North Haven, CT – Two of the keys to successful personal defensive training are selecting a properly-equipped firearm that you can depend on, and a trainer who has the real-world experience to prepare you to confidently use that defensive tool. Mossberg continues its partnership with Marine Corps veteran and former SWAT team member, Clint Smith, who serves as President and Director of Thunder Ranch training facility in Lakeview, Oregon, by adding three new Thunder Ranch firearms designed for personal defense or competitive shooting. Introducing the Thunder Ranch Series for 2013, the 500® Thunder Ranch 20th Anniversary Pump-Action 12-gauge shotgun, the Maverick® HS12™ Thunder Ranch Over-and-Under 12-gauge shotgun and the 5.56mm NATO-chambered MVP™ Thunder Ranch Bolt-Action rifle. All are proudly branded with the Thunder Ranch logo or the Thunder Ranch 20th Anniversary logo.

500 Thunder Ranch 20th Anniversary Pump-Action Shotgun – This compact 12-gauge (2 ¾ and 3-inch shell capability) featuring an 18 ½-inch barrel, shortened synthetic stock with a 13-inch length of pull and 6-round total capacity was initially introduced in 2012, as the 500 Thunder Ranch. To recognize the 20th Anniversary of the Smiths’ world-renowned training facility, the 2013 version of the 500 Thunder Ranch is emblazoned with the distinctive “Thunder Ranch 20th Anniversary” logo. Key features include a fixed cylinder bore for optimal pattern densities; a machined stand-off/breaching barrel design; simple white-dot sighting system; tri-rail forend Picatinny rail system (integrated bottom rail and removable side rails) for quick addition of tactical accessories or lights; and decreased overall length of 37 inches for added maneuverability. All exposed metalwork has a non-reflective matte blue finish and the durable stock and forend feature a matte black finish and sling swivel studs. Completing this tactical shotgun package is a handy, black padded sling. MSRP: $493

Maverick HS12 Thunder Ranch Over-and-Under Shotgun – Known for delivering exceptional value in a no-nonsense package, the Maverick HS12 is a 3-inch chambered, 12-gauge break-action shotgun featuring robust dual-locking lugs for a strong, secure lock-up and maximum reliability. Operation is simple with the tang-mounted safety and integrated barrel selector. Key features of the Thunder Ranch HS12 include fixed cylinder bore in both barrels; shortened 18 ½-inch barrel length; receiver-mounted Picatinny rail and barrel-mounted Picatinny side rails for the attachment of optics, lights or accessories; and for quick target acquisition, the top rail is slotted to work in conjunction with the front fiber optic sight. The black matte-finished synthetic stock and forend are contoured for a more solid grip and better handling and all exposed metalwork wears a matte blue finish. The “Thunder Ranch” logo is engraved on the right side of the receiver. MSRP: $549

MVP Thunder Ranch Bolt-Action Rifle – MVP Series rifles are based on the classic Mossberg 4×4™ bolt-action platform but feature the patent-pending Drop-Push bolt design allowing the rifle to accept and reliably feed from standard AR-style magazines. Other standard features include our user-adjustable, patented LBA™ (Lightning Bolt Action™) Trigger System easily adjusted from 2 to 7 pounds; distinctive spiral-fluted bolt; factory-installed, receiver-mounted Picatinny rail; dual front and rear sling swivel studs; and 10-round capacity magazine. The MVP Thunder Ranch is chambered in 5.56mm NATO (223 Rem) optimized with a 1:9 twist rate in the 18 ½-inch medium bull, fluted barrel. The barrel is threaded and comes with a thread cap. Housed in a durable wood stock, the MVP Thunder Ranch features a distinctive OD Green finish and complementing matte blue metalwork. Completing the package is the “Thunder Ranch” logo engraved above the magazine well on the right side of the stock. MSRP: $934

Regardless of the mission, selecting a properly-equipped firearm and securing individualized training are primary keys to your success. Now Mossberg, in conjunction with Clint Smith, is providing you with three well-designed firearms for personal defensive training or for use in competitive shooting – the Mossberg Thunder Ranch Series.

Trijicon TARS Receives NRA Golden Bullseye Award from American Rifleman Magazine

Posted on by

Wixom, MI -The Trijicon TARS (Tactical Advanced Riflescope) has received the 2013 NRA Golden Bullseye Award for “Optic of the Year” from American Rifleman Magazine.

The NRA Publications Golden Bullseye Awards acknowledge the finest products available in the shooting sports. The winners are selected by a seven-member committee consisting of editors, graphic designers and veteran NRA Publications staff, representing more than a century of collective experience in the shooting and hunting industry. To qualify for consideration for a Golden Bullseye Award, a product must have been:

Recently introduced and available to consumers prior to the selection of the
Golden Bullseye Awards
Used/tested by a staff member or regular contributor to the magazine and/or affiliated media
Reliable in the field, meeting or exceeding the evaluator’s expectations
Innovative in design and function
Readily perceived as a value to the purchaser
Styled in a manner befitting the shooting and hunting industry and, perhaps more importantly, its enthusiasts

“We are honored that American Rifleman has selected the TARS to receive the NRA Golden Bullseye Award”, said Tom Munson, Trijicon Vice President of Sales and Marketing. “Our goal was to develop a precision, long range, illuminated riflescope with all the rugged durability of our legendary ACOG.”

The Trijicon TARS is a 3-15x variable magnification, 50mm-objective, illuminated-reticle optic designed for tactical and sporting rifles. Premium-grade optics, exact adjustments, and innovative reticle systems allow users to engage targets at extreme ranges.

