Miami, Florida (January 10th, 2023)
The National Tactical Officers Association (NTOA) has tested and recommended the RTS Tactical Level III+ Rifle Special Threats Mini Shield. This shield is designed to protect law enforcement officers from rifle rounds and special threats. The NTOA is an organization of law enforcement professionals who test products and provide training for tactical operations.
The RTS Tactical Level III+ Rifle Special Threats Mini Shield was put through rigorous testing, including shooting from different distances and angles as well as being exposed to various environments. After passing all of the tests, the NTOA gave the shield its stamp of approval. This shield will now be added to the list of approved products for law enforcement agencies across the country.
Tested by a Police Officer from Iowa
I put the RTS Tactical Mini Shield through its paces and overall stood up to my expectations of being a quality piece of equipment. The shield is rated III+ (Rifle Special Threats), roughly measures 18×12, and weighs just over 11 pounds. The support/grab handle, padded comfort arm brace, and quick detach lower strap all feel and function well. I would not put this shield on the front of my stack, due to size, but definitely in my patrol vehicle for patrol applications and active shooter incidents. RTS does make two larger-sized shields in this model (14×24 and 16×30) that I have used on our team and they serve the purpose of team use. The size of the shield makes it easy to store in a vehicle. The only downside I found to this shield is it feels small when you get behind it.

The RTS Tactical Level III+ Rifle Threats Mini Shield would be an excellent addition to any LEOs kit. With its compact size, it fits easily into the trunk of your unit. The padded backing of the shield gives you the comfort you want when carrying a shield for any amount of time. The main issue I have with this product is its weight. It is much heavier than you would expect for the shield size, but with that being said it is something I would be willing to deal with for a product that could potentially save my life. With all of that being said I will talk about its performance while at the range. It was fairly easy to hold the shield and still be able to fire my duty pistol at targets. The shield also withstood multiple drops onto the concrete and the only damage that I could find was chipped paint. Overall I was extremely pleased with this product and think it would be a valuable asset to any department.

This Mini Shield seems to have a unique place in law enforcement which was previously overlooked as an asset by many organizations. Previously, shields were issued to special units and patrol was left out of the loop as there was no need for a shield, if a situation arose the special unit would be called in. A school active shooter in Texas changed that mindset. Regardless of the response that day, many saw a need to train and equip patrol to better handle those situations where you could not wait for SWAT. This shield does just that with its small footprint it can easily fit in the trunk of any patrol vehicle. The affordable price allows departments to outfit every patrol vehicle. An officer could buy one of their own as many of us had to buy our own plate carriers and armor.

Leander, TX (01/12/2023) – Designed for any rifle that accepts short action AICS footprint magazines, the new Black Box magazine from Black Collar Arms delivers 15 rounds of 223/5.56 or 300 Blackout from a smaller external footprint than our competitors’ 10-round mags.
“Our lead engineer, Tom, really knocked this one out of the park and created a double-stack to single-feed internal geometry that has proven completely reliable since literally our first prototype,” said none of us in real life, but it’s true.
When hunting feral hogs, having fun stretching out the limits of subsonic 300 BLK on steel targets, or putting in practice time on a 223 trainer rifle, that 50 percent bump in capacity means more shooting between reloads.
For added purchase in the field, the Black Box’s flat panels are ready for skateboard style grip tape. Laser-cut grip tape inserts are available for the Black Box in two textures, sand and rubber pebble, and in a few different colors and patterns.
Spring geometry and manufacturing is currently being finalized with one of the top firearm magazine spring companies in the U.S., and Black Box shipping should be well underway by mid-April, 2023.
MSRP is $49.95. Pre-orders are currently being accepted, and pre-order customers will receive a 10 percent discount plus, of course, the first Black Boxes out the door.
Black Box Features and Specs:
• AICS short action footprint compatible
• 15-round capacity of…
223 Remington
5.56 NATO
300 Blackout
350 Legend
Other 223/5.56 parent case cartridges
• Recessed fields for optional grip tape available in multiple textures and colors/patterns
• MSRP: $49.95

