautomatic pistols and double-action revolvers, the Silhouette is available in right or left hand designs in tan or black finish.

Browning A5 Lightning Sweet Sixteen

From Browning

The perfect upland autoloader has arrived. The new Browning A5 Lightning Sweet Sixteen is built for long days in the field hot on the trail of fast flushing upland birds. The most notable feature is the “Lightning-style” buttstock with a relaxed grip angle that offers a quick, instinctive grasp and easy reach to the trigger. The stock is also shim-adjustable for length of pull, cast and drop. This advantage ensures that the shooter and gun will be a great match.

The in-between 16 gauge is, to many hunters, the ideal ammunition for the perfect gun. A well-designed 16 gauge shotgun is closer in weight to a 20 gauge, with a shot payload nearer the 12 gauge, and patterning that bests them both. The A5, with proven Kinematic Drive recoil operation, is built to reliably function with a wide variety of factory game loads, and in a variety of weather conditions.

Features:

Lightning-style Turkish walnut stock features a gloss finish and is shim-adjustable for length of pull, cast and drop
Classic 18 lines-per-inch point pattern checkering
Gloss black anodized receiver finish
Three Invector-DS choke tubes (F, M, IC)
Fiber-optic front sight and ivory mid-bead

High Speed Gear Compact ReVive Medical Pouch

From High Speed Gear

High Speed Gear® is proud to announce the release of the ReVive™ Medical Pouch, the brand’s newest, low-profile medical pouch.

The ReVive is a quick-access, compact pouch built around treating a single gunshot wound. The pouch features the patent-pending RipCord™ insert, which allows the contents to be retrieved with one quick motion. The durable, stretch-woven fabric body allows the ReVive to adapt to the user’s preferred supplies, while the Mini MOLLE backer allows for a precise fit on belts 1.5”-3” in .5” increments, as well as standard MOLLE.

“Many of our users do not have the space, or need, to carry a full-sized IFAK. This pouch is for them,” explained Daniel Chaney, HSGI® senior designer. “The ReVive borrows DNA from its bigger brother, the ReFlex™ IFAK System, and applies it to a more compact package. We included the same thoughtful, user-centric features – instant access to supplies, external glove storage, expansion options for shears and a tourniquet – in a package that fits where a full-sized IFAK will not. We relied heavily on our expert users as we developed the ReVive, zeroing in on the features that will be most appreciated when this product is used in the field.”

This pouch is designed to fit a chest seal, 4” trauma dressing and combat gauze in the removable, self-contained harness, as well as two pairs of nitrile gloves in the two external pockets, trauma shears in the rear slot and a tourniquet on the side lash points.

Streamlight Expands TLR-6 Line

From Streamlight

Streamlight Inc., a leading provider of high-performance lighting and weapon light/laser sighting devices, introduced new laser models of its ultra-compact TLR-6® rail mount weapon light to fit best-selling subcompact handguns, including the Springfield Armory® Hellcat® and the GLOCK® 43X/48 MOS/RAIL.

The company also launched a Non-Laser version of its TLR-6 for SIG SAUER® P365® and P365® XL subcompact handguns. All the new models are designed to securely attach to the rail and trigger guard of subcompact weapons, and to maximize visibility and targeting capability in a variety of concealed carry, home defense and tactical applications.

“Our popular line of TLR-6 weapon lights continues to grow with the addition of more laser-equipped models to fit a variety of popular subcompact guns,” said Streamlight President and Chief Executive Officer Ray Sharrah. “These newest light/laser models not only offer targeted bright light, they also feature a powerful red aiming laser to enable users to more readily identify a potential threat before taking action. And, the Non-Laser version of the TLR-6 for SIG SAUER P365 gives agencies with non-laser policies and other users an ultra-bright weapons light option for the handgun.”

Each of the new models delivers 100 lumens and 2,000 candela over a beam distance of 89 meters, and features a parabolic reflector that produces a balance of beam and peripheral illumination. The laser models offer three lighting modes: LED Only, LED/Laser and Laser Only, with operating run times of one hour for the LED Only and LED/Laser modes, and 11 hours for the Laser Only mode.

The new lights are powered by two (2) 3 Volt CR-1/3N lithium coin batteries. They feature an integrated battery door that permits batteries to be replaced while the light remains mounted on the gun, eliminating the need to re-sight the laser after a battery change.

Each light is manufactured from durable, impact-resistant engineered polymer and is IPX4 rated for water-resistant operation as well as impact-resistant tested to one meter.

Kryptek Partners with S&B on Pair of Obskura Camo Watches

From Kryptek

Kryptek’s edgy and unique Obskura Nox and Oceanus patterns now take the face of S&B Watches.

Available in two styles, the Atlantis Watch and the SANS-13 Tactical Sport Watch, each watch is built, assembled and tested in the USA.

The Atlantis is a fully functional dive watch made of brushed 316-L stainless steel and anti-reflective sapphire crystal. Fully water-resistant up to 300 meters, the Atlantis offers features that function easily no matter the depth, including a screw-down knurled crown, a uni-directional bezel with S&B’s custom-designed ratcheting system and lumed numbering.

Engineered from hundreds of interviews with armed forces and law enforcement members, the SANS-13 Tactical Sport Watch has all the makings of a military favorite – a larger case, a one-directional 120-click ratcheting bezel that can be operated with or without gloves and C3 Superlume on the hands and dial to emit a low-level light, effectively eliminating a potentially compromising overbearing lume.

Both watches come complete with a Kryptek Obskura patterned, durable G10 NATO watch band and a two-year warranty that protects against defects in materials and workmanship. The warranty also covers battery replacements, new seals and pressure testing.

Effective worldwide with multi-environment flexibility, Kryptek Obskura dynamically breaks-up the user’s outline for a lower probability of detection and improves effectiveness of concealment at longer ranges with bolder, well-defined edges that cause abrupt transitions between colors and a multi-directional flow. In summary, the macro-pattern of Kryptek’s original family of patterns became the micro-pattern for Obskura, and elements inspired by the extensively proven Tiger Stripe Camo became the macro-pattern.

Both Kryptek and S&B take pride in the quality of their products, making sure each piece meets a certain standard of excellence. That’s why it was only natural the two partner to offer an exquisite new line of Kryptek Obskura S&B watches.
