Cincinnati, OH 03 JUNE-2014 – Vertx® Apparel announces the addition of female Competitive Tactical Precision Rifle Shooter, Co-Host of Trigger Time TV and tactical writer, Melissa Gilliland, to the Vertx Pro Staff team.

She is able to give us the female perspective which is critical to us as we move forward in the tactical apparel market.”
Well known for competing in Tactical Precision Rifle Shooting competitions, Gilliland tried her hand at competitive shooting in 2012 with husband 1SG, former ranger and record-holding Army Sniper, Jim Gilliland at the PTS Team match in Cookeville, Tennessee. In the past two years, The Second Amendment advocate, mother of four children and U.S. Military supporter has made quite the name for herself, having acquired over 245,000 Facebook likes by top shooting industry professionals. Never one to slow down, Gilliland also works closely in the firearms industry, working as a contributing writer for Personal and Family Defense Centers on America, www.BreachBangClear.com, SureShots Magazine, and most recently Gunsamerica.com.
“Vertx has the most comfortable tactical clothes on the market. I have worn other brands in the past at my competitions and Vertx has the best female fit,” said Gilliland. They are designed for the female body so the fit is perfect and comfortable.”
Although well known for her competitive rifle shooting capabilities, Gilliland’s other achievements include co-hosting Seasons 3 and 4 of Trigger Time TV and co-owning Shadow 6 Consulting with her husband Jim. Gilliland is also a proud supporter of www.AmericanSnipers.com, where she has modeled professionally in Tactical Girls calendars for over 3 years to help support and sponsor snipers across the Country.
Gilliland plans expanding her match schedule to include national tactical rifle competitions through the US throughout 2014, and although admitting to being one of the few women competitors who regularly competes at competitive rifle competitions, she is never one to shy away from fear.

A collective of highly skilled and experienced hunters who spend much of the year creating video of their hunts for a regular segment on the Sportsman Channel, Outback Outdoors is an ideal partner for this collaboration.
“We’ve been making outdoor gear for over 50 years so when we set out to create a line of dedicated hunting gear, we already knew what works well for backpacking and camping,” said Russell Rowel, Vice President of SJK Hunting. “Since hunters have very specific gear needs, we wanted to get as much input as possible from highly experienced backcountry hunters. That’s why we partnered with Outback Outdoors. They have the knowledge, experience, and passion to help us create some of the most functional hunting gear on the market.”
Outback Outdoors is a team of three experienced hunters and outdoorsmen, including Trevon Stoltzfus, Adam Wells, and Dave Beronio. Blending a passion for the hunt with a desire to bring a fresh perspective to the world of hunting videos, this team of hunting industry professionals spends hundreds of days each season hunting, filming, and now working with SJK Hunting’s new line of hunting gear.
SJK Hunting’s new for 2014 line incorporates proven hunting features and functionality into every product. Lightweight materials, durable construction, cutting edge Kryptek camouflage, and an extensive amount of input from the highly experienced team at Outback Outdoors combine to create some of the most cutting edge backpacks, treestand bags, and accessories available.
SJK Hunting launched their first ever line of hunting specific backpacks, treestand bags, and accessories at the annual SHOT Trade Show in Salt Lake City on January 14, 2014. Retail availability is scheduled for summer 2014.
