Delta Waterfowl Welcomes Black Rifle Coffee Company as New ‘Champion of Delta’ Corporate Sponsor

BISMARCK, NORTH DAKOTA—Black Rifle Coffee Company, widely-known for their explosive roasts, stands strongly behind The Duck Hunters Organization as a NEW ‘Champion of Delta’ Corporate Sponsor.

“Black Rifle Coffee Company is proud to support Delta Waterfowl and their efforts with conservation of waterfowl and the opportunities to continue the hunt,” said Morgan Mason, hunting marketing manager for Black Rifle. “Service is a foundational element of BRCC as we are founded by Special Operations veterans with multiple deployments. We’re excited as a brand to continue our legacy of service through wildlife conservation with Delta Waterfowl.”

Launched in 2014 by a former Green Beret, their service-driven mission is rooted in support of veterans, law enforcement, and first responders. Offering a wide-variety of coffee, apparel, and gear, a militant level of attention and care promises the consumer high-quality products. Yet, the brand stands for much more.  

BRCC attributes much of their success to the unmatched work ethic of their veteran employees, their commitment to hire 10,000 veterans, providing opportunities to those seeking to follow their own entrepreneurial journeys, and supporting service members and conservation efforts through the company’s own non-profit foundation, The BRCC Fund. 

“Only great things can come from this collaboration with Black Rifle Coffee Company,” said Brad Heidel, senior director of marketing and corporate relations for Delta Waterfowl. “Being veteran-owned, their dedication, loyalty, and tangible support of their community—as well as the great outdoors—deeply resonates with The Duck Hunters Organization.

SRS-X Elite Buttstock Weight

MDT Sporting Goods Ltd. Announces a New Weight for the SRS-X Elite buttstock.

MDT is excited to announce the launch of our new SRS-X Elite Buttstock Weight.

This weight is designed to fit the new MDT SRS-X Elite buttstock, found on the MDT ACC Elite. It will add about 0.75 lb to the rear of your rifle in order to properly balance your chassis system. As the weight is fairly far from the standard center of gravity of the chassis, it has a profound effect on balance and is recommended for competitors wanting to offset the weight of an MTU/Straight barrel or heavier muzzle device.

The weight is specific to the corresponding pocket on the SRS-X Elite and attaches via 2x #10-24 screws from the backside of the weight, via the buttstock. It has clearance built in for cheek riser guide rods and shouldn’t affect any other functions of the buttstock when installed. It will replace one of the buttstock jellies and cannot be used in conjunction with all 5 of that set.

The SRS-X Elite MDT Buttstock Weight is now available at a price of $79.95 USD. SKU 106846-BLK

Q30 Innovations Adds Vice Admiral Szymanski and Lieutenant General Mulholland to Military Board of Advisors

WESTPORT, CT (January 16, 2023) – Q30 Innovations is pleased to announce the additions of Vice Admiral Tim Szymanski and Lieutenant General John Mulholland to its Board of Military Advisors. The company continues to see increased adoption of the Q-Collar throughout the military as more warfighters experience the benefits of the product designed and proven to reduce brain injury caused by repetitive subconcussive impacts. 

By adding these two new members to its Board of Military Advisors, Q30 hopes to drive increased awareness for a broad range of military and law enforcement applications and continue to advance additional research around the product’s effectiveness in military-specific scenarios, including reducing brain injury caused by blast waves. 

“As we continue to see adoption of the Q-Collar by military servicemen and women, Vice Admiral Szymanski and Lieutenant General Mulholland will provide valuable experience and firsthand military knowledge to our mission to help protect men and women who are at risk of traumatic brain injuries,” said Q30’s Co-CEO Tom Hoey. “We are proud and extremely honored to be supported by these decorated veterans who share our concern for the health and well-being of those who serve.”

Vice Admiral Tim Szymanski (Ret)

Vice Adm. Szymanski has served in a number of Navy and Joint Special Operations assignments as a Navy Special Warfare Officer (SEAL) for over 36 years. He most recently served as the Deputy Commander for United States Special Operations Command after previously serving as the Commander of Naval Special Warfare. In both roles he oversaw the manning, equipping and training, and employment of NSW and joint special operations forces. 

In addition to his dedicated time in the service, he also led initiatives to improve human performance and protect brain health across special operations. Szymanski developed programs to enhance cognitive performance and established policies to monitor and protect brain health improving the welfare and operational readiness of all special operations forces and their families. 

“Q30 has an innovative product that, in my opinion, from all of the clinical research, can potentially reduce the long term effects of impact and blast exposure. The potential to significantly improve the welfare of our service members pushed me to join the Q30 team,” said Szymanski.

SilencerCo Launches New Low Back-Pressure Suppressor — The Velos LBP

SilencerCo Shakes Up Low Blow-Back Suppressor Market With New Velos LBP

January 16, 2023 — West Valley City, UT — SilencerCo is excited to announce the release of their new low back-pressure suppressor, the Velos LBP. It offers exceptional sound performance for the 5.56 caliber with minimized back pressure to host firearms. As a result, shooters will experience less gas blow-back. The Velos LBP will be available soon through SilencerCo dealers

This hard-use suppressor was constructed through a unique manufacturing process utilizing a 3D printed Inconel 625 core that is fully welded to 17-4 Stainless Steel front and rear modules. This makes the Velos LBP unlike any other low blow-back suppressor on the market. It’s also SilencerCo’s most durable suppressor yet, partially due to the inclusion of their patented Hoplon Blast Baffle. The Hoplon Baffle deflects debris, increasing the lifespan of the suppressor on short-barreled and full-auto firearms. 

