2021 SOC-F Sporting Clays Fundraiser

Tuesday, April 6th, 2021

I attended the 2021 Special Operations Care Fund Sporting Clays Fundraiser. I ran into a whole slew of friends including Ivan who runs Kitbadger. He created a video and I asked if I could share it.

SOC-F is a non-profit which supports current and former SOF Personnel and their Families through targeted, novel medical treatment, addiction recovery, intensive marital counseling and a Gold-Star Kids Camp.

With all of their board serving as volunteers and no overhead, SOC-F is the most effective charitable organization we have been worked with and at the top of our donation list each year.

Lipsey’s Donates $10K to Walk The Talk America (WTTA)

Wednesday, January 13th, 2021

Lipsey’s®, a leading national firearms distributor, donates to help WTTA further its mission to bridge the gap between mental health awareness and the firearms industry.

Las Vegas, Nev. (January 2020) – Walk The Talk America (WTTA), a non-profit organization designed to bridge the gap between the firearms industry and owners and the mental health industry, is honored to have received a generous donation of $10K from one of America’s leading firearms distributors, Lipsey’s®.

WTTA was founded and launched three years ago by industry veteran Michael Sodini after an impromptu conversation with an individual regarding how firearms companies deal with school shootings, suicides, and other gun violence. Sodini realized that there was a need to bring the firearms industry together with those working in the mental health profession to stop the cycle of blame and finger-pointing and begin a conversation leading to more understanding on both sides.

Lipsey’s was founded in 1953 as a wholesale hunting and fishing distributor. Since then, Lipsey’s has remained dedicated to providing customers with superior service and attention and today is one of the largest independently owned, single location firearms distributors in the US.

“Lipsey’s has been a partner with Walk the Talk America since its inception,” Laurie Aronson, President and CEO of Lipsey’s, commented. “Their organization is making positive strides towards closing that bridge in addressing mental health and firearms.”

“We are very thankful to have the support of large distributors like Lipsey’s join our mission,” Sodini added. “With every donation, WTTA can provide more tools and resources like training instruction, online and downloadable information for individuals, companies, and retailers. It is our goal to bring together not only the firearms industry and mental health resources, but to make it available to all firearms owners.”

Now on Kickstarter – CIZOR, a Tungsten Carbide Cutting Tool for Every Day Use

Thursday, December 31st, 2020

CIZOR is made from pulverized, recycled tungsten carbide cutting tools. It features a cutting end and a conical end which can be used to break glass. Tungsten carbide is an extremely strong material and the CIZOR is sharpened to a razor edge.

Developed as a utility tool, CIZOR can be used with an included aluminum stand.

It is offered in two sizes. The larger variant is the same length as a disposable Bic pen.

Below are both sizes as kits.

Note that only the small CIZOR comes with a silicon cap. Inside the silicon cap is an aluminum cup which prevents the blade from cutting right through the silicon.

For more information, visit www.kickstarter.com/projects/sanderbakker/cizor-a-tungsten-carbide-cutting-tool-for-every-day-use.