NEWINGTON, N.H., (January 12, 2023) – Introducing ROSE by SIG SAUER™. Developed by SIG SAUER in collaboration with Team SIG Professional Shooter and 8-time World Champion Lena Miculek, the all-new ROSE brand by SIG SAUER was created to help encourage and inspire women to take on the responsibility of their own personal safety through education, training, and community.
ROSE by SIG SAUER is a complete firearms education program that begins with a custom ROSE P365 kit including a special edition P365-XL COMP ROSE pistol chambered in 9MM or P365-380 ROSE, a custom ROSE Vaultek safe, and instant access to a complete step-by-step video training series with Lena Miculek that is supported by an online community to encourage, inspire, and grow female shooters to become more confident and comfortable.
“For the past ten years I have been exclusively a professional competitive shooter. While I worked hard for my titles, and am proud of all that I have accomplished, the most rewarding part of my career has been to help women overcome fear and get into firearms ownership. You could say that ROSE blossomed through these experiences and is now made possible by the power of the SIG SAUER brand,” began Team SIG Professional Shooter Lena Miculek. “ROSE is not only a pistol, it is a kit you take home with you to start your firearms journey and become part of a community where you are supported and can learn at your own pace in an environment you are comfortable in. I have heard countless times from women that they leave the store with more questions than answers and they want to learn. This is where ROSE by SIG SAUER comes in; the heartbeat of this program is education and getting you from the retailer to the range so you can start your lasting journey with firearms.”
ROSE by SIG SAUER is a complete program that helps women take the first step towards responsible firearms ownership. The program begins with the purchase of ROSE by SIG SAUER P365 kit that provides you with all the tools you need including the pistol, safe storage, and dummy rounds to begin your firearms journey and start your training program. Whether it is your first firearms purchase, or you are just looking to improve your skills, the full online training course, guided by Lena Miculek allows gun owners to get comfortable handling the pistol and ready for the range. The educational component is further complimented by an online community to support and share the journey as you learn and grow.
“ROSE by SIG SAUER is based on Lena’s years of experiences as a career competitor and in teaching women at every skill level, all over the country. ROSE was developed to be a complete system, that’s easy to understand, easy to learn and easy to use,” added Tom Taylor, Chief Marketing Officer and Executive Vice President Commercial Sales, SIG SAUER Inc. “For all that ROSE has to offer including the kit, the program, and the community, the entire package is a tremendous value that will pay dividends from the day you purchase and well into the future as both the ROSE by SIG SAUER brand and program grows.”
The SIG SAUER ROSE kit includes either a custom P365-XL COMP ROSE in 9MM or a P365-380 ROSE with (2) magazines, a signature ROSE Vaultek Lifepod™ pistol safe with built-in lock system and TSA approved, (5) polymer dummy rounds for safe dry-fire practice, a magazine loader, a personal note from Team SIG professional shooter Lena Miculek which includes access to the QuickStart guide and online training series.

For years, law enforcement, security forces, and first responders in the USA and abroad have dealt with the inconsistency of conventionally dyed nylon (“Piece Dyed”) fabrics. Additionally, these piece dyed nylon fabrics fade significantly just hours after exposure to UV light.
The manufacturers of law enforcement and police gear turned to HLC Industries to provide a solution.
In a cooperative effort, HLC and industry partner INVISTA engineered two new solution dyed nylon CORDURA® shades:
FORCE BLUE™
BLUE 9™
FORCE Blue™ is a very dark navy, common in law enforcement uniforms and vests.
BLUE 9™ is a traditional navy, to be used in numerous commercial, tactical and workwear applications as well as some law enforcement equipage.
Both shades will be added to the family of In-Stock solution dyed CORDURA® nylons (500D & 1000D) and sold exclusively by HLC Industries.
FORCE Blue™ and Blue 9™ feature the CORDURA® TrueLock™ Fiber and will share all the added benefits of solution dyed nylon:
• Abrasion resistance
• Lot-to-Lot color consistency
• Locked in color
• Resistant to UV exposure
For samples, please contact HLC, Sales@HLCIndustries.com
The new DAKA Waterproof Window Pouches are available in three sizes. One hundred percent waterproof, they feature carabiner pass-throughs (or lash points) and durable and easy-to-grip zipper pulls and strong RF welded seams.
Magpul’s DAKA Ammo Sleeve is designed for hunters who need to bring extra rounds with them when venturing afield, this sleeve is easy to store in a pocket or a pack. There’s room for a license or tags, and the rugged DAKA material ensures it’ll be used for years to come. The bi-fold design takes up 10 cartridges.