“Our goal was to bring the best balance of sound performance, strength, and reduced impact to the host firearm’s operating system. We’ve created a product that does just that. There is no compromising sound or flash performance with the Velos LBP. The inclusion of our Hoplon blast baffle design and no barrel restrictions confirms the Velos LBP will handle whatever you choose to throw at it. It’s the low back-pressure silencer your semi and fully automatic firearms have been waiting for. ”

The Velos LBP is finished with a V-Series Cerakote to withstand extremely high temperatures that come with high rates of fire. It also ships with SilencerCo’s new Internal Charlie Flash Hider Front Cap to minimize flash while maintaining a flat front-cap look. To top it off, the Velos LBP is covered by SilencerCo’s lifetime warranty.

Mike Arnold to Sign Copies of Bringing Back the Lions at theHouston Safari Club Convention January 20-22, 2023

WATKINSVILLE, GA (Jan. 16, 2023) — At this year’s Houston Safari Club Convention, January 20-22, 2023, at the George R. Brown Convention Center, noted author Mike Arnold, a Distinguished Research Professor of Genetics at the University of Georgia, will be signing copies of his groundbreaking new book, Bringing Back the Lions: International Hunters, Local Tribespeople, and the Miraculous Rescue of a Doomed Ecosystem in Mozambique.


Arnold will be in the Zambeze Delta Safari Booth #811 signing his books with acclaimed African professional hunter and conservationist Mark Haldane, owner of Zambeze Delta Safari, on the following dates and times: Friday, Jan. 20th from 9:00 am – 11:00 am and 2:00pm – 4:00 pm; Saturday, Jan. 21st from 9:00 am – 11:00 am and 2:00 pm-4:00 pm; and Sunday, Jan. 22nd from 10:00 am-1:00 pm.

Arnold’s highly acclaimed Bringing Back the Lions details how a small group of professional hunters, including Haldane, spearheaded a near-30-year effort to return a once-incredible wildlife paradise from a decimated and near-barren landscape to one of the world’s premier wildlands – the area of Mozambique known as Coutada 11. Coutada 11 is an official concession covering 2000 square kilometers (approximately 772 square miles) of some of the most diverse habitat and animal species in Africa. This area is one of the few remaining in Africa where one can still do a classical African Safari.

A life-long hunter who has traveled the globe, Arnold has published hundreds of research articles and four books on a variety of topics, including conservation biology. Publications such as Science Magazine, The New York Times, and National Public Radio continue calling Mike for interviews covering his research. Earlier this year he attended the 20th annual meeting of the African Wildlife Consultative Forum in Maputo, Mozambique, where he was honored to be able to present a copy of his book to the Honorable Carlos dos Santos, Mozambique Ambassador to the United States.

You can pick up a copy of Mike’s signed book at the Houston Safari convention, or conveniently order your own from www.Amazon.comhttps://www.barnesandnoble.com/, and other fine booksellers. For more information on Dallas Safari Club and their 2023 convention, visit https://www.biggame.org/

CZ P-10 OR SR Pistols – Two Optics-Ready & Suppressor-Ready Models From CZ-USA

Kansas City, KS (January 19, 2023) – New for the US market in 2023, CZ USA introduces two optics-ready and suppressor-ready P-10 pistols to its lineup. The full-sized P-10 F OR SR and compact P-10 C OR SR models inherit all the performance-driven features of the P-10 series. 

Like all P-10 series pistols, CZ engineered the P-10 OR SR models for reliability, outstanding accuracy, extended service life, and shooting comfort. The barrel and fiberglass-reinforced frame and slide feature an incredibly durable finish, protecting them from mechanical damage and the elements. 

Both pistols feature a modified slide for attaching a red dot sight and an extended barrel with 1/2“×28 threads for mounting a suppressor. Both models ship with extended mag bases, adding two rounds to the standard mag capacity. OR SR pistols come equipped with iron sights with three luminescent dots for quick and intuitive aiming in low light. The iron sights co-witness perfectly with an RMR mounted on the slide. And their chamfered edges ensure smooth handling.

Ergonomics and comfort are at the forefront of the P-10 OR SR’s design. Deep serrations on the front and rear of the slide improve grip for ease of operation, while prominent grip checkering provides superb shooting comfort, stability, and safety. CZ also includes three interchangeable backstraps for customizing fit and reach to the trigger. 

Shooters will love the ambidextrous features of the P-10 pistols. A flat ambidextrous slide stop suits right- and left-handed shooters while allowing for comfortable handling with the non-dominant hand; the flat design makes it ideal for concealed carry. A swappable magazine release is fast, intuitive, and comfortable on either side. The P-10 OR SR’s sophisticated grip and checkering incorporate the modern ergonomic design for a sure grip and a user-friendly experience.

SPYPOINT LM2 BUILDS ON LEGACY OF PERFORMANCE & VALUE

The SPYPOINT LM2 is the evolution of the revolution. No company has done more to change the face of trail camera technology over the last two decades than SPYPOINT, and the LM2 is the next model that challenges functionality and affordability so any hunter that wants to use this technology has it available. 

“Big performance in a compact, affordable package. That’s what the LM2 represents,” remarked Alex McElhaw ahead of the product launch at the ATA show in Indianapolis. “There is a lot of power in this little camera, and we expect it to be a critical piece of scouting and planning for a lot of hunters this fall,” he added. 

The LM2 offers hunters 20MP photos so no detail is missed while scouting. While the new LM2 antenna maximizes available signal in a given area, ensuring that those photos are viewable in the app to help hunters plan their hunt better than ever before. The half-second trigger speed and 90-foot detection and flash range make it harder for even the wariest of bucks to make it past the LM2 without getting their picture taken.

Combine that with our plan offerings, including a free option, it doesn’t matter if you’re the most dedicated hunter in the county or just starting out, SPYPOINT has a solution that works for you.
