Daniel Horner Wins 3-Gun Nation Pro Series Championship With PROOF Research Carbon-Fiber Barrel
Monday, November 10th, 2014Daniel Horner, a Staff Sergeant from the US Army Marksman Unit recently won the 2014 3-Gun Nation Pro Series Championship using a PROOF Research Carbon-Fiber Barrel. The full release can be read below:
Tulsa, OK / October 25, 2014 – Horner, a Staff Sergeant from the U.S. Army Marksman Unit (AMU) battled 32 of the nation’s top 3-Gun competitors for the National Champion title, including two exciting final man-on-man elimination matches against fellow AMU Shooting Team member, Sgt. Matthew Sweeney.
The 2014 3-Gun Nation (3GN) Pro Series Championship Finale was the culmination of a six-event series held throughout the year, in which shooters competed in the same division, Tactical Optics, in a heads-up points race to qualify for the season-ending finale and a shot at the crown.
After having switched from a 12.5” steel barrel just weeks before, Horner used a 16” PROOF Research carbon fiber barrel to dominate the rifle portion of the match. “We are incredibly excited for Daniel,” stated a PROOF Research representative. “Competition at this level is decided in 10ths of seconds and one point at a time. For Daniel to have chosen our barrel for the Finale is a real honor.”
Horner’s win makes him the only competitor to have won two 3GN Championships since the series began in 2010. In addition to his title Horner took home a $50,000 check courtesy of Leupold Tactical Optics and NRA Sports. The Championship was filmed for broadcast later this year on Sportsman Channel and Pursuit Network.
Check Out The New Compact Stubby Grips From Wilcox
Monday, November 10th, 2014We checked out the new stubby Wilcox grips at AUSA. In addition to the folding option, the grips are hollow with cap. Finally, as is expected, you can attach switches to the grips.
Newington, NH—Wilcox Industries is introducing two new weapon mounted vertical grips that are designed with the same quality of their originally designed grips but only half the length. The new Stubby Grips are designed to fit comfortably in your hands while attached to any 1913/STANAG style weapon rail. The Stubby Grip comes in both a standard fixed vertical and folding para model design. Wilcox Stubby Grips are perfect for scenarios when compactness, ruggedness and streamlining of the weapon are a must.
The Para Stubby Grip features a hinged mechanism that allows it to fold up against the rail. This feature allows for streamlining of the weapon during dynamic operations and also eliminates the need to remove the grip for stowage. The Steady Stubby Grip is also available in a standard fixed vertical grip.
The grips feature a thumbscrew mounting system that allows for easy and sturdy mounting on any standard 1913-MIL-Spec Rail. Both versions of grips are made of lightweight and robust aerospace grade aluminum that is Type III anodized and features a molded polymer sleeve, which ensures a secure grip during severe operational and environmental conditions.
The Para Stubby is 4.0 inches long and weighs .410 lb. while the Steady Stubby is 3.25 inches long and .245 lbs. Please contact Wilcox Industries at www.wilcoxind.com or 603-4311331 for ordering and pricing information.
