In Memoriam – Don Russell Fell

Tuesday, January 11th, 2022

Today we honor Don Russell Fell who passed away on January 7th.

At the age of 15 he founded FellFab, which in the subsequent seven decades has grown into a textile manufacturing operation spanning two nations with four locations. A long time supplier of sewn goods to the Canadian military, his efforts helped keep soft goods jobs in Canada.

Friends say he was driven and hardnosed, but also a very compassionate man.

May He Rest In Peace.   

Direct Action on SHOT Show 2022

Tuesday, January 11th, 2022

Direct Action brand – known from producing high quality combat equipment for special forces – will be showing in Las Vegas an ultralight BEARCAT plate carrier and other flagship products. #Go Loud!

Experience Based Gear – this motto will welcome everyone that will come to DIRECT ACTION #31203 booth at The Venetian Expo Level 2. Newest ultralight BEARCAT plate carrier will be shown together with AR Triple Rifle Flap, light cummerbund and UPLT. There will also be a SPITFIRE MKII plate carrier, presented in a bit heavier, battle configuration with universal rifle flap and SPRC cummerbund. Besides the equipment in Multicam Camouflage there will dominate Ranger Green wares – returning to Military and Law Enforcement and the immortal M81.

Equipment as a system – No two mission are the same, so Direct Action relies on modular configuration of equipment elements. The BEARCAT or SPITFIRE MKII plate carriers are the base and all the elements from cummerbund to pouches, backpacks and the latest medical pouch are compatible with each other.

Here, the Polish brand draws on the battlefield experience of its creators when designing combat gear, as well as the most durable materials and rigorous quality control processes.  

Please join us at the DIRECT ACTION booth #31203 at The Venetian Expo Level 2.

SIGHTRON Announces the New S6 1-6×24 30mm & 34mm Riflescopes

Tuesday, January 11th, 2022

Youngsville, NC- January 11, 2022 – SIGHTRON, one of the world’s most innovative optical observation and aiming device companies, is proud to announce the launch of the new S6 1-6×24 one inch riflescope. The new S6 1-6×24 targets the Low Power Variable Optics (LPVO) tactical market with premium full-featured second focal plane (SFP) and first focal plane (FFP) riflescopes.

The SIGHTRON S6 1-6×24 employs premium Japanese glass, new optical designs, and its proprietary MC-777 multicoating technology to set a new standard in clarity, light transmission, color accuracy, and sharpness. An excellent eye relief and a forgiving eye box provide fast target acquisition and easy monitoring of your surroundings. The 30mm SFP and 34mm FFP models use rugged and lightweight aircraft aluminum tubes with wide, capped, and low-profile windage and elevation turrets for a great look and superior performance. The turrets are resettable to zero with 140 MOA (SFP) / 35 MRAD (FFP) adjustments for the most extreme shooting conditions. SIGHTRON’s exclusive ExacTrack erector tube system provides constant, positive and flush contact that eliminates drift at any windage and elevation adjustment.

The daylight-bright illuminated center dot on the new IR4A and LRT reticles provides versatile, close-quarters, red-dot sight functionality. The low-profile illumination dial on the left side of the scope offers 11 intensity levels with an off-position between each setting. The scopes are O-ring sealed and purged with nitrogen gas for waterproof and fog proof performance.

The SIGHTRON S6 1-6×24 riflescopes are an excellent choice for AR platforms and offer hunters, 3-gun competitors, and modern sporting rifle shooters a new high-performance option for their medium-range tactical needs. S6 riflescopes have the SIGHTRON’s Lifetime Performance Guarantee that is backed by a team of skilled technicians. If you ever have an issue, they will get your scope working as it should or they will replace it, no charge.

One-piece Aluminum Tube 11-Position Illumination Dial

MC-777 Multicoating Technology Waterproof & Fog proof

New IR4A & LRT Reticles 30mm SFP & 34mm FFP Options

Introducing HUXWRX Safety Co

Tuesday, January 11th, 2022

It’s official, HUXWRX Safety Co has officially launched. Building on the success of OSS Suppressors, HUXWRX Safety Company is a human exposure workshop dedicated to building products that are optimized for the safety and health of their customers without compromising efficiency or performance.

To explain why this happened, let’s turn to a statement released today by the company:

Signature reduction and user safety have always been at the forefront of our mission. in 2020, OSS began testing our patented flow-through™ suppressors against traditional baffle suppressors for toxic blowback. toxic blowback primarily consists of carbon monoxide, hydrogen cyanide, and ammonia. on average, the amount of toxic gas that was being emitted back at the shooter’s face from a traditional baffle suppressor was 265% higher than with a flow-through™ suppressor.

Furthermore, they remain committed to American manufacturing, building all of their suppressors in Millcreek, Utah.