Best-quality Schott glass is fully Mil Spec multi-coated to allow maximum light transmission. Advances in optical engineering have produced a generous 3.3 inches of constant eye relief while decreasing overall scope length to 13.9 inches. Its 3x to 15x magnification range make it a viable choice for myriad applications, from LE and military operations to benchrest competition to varmint and big-game hunting.

The TARS features an innovative illuminated-reticle system with 10 levels of intensity, including two for use with night-vision optics. Its non-forward emitting LED illuminated reticle is much more efficient than current systems; One CR2032 battery provides up to 175 hours of use (setting 6, Day 1). Three reticle choices are available-an intuitive MOA reticle (Model 101), Trijicon-exclusive JW mil reticle (102) and a duplex reticle for traditional hunting applications (103 and 104). All are located in the first focal plane, so subtension values remain constant across the magnification range.

A robust, 34mm main tube machined from aircraft-grade aluminum combined with Trijicon’s mil-spec construction ensure TARS can handle severe recoil in the harshest environments. It is waterproof to 66 feet. Hydrophobic coatings on exposed lenses ensure clarity in wet conditions. Finger-adjustable turrets feature patent-pending lockable, tactile click adjustments for positive tracking and repeatability. A side-mounted parallax dial focuses from 40 yards to infinity. Removable Tenebraex flip-up range caps and sunshade are included.

NRA Publications will present its annual Golden Bullseye Awards at a special breakfast at the 2013 Annual Meetings & Exhibits in Houston, Texas on Friday, May 3, 2013.

Swarovski Optik Announces 4W Reticle in Z6 (i) Rifle Scopes

Posted on by

Cranston, Rhode Island – SWAROVSKI OPTIK NORTH AMERICA announces a new reticle to the Z6(i) rifle scope line. The 4W reticle is a wind compensating reticle that is designed to be used in conjunction with the Ballistic Turret (BT), which will now be available in the Z6(i) model rifle scopes.

The new 4W Reticle allows the shooter, or hunter, to dial in the correct elevation needed for a shot with the Ballistic Turret (BT) system, and then be able to compensate for wind utilizing the vertical marks along the crosshair of the reticle. These marks are placed in 2 MOA (Minute of Angle) increments.

In late 2011, the 4W Reticle was introduced in our Z5 and Z3, Ballistic Turret (BT) series rifle scopes. Due to the overwhelming consumer demand for the 4W Reticle with BT system, the 4W and new 4W-I (illuminated) Reticle will now be offered in select Z6(i) BT models.

“Due to the incredible demand of the 4W Reticle with our BT turret system, SWAROVSKI OPTIK is proud to offer the 4W/BT combination in our 30 mm tube Z6(i) series. For the target shooter or hunter, the 4W Reticle with either the BT or Custom BT is the ultimate long range combination to compensate for bullet drop and wind,” says Tom Hogan, Senior Technical Advisor for SWAROVSKI OPTIK NORTH AMERICA.

Wind compensation is dependent on wind velocity, wind angle, ballistic coefficients and muzzle velocities. Wind “hold-off” in MOA can be determined from two SWAROVSKI OPTIK sources: The free SWAROVSKI OPTIK Ballistic Program app for I-Phones and Androids-Wind MOA calculations can be made in the field with current conditions. The SWAROVSKI OPTIK Ballistic Program is also available at our website WWW.SWAROVSKIOPTIK.COM.

Meopta Flip-Open Binocular Eyepiece Covers

Posted on by
Reply

 

HAUPPAUGE, NY- Meopta USA, a global leader in precision sports optics, introduces the new MeoCapTM flip-open binocular eyepiece covers. These innovative individual eyepiece covers protect vulnerable ocular lenses while hunting in rough terrain, hiking or attending a favorite sporting event and, when flipped open for use, shield eyes from peripheral light entering between the user’s eyes and the binocular. Those who have spent a lot of time glassing know how much light interference can diminish the viewing experience and, for those who wear eyeglasses, it can be even more uncomfortable.

“This accessory exemplifies the type of innovative solutions that drive our business at Meopta,” said Reinhard Seipp, general manager and COO of Meopta USA. “High-end optics manufacturers, including ourselves, spend millions on R&D trying to squeeze every last ounce of transmission through a binocular but too often all that effort is nullified in the field by stray light entering between the eyes and the ocular. This simple solution solves this problem and allows the user to enjoy the full benefit of our amazing glass.”

Meopta’s MeoCap eyepiece covers with LightFoil technology work with most full-size binoculars on the market today and open outward to form a barrier between the user’s eyes and any peripheral light trying to enter the eyecups. The result is an amazingly bright, clear, relaxing and distraction-free view.

MeoCap Key Features

- Tough ABS construction is durable and weatherproof. Simple hinge system contains no metal parts or springs to lose or break. Caps close securely for total lens protection.

- Flip-open covers improve the optical performance of any binocular by blocking peripheral light from entering between the user’s eyes and the eyecups.

- Makes viewing more comfortable by reducing eyestrain. Improves contrast by isolating your subject from outside light interference. Perfect for eyeglass wearers.

- Proprietary fit system uses unique radially aligned inserts to provide a positive grip onto the eyecup and can be changed to fit a wide variety of eyecup sizes.

- Sculpted, form-fitting design adds less than half a millimeter to the eyecup surface for no reduction in eye relief.

MSRP: $23.99
