GCI Outdoor Honors Fallen US Veterans, Donates Wreaths to Wreaths Across America

Sunday, December 10th, 2017

With a mission to Remember, Honor and Teach, Wreaths Across America coordinates wreath laying ceremonies at over 1,200 cemeteries worldwide

Higganum, Conn. (Wednesday, December 6) – GCI Outdoor, creators of portable, durable outdoor recreation equipment and furniture, is helping to honor fallen US veterans this holiday season with a generous donation of wreaths to the non-profit organization Wreaths Across America.

Saturday, December 16 is National Wreaths Across America Day where volunteers all over the country will lay wreaths on the graves of lost veterans. Founded in 2007 with a mission to Remember, Honor and Teach, Wreaths Across America will coordinate wreath-laying ceremonies at Arlington National Cemetery, as well as over 1,200 additional locations in all 50 U.S. states, at sea, and abroad.

“Supporting our veterans is very important to us so we’re doing this for all that have served and the brave ones who have lost their lives,” said Jeffrey Polke, co-president of GCI Outdoor. “The GCI Outdoor family would like to thank all U.S. veterans for their service and want everyone to know that we honor and respect all they have done to protect our freedoms! Peace be with you!”

With their headquarters in Higganum, CT, GCI’s donation will go to the nearby Connecticut State Veterans Cemetery and will help Wreaths Across America surpass their goal of 9,500 donated wreaths. Volunteers from the city as well as from the GCI Outdoor team will spend the day laying wreaths while remembering and honoring the fallen veterans.

Wreaths Across America started in 1992 when Morrill Worcester, owner of Worcester Wreath Company of Harrington, Maine, donated excess wreaths for placement at the Arlington National Cemetery. With help from Maine Senator Olympia Snowe, the Maine State Society of Washington, D.C. and volunteers from the local American Legion, VFW Posts, Wreaths Across America now enlists the help of over 60,000 volunteers who lay over 700,000 wreaths each year. You can learn more about their story here.

“We are not here to ‘decorate graves.’ We’re here to remember not their deaths, but their lives,” said Karen Worcester, Executive Director of Wreaths Across America.

Rosco Manufacturing Unveils New “Purebred” Precision Barrel Series

Tuesday, December 5th, 2017

December 4th, 2017: Rosco Manufacturing; a proud American manufacturer of high quality gun barrels is proud to announce the launch of their newest line of precision barrels titled The Purebred Series.

Rosco is a manufacturer that produces barrels for some of the biggest gun makers in the industry within their Central Falls, R.I. facility. Rosco has recently focused their talents and years of expertise to produce commercially available barrels that challenge what is currently found in the market.

Purebred Series:

Rosco Manufacturing’s “Purebred” series is a testament to precision and quality manufacturing. We took a step back to see how we could create a barrel line that would be a culmination of all the lessons learned through years of making barrels for our OEM’s. The result is a barrel that will produce 1 MOA results out of the box for any shooter looking to take their skills above and beyond.

Our Purebred barrels are made from scratch in our Rhode Island facility and start life as a blank piece of 416R stainless steel. The blanks are then rifled using our proprietary “Rifling & Polishing method” (which produces a lapped smooth surface finish) before they are mated to their polished Nickel Boron extensions.

Aside from making our own barrel blanks, and barrel extensions, we also hold ourselves to the most stringent quality and performance standards. This is the only way that we can make sure that we are producing a product that will perform time after time under the most demanding conditions. We are setting out to re-define the rules and we plan on letting our work do the talking. Preliminary barrels offered will be in .223 Wylde, & .300 BLK. Options to come soon are .224 Valkyrie, 6.5 Creedmoor, .260 Remington, 6mm Creedmoor, .243 Winchester, & .308 Winchester.

“With the success of our Bloodline barrels we felt that it was time to start raising the bar in other categories of the shooting world as well.”, “Our Purebred barrels will be an example of what can be accomplished when you take your time and manufacture a product using the right information coupled with keeping all aspects of production in house. We hope to put an end to the popular trend of farming out a product to then just slap a name on the side.” – Gabriel Cabrera Marketing & Sales Director for Rosco Manufacturing.
